Activities for Learning Math
1 Pom Pom Patterns
- Materials: Pom Pom Patterns cards, pom poms
- Game mechanics: Help the cheerleader find her missing pom pom by completing the pattern. Start the game by selecting a Pom Pom Patterns card. Point to each pom pom and ask your child to name the color. Say it again, varying your voice as you say each color (to help them identify the difference). Pause as you point to the final cheerleader's missing pom pom. Give your child a moment to think about what color comes next. Then, ask your child to choose the correct colored pom-pom and place it on the card. Repeat the same step with the other cards. When your child is finished, go over the cards again and discuss how each pom pom was arranged in the proper order.
- About the game: The Pom Pom Patterns game helps preschoolers recognize colors and patterns. It is an important math skill that would be useful in Kindergarten, and in daily life! And the Pom Pom Patterns game just made learning these skills a lot easier and more fun.
2 Round the Bases! Board Game
- Materials: Round the Bases game mat, 2 playing pieces, spinner, paper clip, pencil
- Game mechanics: Start by placing your playing piece on "Start" on home plate. On your turn, place the paperclip in the middle of the spinner. Put the pencil tip inside the paperclip, then flick the paperclip to spin. Ask your child to name the color or shape that the paper clip lands on. Help them move their playing piece to the next available space on the board with that shape or color . The first player to reach "Finish" on home plate is the winner!
- About the game: This entertaining baseball-themed board game can help your little ones enjoy learning about shapes and colors as you round the bases and score a run for your team. They can gain mastery of colors and shapes if they play and enjoy the Round the Bases! Board Game several times. Color and shape recognition is an important math skill for preschoolers because it helps build the foundation for more advanced mathematical thinking, including pattern recognition, categorization, and spatial reasoning
3 Soccer Shots
- Materials: Soccer Shots cards, soccer ball stickers
- Game mechanics: Practice counting and recognizing numbers with this fun sticker counting game! First, shuffle the cards and randomly select one. Ask your child to name the numeral written on the scoreboard at the top of the card. The number on the scoreboard shows how many goals the girl on the blue team has made against the goalie. Then ask him to count the corresponding number of soccer ball stickers and place them into the goal to show how many times the girl has scored! Repeat with the remaining cards.
- About the game: The Soccer Shots game is a very enjoyable game for preschoolers to practice counting and develop their number recognition skills! Plus, the soccer ball stickers make it more exciting too. Placing the stickers on the Soccer Shots cards can also improve their fine motor skills as their little hand muscles move and get the practice it needs!

Literacy Activities
1 Rhyming Rebound
- Materials: Rhyming Rebound cards, orange "basketball" chips
- Game mechanics: Catch the rebound and get the basketball into the correct hoop by matching rhyming words! To start, select a Rhyming Rebound card. Ask your child to name the word pictured on the basketball player's jersey, then ask him to name the objects pictured on each basketball backboard. Help your child identify which word rhymes with the word pictured on the player's jersey. If they successfully identified the rhyming words, instruct him to put an orange "basketball" chip on the hoop with the rhyming word! Continue until you have finished all of the cards and made all of the rebounds!
- About the game: The ability to identify rhyming words is an essential aspect of developing phonological awareness in preschoolers. And the Rhyming Rebound game can help your little one with it! This play-based activity will help them practice recognizing rhyming sounds and words, and still have fun!
2 Locker Room Letters
- Materials: Locker Room Letters game mat, jersey cards
- Game mechanics: Learn about letters as you help the players hang up their jerseys by putting them in the correct locker! Start the Locker Room Letters game by randomly selecting a jersey card. Let your child examine the jersey card. If he/she can name the letter on the jersey, ask him to name it or assist him if he's not yet familiar with it. Then, tell him/her to find the matching locker on the game mat. Another way to play the Locker Room Letters game (but a more difficult and challenging one) is by finding the matching letter through sounds! You examine the jersey card without revealing it to your child. Identify the letter's sound and let your child find the locker with the displayed letter that creates that same sound. Then, ask your child to place the jersey card in the correct locker with the corresponding letter. Continue putting the jerseys away in their lockers until they are all in their correct spot!
- About the game: The Locker Room Letters game provides a fun and interactive way for children to learn about letters and letter sounds. By examining the jersey cards and finding the matching locker, children can practice letter recognition and improve their visual discrimination skills. Moreover, the more challenging variation of the game, where children have to identify the letter by its sound, helps to develop phonemic awareness, which is a crucial skill for early reading and writing.
