Looking for a hands-on way for little ones to work on 1-to-1 correspondence, matching and counting? Check out this fun, pumpkin themed math grid game activity!

Grid games are a wonderful way for early learners to get some fun, hands-on, beginning math practice disguised as a game! (wink, wink) Grid games are a great way to focus on and improve 1-to-1 correspondence, matching, and counting! Plus, it can be an excellent addition to Fall, Thanksgiving, or pumpkin themed learning units!

We played the game using our Education Cubes along with the coordinating pumpkin insert cards. While using standard dice is possible with some of the game options, we preferred the soft, large Education Cubes because they were way more fun!

Game Instructions:

To play the game, roll the cube and count the number of objects on the cube. Using counters of some sort, cover the same number of objects on the grid until it is full. Super simple, but my kids LOVED it!

Helpful Hints:

I prefer to slide the game into a page protector (for longevity and reuse purposes) and use it on top of a magnetic cookie sheet. We would use our puff ball magnets as counters to cover the grid. This works well for younger children because you avoid having the counters accidentally slide around on the game board.

As another option, you could use dry erase markers and simply mark off the objects on the grid rather than using counters.
