Number rhymes and songs


Encourage your child to count through singing songs and chanting rhymes. Do the actions and count on those fingers and toes too to help reinforce the concepts.

Rhymes/songs:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 once I caught a fish alive (counting to ten)

Ten little Indian boys (teaches counting to ten and back from ten too)

10 fat sausages sizzling in the pan (concept of subtraction)

Baa Baa Black Sheep

Five little ducks went out one day

Ten in the bed

Five little peas

Two little Dickie Birds sitting on the wall

Ten green bottles sitting on the wall and if one green bottle should accidently fall...
