Finger Counting

Summer fun! When you are in the mode of waiting for something and someone and you can't think of anything to do... Let your memory works, go back to your counting days.  Remember the time when you first learn how to count using your fingers? It's awesome right? Literally, I still do finger counting until this time.  Sometimes,  when I am in the middle of adding and subtracting some numbers, I flashily look at my fingers and start counting.  That's how icky I am when it comes to Mathematics.  Though in public if you're quite age and people see you doing the finger counting... never mind their reactions.  Just give them a sweet glance that bespeaks your indubitably fine.  By looking at these pictures, I can't help but groove on to the exigent functions of our hands especially our little fingers. Can you imagine if you are one of those people who were born without hands? It will be very difficult for you to eat, write, carry and do the things you wanted to do in your everyday life including counting. So, start taking care of your hands including your little fingers.  Your little fingers will help you accomplish many things in life. Now, let's try the finger counting...
