Ten!

We have been working on things for a while now, we were pretty excited to hear her do it by herself:

It's sure fun seeing her learn things.  For the longest time she'd repeat numbers we said but then we we told her to count she'd just say "two two two two".  What got us over the hump?  Nothing short of the old standby, clip hands.

We had been playing with clips recently (Noelle found my bag of them I have around for crafts).  She found them funny to clip on my fingers so we would practice counting.  We were just going for five but sometimes she'd keep going.  Apparently she was listening to all those Sesame Street episodes.  She got to ten in no time.  Maybe I should patent clip hands for teaching children how to count...
