Ages 5–6: connect pictures with symbols. Ask your child to explain one choice, and revisit familiar examples as needed.
Connect number symbols with groups of objects, compare quantities and explore arithmetic through picture-based activities.
Learning levels are starting points, not assessments. These activities supplement learning with a grown-up; they do not promise school readiness or replace a curriculum. Take breaks and choose a level that feels comfortable.
