We’re spending a lot more time outside now that the weather is cooperating but it doesn’t mean you have to stop learning. No need for paper and pencils unless they want to use them. Get out your counters, markers, stamps, or dot markers, and have fun with numbers.

Summer Counting Cards and Puzzles Supplies

All you need to print out these counting cards is listed below!

Printer
Paper/cardstock
Scissors
Laminator (optional)

I have the HP printer 8710 but it’s not available anymore. It’s still running well for years now. Look for another HP Instant Ink-ready printer so that you can use their program to send you ink cartridges whenever your printer gets low on ink.

Print the sheets out onto paper or cardstock, for more durability, and laminate them if needed.

Your child can use a marker to circle, a counter to place on top, or a clothespin to clip the answers on the cards. Mine likes to use glass beads.

The counting cards go up to 12.

I also have Summer Counting Mats if you’d like to get counting up to 20.

And if you’re feeling really creative, you can always create your own to go higher and higher in number. Let the kids join in on the fun and let them use their artistic creativity as well.
