15 Fun and Exciting Skip Counting Activities

Skip counting is a foundation to multiplication, and you can help your child learn to skip count with these 15 skip counting activities. The first five activities focus on counting by two’s all the way to the fifteens. And each set counts up 15 times. (2 x 15)

We love singing! Music has always been apart of our family. We sing in the car. All of my kiddos clink, clanged, and danced their way through Kindermusik. And lately, we have found that we love to learn by singing.

This year, my two older boys learned to skip count the numbers one through fifteen, all by singing. But some kiddos don’t like to sing, some don’t learn best that way.

Skip counting is one way to build a strong foundation in multiplication. So for the next five days, starting April 9th, I will be sharing five fun, hands-on activities you can incorporate into your math routine if your little ones don’t like to sing.

If you don’t want to download each one separately, you can get them all in one easy download.
