Tips for Parents & Teachers
Count everything — stairs, grapes, blocks, steps to the car. Real-world counting reinforces worksheet practice.
Let your child count at their own pace. Rushing leads to skipping numbers or double-counting.
Use the Easy worksheets first to build confidence, then move up to Medium and Hard as skills develop.
If your child struggles with a worksheet, go back to the previous subtopic for more practice before moving forward.
