Jing Xuan loves numbers recently, he is keen to play with the stacking rings and he has been requesting me to count the number of buttons on his clothes everyday! Since I still have some leftover round shape stickers so I decided to make some flash cards with numbers and let JX ‘count’ by himself whenever he wants.
I am not sure if JX really understand the concept of counting. I just take the opportunities everyday to count together. For example, while setting up for meals - "One spoon for daddy, one spoon for mommy, one for you! One, two, three, three spoons.” When my brother pays us a visit, there’s another spoon on the table, I will bring the count to four. I think as he grows older, he will eventually understand the idea that adding more objects increases the number counted (whereas taking away objects decreases the number).
I really love this easy made educational toy.
