Suggested Activities
• Counting
LER 0780
Make a set of cards numbered from 1-9. Have the child place the correct number of animals on each card.
Use the words most and fewest. Ask, “Which card has the most animals? Which has the fewest animals?”
• Sorting by Color and Type
Sort the animals into color sets. For a young child, limit the number of counters to be sorted. Gradually
increase the number as he/she becomes more confident. Have the child compare sets. For example, the
child sorts 5 red animals and 3 blue animals. Use the words more and fewer to describe the sets. Repeat
this activity using type of animal instead of color.
• Sequencing
Select 4 red animals and 4 blue animals. Arrange the animals in a pattern for the child to copy. For
example, red animal, red animal, blue animal, blue animal, red animal, red animal, etc. Have the child copy
your pattern. Take turns, and let the child arrange his or her animals in a pattern for you to copy. As the
child becomes more confident, add a third and fourth color to the sequence. Repeat this activity using
specific animal instead of color.
