Another game for your kiddos to play while you are creaming the sweet potatoes and basting the turkey...
Help your child create his own cornucopia by forming a paper plate into a funnel shape and securing the edges with tape or staples.
Let your child experiment with tossing cottonballs, toy balls, or wads of paper. You can even let your child experiment by seeing if one cottonball or a few taped together work better in this activity.
Just one person can flick the cottonball out of the cornucopia and up into the air. Catch the cottonball inside the paper plate cornucopia. Encourage your child to count out loud and declare each catch. See how many catches he can complete in a row. Two children can have a contest to see who catches the most in a row.
Two children can attempt to toss the cottonball back and forth between two cornucopias, counting out loud to keep track.
Advanced: Each time you catch the cottonball, you can count by twos, fives, tens or hundreds.
