Numbers one through five are the easiest for preschoolers to count because they are able to do those on their fingers. Once we move on to six, seven and eight, it gets a little trickier. Today, we focused on the numbers four, five, six and seven. Using barnyard animals and a pretend barn, we hunted for those numbers hidden in our barn. The children identified the number they found, then matched it with the corresponding animal on the paper.
