Sesame Street: Lonely Number 11

Try This

Play I Spy with numbers around the house (the number four on a jersey, three apples in a bowl, etc.). What odd numbers can your child find? What even numbers can your child find? This activity will support your child's literacy development as they learn to recognize symbols (numbers written as numerals) and practice using vocabulary words (odd number and even number as well as the names of household objects).
