Number Hunt and Erase


This was an impromptu activity that I set up for the Mini one day when he had a holiday from school. Our favourite white board and wooden numbers come together in this one. And to add in some sensory fun, a tub of toor dal/lentil was included. I knew the little guy would love this one... and he sure did!


We had earlier done a Number Hunt and Match sensory bin activity similar to this. It was loved by the little fellow that I wanted to do it again, but gave it a little twist this time. This fun little activity mainly revolves around number recognition and number matching. The objective of the game was to hunt for the hidden wooden numbers from the tub of lentils, find the same number written on the white board and erase them with the white board eraser! The sensory tub and the white board eraser add on to the fun element in this activity, making it a learn while you play activity!

How We Played:
  • I hid wooden numbers 0-9 in a little tub of toor dal/lentil.
  • I asked the Mini to sift through the tub of lentils and find the numbers one by one.
  • Once he finds a number, I asked him to find the same number on the white board and erase it using the white board eraser.

  • He repeated this till all the numbers were found from the tub and erased on the white board!
