https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/paint-the-squares

Can you add actions when you are counting? Maybe you could start off really small when counting forwards and grow really tall. What would you do when counting backwards? Can you explain to your adult why you would add these actions. Think about what happens to the numbers as you count forwards and backwards to help with your explanation.
