Give your child some practice with even numbers, while creating a cute Christmas keepsake. Create this skip counting book.

In kindergarten, your child spent lots of time counting things one by one. But in first grade, he'll need to be able to count in groups, especially by fives.

This activity is based on the popular card game, Slapjack. It's rip-roaring fun, and it reinforces the concepts of odd and even.
