Say the rhymes with your child as you demonstrate how to write each numeral.
1 Start at the top and go straight down;
here you have the number ONE.

3 Start at the top circle half way around and half way around again; to make the number THREE.
4 Start at the top straight line down and straight line over, and one longer straight line down once more; look at that you made a FOUR.
