- Counting: The child may count the number of swings, slides, or other equipment at the park.
- Measurement: The child may compare the height or length of different equipment at the park.
- Shapes: The child may identify shapes of equipment such as circles, squares, and triangles.
- Patterns: The child may notice patterns in the design of the equipment or in the way other children are playing.
- Estimation: The child may estimate how many steps it will take to get from one piece of equipment to another.
Encourage the child to continue exploring math concepts at the park by asking questions such as "How many steps do you think it will take to get to the slide?" or "Can you find a shape that looks like a triangle?" You can also create a scavenger hunt for the child to find different shapes or count the number of swings they see.
