Step by step
* Cut a large snake out of white card. Ask the children to draw a face at one end and add a forked tongue, cut from red paper.
* Divide the snake into ten sections using a black marker pen and write the figures 1 to 10 along the snake's body. Decorate with bright patterns.
* Cut two large leaves out of green card and glue them together at the top and bottom, leaving a gap large enough to thread the snake through. Ensure that the leaf is large enough to cover a number when placed over it.
