Counting to ten sounds easy, but kindergarten kids juggle a lot at once. They have to know what each number looks like, keep 6 and 9 straight, touch each object only one time, and remember that the last number they say tells how many.
Meet Abby and the Numbers 0 to 10 Game. She runs a toy cookie factory, and every machine in it needs a number to work. Kids find numbers to start the cookie mixers, count cookies to bake them, and count out chocolate chips for grumpy Bomzy.
Abby reads every direction out loud and gives a friendly tip after each try, so even kids who are not reading yet can play on their own. Every right answer makes something happen in the factory.
- An online counting game for kindergarten: read, find and count the numbers 0 to 10.
- Three factory rooms: the Mixing Room, the Oven Room and the Taste Test with Bomzy.
- Every cookie tray is a ten frame, so kids see five and some more instead of counting from one.
- Shape tips help with look-alikes, like “Six has a round tummy at the bottom.”
Why kids love the numbers 0 to 10 game
Every right answer does a job. An egg drops in and the mixer whirrs, a tray slides into the oven and comes out golden, and chocolate chips land on Bomzy’s plain cookie one by one.
Start the mixers
Find the right number and an egg drops into the mixer, then it spins and mixes the dough.
Bake the cookies
Pick the tray with that many cookies and the oven door opens on golden cookies. Ding!
Win over Bomzy
Grumpy Bomzy says plain cookies are best. Count out the chips and change his mind.
Kind help
A wrong card gently names itself, and Abby gives a tip so kids can try again.

What kids learn from the numbers 0 to 10 game
The game practices reading and counting numbers from 0 to 10, from the kindergarten counting standards (K.CC.3 and K.CC.4). Every number from 0 to 10 is asked at least once.
Read each number
Kids match a numeral to its name, like the 7 for “seven.”
Tell look-alikes apart
“Six has a round tummy at the bottom.” Tips like this keep 6 and 9, 2 and 5, 1 and 7 straight.
Count each one once
Touch and say each cookie one time. The last number you say tells how many.
See it on a ten frame
Five on top and three more is eight, without counting from one.
Zero means none
Zero is a number too. “Zero cookies! Zero means none.”
Count out a set
Throwing exactly 9 chips onto Bomzy’s cookie means counting out, not just counting.
Teacher tip: count real snacks
At snack time, put a handful of crackers on a paper ten frame (two rows of five). Ask, “How many? How do you know?” and listen for “five and two more.” Check off each step:
