Yes! I read them picture books on quilting--the latest was "Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt." They help me with math--(5th graders did that more than first graders). I talk to them about how much math is in a quilt--and tell them how it used both sides of my brain. They even get to play with leftover hst to create patterns. :-)
