Counting game with Q tips


I found this game on Pinterest and tried it at home. All you need are straws and Q-tips and a bucket. This entertained the kids for about a half an hour this morning.

First we set a bucket on a child's chair and sat in the floor with our straws. We shot and aimed and did this for about 10 minutes. Then, my four-year-old wanted to try the game on our stairs. We already have each riser labeled with the numbers 1-10, but we did not use them for this game. Next, I laid a tablecloth upside down on our dining room table and labeled 10 sections 10 through 100. We are just starting to learn counting by tens so I wanted to see how my son would respond to this. I think it was a good exercise and help him recognize some of the numbers.
