Cait Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 throwing beanbags in a bucket or a hoop. Give children different quantities to use and then count up at the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 This week we had a bucket of lego people and a die which I had stuck stickers to with + and - signs over the spots. The children could choose up to 5 characters from the bucket to start them off. They then took it in turns to throw the die and if they threw a + the could add a character to their stash and if a - had to give one up to go back in the bucket. Depending on age/stage we may play until first to ten, counting how many, and how many now you have added one/taken away one etc. on the way. It's an easy game and one if you have a lot of counting/sorting resources or themed items you can do easily, and the children can play without an adult if they are able enough, or have a quick game with a parent before they leave in the morning.
