Larger Numbers

With some wooden cubes from Michael's, I made bear a game to practice reading bigger numbers.  I wrote numbers 1 to 6 or 4 to 9 on three cubes.  You can throw all three dice and line up the numbers rolled and read the three digit number.

Bear and I use two dice and practice two-digit numbers.  She rolls and I ask her which cube should go first to create the largest two digit number.  She arranges her die, I read the number for her and then I roll.  Bear has to decide if I rolled a larger two-digit number than she did. 



Simple.  Fun.  Learning.

    This is quite advanced for someone under 3, especially comparison of two two-digit number. It's amazing what kids can do while playing. Bear is doing awesome!

    Hmmm...Michaels. I wanted some blank die to do some math addition games. Those wooden blocks would work. I like your game, too.
