Toddler Counting Activity

z

This simple and fun toddler counting activity is a great way for your child to work on number recognition and practice counting. 

Supplies Needed:

• Scotch tape
• Double sided Scotch tape
• Construction paper of various colors
• Ribbons in various colors
• Magic marker
• Scissors

Simply cut out 5 diamond shapes to serve as the kites and cut enough ribbons for the tail pieces. Tape one long tail onto each kite. Use the marker to write the numbers 1 to 5 on each kite. Secure a piece of double-sided Scotch tape to each tail. Each piece should be long enough to hold the "cross-tail" pieces for each number. If your child needs prompts for counting, use the marker to place the correct number of dots on each tail. (See the photo below.) Have fun counting!!!
