Boom Boom, We Can Count to 20

During my internship in St. Louis, I worked with a little boy whose goals included counting to 20. He knew how to do it, but his attention often wandered before he completed the task. His favorite "reward" was playing the big paddle drum, so I incorporated this into the counting activity. He help the drum stick while he counted, but was only presented with the drum (which I held) if he counted to 20. I'm sure you'll recognize the melody - it was the perfect song to adapt because the lyrics "boom boom" were already there!

Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Singing our numbers is fun to do,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
Nine, ten, but that’s not the end,
We’ve counted some now let’s play the drum.

Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Singing our numbers is fun to do,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty.

After ten comes eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,
Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty,
Now we’re almost done so let’s play the drum.

Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty,
Singing our numbers is fun to do,
Boom boom, we can count to twenty.
