Numeracy Work on counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.             Idea 1: You can do this by throwing a ball or teddy back and forward to each other, taking turns to say the next number up.   Idea 2: Set a timer and start throwing the object between you (lots of people can play this game) if you are holding the item when the timer goes off, the other players get a point. I’ve attached some songs to help. Count by 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wwydguSKOU&disable_polymer=true Count by 5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_awKlEMyleA Count by 10: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYRTtwZGwj8   Remember: You don’t need to do all of these, if you find one way of counting your child is less sure of, focus on that.
