Before a child can learn to add, subtract, multiply, or any number of math concepts, they need master counting.
These fun counting to 100 activities are all fun ways to master counting from 1 to 100. Some of these are fun games, others get your kids outside while they learn, and others help with their fine motor skills.
And, with every single one of these activities, your child will have fun while they learn.

By the time your child is through with kindergarten, they need to master this skill.
These counting to 100 activities will help your child master counting both by ones and skip counting by tens.
There are approximately 1 million ways to learn this skill. (Okay, 1 million may be an exaggeration,but there are still a lot of ways!) Choose activities that best suit your child. Try one of these ideas for practice at home.
