Have your child create their own seeds out of playdough and place the correct number of seeds on each mat. They can also create their own numbers out of playdough and place them on the number.
  • Counters. Instead of using the seeds, children could use playdough to create their own balls or seeds, or buttons, pompoms or any other counters or markers.
  • There is a blank coloured and a blank black and white pumpkin seed counting mat which can be used for counting numbers larger than 20. Use a dry erase marker or playdough to make a number for them and they can add the correct number of seeds on the pumpkins.
  • Extra learning with the blank mats. Once children have completed learning their numbers, they can use the blank coloured or black and white mats to work on simple addition and subtraction sums. They can use the seeds or create shapes out of play dough to use as counters. An example is – place two black and white seeds and then add three coloured seeds. Add the seeds together and you have five.
