Addition and Subtraction Picture Counting Worksheet
The worksheet asks preschoolers to add two groups of objects by counting the pictures, not digits. The child practices addition with picture counting, finding how many are altogether.
At age 3, math clicks best through quick, hands-on moments that feel like play. When parents turn counting into a long drill, many three-year-olds rush, wander, or get distracted.
Use this page right at the table. Point to the first group and count the pictures together out loud. Point to the second group and count those pictures too, then count both groups together by tapping each picture as you say the total.
This page is useful because it keeps meaning clear through pictures, not symbols. Building “altogether” now helps with later subtraction ideas, since taking away still starts with “how many are there?”
