0:02:49 > 0:02:53- because three's the best number. - ERROR BUZZER

0:02:53 > 0:02:56There's a little more to it than that, Three.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58There are some rules you have to follow.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Rule one - count everything once.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Try counting those flapjacks.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07It can help to put them in a line and to point at them

0:03:07 > 0:03:10one at a time to make sure you don't miss any,

0:03:10 > 0:03:12or count the same one twice.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Ah! Four, three, two, one. - ERROR BUZZER

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Wait, one? That's not right.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Rule two - say the numbers in the right order.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32If you don't say them in the right order -

0:03:32 > 0:03:35one, two, three, four -

0:03:35 > 0:03:37you won't know how many there are.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39Oh!

0:03:39 > 0:03:42One, two, three, four -

0:03:42 > 0:03:44- three flapjacks! - ERROR BUZZER

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Oh, we've been here before!

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Rule three - the last number is how many.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53When you reach the last thing to count,

0:03:53 > 0:03:57the last number you say tells you how many there are.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00- Try!- You can do it!- Go on!

0:04:00 > 0:04:04One, two, three, four.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07That's the last flapjack, so, four flapjacks?
