I love that it is double sided because the students can start off with the side that goes up to 10 and when they are comfortable with that and ready to add and subtract with larger numbers, they can start using the other side.

The event ran from 10am-3pm with an hour for lunch in the middle. Out of the 6 stations 4 had a food snack. It is safe to say the cotton candy station was the biggest hit! The students were super excited to pick their flavor and enjoy the sweet treat while strolling around playing games and winning prizes. The cotton candy smelled SO good too, everyone was coming over to check it out including adults! The thing that really got me is that some students had never tried cotton candy before, this was their first time.
