The focus stays right where it should be... helping young learners grow in number recognition, counting skills, and confidence with numbers 1-20.
Skills Students Practice with These Number Recognition Activities
Preschoolers need more than just recognizing a numeral on a page. Strong early math instruction gives them chances to see numbers, count objects, write numerals, and connect all of those pieces together.
- Number recognition for numerals 1–20
- Counting skills and one-to-one correspondence
- Counting to 20 using visual supports
- Ten frame practice for quantity and number sense
- Number word recognition and number vocabulary
- Handwriting and numeral formation during tracing and writing tasks
- Fine motor skills through manipulating pieces, cards, and tools
- Visual discrimination while identifying numbers and matching representations
All of that practice helps build the strong foundation kids need before moving into more advanced math.
Counting 1-20 Activities: Llama
Bring playful number practice to your math centers with these Numbers 1-20 Counting Activities in a bright llama theme designed for number recognition, counting skills, and hands-on counting to 20 practice.
Preschoolers and kindergarteners get multiple ways to build number sense while working with ten frames, numeral formation, counting mats, clip cards, and simple write-and-show activities that keep practice fresh instead of feeling like the same worksheet on repeat.
How to Use the Bubblegum Counting Activities
Getting started is easy, which is always a win.
Step 1: Print the pages you want to use in color or black and white. Laminate the reusable pieces if you want them to last through center rotations, mini groups, or independent work bins.
Step 2: Choose the activity that fits your goal. Use the guided ten-frame mats for extra support, pull out the blank mats for more independent number representation, or set out the clip cards for a quick and engaging number recognition activity.
Step 3: Add manipulatives like mini erasers, pom poms, counters, or dry erase markers. Preschoolers and kindergarteners can show the number, count to 20, trace numerals, write number words, and practice matching quantities to numerals.
You can easily rotate the activities through the week without kids getting bored of the same routine
Perfect For:
These llama counting activities fit beautifully into all kinds of early childhood settings.
- Math centers
- Small group instruction
- Independent practice
- Intervention and review
- Homeschool math lessons
- Morning tubs or early finisher bins
