Counting All the time

I have posted ideas to count before, but we have counted quite a bit in our household today.  First we counted when we brushed our teeth (well I counted while the boys brushed).  For teeth we count to 60.  Then for Valentine's Day, both boys got temporary tatoos in all of their loot.  So to put one on with water, we count together to 30.  My older son helped with the shake and bake and he counted to 10 for each chicken piece.  Then I caught him playing with the balloon trying to keep it up in the air while he counted to 100 by tens.  Lots of counting needs to happen to acquire number sense and it can happen every day in little ways.
