Numeracy help needed

DS, yr 1, seems to be doing fine with reading, writing etc. I've noticed, and his teacher has confirmed this, that he's not particularly confident with numeracy. I think it's more a confidence thing than anything else so am trying to think of some fun ways to boost his knowledge of the basics. For example, he'll happily tell me which is an odd or even number, and can count in 5s, 10s etc, but sometimes won't remember what comes after 29!!

Are there any good websites with number games on them, or can anyone recommend a book or card game that might help.

Any ideas?
