Love these – our resident garden squirrel has run off with our acorn collection so going to have go out collecting more 🙂
Thank you for this free printable. The daycare kids and I just played this but instead of making number cards, we used playing cards. I showed them a card and they had to find that number on their "game board" to put an acorn on that number and tell me what that number is.
