Here is a simple math activity that you can customize to your child’s skill level. The dollar store has a great selection of cupcake liners and aluminum cupcake tins. I buy lots of cupcake liners because I love to use them for meals to hold small items and to add to my kid’s lunch at school for a fun treat. They can also be used for practicing math as we did here in this Counting Game with Buttons. We love to practice counting with fun games like this Counting By 10’s Game and Counting Games and Activities.

Supplies You Will Need:
- Muffin tin
- Muffin Cups
- Buttons or some other small objects
- Marker
When the kids were finished we dumped out the buttons in each cup and counted them to check their work. They were very excited when they had the correct number of buttons.
Fun and simple! We will have to do this! Thanks for sharing!
I love this simple idea! I can throw this together for my daughter to play with while I cook 🙂
