Number Names Crossword Worksheet for Kids

Children ages 4-6 practice spelling number names — like 'five', 'twelve', or 'twenty' — by using numeral clues to fill in a crossword grid. This task bridges numeral recognition with word spelling, requiring children to think about both quantity and written vocabulary simultaneously. Fitting letters into the fixed crossword boxes also builds spatial planning and careful letter counting.

How to use this worksheet

Look at the first numbered clue together and say the number name aloud before spelling it out loud letter by letter. Count the empty boxes in the crossword to check that the number name will fit, adjusting understanding if needed. Have your child write the number name into the grid one letter per box, working across or down as indicated. Continue through each numbered clue, rereading the completed number names together once the puzzle is finished.
