How to use these printable numbers
Print the printable numbers on card stock or laminate them for lasting use. Cut along the dashed lines, and sort the cards into sets. Begin with 0 to 9 and add more as your child learns, and use the dotted numbers for writing practice. The counting cards with dots help children link the numeral to the amount.
Make a game of it: hide the printable numbers around the room for a number hunt, line them up in order on the floor, or turn them face down for a memory game. Short, playful sessions help children remember numerals better than drills.
