Simplify
Begin with touching only two objects for the child to count.
Extend
Turn this activity into a memory game by having the adult touch three objects. Next, the child touches the objects in the same order. Now try four objects and let the child touch the objects in the same order. Proceed with five objects or more until child is unable to recall the order of the objects. Remember to end the game with a series of touching objects that the child is able to remember.
