How to use the I spy maker

1. Pick a theme and difficulty.
2. Click “New page” until you like the layout — every page is different.
3. Print the page, and print the answer key separately if you want to check answers.
4. Children find each picture shown in the table, count how many there are and write the number underneath.
5. For extra challenge, ask them to colour or circle each group in a different colour as they count.

Pictures are emoji drawn by your device, so they print in full colour on most computers and phones. They look slightly different on Windows, Mac and Android because each system has its own emoji designs.

Skills children practise

• Visual discrimination — telling similar pictures apart among many.
• Counting and one-to-one correspondence — touching each picture once as they count.
• Number writing — recording each count in the table.
• Attention and persistence — scanning the whole page systematically.
• Vocabulary — naming each animal, food or object.
• Sorting and comparing — which picture has the most? The fewest?

Difficulty levels

For toddlers, point to one picture in the table at a time and count together. For older children, time how long a page takes or add questions such as “How many more cats than dogs?”.

Counting strategies to teach

• Scan in rows from left to right like reading, so nothing is missed.
• Put a small dot or tick on each picture after counting it.
• Count one kind at a time rather than everything at once.
• Say the number aloud while touching each picture.
• Check by counting again in the opposite direction.

Ideas for using I spy pages

Worked example

For a four-year-old on a long car journey, a parent chooses the animals theme at medium difficulty and prints five different pages. On the first page there are 3 dogs, 7 cats, 5 rabbits, 2 frogs, 8 monkeys and 4 foxes scattered across the page. The child counts each animal, ticking them off, and writes the numbers in the table; at the next stop the parent checks with the answer key and asks which animal appears most.

Turning I spy into maths practice

Once the counting table is filled in, the page becomes a small maths lesson. Ask children to find the total number of pictures by adding the counts, compare two groups (“how many more rabbits than frogs?”), put the counts in order from smallest to largest, or draw a simple bar chart with one bar for each picture. Older children can work out fractions — “what fraction of the animals are cats?” — or tally marks in groups of five. The answer key makes checking quick for parents and teachers.

Making your own themes

Children can design their own I spy page too: fold a sheet into a grid, choose three to five small pictures to draw, and hide different numbers of each across the page. Swapping pages with a sibling or classmate turns it into a game, and drawing the pictures practises fine motor skills. For themed learning, match the page to what the class is studying — ocean animals during a sea unit, vehicles for a transport topic, or foods for a healthy-eating lesson.

Accessibility and younger children

For children who find busy pages overwhelming, choose the easy level with only four kinds of picture, and cover half the page with a sheet of paper so they count one half at a time. Larger print sizes and colour printing make pictures easier to tell apart. For children with visual impairments, fewer, larger pictures and high contrast work best; the medium and hard levels suit children who enjoy a challenge.

Printing tips

Print in colour for the best experience; the emoji are recognisable in grayscale too, but colour helps younger children. Use landscape or portrait on US Letter or A4 — the page scales to fit. For repeated use, slip pages into a clear plastic sleeve and use dry-erase markers.
