 | My son is almost 4 and has no interest in activities like counting or learning the alphabet. He loves to be read to, but when I ask him to help count or say the alphabet, he won't even try.

My suggestion is to let your little boy grow! At the risk of sounding trite, I simply have to say he's not "ready." In fact, it is a rare 3-year-old who is ready to learn the alphabet or to count. If they do say or sing the alphabet (as in the old song, "A,B,C,D,E,F,G ...") the letters don't mean anything. And if they can count to 10, they usually can't match the name of the numeral with its appropriate number of items (for example, if asked to count a pile of seven objects, they may hit one object two or three times and skip others altogether).
