Using characters that are familiar to children I have put together a phone book to encourage the children to explore numbers in a different way during their play. Children use this resources alongside a phone so that they can practice matching the numbers on the phone to the ones under the picture of the character that they would like to call.

Small reports for the Elf on the shelf to send to santa at the end of each day.

To be used to support communication and behaviour for all children. Includes: Happy, Sad, Stop, Wait, Good sitting (carpet and chair), Good looking, Good listening, Quiet, Line up, share.

These number tracks can help children to recognise the number using the fingers as a representation. These can also be used along side helping hands (gloves filled with sand) to give both concrete and pictorial representations.
