We used pencil top erasers for counters. You can count the amount of each color or just pick up a handful and count. You can use them for addition and subtraction as well!
The erasers come in multiple colors which is great because not only can they be used for counting but they can be also used for sorting, and making patterns. The Prince and I organized them into color groups and also tried some "finish the sequence" activities. He's not a fan of patterns, but he has at least mastered 2 step patterns.
If you have pencils around it's great fine motor to put the pencil toppers on the pencils. Memaw has several pencils at her house so we were even able to match the pencil toppers to the same color pencil.
Enjoy the activities! Who knew pencil top erasers and pencils could be so fun? :)
