3. Counting Frogs for Lily Pads

5. What Number Is It?

7. Before and After Numbers Game
Put down a lily pad and let your child tell you the number that comes before and after it.
8. What Number is Missing?
Line up the lily pads in numerical order. Have your child shut their eyes and then you take away a card. Let them guess what number is missing.
9. More or Less Game
Set up a lily pad with the wrong number of frogs on it. Ask your child to tell you if they need more or less frogs to match that number.
10 . Adding and Subtracting
Start with frogs on two of the lily pads. Then make up a short story, for example: 2 frogs are on this lily pad and they see 1 frog, over here all by himself. They all want to play together. What lily pad would they have to move to?
Note: You can give them a hint like: If there are 2 frogs here plus 1 more, how many frogs are there, what is 2+1? Let them count the frogs if they need to.
