You will need paper plates numbered zero to 10 and Unifix® cubes. Have the children dance to music. When the music stops, the children will look at the plate they are close to and gather that number of children around the plate. For example, four children will stand behind paper plate number four, two children will stand around paper plate number two. If there are not enough children, the children can place Unifix® cubes on the plate to supplement. For example, if there are only three children left to stand behind the plate numbered “four,” one child will get a Unifix® cube and place it on the plate.
