Start by singing the Big Numbers Song!

Play number ping pong with your child. See what number you can count to by taking it in turns to say a number with your child. For example your child says 1, you say 2, they say 3 and so on.

If possible print off this sheet and ask your child to fill in the missing numbers. If you are not able to print off the sheet, draw some ice creams and number them. Leave some ice creams blank so your child can fill in the missing numbers.

missing numbers to 20 on ice creams

To make this harder you could use larger numbers on the ice creams. You could also use each row of ice creams as a new number sequence. For example start the top row 6,7,__ , __, 10. The next row could be something along the lines of: 15, __, 17, 18, __ and so on. Try to challenge your child a little!
