A little plan for play
Open interactive activity →Add to play journal →What you need
A full sheet of paper and large child-appropriate crayons.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Draw a large tree and choose a number together.
- Add that many circles as pretend decorations, counting each mark.
- Point to each circle and count again, then add one more and notice the new total.
Adult stays beside the child; use drawn decorations rather than loose pieces.
