It also helps children to develop the desire to learn and builds a solid foundation for success. Early childhood development sets children on a clear path for success in kindergarten and beyond.

Snowman Preschool Math Game

January 27, 2016 by Rhonda Gales 5 Comments

Today, I’m sharing parenting tips on creating our preschool math game. This week we have a snowman preschool math game that will help your preschooler and or kindergartener count from 1 – 20. The game helps the student learn by counting the buttons on the snowmen and learn number recognition by placing the correct hat on the snowman’s head.

How to Create the Snowmen:

First, you will need the following items to make these adorable snowmen:

black and white construction paper or cardstock
black marker or pen
scissors
pencil for tracing
orange marker

First, I found it easier to make a sample snowman and top hat to trace and cut around. I used construction paper from the dollar store to make the snowmen or printer paper will work too. Next, I folded a sheet of construction paper in half and than folded it again. I placed the sample snowman on top of the folded sheet and cut around it. I was able to create 4 snowmen at once using this method. Since you will need 20 snowmen, this method cuts down on time.

Additionally, it was easier to use the cardstock for the top hat and cut out each one individually. You will need a circle for each hat so you can write the number on it. I suggest cutting out the small circles for the hat individually. Afterwards, glue the circle on the hat and than allow it to dry before writing the number on the hat.

While the glue is drying, make the faces and draw the buttons on the body of the snowmen from 1 -10 or 1 – 20, depending on how many you wish to make. My 9 year old grandson helped draw the faces and make the buttons on each snowman. Once the bodies are made, write the numbers on the hats.

Last, teaching your child to count using this snowman preschool math game is not only educational, it will be fun. Making education fun should be the goal. The goal is to count the buttons and than match the hat to the coordinating snowman. If you have an older child like my 9 year old, let them count with your preschooler or kindergarten. Finally, it’s a great way to teach them to count without getting bored. So, stayed turned to our next snowman game. You may also like Kid’s Winter Crafts for Kids.
