Simple Number Recognition Game

One day my son was playing with dice from a Monopoly game and play foam numbers. All of a sudden I hear him say, “Mommy, I made up a game!”

When I hear the word “GAME,” I get excited. I think games are the best way to learn because they incorporate the three basic learning styles: Auditory, Visual, and Kinesthetic learning.

I sat on the floor with him and he gave me directions for the game. After playing the game with him, I realized it would be perfect to help kids with number recognition. Since we had a great time playing the game, I would like to share it with you.

Let’s Get Started!

Materials Needed:

• Dice (1-4)
• Play Numbers (Foam or Magnetic Numbers) or write numbers on separate pieces of paper.

Directions:

• Spread the numbers on the floor (1-20 if possible).
• First roll the dice
• Then count the number of small dots on the dice.
• The number of dots you count represents the amount of (play) numbers you hide around your home.
• If you roll a six then you have to hide any of the six numbers.
• The other person will find those six numbers and identify them.
• Make the game more difficult by using a timer.
• The person looking for the numbers will have to find the numbers within a certain amount of time, like 2 minutes.
• Next round have the other person roll and hide the numbers
• That’s all there is to it!

I hope you like this game!
