There are a few tips that can help your kids learn how to count quicker. The first thing you need to do is to make children learn the numbers. Make them repeat the numbers over and over so that they know which number is which. The second step is that you place different objects in front of them and make them count with you. Let's say that you have placed four books in front of them. So, make sure that you count along with them, and loudly so that they can recall numbers over and over. You can also use various flashcards and different pictures to make them learn the numbers. By using various techniques, they can learn counting better and with more enthusiasm!

Children as young as the age of two may learn to count up items to ten. When they are that young, they do not really understand what they are doing, they are just memorizing the skill. These happy and really fun worksheets and lessons demonstrate how to go about counting items. They go as far as creating a precursor for the concept of addition. These worksheets explain simple counting and addition using the numbers 1 to 10. Activities include counting, drawing, tally marks, and more.
