Gather groups of up to five common household items, such as spoons, jar lids, crayons, and blocks. Place the objects in groups of one to five objects each. Touch and count each of the items in one of the groups. Have your child do the same for that group and for the remaining groups.
You can also create groups by combining different types of household items. For example, you can place one spoon, two crayons, and one block together for a group of four items.
