Tips for parents

• Keep counters, blocks or fingers nearby. Young children learn numbers best when they can touch them.
• Ask your child to explain one answer out loud. Talking through Picture Take Away shows you where the thinking is solid.
• Set a timer for ten minutes and stop when it rings. Short, regular practice beats one long session.
