Ice Cream Math Game

Hi 30Days friends! I’m Katie from Sweet Rose Studio and I’m so dang excited to be here today as part of the Funner in the Summer Series that Mique’s put together. It is funner in the summer, isn’t it?

The hot days of summer make me think of yummy ice cream and with a daughter going into Kindergarten this year, it seemed like the perfect pairing to make a fun math game. I put together this sweet Ice Cream Math Game to share with y’all and, in my opinion, the best part of the whole thing is that there are *three* different ways to play it!

First off, you need to download these files:

Ice Cream Cone Learning Game Blank Scoops

Print them onto a nice, thick card stock and cut them around the edges. To make each piece last even longer, I’d recommend laminating them.

1. Number Recognition and Counting

For this part of the activity, have your kiddos stack the correct number of ice cream scoops to correspond to the number on the cone. Easy peasy, right? Younger kids might need help with this the first few times.

2. Color Matching

Each of the cones has a colored circle around the number and I’ve created a corresponding blank scoop of ice cream to match. Even the youngest of learners can complete this activity!

3. Addition Facts

This is the level that my daughter is working at, so of course I had to make these addition facts too! Each cone has coordinating scoops that have all of the addition facts for that particular number. I’ve also built in an easy way for parents to check the answers: all the scoops for a certain answer are all the same color.

Thanks again Mique for having me here!
