 When a child is first learning numbers, you can make it fun with clapping. To do this, you can clap as you say each number. One, two, three. One, two, three. Then the child can count and clap along with you. One, two, three. One, two, three. As the child learns, you can try counting higher to introduce new numbers. One, two, three, four, and so on. Saying numbers in order is the first step in learning to count.
