About this activity

How Many Without Counting? is a subitizing activity for children ages 4–5. Children briefly see a small group of dots and identify how many there are without counting them one by one. They then match the quantity they saw to the corresponding number. The activity develops subitizing, numeral recognition, quantity-to-numeral matching, and visual attention.

Tips For Parents
