Played go fish with grandpa

Math

• The child practiced counting and number recognition as they counted the number of cards in their hand and asked for specific numbers.
• They learned the concept of pairs and matching as they tried to find matching cards to make sets.
• The child practiced addition and subtraction skills as they kept track of how many cards they had and how many they needed to collect a set.
• They also learned about probability and chance as they tried to guess which cards their grandpa might have based on the cards they had seen.

One creative way to continue development related to playing Go Fish with grandpa is to introduce more complex card games that involve additional math skills. For example, games like "War" or "Crazy Eights" can help the child practice comparing numbers, addition, and strategy.
