Free Preschool Number Printables

While I’m not a big fan of preschool worksheets, I do like using interactive printables with the kids. They can supplement hands-on math lessons and let the children practice math skills. PLUS, number printables like those below can often be used in multiple ways. Multi-purpose and interactive is a win in my book.

I’ve broken the free math printables down into categories. This way, it’s easier for you to find what you’re looking for. I plan to keep adding to this collection, so be sure to save it and come back regularly.

Each link below leads to an individual free printable. You can get access to each of the counting printables through those individual links. To get the most out of this page, follow these steps:

  • Take a look through the entire list.
  • Make note of the printables you’re most interested in.
  • Click the links to the printables you want.
  • Grab the free printables through their links. Most often, that is near the bottom of each of the printables’ pages.

Okay, let’s jump into all of the free preschool number printables!

Free Printable Number Books for Preschoolers

First, we’ll kick things off with printable counting books. I love that these emergent readers can be used to explore both literacy AND math skills with children. They each come with multiple suggestions for using the books with your students.

Keep in mind, the printable number books can also be transformed into counting mats, too! As I mentioned earlier, I love printables that can be used more than one way.

Calendar Numbers

Next up in our collection of free preschool number printables are calendar numbers. You can definitely buy calendar numbers pre-made in many teacher stores. But I’ve enjoyed making my own for a while now. In fact, I have quite a few ready to share with you as the year progresses. Below are the sets I have ready right now. They each contain numbers 0 to 35, and they’re sized to be used with traditional or linear calendars.

The calendar number cards can be used in SO many different ways, with a wide variety of materials. Kids can explore number identification, counting, number formation, and one-to-one correspondence with the calendar numbers.

Printable Number Games for Preschoolers

Dice games are a must-have when it comes to free preschool number printables. Almost every child I’ve ever worked with (in preschool, kindergarten, and at home) has loved playing number games. You can use them to teach social skills like taking turns. AND there’s all of the math – subitizing and number identification, especially. All from one little printable.

You can let the kids color directly on these number printables, or you can make them reusable with dry erase pockets and manipulatives. Either way, your students will have a blast.

Oh, and I found a few more your kids might enjoy:

  • Rainbow Roll and Cover
  • Flower Roll and Cover Math Games
  • Watermelon Math Game

Printable Ten Frames

So many math concepts can be explored through ten frames, right?! Depending on how you utilize them, you can teach number identification, counting, left to right and top to bottom progression, making ten, etc. And they’re pretty simple to turn into math games, too.

The above have been some well-loved ten frames with my students, and I have more coming later this year. So be sure to keep an eye out for those!

I couldn’t help myself – I had to go find a few more ten frames! Be sure to add them to your free preschool number printables:

  • Dinosaur Ten Frames
  • Ten Frame Gardening Printable
  • Apple Ten Frames
  • Halloween Ten Frames
  • School Bus Ten Frames

Even More Free Preschool Number Printables

I suppose this is the miscellaneous category!? These are the counting printables that are a wee bit different than the calendar numbers, books, dice games, and ten frames I’ve shared above. That doesn’t mean they’re any less valuable as tools for teaching about numbers though!

And just a few more to integrate into your number plans:

  • Number Fluency Math Printable
  • Dot Numbers 1 to 10
  • Number Formation Rhymes

Now the big question is, which of the free preschool number printables would your kids enjoy the most?

Materials for Your Printable Number Activities

One of the great things about the various printables shared in this post is that you really don’t need a lot of additional materials!

Here are some items I recommend when preparing printables for the classroom (I may get commissions for purchases made through links in this post):

  • Printer
  • Laminator
  • Scissors
  • Dry Erase Pockets
  • Stapler

And if you’re looking for some math materials to pair with the free preschool number printables, I’ve got you covered:

  • Washable ink pads
  • Buttons
  • Pompoms
  • Crayons
  • Dry erase markers
  • Unifix cubes
  • Dice

Let me know what you and the children think after trying some of these printables!

Here are a few Counting to 10 activities for kids that will help you learn how to count and perform simple arithmetic operations and draw figures according to a given pattern in an easy and relaxed way. All tasks can be downloaded in the attachments at the bottom of the page. After that, print them on the printer, arm yourself with pencils and go!

These 10 counting coloring pages for kids help preschoolers learn math faster and easier. Children are very fond of such tasks, so they can easily complete them.

  • The first task is to count the number of dragons and then circle and color the appropriate number above them.
  • In the second task, 6 houses are given. Every house has a number written on the roof. The task of the child is to enter numbers in the empty cells in such a way that the sum of the numbers on each floor of the house is equal to the number that is written on the roof of this house. Paint the houses in different colors. And color the floor with the correct sum of numbers in a different color to distinguish it from other floors. (To complete the task, the child must not only know how to count up to 10 in the form of counting objects, but also be able to determine the composition of numbers - for example, 10 consists of 5 and 5, of 4 and 6, of 3 and 7, etc.)
  • In the third task, you need to carefully look at the figure that is drawn in the cells and draw exactly the same figure next to it. To complete this task, you need to count how many cells a particular fragment of the picture occupies and, counting the same number, draw a copy of the figure. Then the figure needs to be colored in an arbitrary way.
