To review all of the numbers, colors and shapes we learned as we went through our Letter of the Week curriculum, I made some fun review games! Note: If you missed it, don’t forget to do the A-Z Review also!
Number Review:
Clothespin Number Review: Write numbers on mini-clothespins and then have your child clip them on to the correct number of dots!
1-10 Number Sticker Sheets: This download includes numbers 1-10. You can put stickers in each square or laminate it and re-use over and over with any manipulative of your choice!
Number Word cards: This download comes with the letters in the boxes like below and for more of a challenge I also added blank cards for each color word as well. Your child can match up letter tiles to each number word card. The letter tiles are included in the download as well, but you could use any letter manipulatives you want to spell the words. Includes 1-10 number words. The word tiles come color coded to help younger children, for more of a challenge you can download my black and white letter tiles.
Number Dot Cards: You can use these a few ways, simply count the dots and say the number, use a fun manipulative like mini-clothespins or pom-poms. You can also use dry-erase marker to trace the numbers.
Chicka Chicka 123 Cards: We cut out these small numbers & add them to our alphabet tree as we are learning them.
Variation: Laminate and use as play-doh mats, or cut out and use as number lacing cards!
Number Collage Worksheets: 0-9 worksheets are included. Glue something on each one, color them, put on the correct amount of stickers based on the number, whatever you can think of!
Number Tracing: You can either use with pencil/crayon etc, or laminate and use with dry-erase. We chose to put stickers along each number just for fun.
Number Hopscotch: Pick any letter’s Large Floor Numbers and play hopscotch!
- Call out numbers in random order and have your child hop to it.
- Have your child put the cards in numerical order.
- Put them in random order on the floor and have your child hop to them in numerical order.
Dice Number Game: This is mainly an assessment for number recognition and counting. You can either use with a dotted die or one with numbers on it. Simply roll your die and circle the correct number in box 1, then roll again, and circle the correct number in box 2 and so on.
Number Magnet Pages: I had a reader ask for some number magnet pages, so here they are. Hope you like them!
Assessment Tests: I use these with bingo markers or Do-a-Dot Art Markers. The download includes A-Z, a-z, 1-20 assessment sheets. I call out a number and she marks it. This is an excellent way to assess what your preschooler has learned from this year, and what you still need to work on!
Shape Review:
Shape Play-doh Mats: Laminate these shape cards and use them as shape templates for your play-doh learning time! Variation: Lay the cards out and have your child find objects that are the same shape and place them on the correct shape card.
Patter Block Patterns! I haven’t found any pattern block patterns, just the picture cards, so I made some for our shape review.You can purchase Wooden Pattern Blocks
Shape Tracers: You can use this a few different ways! This download includes 10 shape tracing cards.
- Laminate and use with dry-erase to trace the shape/word
- Cut out shapes for scissor practice
- Color or trace with crayon/markers/paint
- Place stickers along the edges of each shape
Shape Puzzles: Cut out each shape, then cut in half along the dotted line to make shape puzzles.
Shape Sorting: I used my Shape Cards from the Letter of the Week curriculum, and had we sorted our Large Buttons onto each shape card. You can also use the Color flashcards from the Letter of the Week as well for color sorting.
These cardboard puzzles came from Wal-mart. They were just a couple bucks for 4 of them. They include numbers and shapes along with some fun animal ones as well!
Shape Silhouette Match Up: Cut out the colored shapes, and match them to their corresponding shape on the outline game board.
Color Review:
Paint Brush Color Matching: This is a file folder Game I made for color matching. Instructions are included in the download, but you can see here how it’s set up:
Color words: This download comes with the letters in the boxes like below, then your child can match up the letter tiles to each card. For more of a challenge I also added blank cards for each color word as well. Both are included in the download along with colorful letter tiles, but you could use any letter manipulatives you want to spell the words. Includes 8 color words. The word tiles come color coded to help younger children, for more of a challenge you can download my black and white letter tiles.
I left the color words whole and just had her match them up. Later when she’s more advanced I’ll cut the letters apart and have her match them individually.
Color Puzzles: Simply cut out each square, then cut in half along the dotted lines to make into a color matching puzzle.
Color Mixing: Using these cards, we made up some colored water and then used smaller scoops to mix based on each card. You can see more here in my blog post:
Mama Jenn’s Color Mixing: Mama Jenn made this fun printable for a fun color mixing activity! Click here to see instructions and how we did it.
My First Color Book: If you didn’t already make this fun little book, here it is again! After printing, simply fold the 4 sheets of cardstock with color words on them in half and staple them down the center. I attached a colored piece of ribbon to each page according to its color. Then let my daughter cut out the images and glue them on each page based on its color word. (We did a couple pages per day depending on her attention level.) Afterwards we read through the book together!
Shades of Color (to be used with paint chips): This is a simple file folder game I made to work on matching different shades of colors. Click here to see the post for more details. You can download my color grid here, and I used a 1 1/4″ square punch to punch the colors out.
Zebra Domino Game: This is from our Letter Z week, but its a great color matching and logic skills review! I made these cards in several different color combination’s so you can play a fun game of domino’s that’s on a prek level. Simply match up the zebra colors next to each other to play the game.
Fun color matching puzzles from 1+1+1=1: I like this one from Carisa because it includes the color words!
