Make Preschool Math Fun

Preschool math should be approached from the angle of making the task of learning fun! This is the best way to get young students excited and involved in learning. A preschooler is far more likely to remember a math lesson involving rubber duckies and colorful puzzles than they would a math lesson that involved sitting at a desk with a pencil and a paper.


Math Activities for Preschoolers

Find an impressive variety of preschool math picks on this website that will make teaching math to young students fun ¿ and impactful!


  1. Colorful manipulatives are a fun way to learn the fundamentals of adding and subtracting in a visual and tactile way.
  2. Dry erase charts are great for preschoolers who will need to have a few tries at writing numbers before they do it correctly.
  3. Math puzzles are another great way for preschoolers to see math in action and to understand how adding and subtracting can look.
  4. Shapes can be a fantastic introduction to the basic principles of geometry. Get preschoolers comfortable with shapes long before they'll need them for higher levels of math.

Get preschoolers excited about math by showing them how fun it can be ¿ and by helping them understand that math and numbers are everywhere. Once preschoolers understand on a rudimentary level that math is ever-present in life, it may prompt them to want to learn more about numbers and math as they strive to learn more about the world around them.


Preschool Math Worksheets

Preschoolers get introduced to math in a way that helps them start to memorize what numbers look like and how to count. Most preschool classrooms strive to teach young students to count from 1 to 10 so they can be ready for the more advanced math when they enter elementary school.


Teachers - and parents - should not have unreasonable expectations of the math kids learn in preschool. For many preschoolers, this will be their first introduction to formally adding and subtracting ¿ and this isn't an easy concept to learn when it's new! Instead, strive to give preschoolers a solid basis of being comfortable with numbers and feeling ready to learn more! This is a far better accomplishment than merely memorizing numbers. Even something like sorting shapes can be a huge foundation for a later appreciation for geometry and math in general.


Make math fun and you'll have preschoolers who go on to enjoy math as a school subject!
