Create a 5-by-5 grid on paper. Write the numerals 1-5 in red up the left side and in blue across the bottom. Make a happy face in the bottom left corner. This is the starting place. Your child will count squares and move across the bottom and then count squares and move up. Give your child these directions:
Start at the happy face. Count and move 2 squares to the right. Count and move 3 squares up to the top. Place the block in that box.
Start at the happy face. Count and move 3 squares to the right. Count and move 5 squares up to the top. Place the block in that box.
