What to do


1. Create a chart that lists the numbers from 1-50.

2. Write down each number as family members locate that number
on a car, a sign, a building.

3. Write down phrases that have numbers in them such as "one-stop shopping," "two-day service," or "open 24 hours."

This is a great challenge for family members of all ages, because even young children can learn to recognize numbers.
