Counting Bear

This app is perfect for young children just learning to count. I love that I can customize so many things. My three year old can count by memory to 20 but was having trouble associating numbers with an actual quantity of items. With this app, I could break it down into bite size pieces. Instead of working with 1-20 or even 1-10, we started with 1-5 and added the rest as she got more confident. Great app!
