Teaching Numbers to Kids

 

When To Teach Numbers to The Child?

It's a good idea to introduce your baby to numbers after he turns one. You can start with number rhymes like 'One, Two, Buckle My Shoe', 'Ten Green Bottles' or 1,2,3,4,5, Once I Caught a Fish Live. You can also point to simple objects or things you find in your daily life, such as an apple, two dogs, three chocolates, etc. You can make learning numbers fun and interesting for your child.

 

Play With Number of Toys

This is a proven fact; Children learn best when they play! Hands-on learning is by far the best way for kids to learn their numbers because they can manipulate an object themselves.

But you can't expect your child to recognize numbers just by counting out loud. Playing with toys helps them see, touch and understand what each number means.

C. Bath Letters and Numbers

D. Lego Duplo My First Number Train

 

Start With the Number Formation

You only have ten characters (0-9) to teach or correct. Think about it, only 10. Many of our children's names are over 10 letters long, especially when you consider writing their first and last names. The number ten is much easier to teach than 26 lowercase letters and 26 uppercase or capital letters. Also, numbers do not come in lowercase and uppercase. They are only one size fits all. This makes teaching numbers or remedial numbers much easier for the first time because they are all made up of the same shapes.

 

Use Number Rhymes and Songs

Number rhymes and songs are one of the easiest ways for preschoolers and kindergartners to learn numbers. You might not even know that you already know a lot of numbers. Here are some of my kids' favorites.

  • 10 Little Monkeys Jumping on The Bed
  • Ants Are Running
  • One Two Buckle My Shoe
  • This Old Man
  • Three Blind Mice

 

Point Out Numbers on Ad Boards and Vehicles

When you go out with your child, you can display the numbers on billboards or vehicles and thus help them to see the numbers. This will be helpful later when your child starts writing numbers.
