This hands-on activity practices skip counting, a key first grade math skill. But it's silly fun!

Does your kid have a stash of sweets left over from Halloween? Turn that pile of candy into a learning opportunity with this sorting and categorizing activity.

In kindergarten, your child spent lots of time counting things one by one. But in first grade, he'll need to be able to count in groups, especially by fives.

Show your kindergartener how to count to 100 by tens, and he'll get an adorable cheerio necklace in the process!