Family Fun Night! Have an Numbers party! Using a jumbo 6 spot muffin tin put: 1 cup of milk, 2 grilled cheese sandwiches (1 cut in half), 3 colby cheese chunks, 4 grapes, 5 pretzels, 6 chocolate chips. Watch Leapfrog Math Factory!

I love your site and all of the wonderful things you do with your kids! Quick question…where do you buy your bingo dot stampers??
the dollar store has them:)
Thanks for all the downloads! I love them! God bless you!
Thanks love. I downloaded some of the number & color reviews for EM. If Kelly up above reads this…I found the do a dot markers at Michael's Craft Store. Sometimes AC Moore has them.
I have a silly question about the shape cards. I purchased your LotW curriculum a while ago( LOVE it) but I'm not sure in which folder to find the shape cards. I've been randomly opening the different folders and having no luck. Are they under a specific letter?Sometimes I just need to have my hand held, I guess. LOLThanks! =o)
Wow…great resources! I have two preschoolers and a soon-to-be K'er. I will be using some of these for sure, thank you!
It's great – here, all in one place. Thanks
Thanks Christina!
KELLY: I got mine from Lakeshore Learning here, but you can click on the link on the post and get them from Amazon etc. They’re called Do-A-Dot Markers.
Giggly Girls: I just sent you the link to download the extras, I think you missed it
Another great set of educational resources! Thank you for your amazing generosity, Erica!
Another great set of educational resources! Thank you for your amazing generosity, Erica!
If I purchase the Letter of the Week curriculum, does it include the reviews as well?
Seriously, you are the BEST! Everything that I could ever want, right here in one post! I am so thankful for you!!!
SarahALee: Yes, it does include the review stuff as of today.
Hi Erica,Thanks for these great downloads.Little Bro is very into working on his numbers and will love these activities.Just FYI…Wanted to also let you know that with the Letter of the Week Curriculum and I am assuming also with these numbers sheets, that regular Tiddly Winks can be used if you are somewhere without your magnetic dots and baking sheet.We were up visiting my mom and found that regular Tiddly Winks were the perfect size for the sheets. We found the Tiddly Winks at a children's consignment store for $1.50Have a great day!Colleen
Thanks Erica! Lots of great stuff here! I neead to get the printer all warmed up and ready to go!
Thanks for linking to the color wheel!
Thank you! You are such a blessing!
Wow Erica, you are truly just wonderful!
Seriously how do you manage to create all this stuff, blog it and share it etc etc…. WOW!I wanted to tell you about some awesome products we use for our homeschool. You may have heard of them, Discovery Toys. I signed up as one of their consultants just so I could purchase tons of school supplies this last December. I don't intend to use it as a business but I do get a discount when ordering. However, my discount will soon expire since I am not an "active" consultant. I would LOVE to offer the discount to you and would be happy to pass it onto any of your readers as well. I could email you a catalog or you can check out some of their great educational stuff on their website.http://discoverytoys.com/web/guest/home;jsessionid=13941457B379A8FECFF5511261CD04D2.wdadmin81Just click catalog, then USA. Then you can flip through the catalog in PDF format.Their "toys" have a LIFETIME warranty AND you can replace any parts that are lost. So if you loose a piece you do not have to replace the entire thing! I LOVE THIS! So here's the deal, IF you want to use it OR want to pass it on 
I won't be offended if you don't do either 
15%-20% off all Discovery Toys!If you do pass along the offer I will choose an order date so that I can place all the orders at once and not be bombarded with single orders, if that makes sense. You or anyone can have 15% off and if the combined orders of all who order equal over $500…Then everyone gets 20% OFF!! (That’s WHOLESALE price!) Of course each buyer would be responsible for S&H; chargesAnyways, let me know if you want to. Really no biggie if you don't 
You ROCK!p.s. our favorite things we use for school are…Busy BugsIt's a MatchThink It ThroughMeasure Up cups (especially for our tiny tot)Giant PegboardMeasure Up balanceBusy PetsBusy FarmPlayful PatternsMotorworks-for a fun workbox activity 
Marbleworks to use during free timeAnd then several different games that are a ton of fun(Ya we kinda use a lot! That's why I wasn't going to buy it all without a discount hehe)
What gorgeous materials you make! Wish we still had the printer (it was packed up by the movers last week and I won't have it for 3-4 months. The torture!) You always create so many wonderful resources. Thank you for all you do!Liesl
Thank you so much for the folder paintbrush game and for the animal colour puzzle. I know my 2 year will love these.Helen
thank you sooo much for this post, I love the number words! my daughter needs to work on them, and this is an excellent idea, using magnetic letters, thanks
Those are all great activities. The paint chip game is my personal favorite, since I think it's actually rather challenging. I know from so many experiences that usually my daughter wouldn't do any printable – she finds them either boring or too hard if they require writing. I think she might like a painting chip one though.
Thanks for all the downloads! post free classified ads
Hi Erica, Thank you for sharing your ideas! I had a question about your pattern blocks – what material are the ones you have? I am purchasing online and see that they have wood, plastic, and foam versions. Do they slide around on your laminated pattern cards(asking, only because I know that would totally frustrate my 3.5 year old)?Thank you!
TESSA: I have the wooden pattern blocks, I like them because they are thicker and just like the feel of wood. I believe they are the same size as the plastic version, not sure about the foam ones.Yes, they do slide around on the laminated sheets.
