Mommy Monday-Preschooler Activity

Here's a easy and fun activity to do with your preschooler: Monster Dice Match.  To play I used Cheerio's but you could use just about anything.  Each player gets 7 Cheerio's and then you take turns rolling a die.  Whatever number you roll you find that same number on the playing board and put a Cheerio there.  There are a few of each number on the board but if you roll a number and there are no spots left you forfeit the turn.  The first player to use all their Cheerio's wins.

This game helps with counting up to 6, taking turns, and subitizing (looking at a group of objects and and knowing how many there are without counting each one.)
