• What should I use for kindergarten math?

  For kindergarten math, you don’t need a formal curriculum—simple, hands-on learning works best at this age. Focus on the basics through play and everyday activities. Some key skills to explore include:

  • Recognizing shapes, colors, and sizes
  • Sorting and matching objects by different traits
  • Counting to 100 and starting to skip count by 2s, 5s, and 10s
  • Recognizing and writing numbers in fun ways (like using finger paint or tracing in sand)
  • Talking about the calendar—days of the week, months, and seasons
  • Solving age-appropriate puzzles and playing with blocks or building toys

  You can also help develop fine and gross motor skills through coloring, cutting, crawling, skipping, and using manipulatives. These activities support math readiness and reading skills, too!

  Every child learns at their own pace, so keep things low-pressure and fun. Use everyday moments—like sorting socks or spotting shapes while out on a walk—as teaching opportunities. Most importantly, enjoy the learning journey together!
