Use these games and activities to get kids counting and using math and science skills.

1. Play Bingo, Uno and Go Fish to teach number recognition and help build early number skills.

2. Grow plants in sunny windows or a box garden and make predictions about their growth. Use the summer sunshine to create a fun and exciting science project.

3. Let kids put their chef hats on. Cooking provides a lot of opportunities for kids to practice math concepts like measuring while giving everyone a tasty result.
