Numbers and pegs!

This activity was so easy to set up – using just number flashcards and pegs – and amused both my toddler and preschooler. My toddler (currently 20mo) is learning numbers, so I thought I would introduce him to a visual concept of ‘how many’ by placing the corresponding number of pegs on the flashcards. He needed some help with the pegs as he doesn’t quite have the finger strength yet. It is a really good way to practice counting, improve those fine motor skills and improve number recognition. And it’s fun!
