ASSEMBLYTo assemble this game:

• Print out cards (pages 3-22).• Trim along the dotted lines.• Laminate if desired.

LEARNING OBJECTIVETippy Taps is great practise not just for finger numbers, but for translating finger numbers into action. It also sneaks in a bit of di-rectional reading practise using a 2 line stave.
