Smart Snacks Counting Cookies Game

My Daughters are 3.5 and almost 6 years old. Sometimes it can be a bit of a challenge to find games that work for both ages. With the Smart Snacks Counting Cookies Game there are two levels of play. This makes it easy for you to customize the game to your players' skill levels. Both girls enjoyed playing this game. It held their attention for a fairly long time. I feel confident in saying will be one of our favorite family games for a while to come.

My 4 year old has been eager to learn and his main area of interest has been numbers. Although he could count, recognition was still a struggle for him. It didn't take very long for Ethan to catch on to the simple instructions. We have been playing using the cookies with the numbers facing up. He has to match the number on the cookie with the number on the spaces in the cookie jar. We will continue playing this way until Ethan masters number recognition. When he has that down, flipping the cookies over is the next step. That side of the cookie has dot patterns for the children to count and fill their cookie jar. Ethan enjoys playing this game because (1) it is fast paced and doesn't drag on (his attention span wouldn't allow him to focus for too long) and (2) he shows a great deal of pride when he recognizes a number he struggled with before. I enjoy the game for the exact same reasons.
