The printable fruit loop graph can be used any time of year, or use it with the gingerbread house for a fun December activity! This is fun to use during a Gingerbread unit.
Prepare the Graphing Activity:
Print the Fruit Loop Graph and the Gingerbread House Mat.
Give children a cupful or ziplock bag of Fruit Loops cereal.
What to Do:
Just for fun, let children decorate the Gingerbread House with the cereal. Then have them graph the pieces they used on the Gingerbread House on the Fruit Loop Graph mat.
Have children count how many they have of each color and compare to see which has the most, least, or same amount.
Download the Graph:
Note: This is a free printable, just click to download.

Hi Lisa, Here in the U.S., children begin Pre-K at age 4. They begin Kindergarten at age 5.
I love you’re ideas Karen. Thank you so much for all the free printables. I wish I had found you sooner. Especially with the assessment process.
Thanks again!!!

My child has this as home work. Looks simple but do we glue the fruit loops to the house and then put new fruit loops on the graph or just decorate the house and use the those to stick on the graph and only return the graph to school?
When I do this with my students, I have them decorate the house with fruit loops, then they move the fruit loops from the house to the graph. We don’t glue them on the paper. However, I don’t know what your child’s teacher expected you to do — she/he may want them glued. I’d recommend contacting her/him.
