Make math fun with this roll, count, and build game. These worksheets have 2 options, roll either 1 or 2 die. The first option is to roll 1 die and build the blocks on the correct number. The second option is to roll 2 die, add them together and build blocks on the correct number. A great introduction to number recognition and addition.
