Using a sharpie marker write numbers 1-10 on clothespins
Grab 10 jumbo craft sticks

You can also simply glue the googly eyes onto the sticks-but they may not stick for as long

This works well as a independent play activity-place items in a tray and leave out for your child to access and use on their own
