Paper and large child-appropriate crayons in two colors.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Draw a large unicorn face with two ears and a horn. Write 1 + 1 inside the horn and 3 - 2 inside each ear.
- Make a key: write 1 beside one color and 2 beside another. Count on fingers or draw dots to solve each problem.
- Color the horn and ears using their answers and the key. Add a mane or a background.
Adult stays beside the child and offers counting support. Choose problems that fit the child's skills.
