Exploring counting and numbers stimulates children's interest in the skills and concepts that are essential to understanding both science and mathematics. As children explore counting and numbers they are practicing important math and science skills.
Reading picture books and doing hands-on activities strengthen children’s math concepts and skills as you ask open-ended questions, encourage children to explain what they’re doing and provide many experiences with the same number or operation, such as doing many different activities using one number or making and counting sets with a variety of manipulative materials.
