Learning how to count things correctly and recognizing numbers by name are important skills to learn and know. Here, we are playing a fishing game that uses a die with the numbers 1 through 6 on it. We altered the game a bit by allowing each child to roll the die, name the number they rolled, and then go fishing. This game also fostered the skills of taking turns, patience and following the rules of the game. Playing a game with your child is a great way to teach them many things at once.
