Counting Activities for Preschoolers

Build early counting practice through short, playful activities.

Five counting activities

  1. Count toys into a basket.
  2. Clap one time for each number.
  3. Count steps as you walk.
  4. Match a numeral to a group of objects.
  5. Build a tower and count the blocks.

Practice slowly

Touch or move one object for each number word. This helps connect spoken numbers with quantities.
