About This Free Numbers In Order Worksheet For Kids for Kids
One page, one method — that is the whole of this free numbers in order worksheet for kids. A name and date line runs across the top, a coloured title band names the activity, and one line of instructions sits beneath it. At Kidzolearn, every worksheet is 100% free to download and print — no login, no subscription, no payment required.
Two rows of five empty boxes above a cut line, with ten numbered ball cards below to cut out and glue in order. The cards cover eleven to twenty in a scrambled order.
The last of the six ordering sheets and the last of the teen ones. By this point a child has cut and arranged sixty number cards across the set, which is a considerable amount of practice for something that never feels like a worksheet. This one works well as a check rather than a lesson. If it goes smoothly, ordering to twenty is secure and the before and after sheets are the sensible next step. For more early maths in the same style, see our number worksheets for kindergarten, and the full library sits on our free printable worksheets for kids.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Kidzolearn worksheets really free?
Yes! Every worksheet on Kidzolearn is 100% free — no subscription, no login and no payment required at any time. Simply click the download button, save the PDF and print it instantly at home or in the classroom.
At what age should children start using this numbers in order worksheet for kids?
From about four years old. The check is whether your child can count aloud in order and match a spoken number to its written form. Saying one to ten is the easier half; recognising the digits on a page comes later, and both need to be in place before a missing-number page makes sense.
How does this worksheet help children learn number order?
Numbers In Order Worksheet For Kids gives children ten shuffled beach ball number cards from 11–20. Cutting each card out, working out the correct counting order, then gluing it into the matching grid box builds number sequencing, scissor control and confident independent ordering — the three core skills behind strong early number sense.
Is number sequencing part of the official early years curriculum?
It is. Ordering numbers and knowing the one before and the one after appear in early years frameworks across India, the UK, the US and Australia, always ahead of adding and taking away. A child who is unsure what follows seven cannot reliably add one to it, so our free printable coloring pages build on the same number order in a different form.
Can I use these worksheet at home?
Absolutely! This worksheet is completely free to download and print at home. All you need is a printer and a pencil (or scissors and glue for cut-and-paste activities) — no cost, no sign-up and no login required. You can print it as many times as your child needs.
