Count the pictures and write the number
The first worksheet a child can do before they can read a number sentence: a group of drawings and a box to write how many. The pictures are line art, printed as vectors, so they stay crisp however you print them.
- Animals, food, weather and vehicles a child can name
- Group size follows the difficulty setting
- A writing line under every group
- Matching answer key

What’s on the sheet
- Groups of drawn objects with a box to write how many
- Pictures large enough for a child to point at while counting aloud
- 4 to 12 groups per page, at roomy spacing by default
- A matching answer key
What each difficulty means
Difficulty is a real change to the numbers or the layout, not a label.
Gentle start
1 to 5 objects — the range most children can see without counting.
Just right
1 to 10 objects.
Extra challenge
5 to 20 objects, where counting on and grouping start to matter.

Counting sheets are really about one-to-one correspondence
The skill a four- or five-year-old is building here is not saying the number words in order — most can already do that. It is landing exactly one number word on exactly one object, and stopping when the objects run out. Children who lose track are usually counting faster than they are pointing.
That is why the pictures on these sheets are drawn large and spread out rather than packed into a neat grid. A finger has to be able to land on each one, and a child has to be able to see which ones they have already counted.
The child does not have to hold the pencil
Plenty of children can count a group of seven accurately and cannot yet write a 7. Those are separate skills on separate timelines, and treating the sheet as a writing test wastes the counting practice.
It is completely legitimate for the child to count and say the number while an adult writes it in the box. The sheet is a prompt for the conversation, not an exam.
Questions
What age is this for?
Pre-K through Kindergarten, roughly ages 4 to 6. Choose the gentle setting for a child still learning one-to-one correspondence.
Can my child do this before they can read?
Yes — that is the point. There is nothing to read except the number they write.
