Counting Train Using Post-It Notes

counting train using post-it notes- toddler at play (11)

This Counting Train using Post-It Notes is super quick to prep and so fun for the little ones!

I’ve created this activity for Vik, my 2.5 year old. We’re currently learning numbers and counting with him so this activity was PERFECTLY age appropriate 🙂 He loved it, choosing the right colors and counting the train carts with the colorful boxes on top. This helped him familiarize with numbers 1-5, visually see their sums as well as learn the colors.

My 4.5 year old couldn’t wait to help her little brother as he thought about the numbers and each train cart very carefully…and slowly. Eventually I allowed her to help and the train was completed!

Materials:

  • Easel board white paper roll (or white poster board)
  • Permanent markers
  • Small Post-It Notes
  • Tape
  • Scissors

Instructions:

Cut a large piece of the white easel board paper and tape to the wall by the corners. Next, using your best drawing abilities, draw a colorful train with the permanent markers, matching the colors to the Post-It notes (matching the colors is optional). Lastly, write in the numerals, we did 1-5 and the corresponding number of “boxes” on top of the train carts (where Post-It notes will go).
