Number Activity for Pre-schoolers

The aim of this activity is to engage the young preschoolers' minds as they practice recognising numbers and counting from 0 to 21.

This fun stacking activity promotes hand-eye coordination. Who wouldn't enjoy building a tall tower and then knocking it down once it's finished? Most households have plastic cups and markers, making it easy to utilise this educational opportunity to help your child learn to count from 0 to 21.

By encouraging them to count on, familiarise themselves with counting backwards from 21, and explore the numbers that come before and after, you can also introduce subtraction. Simply remove two cups and ask your child how many cups are left.
