📖 Story: Counting with Ahmed
Ahmed loved counting! 🔢
One day, he counted his toys:
“1, 2, 3, 4, 5… I have 5 cars!” 🚗
Then he counted his books:
“6, 7, 8, 9, 10… I have 10 books!” 📚
His sister Sara said: “Let’s count all your pencils!”
They counted together:
“11, 12, 13, 14, 15… Wow! 15 pencils!” ✏️
Ahmed’s mom gave him some apples:
“16, 17, 18, 19, 20… Perfect! 20 apples for our family!” 🍎
Ahmed said: “Counting is so fun! Now I can count to 20!” 😊
