After reading Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes by Mem Fox, create a matching game for the children to play. Using different color markers, trace a child's hand on paper plates. Give each child a plate, play some music and encourage the children to find a color match. Do this several times. Afterward, turn all of the plates face down. Now you have a big memory game that a few children can play together.
