Wow! How much does this elephant weigh? There is only one in the cart, but this will take me all day!
I went to see my neighbour. She has a red hen. 'Look what I found,' she said. 'Two eggs in her pen.'
This fan has three blades. They spin around and blow. My bubbles get picked up by the wind. Look at them go!
This car has four wheels. It is not a sleigh. This car is not a horse. A car does not neigh!
Five points make a star, and this star's a balloon. I fly through the air. Can I fly to the moon?
One, two, three, four, five. What's next? What comes after five?
Six legs can carry my weight. This big ant really is great!
It's my birthday today. We'll have lots of cake. Seven days later, it's my friend's turn. What a mess we will make!
Eight legs in a web. It's made of thick string. This spider's so huge. What a beautiful thing!
Get all your pencils, and put them in a line. This pheasant's so pretty, we'll need at least nine!
Hold out your hand. Now the other one, then. Each hand is five, and two fives are ten!
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten. It has been so much fun. Let's go back to one again!
