How to Prepare this Watermelon Math Pack

Begin by downloading and printing the watermelon printable pack.

After printing the watermelon counting cards out, we got to work cutting them (this would be a great activity for the kids to help you with too!).

Then, it was time to start practicing our numbers. We laid out a watermelon number card along with the empty watermelon slice and some paper watermelon seeds (although buttons, real watermelon seeds, or stones would also work) and asked our little ones to place the same number of seeds on their watermelon as the number card indicated. They had such a blast!

We then placed the watermelon slice in a dry erase pocket (you could also laminate it) and used playdough watermelon seeds instead of paper seeds. The kids enjoyed using their tweezers to place the seeds on their watermelons.

It was almost as though they didn’t even know they were practicing their numbers! 🙂
