Numbers are like special words we use to count things. They help us know how many of something we have. For example, if you have one toy, we say ‘one.’ If you have two toys, we say ‘two,’ and so on.

Numbers are all around us! We see them on clocks, on our fingers and toes, and even in the books we read. They help us understand how much of something we have or how old we are.

We can also play fun games with numbers, like counting toys or counting how many friends are in the room. And as we learn more about numbers, we can do even more exciting things, like adding them together or taking them away.
