Dotty

My 3-year-old daughter is into counting things. Lots of things. Her counting is vocalized as follows: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleventeen, fourteen, seventeen, eleventeen, seventeen, fourteen (repeat eleventeen, seventeen, and fourteen until remaining items are all counted).

She cajoled our friend into counting the [many] dots on her jammies. This is not an easy task. My daughter only holds still when she is sleeping, which makes wiggly dots. Wiggly dots are difficult to count. Second, there are lots of dots on her jammies. Guess how many?


























Eleventeen.
