Resources
Coloured paper or card, felt tipped pen, laminate or sticky-backed plastic, Blu-tack, a small open-topped box.
Step by step
* Make name cards for every child in the setting, using first names only.
* Laminate or cover with sticky-backed plastic to make them more hardwearing.
* Stick the name cards on a wall above a low table that has the drinks and box on it.
* Instead of having a set time for drinks, allow the children to get their drink within, say, a set hour. Before they take a drink they must take their name card off the wall and put it in the box, showing that they have had their drink.
