When it comes to math activities for kids, there are so many fun themes! This time, I created these fun cookie counting playdough mats! My preschooler absolutely loved making the cookies from playdough, adding little playdough chocolate chips, then counting them. Kids can count using this cookie counting printable in multiple ways.
They can fill the cookie jar with the right number of cookies, they can fill in the 10-frame with cookies, they can recreate the outline of the number, and the outline of the written number.
If you love cookies and are looking for fun educational cookie activities to try with preschoolers and kindergarten kiddos, these cookie counting playdough mats are the perfect activity to add to your math centers, or just to do when learning with a cookie theme!
