I made this simple and silly game to help the girls learn to recognize their numbers through 25.
Each player draws a card on their turn and reads the number. If they draw a monkey card they have to act like a monkey (see 4th picture above!) We've also played that if a monkey card is drawn, everybody acts like a monkey.
If your kids are younger, you could play with only #1-10.
It makes us laugh, and it's very effective!

What a great idea! Surely a good way to help the little ones get ahead for learning their numbers! I will use it for my granddaughter, who is 4. Thanks!
This is great! I have been trying to figure out a FUN way to learn numbers and this may just be the answer!
Thanks for sharing!
AWESOME!!! We loved these cards. We printed them off and are playing this morning. Thank you so much for sharing this idea.
Very cute and fun...sandy toe
This is great! Thank you.
I think it must be working they recognized the number 10 today
My boys will love this! Thanks for the download!
Great idea! I was just about to make them a flash card flip book with the numbers and I LOVE this idea too!
PS - I just used your "Phone Number Song" trick - and my 3 1/2 twin daughters know their own numbers. I am going to work on 9-1-1 tomorrow! Thanks for the great tips!!!
I printed this up, spray glued it to a cereal box ready for recycling, and cut it out. We played it today. Jack (age 4) and I got the toy lemurs out, and let them "play" the game, I think it was fun and helpful. Thanks for sharing!
P~
I printed this out and we played over the weekend as my DD is moving into the twenties for recognition - she loved the game! :) What a simple, fun idea - thanks for sharing!
Printed, colored and then laminated them. They are a hit. My 2.5 year old loves them - we just do 1-10. Even my 1 year wanted to turn over cards.
Love your site - read it each day.
