My boy gets numbers
He loves them and he gets them
He understands how numbers work
He can count
He recognises numbers up to 1000
He counts for fun
In ones and tens
He is starting to learn to tell time
I think he is going to be a number based boy
Today my uncle
A number based man
Helped William write a price list
For his shop
Together they listed the items to be sold
And gave each product a price
Watching them
Listening to them
Was priceless
A beautiful moment
True learning through play
A bond through generations
Magical
The priceless price list happened today
That’s brilliant, Monkey is only just starting to ‘want to’ recognise numbers (I’m sure he does know them, just prefers not to be bothered). He can count quite well and had a teaching clock for Christmas. Looks like William can give him some lessons.
How lovely, and great that he wants to learn too, how clever recognising all the numbers too. It’s something that Alex still struggles with despite my attempts to help him-he seems to be more of a letter man at the moment! x
P.S love the wooden shop!
This is so lovely! Your Uncle is such a lovely man. Him and your Auntie still stick out for me in my memory of the Welly Walk xx
