My First Numbers: Let’s Get Counting!

Let’s have fun counting to 10, then up to 20, recognizing numbers, and saying lots of words!

1 toy train, 2 little feet, 3 spotty ladybugss, 4 teddy bears, 5 leaping frogs—it’s time to get counting! Babies and toddlers will love joining in and learning their numbers from 1 to 10, and then up to 20 in this first counting book that’s perfect for sharing.

Each page is dedicated to a number, and there are entertaining play-and-learn questions and challenges throughout, such as flapping your arms 7 times like a butterfly, checking there are 8 carrots for 8 bunny rabbits, wiggling 10 fingers, and buzzing 20 times with 20 honeybees! A final recap page gets little ones thinking about “less than” and “more than.” 

Inviting and educational, the book is filled with clear, bright photographs of all sorts of familiar things, from bath ducks to bananas and flowers to fruit. Word labels accompany the objects so that babies and toddlers can learn the names of the things they are counting.

This interactive book delivers a rounded early learning experience, and helps children develop speaking, listening, and observation skills. The sturdy board pages are ideal for young children, while the easy-grip tabs along the top and side (showing the numerals 1 to 10 and 20) encourage children’s fine motor control and promote their number recognition. Preschoolers will quickly recognize the number on each tab, which takes them straight to the page showing objects in that quantity.
