What you need

Paper and a large child-appropriate crayon.

Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.

Let's make it happen

  1. Draw a large apple cut in half.
  2. Add three dark marks for pretend seeds and count them one by one.
  3. Add another mark and count again, or invite your child to choose a new number.

Use drawn marks rather than real seeds; stay beside your child and put supplies away afterward.
