Playful Maths Ideas. 10 simple activities for Toddlers and Preschoolers

Follow us on Pinterest for tons of great kids activities and ideas.


Welcome back to TUESDAY TOTS

This week we are showcasing

"10 simple maths activities for kids"

These fun, hands-on activities came from last weeks Tuesday Tots linkup and most are suitable for kids aged between 2-5. For the younger children, focus more on the really open-ended hands-on play ideas like the sensory tubs and baskets and look at things like shapes, colours, basic size differences and counting small collections. As your child gets older, activities that are a little more focused like corresponding amounts to numbers, counting and adding larger numbers and basic measurement are great to build upon the foundations they have already learnt.
