Many of you have indicated a need for sorting activities. This page is intended to serve as an index to assorted sorts throughout the site. It will also include new sorting activities that don't fit in other areas. I've been going through my old files (now that I'm semi-retired) and have found some things that I used a long time ago. They will still work for young children today.
