You can play along with the song 10 Apples On My Head following along with the video as you stack the fruit. Or try it on your own and count as you go! You can do all the characters and fruit at once, or focus on one fruit stack at a time.
Fun Variations
- For a fun challenge, try hiding the fruit around the room for little ones to find. They’ll have to play hide and seek with the fruit before they can complete their stacks!
- You can also place the fruit pieces face down on a table so little ones have to turn them over one and a time to find the next number in their stack. Then it’s also a fun memory game.
- Glue velcro strips or magnets to the back of the fruit pieces and heads to play on a felt board or black board.
If you are able, it’s a great idea to laminate the fruit pieces and the heads so they are more durable and last longer. Once you are finished playing with them, pack them up into small baggies until you are ready to play with them again!
We hope you have fun bringing 10 Apples On My Head to life with this exciting counting activity!
