Counting is one fun game that kids get to learn when they are first introduced to the numbers. Teaching kids how to count could happen through lots of different ways and methods and it all starts with the regular counting of the numbers in their right order.

Learning to count starts at an early age and parents who are homeschooling their kids should pay attention to the bulk of numbers they are giving to their kids; they should start with teaching them to count from 1 to 5, from 1 to 10, and then they could go up higher and teach them to count from 1 to 20.

There are two different types of numbers; the odd and the even, and kids should know the difference and know how to count using every single one of them alone. The even numbers are those which end with 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 and kids could be taught to count in 2’s just like this video, which means that they will end up learning how to count with using the even numbers only.

Let your Kid Practice Counting Techniques

There are lots of different ways that could be followed in order to teach the kids to count numbers. In this educational video, the technique was as if they are playing on a xylophone and jumping two jumps instead of just moving in the regular manner. At first this will make it easier for the kids to understand and it will make it easier for them to grasp the idea of jumping from 2 to 4 to 6 and so on.

After making sure that the kids got the whole idea behind counting in 2’s – or in even numbers – you could then make a small quiz for them in order to know how much they have understood and how much they could reach. This quiz is not just about teaching them to count until they reach a specific even number, but it is about placing some numbers in front of them and then asking them whether these are even or odd. If your kids are giving the right answers with the not-so-big numbers that you are asking them about, you could then move a little bit further and ask them about some other bigger ones.

The most important tip to keep in mind while teaching your kids about the even numbers is to remind them that in order to know whether a specific number is even or not, they not only have to think about whether it could be divided by two or not, but also they should check whether it ends with 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 because this method will make it much easier for them to spot out the even numbers from the odd ones (Counting on from…).

Differentiating between the odd and the even numbers should always be the first step taken before trying to tell the kids to count in 2’s, because they have to know what an odd number is and what it means and also know what an even number is and what it also means, so never move forward and jump some important steps which you are supposed to know about and follow when you are teaching your kids to count (Odd and Even Numbers).

When it comes to teaching numbers, there are lots of fun methods and techniques that parents could depend on and follow. Here are some of those which we managed to bring on our channel:

– “Ten in a Bed” and teaching the kids some other counting rhymes as well (Counting Rhymes).

– Teaching the kids to count from 1 to 20 in the simplest way possible through getting them introduced to the numbers (Counting Numbers).

– Going a little bit more tricky and not just teach the kids to count in the right order from 1 to 20, but also teach them to count backwards (Counting On and…).

These are some of the games or methods which we believe are effective when it comes to teaching the kids to count, but as a parent, you could still follow the very basic rules and ways which might be just about using the fingers in order to count or just placing some objects in front of the kids so they could find something to count on.
