Excellente! You are doing so well! I am very excited to teach you how we tell time in French. However, before we can do this, we must first finish our studies of the numbers that are used in telling time. You can already count up to 30, maybe even 39 at this point! Just in case, we will begin with 30.
Count with me:

Ah, you are doing soooo well! We are now ready for the number 60, which is soixante en français! (Now we both know that to tell time you only need to be able to count to soixante, but we are going to continue on to 69 anyway!) SOUND BYTE GOES HERE
