Weekly Learning - Numbers 1-10

Day 1: Songs

Numbers 1-10 & 10-1

Bird Number Song

Numbers with Planes (I paused the video at the end so we could review the numbers)

Counting Objects Song


Day 2: Activity

Counting in a cup! You'll need a cup and then find ten small items that will all fit in the cup.

Toddlers love putting things in containers. Have them count as they put the items in. If they are still working on learning numbers, have them repeat the number after you and then allow them to put the item in.

Ideas for things to use: pencils, dry macaroni noodles, pebbles, M&M's, etc. . . You can use whatever you have lying around the house, yet it makes for an easy fun activity for your toddler!

Day 3: Get Out

Go on a walk around your neighborhood or go to a park. Count 10 trees, pick up 10 rocks, or count 10 cars you see passing by. You can count anything. Just start counting whatever you see!
 
Day 4: Activity

Get a piece of string, yarn or ribbon and some Fruit Loops cereal (or you can use Cheerio if you have a skinny piece of string). Have your toddler count out 10 pieces of cereal and then help them learn to put the pieces of cereal on the string, counting each time you put one on!

Then they can eat the cereal after they are done if they want, counting as they eat each one :)

Day 5: Library Day

Here are the books about numbers we checked out from the library this week:
