Teaching your child to count through everyday play

Numbers are everywhere around your child. Just turn counting into part of play.

Count while moving

Count the stairs, the steps from the living room to the bedroom, or how many hops on one foot.

Count in the kitchen

Ask your child to fetch 3 oranges or set out 5 spoons. They help you and learn at the same time.

Count with songs

Counting songs help children remember 1, 2, 3 naturally. Sing along while watching Xíu Xôi TV.

Play with the app

The Xíu Xôi Math app has counting and more-or-less games. Sit with your child and keep screen time short.

Tip for parents: praise the effort, not only the right answer.
