Skip Counting Cupcake Worksheet: Count by 10s!
This worksheet has children ages 4-5 fill in missing numbers while skip counting by tens, then cut and paste the numbers onto a caterpillar in the correct sequence. Skip counting by tens is a crucial stepping stone toward place value and mental math, since it helps children see numbers in efficient groups rather than counting one by one.

How to use this worksheet
Start by counting aloud together by tens — 10, 20, 30 — so your child hears the pattern before working with the page. Have them fill in any missing numbers in the skip-counting sequence shown. Then guide them to cut out the loose numbers at the bottom of the page and paste them onto the caterpillar's body segments in the correct counting-by-tens order, checking the sequence together once complete.

- 2Create a number line on paper marking only the multiples of ten and have your child point along it while counting aloud.
- 3Play a hopping game outside, taking one big hop for every ten counted.
- 4Practice skip counting by tens starting from different numbers, like 20, 30, 40, to check real understanding rather than memorized recitation.
