Help your Reception child build number confidence through creative, nature-inspired play.

Leaf Number Caterpillars is a simple hands-on activity that encourages children to collect leaves and use them to create caterpillars of different lengths. As they count out the correct number of leaves for each caterpillar, they'll practise recognising numbers, matching numbers to amounts and one-to-one counting, while exploring nature and getting creative through play.

Simple to set up and easy to adapt, you'll receive a parent-friendly guide with clear instructions, practical learning tips and ideas to extend the play as your child's confidence grows.
