Games

Some of Our Favorite Games for Preschoolers

Playing games helps children with counting, matching, social skills, and many other skills they’ll need in Kindergarten.  

-The card game Uno helps them recognize numbers, colors, things that match and are different, and how to take turns with others.  If a child becomes frustrated it may be that the game is not a good fit for their age.  Your children will let you know!  There are many choices, and the box will let you know the approximate ages the game is geared toward.   

-In the car play “I spy”.  For example, you begin by chanting “I spy with my little eye, something green.”  The child will guess which green thing you’re referring to, perhaps a car or tree, and then take a turn him or herself.
