I strongly believe in following your child’s lead when it comes to play and learning. Recently I have noticed Little Miss has shown an increased interest in counting as she wants to count her “rocks” every night in her rocking chair and all throughout the day you can hear her counting the things she is playing with. This is something that I have not stressed simply because she is 2 and still has lots of time to learn such things; however since she has been counting pretty much everything she can get her hands on I thought it would be fun to make some counting mats to use this spring and explore her use her interests in a new way.
She can count to 10 all by herself, but I didn’t want to overwhelm her with all the mats so we did one at a time and I let her pick which one to do. She now calls this our bees activity because of our bee counters.
These flower mats are black and white to save on ink and can be printed on colored paper/cardstock.
