Christmas Sock Pairs Activity

A fun way to incorporate maths into the festive season.
Cut out the 24 colour pictures of socks for children to make into pairs of Christmas socks. They can look out for the odd picture, that shows a pair of socks, rather than a single one, as a talking point.
Once the socks are all paired, children can use the sock template worksheet to create their own Christmas designs on the white socks and make these into matching pairs.
Children can look out for pattern and colour to help them with their sorting and matching.
There is a blank sheet that children can paste pairs onto or draw their own socks and designs.

For younger children and / or a practical element, ask children to bring in a pair of socks and create a class sorting sock activity!
