ISO a supplemental k-1 math picture book that can be done verbally. Need something just like MEP's reception book

Hey all! I haven't been here for awhile but I always come back here when I need to find a resource because you all are the most knowledgeable people on the topic of homeschooling anywhere that I've seen on the internet. 💖

I have a very delayed 9yo boy and a very energetic 5yo girl that I would like to find a book to look at with that has some math question prompts. MEP's reception book is basically what I'm looking for but I need more than that. Any ideas?

Check Anno's Math Games. It's a collection of lovely pictures and prompts like encourage different ways of looking at things.  I know there are at least 3, going up in level, as well as a few others of his like the Mysterious Multiplying Jar.  We have enjoyed them quite a bit.

First Year in Number, maybe? It's in the public domain.

Natural Math may be worth checking out. Socks Are Like Pants, Cats Are Like Dogs and Bright, Brave, Open Minds.

The Gattegno books perhaps? You'd need some Cuisenaire Rods to go with them. 

Gattegno Mathematics Textbook 1 (Study of Numbers Up to 20) https://a.co/d/4lLFoCm

Or view them online at https://issuu.com/eswi/docs/gattegno-math-textbook-1 .

Maybe a book from the Critical Thinking Company?

I’m not familiar with MEP, so maybe I’m off in my recommendations……

Bedtime Math

Math Start Series (not sure if this has questions at the end, we haven’t used them in awhile)

Anno’s Math Series

Richard Scarry’s Best Counting Book Ever (OOP) *no questions 

Mr. Base 10 Invents Mathematics 

 

Life of Fred? 

 

Possibly Math By Hand or another Waldorf ish style math. Not sure how you feel about the art component most Waldorf maths have.
