What is Skip-counting?
Skip-counting is counting while skipping numbers in between!
Instead of counting 1, 2, 3, 4... we can count by 2s (2, 4, 6, 8...), by 5s (5, 10, 15, 20...), or by 10s (10, 20, 30...). It's like taking big jumps with numbers!
Let's Learn Together
1️⃣ Start small: Begin with counting by twos up to 10
2️⃣ Hop higher: Try counting by fives up to 50
3️⃣ Super jumps: Count by tens all the way to 100!

Parent Tips 🌟
- Make it physical: Have your child hop, clap, or jump while skip-counting to make it more engaging
- Use everyday objects: Count pairs of socks (2s), fingers on hands (5s), or dimes (10s)
- Sing counting songs: Many children learn better when skip-counting is set to music
