And finally…
Give your child real life maths experiences.
For example, look through a calendar and ask your child to count the number of days until a special event, weigh out ingredients together, measure furniture, ask your child to count out the coins needed in a shop or work out how much time is left before bedtime!
Playing board games together is another great way to develop your child’s maths skills.
