Here is One, alone in the sunBut far from lonely is he
Quiet and shy, contemplative and wry
He’s calm and content as can be.

Now that you’ve made friends with the numbersThey may not seem so
different from youAlways busy, but able to lend a hand
With anything you need to do
It’s good to help each otherand fun to have some friends
And when you play togetheryou make a perfect Ten!

Lets draw some numbers! It’s easy and fun!
One stands up straight, then puts on his
shoes and hat!
Five walks down the street and runs around the corner-
but has to go back for his hat!
Nine holds her chin up high and stands
straight!
Two runs around the corner then
straight down the street to school!
Six spins and loops!

Three plays leapfrog, once, then twice!
Seven runs backwards
and falls down!
Zero is a circle, make him
round or oval!
Four does a curtsy- one leg up,
one leg down!
Eight likes to spin in circles
that don’t stop!
Try here, or on another piece of paper!

About this storyWhen I was little and learning how to count
it was hard for me to remember the numbersand learning math was very scary
(sometimes it still is!)
So I would play make-believe, and make thenumbers my friends. They had favorite things
to do and places to be, just like me!
Did you ever make friends withthe numbers too?
