Not all sciences seem insanely interesting to children. But if you explain them with a certain amount of fantasy, you get very funny and informative activities.
The site knigorez.ru has prepared for you the TOP 10 fun ways to introduce your child to mathematics.
You need to start with the simplest thing - to study the numbers and learn how to correlate them with the real number.
Jumping gallop!
Stick large numbers on the floor using electrical tape. A young jumper will be able to quickly learn the numbers, a little later - ask him arithmetic problems, the answer to which will not be a word, but the number of bounces. Fun guaranteed!
Or you can look for numbers “scattered” on the floor, or draw them on the pavement with chalk.
Collecting numbers
To consolidate the material covered, ask the child to add up the necessary numbers by offering him a puzzle of ice cream sticks.
Counting cookies
Very tasty mathematics 🙂 Especially if you alternate and put cookies in your mouth. You can use any food that your baby likes - berries, fruits, sweets, bagels. You only need to prepare the sheets with the applied circles in advance.
Playing dice for marshmallows
This method will appeal not only to sweet tooth, but also to parents. You need to add as many marshmallows to the cup as there are dots on the bones. By the way, you can use not only drawn paper cups, but the most ordinary ones. In this case, no preparatory activities for the lesson are required.
Young nerds
Unnecessary pompoms or circles cut from an ordinary sponge and painted in different colors will help to grow a bright small garden.
Dress up the snowman
Themed math game for winter leisure. Changing the snowman's pre-prepared hats, the child will need to pick up a new caftan for him. Of course, you will have to spend time preparing everything for the game, but it will stay with you for a long time.

funny clothespins
Multi-colored clothespins can be used not only for linen! Draw apples on used ice cream sticks (or even thick cardboard), and numbers on clothespins. Have your child match the number of apples with the number on the clothespin.
watch wisdom
If you need help understanding the time, use this interactive clock. You can always peep and test your knowledge by bending a piece of paper.
Important! The colors of the hours and minutes must match the colors of the minute and hour hands.

giant clock
And a little later, when the child is comfortable with the hours and minutes, you can offer him another game: the numbers can be depicted as a child or laid out from clothes.
I WILL EAT YOU!!!
The greedy aligator always wants to eat more! This fun game will help your child get out of the fight with the insidious over/under.
apple fractions
You won't find a better teacher for learning fractions! It is an apple that is so easy to divide into halves and quarters. And the leftovers can always be eaten as a reward for academic success.
Musical warm-up
And finally - a musical break! If you're willing to endure in the name of arithmetic, use this idea. Assign a specific number to each key and ask your child to compose it using a musical instrument.
