Description[]
Whilst playing Hide and Seek, Sweep confesses that he can’t count so Matthew tries to help him by getting him to count his sugar lumps into his cup of but. However Matthew doesn’t bother having a cup of tea, when Sooty, Sweep and Soo get so carried away with counting sugar lumps into his tea that he ends up having fifteen of them.
Next they count the items of their breakfast sets, but they spend so much time counting, that they lose their appetite so Soo goes to counting her dress for washing, Sooty goes to count his honey and Sweep goes to count his bones. Afterwards, Sooty, Sweep and Soo play a homemade board by Matthew and at the same time they find out what number actually look like.
Then Sooty and Matthew go out and catch a number 9 bus to collect a special package. When they come to the front door of their destination, they discover that the number 6 upside down is the number 9 and vice-versa as the number 6 on the front of the house is upside down. The package is a number 9 for their house and Matthew and Sooty demonstrate their discovery when they return.
That night at their bedtime, Sooty, Sweep and Soo can’t sleep, so Matthew tells them that like him, they should count sheep.
