Free Printable Goldfish Counting Cards

My daughters are obsessed with goldfish crackers. We buy the BIG box about every month or so. Of course, Shiloh has limited foods that she will eat and there is no way I’m going to argue with her about eating crackers, so she eats them more than most children do. It’s super cute watching her stick her tiny arm into that big box as it reaches the end…lol! These free printable goldfish counting cards are perfect for snack time.

These Goldfish counting cards are so adorable! What a fun way to combine learning numbers with snack time!

  That is usually a sign that the internet signal is struggling. I would refresh and try again or try from a different device or connection.
