How to Teach Numbers to Preschoolers in a Fun Way?

Teaching numbers doesn’t have to mean drill and repetition, especially with curious, energetic preschoolers like yours.

Here are some fun, hands-on ways you can consider using when teaching your preschoolers their numbers.

1. Use Movement-Based Learning

Try counting while jumping, clapping, or dancing. For example, “Let’s jump 5 times!” This connects numbers to physical movement and builds engagement.

2. Incorporate Toys and Manipulatives

Use items like LEGO bricks, pom-poms, buttons, or blocks to help kids count objects and group them by numbers. Say, “Can you give me 4 red blocks?”

3. Make it Visual with Art

Use finger painting, stamps, or stickers to create a number collage. Try tracing numbers with glitter glue or playdough to strengthen number formation and fine motor skills.

4. Sing Number Songs

I bet your preschooler likes singing!

So why not sing classic preschool songs like “Five Little Ducks”, “Ten in the Bed”, or “1, 2, Buckle My Shoe” to help your kids memorize numbers in a joyful, musical way?

5. Explore Numbers in Nature

Go on a nature walk and look for numbers in your environment, such as on houses, signs, or license plates. Count flowers, rocks, or birds as you walk.

6. Use Themed Worksheets and Printables

Reinforce number recognition with our free worksheets. Kids love the visuals, coloring elements, and hands-on practice, plus, it’s an easy way to build math readiness at home or in the classroom.
