Gumball 1 to 20 Counting Number Activities

Learning numbers can feel more like a party when children use fun gumball themed activities to practice and learn practical counting skills.

For young learners, practicing numbers doesn’t have to mean staring at a worksheet and repeating the same exercises. Instead, making numbers come to life with colors, patterns, and playful themes can turn a simple lesson into an exciting adventure.

This printable set provides a variety of activities designed to help children learn numbers from 1 to 20. It includes tracing sheets, playdough mats, matching games, dot marker pages, puzzles, and wall cards.

The materials focus on recognizing number symbols, learning number words, and counting objects that correspond to each number. With over 90 pages, this set gives children multiple ways to practice numbers while keeping the learning experience fresh and enjoyable.

One of the best ways to reinforce number learning is through hands-on activities. Using playdough mats allows children to physically shape numbers, giving them a sensory experience that strengthens muscle memory. Dot marker pages add a fine motor skill element as kids stamp the correct number of dots. Puzzles and matching games make learning feel like a game, encouraging children to think critically as they pair numbers with corresponding objects.

Beyond worksheets, parents and teachers can incorporate number learning into daily routines. Counting objects during snack time, spotting numbers in books, or playing simple counting games with toys can help reinforce number recognition naturally.

Reading books about numbers and practicing counting songs are also excellent ways to build number skills while keeping children engaged. These activities, combined with the printable set, create a well-rounded approach to learning numbers that feels like play rather than work.
