Play a Matching Game: Numbers

This activity provides a fun way for your child to practice her
counting and number recognition skills. The materials are
easy for you to make yourself, and they'll provide hours of
fun and essential learning.

What You Need:

20 craft sticks
Black and colored markers

What You Do:

1. With the sticks placed vertically, number each stick


from 1 to 10 in bold, black letters. Then, on the
remaining ten sticks, make designs using different
shapes and colors. You can draw hearts, circles,
squares, fish, etc. Just make sure that the number of
shapes on each stick matches the numbers in the
other set. For example, on one stick you may have
one circle, on the next, two hearts, then three stars,
and on until you get to ten.
2. When the sticks are all ready, mix them up and give
them to your child. Encourage her to pair the
numbered sticks with their matching counterparts.

After she's matched up all the sticks, challenge her to take a look at the different shapes. Can she name the
shapes on all the different sticks?
