Mathematical thinking is an exciting activity for Early Years to gain fundamental skill that lays the foundation for future learning. Here are some engaging maths activities for EYFS and their benefits:

Counting Games

Use manipulatives like counting blocks or toys to engage children in counting games. This activity helps develop number recognition and counting skills. It also promotes logical thinking, problem-solving, and understanding of quantity.

Shape Sorting

Provide various shapes and ask children to sort them based on attributes like colour, size, or shape. This activity promotes shape recognition and classification skills. It also enhances visual-spatial awareness and critical thinking.

Measurement Exploration

Set up a measurement station where children can explore different tools like rulers, scales, and measuring cups. This activity introduces the concept of measurement and develops estimation skills. It also promotes problem-solving, logical reasoning, and understanding of units of measurement.

By incorporating activities on safeguarding, enhancing creativity skills, and engaging maths activities into the EYFS curriculum, educators can create a well-rounded learning environment that promotes safety, creativity, and mathematical thinking. These activities nurture young minds and lay the foundation for lifelong learning and development. Let’s empower our little learners to thrive and become confident, creative, and mathematically inclined individuals.
