Out in the Ocean

New Zealand author

Out in the ocean,
underneath the dazzling sun,
Lived a playful mother dolphin
and her little dolphin one.
'Flip!' said the mother.
'I flip!' said the one.
So they flipped above the waves,
underneath the dazzling sun.

Go swimming out in the ocean and see who else you can find as you count from one to ten.

Two ducklings quack; three owls to-whoo; four mice squeak; five bees buzz; six squirrels jump; seven froggies hop; eight lizards run; nine piglets oink, and ten foxes play in this fun illustrated version of the well-known counting rhyme.
