* Glue a set of six clear magazine photographs of fruits that babies and toddlers in your care will recognise on to white cards.
* Buy real examples of the fruit in the photographs.
* Place the cards and fruit in a bowl or basket.
* Sit on a mat with one of the babies in your care and place each of the cards on the floor beside the bowl.
* Look at one photograph at a time, name the fruit, describe it and name it again.
* Take the fruit from the bowl and compare them to the photographs. Match some to the cards and mismatch others, then exclaim when you correct your mistake!
