What the Expert Says:

Hello,

Use concrete tasks to help him learn to count, such as counting steps he is taking, times he can hop, rocks in a pile, raisins on a plate, etc.

Also, if you use song or rhyme he may learn rote counting quicker.

Visual cues also are helpful such as pairing a picture of the number with the vocalized word for the number.

Good luck!
