What is one?

"One is like having just one toy in your hand, it’s the very first number we learn, and it means only one thing."

Imagine you have a red ball. That's one ball. Now imagine you take that ball away. You're left with nothing, zero balls! But if you get another red ball, now you have two balls.

• One is the start of counting.
• It’s like having just one cookie on your plate before sharing with friends.
• If you see one butterfly in the garden, it’s not a crowd, it's just that one butterfly.

You can find one everywhere: one sun in the sky, one chair to sit on, even one smile from a friend. It’s simple but powerful, and it helps us count everything else!"One is like having just one toy in your hand, it’s the very first number we learn, and it means only one thing."
