Teach Kids Numbers {Free Printable Activity} Preschool/Kindergarten

08/20/13 | Free Printable, Kids Crafts and Coloring, Preschool

HEREAs many of you know, I am a preschool teacher. I love finding new activities for teaching math concepts. It seems a lot of preschools are focused primarily on the alphabet.  I noticed when my 4th child was going through preschool and kindergarten, he struggled with the alphabet.  BUT, he was a math wiz.  He loved numbers and could figure out all the math problems I presented to the class.  That’s when I realized I wasn’t focusing enough on numbers.

I saw this activity years ago, and just got around to making it for my class.

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE 1-4 CARDS

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE 5-8 CARDS

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD 0,9,10 AND THE TITLE PAGE

Just download, save, print through your favorite printing place as 8×10’s, or on card stock at home.

You can purchase these mini clothespins on Amazon HERE. (affiliate link)

It’s so simple, but it helps the children with number sense and counting, not to mention, this is an awesome activity for fine motor skills too.

Your kids will spend a long time just learning how to get the clothes pins open and on to the number cards.

And, did I mention, they fit perfectly in a zip lock sandwich bag?  Yes!

Go ahead and print some for yourself, get some of the ridiculously cute small clothespins I got at a craft store, or better yet normal ones a the Dollar Store, cut the numbers apart, laminate (if wanted) and have some fun counting!

    This is great. I teach preschool too and I have noticed the same thing this year. I made a game similar to this but with dots and the fish rocks from the dollar store. This will be another great one to use. Thank you.

    Hi! I love this idea. I teach preschool special education so this is the perfect activity to help my young students with counting, 1:1 correspondence, numeral recognition, etc. I have a quick question. Would you happen to have this in black and white too? I want to save on color ink and print on colored paper instead. Again, thank you for sharing your ideas!
