Fun way to teach your kids to count to 20

Posted by Wendy on Wednesday Jan 21, 2009 Under Parenting

I’m not sure how it started but now every night before putting Katrina to bed I have to give her 20 kisses. Tough job but someone has to do it, gotta take those kisses while I can still get them ;) Partly we were doing it because she kept skipping 13 so thought the practice would be good and it worked very well. In fact we worked our way up in the counting all the way to 80 but 20 is what stuck. She gets kind of silly some times wanting to strike poses between kisses, or do dance moves but it’s a fun painless way to teach your child to count. Once I was watching a friends child and I was putting all the kids to bed and gave Katrina her kisses and he requested to have 20 kisses too!
