How to Get your Preschooler to complete Math Printables

Preschoolers do their own thing, it is very difficult to get them to sit.

But there are a few reasons why it’s important to get your preschooler to complete math printables.

1.      Early Exposure

It’s important for your child to be exposed to preschool math at an early age. Even if it’s not right they are learning the concepts that will be expected of them.

2.      Routine

Children get used to a certain routine.

3.      Kindergarten Readiness

In kindergarten, children are expected to be able to sit and complete a math printable. Why wait until school begins when your child has

4.      Practice fine motor skills

Completing math printables gives your child a chance to use a crayon or pencil and practice the fine motor skills necessary for writing.


What age can your child start to complete preschool math printables?

All children are different, but generally by 3 years old children are ready to hold a crayon. I start to give my children to crayons around 2 ½ so that they can become used to holding a crayon. Then you can start with easy preschool math printables.

What are some ways to make preschool math printables more attractive?

  • Use color.

I like the BrainQuest PreK book because it is filled with color pages, or a preschool math printable that your child can print like my number identification sheets.

  • Limit the time.

Limit the time to 10-15 minutes.

  • Don’t expect perfection.

Every child is different, I have twins and they are polar opposites. However they decide to complete the page is up to them, and I don’t expect a perfect assignment. My goal is just to get them used to the idea of a math printable.

 What’s the point of a preschool math printable?

The goal is to prepare your child for kindergarten readiness and to make the school transition as smooth as possible.

It is important for moms to help their children by beginning at a young age so they can become used to the idea.
