Learning to count is fun with the Counting Cookies™ Electronic Play Mat This interactive electronic mat teaches and reinforces number identification, number sense, early addition and subtraction, and sequencing skills.
Getting Started BASIC CONTROLS ON/OFF switch – This switch turns the unit ON or OFF. ACTIVITY buttons – There are four activity buttons on the mat. Press each one to start that activity. To exit the current activity or start a new one, press any of these buttons. VOLUME switch – Adjust the volume to the desired level, from LOW to MEDIUM to HIGH. REPEAT – Press the cookie jar in the center of the mat to repeat the last direction. RESET button – The control RESET button is on the back of the main unit.
Activity 1 – Cookie Count Press the button to begin. Let’s count the cookies! Listen and count along. Start on the zero (0) cookie. As the unit announces the numbers in order, press or step on them, all the way to ten (10). When you’re finished, count backward, starting on the number ten (10) cookie, all the way back to zero! Activity 2 – Find the Cookie! Press the button to begin.
Activity 3 – What’s Next? Press the button to begin. Let’s practice counting. After the game calls out three numbers in sequence (2…3...4), try to find the cookie that comes next! Listen carefully. You may need to count backwards! This is a great way to practice counting skills! Activity 4 – More or Less? Press the button to begin. Now for a real challenge! Press or step on any cookie. Listen carefully-the game will ask you to find a cookie with a certain number (more or less) candy dots.
For example, if you step on the three (3) cookie, and the unit asks you to find a cookie with four more candy dots, you should press or step on the seven (7) cookie. Keep practicing! This is a great introduction to addition and subtraction! Note: The Counting Cookies™ Play Mat features a non-skid bottom, but players should take care when hopping or running on the mat surface.
