Christmas Counting for Preschool

These print-and-go math worksheets are perfect for kids ages 4-6. There are six sets of counting activities in this pack.

To prepare the worksheets, just print them out. It’s just that simple!

Using the Printables

Three of the activities in this printable pack have children counting objects in a set and choosing the correct number from a set of three.

Each of these activities help kids strengthen counting skills and number recognition.

Kids can use dot markers, clear gems, or crayons/pencils to identify the correct number.

You could also make this a hands-on counting activity by cutting the boxes apart and having kids use clothespins to mark the correct numbers. This is a great way to add some fine motor practice to your preschool lessons.

In addition to the counting activities described above, there are three Count and Match pages. Kids will count the objects in each set, and then, they’ll draw a line matching the set to the correct number.

This is also a great activity for strengthening counting and number recognition skills. In addition, drawing the matching line is good for hand-eye coordination.

How to Teach Counting

On these counting worksheets, kids will find images that represent various numbers from 0-10. They’re tasked with looking at each image and counting the featured objects – candy canes, Christmas gifts, ornaments on a wreath, and more.

To help kids count, encourage them to color the objects as they count them aloud. Or, have them put a mark (like a check mark or an “x”) on each object as they count aloud.

As they touch each object and count aloud, preschoolers will be practicing one-to-one correspondence – the skill of counting each object in a set once as they touch it and name the number.
