Counting to 120 Starting at Any Number

Counting is the major part of kids learning. It starts with smaller numbers like 1 to 10 and then moves to bigger numbers. The begging might be easy however things get a little trickier when you approach the higher numbers especially after 100.

The kid might get confused in the concept and may end up not understand it. However, if it is explained easily and in simple words, the kid can get a very strong grip on the concept. So, let me explain how can learn to count for kids.

When we count past 100 to 120 we can use the same pattern that we used when we were counting from 0 to 20. You can start counting from any number in between as long as you remember the pattern from 0 to 20. For example, let's count from 7 to 20. It goes like:

7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 ,20.

Similarly, when you need to count from 107 to 120 you can follow the same pattern. All you need to do is to add a hundred before each number. It would be like: 107, 108,109,110,111,112,113,114,115,116,117,118,119,120.

The numbers would be read as one hundred and seven, one hundred and eight, one hundred and nine and similarly to up to one hundred and twenty.

We followed the same pattern in both the countings. So, all you need to do is to add one hundred before each number and you can start counting from any number within 100 to 120. So that’s it and you have learned to count for kids up to 120.

So that’s it that is just a very way to explain to your kid the concept and help them learn bigger counting numbers very easily.
