The double-sided flash cards

While teaching my son to recognise numbers using flash cards, he also wants to teach his snowman and dolphin. So, I pretended to be dolphin and snowman to response to him.

In order to make sure he can really recognise 1-5, I make sure he teaches both dolphin and snowman each of the number before I (represent dolphin and snowman) answer to his question.

I complained him if he asked dolphin or snowman the number that he had yet to teach them and refuse to answer. Meaning to say, I have to be quite alert. However, I was trapped by him.

He turned over the the flash card with number 5 and showied dolphin the other side of the flash card which has apples on it. I (as the dolphin) answered that it is 5 and he laughed!! I asked him WHY? And he showed me the "apples"! He said these are apples! Not 5! #^&%&%&!
