Free Unicorn Bingo (Numbers 1-20)

Practice number recognition with this adorable unicorn bingo game!  We are working on numbers 1-20 and this game is so fun your little one won't even mind playing over and over. My little one LOVED it!

Download the free bingo cards below (there are 10 different boards). There is also a set of calling cards (color and b&w option). I printed my boards 2 to a page but you can print them as a full sheet.  Laminate and cut bingo boards apart if needed and calling cards.


Place the calling cards in a bowl or bag.  We used "rainbow puffs" aka mini marshmallows as markers.


First person to get 4 in a row wins!


Make it a little harder and let your little one call out the numbers.  This will give you an idea of the numbers they recognize and the ones they need a little extra help with.  I think I heard a "fiveteen" in there :)

U is for Unicorn Letter Craft


We are slowly working our way through our unicorn theme and loving it.  A new baby has made our progress slow but she sure is cute :)  
I always like to do a letter craft with each theme and this U unicorn is so adorable.

Start by drawing 3 letter U's for the face and eyes.
 Then decorate.  My little one just wanted to use markers today but it would be so cute to use construction paper or craft foam, yarn for the mane, and even add some glitter on the horn.  Every unicorn needs a floral crown so we hot glued some pretty fake flowers to make her one.
 That's it or you can keep decorating like my 4 year did.  She's quite the artist :)

Free Unicorn Counting Counting Cards (4+ ways to use them)


We are having so much fun with our U is for Unicorn theme.  Keep watching for new posts with more unicorn activities and printables.  I love today's post because these counting cards are so cute and can be used in so many ways.  I'm sharing several ways we've used them but I'm sure you've got some great ideas too! Lets just jump right in

To use: Download your cards (link at the end), Print, and Cut.  I suggest printing on cardstock and laminating.  My kids have been using these over and over and even jumping on them and they still look perfect.

The first idea is to use them as classroom decor.  They are so cute and your little one will love seeing and counting the cards. 

My main purpose in creating these cards was for a counting activity (its just like our feed the penguin activity) only this time we are feeding the unicorns. 
We used fruit loops.  I discovered anything rainbow is perfect when talking about unicorns. :)  If the card has a number 6 place 6 fruit loops on the card.  

After we played this game I found this fun cereal and we've played many more times with this one.

Use the cards as playdough mats.  Roll out the number or roll little balls and place the correct number on each card.


Musical chairs or Freeze dance: Place the numbers on the ground.  Turn on some music and dance!  Stop the music at any time and your little one finds a card to step on and then freezes.  Have them shout out the number and start the music again.  It's also fun to mix up the numbers and have them run to the number one first, the number two second, etc.  

Some Other ideas: flash cards, put in order from biggest to smallest and smallest to biggest, my kids laid them on the floor and played hop scotch (yelled out the number they landed on), build a number (ex. put a one and two together to make twelve).

We also used them for our unicorn number hunt.  This was a favorite!  You can find the post and printables here. The number cards are included in that download too. 


I hope you love these unicorn counting cards as much as we do.

Free Unicorn Number Hunt


Your kids will love this fun Unicorn Number Hunt game!  It combines hide-n-seek with some fun number recognition.  


This Free Download includes these adorable number cards (0-9) all ready for you to print and cut.  I printed mine on card stock and laminated.  We are using them for a few other activities so I wanted them durable.


 Hide them around the room and let your little one go on a unicorn hunt.


After you find them you can use this cute tracker to match up the numbers.  They can be colored, use dot markers, or crossed out.  You can also laminate it and cross out with white board markers to use it over and over again.

Once your done keep the learning going by putting the numbers in order, let you little one hide them and you find them, or use them as flash cards.  I'll be back with some more fun ways to use these cards so keep them handy :)
