Mechanical memory

At first, you can let your baby memorize the numbers mechanically. In other words, you just learn the numbers first and don't know the meaning of the specific numbers. Singing digital songs with your baby, reading digital songs, playing finger games, or counting things around you can help your baby learn and remember the order of numbers mechanically. Ballads like "You shoot one, I shoot one" and "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, go up the mountain and shoot tigers" are very old and effective songs for learning numbers.

3. Count with purpose and reference.

This kind of learning can be done: for example, take out two apples and teach your baby to learn "2", so that your baby can understand that the number "2" refers to two objects. At first, you can use two or three objects to let your baby know 1, 2, 3, and then gradually increase the number of objects so that your baby can learn more numbers.

4. Understand the meaning of numbers

Open three small bowls (or other objects) in front of the baby. When counting 1, let him touch the first small bowl; Count to 2 and touch the second one; When counting to 3, touch the third one and stop counting, so that the baby can understand that "3" means that the number of small bowls in this pile is "3", so as to understand the specific meaning of the number.

5. Add, subtract, subtract

Ask math questions in some simple stories. For example, take a small card of mother rabbit and baby rabbit eating carrots in the field and ask him, shall we count how good the baby rabbit is? When the baby counts correctly, cover two with another piece of paper and ask the baby how many rabbits are eating carrots.

6. Demonstration classification

Put some small red and green bowls in front of the baby, let him put the red one on one side and the green one on the other. If you want your child to get this kind of exercise, you can also encourage him to classify his familiar items: crayons by color, coins by size, and clothes by type and color.

compare

Have you ever tried to let your baby tell you what is big and what is small? What is light and what is important; What is soft and what is hard. In this way, you can teach him to learn to compare. For example, two shoes with different sizes; Three different building blocks, big, medium and small. Start with two, gradually increase the number, and slowly learn to arrange and compare according to size and weight.

8. Guess what

Guessing is a very popular game for babies and can be played at any time. For example, when you are with your baby, put a few coins in your hand and let your baby guess a few; Or choose a good fruit and let him guess how heavy it is before weighing it; You can also put 10 small buttons in a small bottle and let the baby guess how many.

9. Classification and sorting

Find some small plastic cups of various colors for the baby to play with. First, put all the red cups together, and then put all the blue cups in the back. Or put 1 green cup first, then put two yellow cups, then put 1 green cup, then put two yellow cups, and so on. Games like this can help babies learn how to organize and classify.

10. Practical measurement

Measurement is also a mathematical concept closely related to life. For example, when you are cooking in the kitchen, ask the baby around you to help you put a spoonful of salt in the pot. Or when taking a bath, let the baby pour a small cover of bath liquid into the bathtub; Or when cleaning clothes, let the baby take a soft ruler to measure the length of his pants and coat.

Tip: Play cards and easily recognize numbers.

Cut out some small pieces of paper of the same size, write down the numbers on the pieces of paper, and teach the baby to play digital card games-take out a card and let the baby say the numbers on it; Or you can say a number and let the baby pick it out from the card. You can also use playing cards at home. Each card has not only numbers, but also patterns representing numbers. Whether the baby is right or not, count according to the pattern.
