I have been using Let's Count 1 to 10 to teach numbers in preschools and private English classes in Japan, and the kids love it! It's simple and fun. Kids from 1 year old to 10 years old will enjoy this simple song and dance. Also below are photos and a video of how I do the dance.

Dance

While singing, have the children clap their hands in a circular motion from left to right (1,2,3,4,5) then right to left (6,7,8,9,10). At the end when I count to 10, have the children crouch down and pretend they are making a rocket! Once you count to ten blast off!

Here are some photos of how I do the dance:

1,2,

3,4,

5, jump!

Numbers Game

You can use the language of the song to play a fun game. in the middle of the song I sing:
1,2,3 step forward
1,2,3 step back
1,2,3 spin around

Ask the students to take turns and say how many steps forward or back, or spins they want to take. This is a fun and simple way to get them to use numbers. Also, feel free to add other actions; jumps, hops, etc.
