Game Name: Mammoth Counting Instructions: You and your child will count together as you pretend to be woolly mammoths. Start at one and stomp your feet as you say the numbers up to five. After each count, pretend to pick up grass with your trunk (arm) and eat it. The game ends when you reach five and make a trumpeting sound like a mammoth.
