One, two and three jump out.
Twenty says, ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT!
One, two and three run over to join twenty outside the vehicle.
They all say, LET'S EXPLORE!
The numberblocks giggle and run off. Twenty and one hold hands as they slide down a small hill together.
Twenty says, WHOA!
Twenty and one bounce across a sandy beach.
Twenty says, 20!
One says, PLUS 1!
Together, twenty and one says, EQUALS,

Text reads, 20 + 1 = 21.
Together, twenty and one say, I'M 21.
Twenty says, I'M 20.
One says, AND 1.
Three and two join the new number, which is twenty and one attached to each other.
Two asks, YOU'RE 21?
YOU'VE GOT TWO FACES!
Together, twenty and one say, SOMETIMES IT'S EASIER
TO THINK OF BIGGER NUMBERS AS
TWO NUMBERS TOGETHER.
Three says, 21.
Three looks thoughtful.
Three says, 20 AND ONE.
OH, I SEE!
Together, twenty and one say, I WONDER WHO ELSE I CAN
BE!
Twenty and one lie back in the sand. They jump back up, leaving an imprint of their blocks in the sand. They grunt.
They say, AH, THAT'S ME, 21!
Twenty and one run across the sand.
They say, I'M…
The numberblocks split apart. Twenty splits into two ten numberblocks and separates from one.
Together, the tens say, TWO TENS.
One says, AND ONE ONE!
The numberblocks giggle and lie back in the sand and smile. They jump up and leave an imprint of their blocks. The two tens jump to turn into twenty. Twenty and one join together to make twenty one.
Together, twenty and one say, TWO BLOCKS WIDE LEAVES
AN ODD BLOCK ON TOP.
I'M AN ODD NUMBER!
One sits on top of twenty. They run across the sand.
They say, AND IF I DO THIS…
Twenty and one transform into a rectangle that’s three blocks tall and seven blocks wide.
Together, twenty and one say, ...I CAN BE…
Twenty and one’s rows of three separate into seven yellow threes, each with a row of three different coloured balls.
Together, the threes say, SEVEN THREES!
The threes juggle their balls. They grunt and lie back in the sand. They stand, leaving their imprints in the sand. The jump back together and turn into the rectangul that is twenty and one.
Together, twenty and one say, WHICH MEANS I'M ALSO…
Twenty and one rotate so they are three blocks wide and seven blocks tall. The three rows of seven separate into three seven numberblocks with colourful blocks.
The numberblocks say, THREE SEVENS!
The sevens grunt and lie back in the sand.
One of the sevens says, LOOK!
The seven stands and says, A TREASURE CHEST!
A treasure chest on a rock has four ice cream cones.
A second seven stands and says, FULL OF ICE CREAMS!
The third seven stands and says, ON THAT ROCK!
The sevens leave imprints of their blocks in the sand.
Three says, HOW LUCKY IS THAT?
Three nudges two with their elbow.
The sevens say, TRIPLE LUCKY!
One of the sevens lies down by the tall rock with the treasure chest of ice cream cones. They use one of their blocks to form a step. They grunt. A second seven joins and forms more steps. They grunt as the third seven jumps on forming the last steps needed to reach the treasure chest on top of the rock.
The sevens pant and transform into the twenty numberblock and the one numberblock. Two runs up twenty and one’s steps while panting. They reach the ice cream. Two grabs the four ice cream cones from the treasure chest and runs back down twenty and one’s steps. Two hands one and twenty an ice cream cone as they run down. Two pants as they reach the bottom. Two enjoys their ice cream and holds the last one for three, but the ice cream falls off the cone. Two quickly finishes their ice cream. Three looks annoyed.
Together, twenty and one say, HEY, WAIT! I'M A STEP
SHAPE!
THAT MEANS I CAN BE A…
Twenty and one jump and separate into numberblocks one, two, three, four, five and six.
The numberblocks say, STEP SQUAD, READY FOR
ACTION!
The step squad jumps back together into twenty and one.
Two says, WOW, WE FOUND OUT SO MUCH
ABOUT YOU, twenty one!
Twenty and one transform into a rectangle 7 blocks tall and three wide.
Together they say, AND I FOUND OUT THAT I
LOVE FINDING THINGS OUT!
Twenty and one gasp.
Together they say, I FIGURED MYSELF OUT!
Sparkly stars twist around twenty and one. They transform into a new numberblock that carries a backpack and wears a hat.
The numberblock says, I AM TWENTY ONE.
AND I'M A NUMBER EXPLORER!
Together, two and three say, WOW!
Twenty one says, THE QUESTION IS "WHAT COMES
NEXT?"
Twenty one holds a pencil and paper.
Twenty one says, THERE'S ALWAYS MORE TO EXPLORE.
WE'LL NEED A MAGIC MIRROR.
OH, HERE'S ONE!
Twenty one leaps across the beach. Mid-air they spilt into three sevens.
The sevens say, TRIPLE LUCKY!
The sevens transform back into twenty one. Twenty one faces a mirror.
Twenty one and their refletion say, HELLO, ME.
The twenty one in the mirror magically steps out and follows the other twenty one across the beach back to three and two. The first twenty one separates, leaving number blocks twenty and one apart.
The remaining twenty one asks, READY, TWO?
AND GO!
Two giggles and runs across the beach. Twenty follows.
Twenty says, 20!
Two says, PLUS 2!
Twenty says, EQUALS…
Together, twenty and two say, 22!

