Free Printable Pumpkin Math Number Mats

Children can learn numbers, count, and practice writing with these free interactive Pumpkin Math Number Mats. Each mat includes a 10-frame, counting pumpkin field, and number and word trace or write section so the mat can be adapted to each child’s learning stage.

These pumpkin math mats are just what your child needs to get learning this fall so come download your free set. If you know me, you know I like to make printables that can be used over again and work for multiple stages so your homeschooling child or classroom students can all benefit from the same Printable activity. This set includes a blank pumpkin mat for discovery and numbers 0-10 that have a 10-frame, and a place to trace and write numbers (1) or number words (“one”). I’m sure you will be able to come up with lots of math activities and you can check out the ones I have below.

One of my favorite things about 10-frames is it allows kids to learn on their own. As they are directed to fill the frame and use one to one correspondence (one pumpkin per dot, one pumpkin per count) they will automatically end up with the right amount of pumpkins. 10-frames also helps children learn to subitize (recognize an amount by seeing it without needing to count). This will help as their math skills develop.

Preparing the Activity

Supplies:

  • Pumpkin Math Number Mats (Available to download at the end of this post)
  • Pumpkin counters (Pumpkin Erasers, Pumpkin Buttons, Acrylic Pumpkins
  • Pencil or Dry Erase Pocket and Washable Dry-Erase Fine Line Markers (optional) I like to put our printables in a dry erase pocket or laminate them and use washable dry erase markers on the lamination. It allows kids the chance to practice over and over again. We have found that the regular dry erase markers do not always erase like they are supposed to which is why we recommend the washable kind.

Free Printable Pumpkin Math Number Mats Kids Activity (#Math #Preschool #kindergarten #kidsactivity)

Counting Pumpkins on 10-frames

Using the 10-frames section, encourage your child to place pumpkins on each black circle on the frame. The empty circles should remain blank. As they place them one-by-one they can count or just place them on. The 10-frames give them a self-correcting way to learn because they don’t have to be told how many pumpkins they need, they can just place the right amount on the frame.

Counting Pumpkins in the Pumpkin Patch

This section can be done two ways.

Pumpkins on the 10-Frames: Encourage your child to move each pumpkin one at a time from the 10-frame to the pumpkin patch.

Pumpkins in the Pumpkin Patch: Encourage your child to count the pumpkins in the pumpkin patch and move them to the 10-frames.

Tracing and Writing Numbers

Encourage your child to trace the number and then write it on the line provided to the right. If your child isn’t ready to write you should skip this part to avoid frustration. If your child can trace, but not write the number on their own I would skip the blank line on the right or you can write the number and have them trace it again.

Tracing and Writing Number Words

Encourage your child to read the number word and then trace and write it. Again, adapt this part if your child is not ready to write letters. You can always do this activity again and add skills that were previously skipped when your child is ready.

  • We live in a place where the growing season starts later because of the weather. To make sure we have plants ready, we planted some seeds to grow indoors until we can transfer them outside in our garden box. This was such a fun activity, and within a week we already had some seeds starting to grow.
  • Sometimes you just need a fun kid activity but have had no time to prep. Your in luck, because today I have an easy sensory art activity that can be ready in a flash and is great for multiple ages. Painting on a cloud of puffy white shaving cream is a wonderful experience!
  • These little bugs took no time at all to make and are a pretty self-guided craft for kids. Little Tiger finished chopping potatoes while helping me make dinner and found our bags full of lids on the counter (3 bags to be exact–no lid gets left behind in our house :). Before long I looked over and there were 3 bugs staring back at me and no mess in sight! Since the little bugs sitting on my counter make me smile when I look at them I thought you should have some too.
  • This activity helps kids learn to count to 100, introduces them to place values, helps with number recognition and number relationships while allowing them to be actively involved as they learn instead of just staring at a chart with lots of numbers which can be overwhelming.
  • We love stars around here so naturally one of our favorite things that live in the ocean is starfish aka sea stars. They come in all different shapes, sizes, and textures so we have provided you with a free craft template to make a big, medium, and small size starfish craft with your kids. We also show you how to take your craft to the next level by giving it texture and folding it to give it dimension, and if you want you can give it added color with paint. Each one will turn out amazing!
  • When this sunset Tissue Paper Craft is hung in a window it magically seems to glow resembling the beauty of a real sunset on the horizon. No glue or scissor skills are required, so this craft is easy to clean up and perfect for kids of all ages!
