Counting

Counting is one of the most important things you can do with your child. Count how many people are in your family, your fingers on one hand or two hands, toes too! Counting helps with addition and multiplication skills later on.  When you have mastered counting forward, count backwards-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1! Counting backwards helps with subtracting and even division problems later on.
