Number Rhymes: Tens and Teens - Softcover

4*: A visual treat from its energetic front cover right through to the dynamic end papers. It takes a playful approach to numbers with ten jolly rhymes.. The illustrations are hugely enjoyable as well as enhancing the meaning.

This cheerful and memorable book gets 10/10 from me.

Learning is always more effective when it's fun and this lively picture book, which is packed with songs and rhymes, is ideal for giving young children a head start with number confidence. This is a great book for sharing.

This entertaining collection of rhymes explores counting backwards, counting in twos, and counting numbers beyond 10. From 'Five Little Monkeys' and 'Ten in a Bed' to 'One, two, buckle my shoe' and 'One hundred bees round a hive', these rhymes provide a rich range of enjoyable opportunities to familiarise children with ways of manipulating numbers.

An introduction, 'Cracking the Code', discusses ways of learning to count and use numbers beyond 10 - tens and teens - thus providing a useful help for adults.

Collected by a highly reputable early years educationalist with the clear aim of developing early number skills, these rhymes are vividly illustrated by an exciting new talent in children's picture books. This is a book that no foundation stage class should be with out.
