How do I teach my 4 year old to recognize numbers?
Teach children to recognize numbers by using fun stories or chants for each number. Practise sky-writing the number in air, drawing it in foam or other messy play substances, and by making numbers in craft activities. Seeing numbers throughout their play is crucial.

Other language and cognitive milestones your child may achieve in the coming year include being able to:
- Speak clearly using more complex sentences.
- Count 10 or more objects.

How many numbers should a 4 year old count to?
ten
The average 4-year-old can count up to ten, although he may not get the numbers in the right order every time. One big hang-up in going higher? Those pesky numbers like 11 and 20. The irregularity of their names doesn’t make much sense to a preschooler.
Should you teach capital or lowercase letters first?
Although children may learn the letters of their names first, we recommend that children learn capital letters first because they are developmentally easier to recognize and write than lowercase letters.
In what order do you teach the ABC?
When teaching your children the letters, you don’t have to introduce them in alphabetical order. You should start with high-frequency ones like the letters in their names. The letters in their names will have more meaning to them and give them more chances to practice recognizing those letters in different ways.
