Imagine you have a big bag of marbles, and every time you take one out, you put two more back. You’ll always have more marbles to count! This is like how numbers work, there are always more numbers to find, even if you’ve counted forever.
Examples
- You have a bag with 10 marbles, but every time you take one out, you add two more. There’s always more to count.
- If you count from 1 to 100 and then keep going, the numbers never run out, they just go on forever.
- You can’t find the last number because whenever you think you’ve reached it, there's one after it.