Together, twenty and two says, I'M TWENTY TWO.
Twenty says, I'M TWENTY.
Two says, AND TWO!
One, Three and Twenty one say, OOH!
Twenty one says, EXCELLENT!
LET'S FIND OUT WHAT YOU CAN DO!
Twenty one pulls out their pencil and paper.
They say, YOU'RE TWENTY TWO BLOCKS, WHICH IS TWO
TENS AND TWO BLOCKS MORE.
Twenty separates into two tens and apart from two.
Twenty one says, LET'S TRY THE TWO ON TOP.
The two tens transform back into twenty. Two jumps on top so that they are eleven blocks tall and two blocks wide.
Twenty one says, AH, YOU'RE AN EVEN NUMBER!
WHICH MEANS YOU'RE A DOUBLE.
TRY SPLITTING DOWN THE MIDDLE.
Together, twenty and two say, I'M…
The numbers split down the middle into two eleven numberblocks. One of the elevens is blue and white, with blue eyes, the other is red and white with red eyes.
The elevens say, DOUBLE ELEVEN!
The elevens transform back into twenty and two, who gasp.
Together, twenty and two say, I FIGURED MYSELF OUT!
Sparkly stars twist around twenty and two. They transform into a new numberblock that has one blue eye and one red eye.
The new numberblock says, I AM TWENTY TWO, AND I'M TWO FOOTBALL
TEAMS.
Twenty splits down the middle into the blue and white eleven and the red and white eleven.
The blue eleven says, HAPPY TO PLAY.
The red eleven says, HOME AND AWAY!
The two elevens giggle as they run to a soccer field on the beach. The elevens split into one numberblocks. Blue one numberblocks face red one numberblocks on the field. Twenty one blows a whistle. A red one kicks a soccer ball. A blue one kicks the ball but falls over. On the side, one, three and twenty one cheer. The game continues as the sun sets.
(Whistle blowing)
The red and blue ones laugh and stop playing. Beside the other numberblocks, the blue ones form a blue and white eleven and the red ones form a red and white eleven.
The red and white eleven says, GREAT GAME!
The blue and white eleven says, NICELY PLAYED!
The elevens fist bump and jump together to form twenty two.
Twenty one says, THAT WAS FUN!
NOW LET'S FIND OUT WHAT'S NEXT!
TWENTY ONE, TWENTY TWO…
Numberblock two grunts as they jump off, leaving twenty. Two stands between one and three. Three gasps.
Three says, IT'S MY TURN!

Twenty says, TWENTY.
Three says, AND THREE.
The other numblocks join twenty and three.
Twenty one says, NOW LET'S FIGURE OUT WHO YOU
ARE.
Together, twenty and three say, I TOLD YOU, I'M TWENTY THREE.
The numberblocks lie back in the sand.
They say, AND I'M HAPPY BEING ME.
Twenty one says, BUT I WANT TO EXPLORE MORE
NOW!
Twenty and three lie in the sand with their eyes closed as twenty three. They open their eyes and stand, leaving an imprint of their blocks in the sand. Three separates from twenty.
Twenty says, WELL, I HAVE GOT A BUS BACK
THERE.
Twenty one turns to leave. The numberblocks giggle leave with twenty one.
On the bus, twenty says, ALL ABOARD!
AND OFF WE GO!
The numberblocks cheer from their seats on the bus.
One of the numberblocks cheers, HORRAY!
The bus drives past all the different numberblock imprints in the sand.
