Tips for parents

  • Make sure the first ten numbers are comfortable first; the bigger numbers are built on them.
  • Count real things past ten: stairs, grapes, steps to the park. Bigger numbers need bigger piles.
  • Do a countdown in Portuguese before something exciting, like opening the front door or starting a race.
