Research on brain development has documented that the future education and well being of a child is formed very early. The majority of the brain is developed during the first three years of life. Research shows that early experiences and early learning actually changes the physical structure of the brain. Infants and toddlers are pre-programmed to learn but they can only learn from the experiences we provide for them.

Fish in the Sea Counting Game


Fun way to teach your child counting!
  1. Cut the lid off of your egg carton.
  2. Paint the egg carton blue. Set it aside to dry.
  3. Once the paint is dry, decorate the outside of the egg carton with foam sea life stickers. *If you don’t have stickers, you can cut sea animals out of construction paper and glue them to the carton.
  4. Write the numbers 1-12 on the inside bottom of each egg cup.
Count out the correct number of fish crackers for each egg cup. For example, count out 1 fish and place it in the cup labeled “1,” 2 fish for the “2” cup, and so on.
