A bunny hops along a number line. It jumps forward by 2s from 4 (4 to 14), forward by 5s from 15 (15 to 40), then back by 10s from 90 (90 to 50), and each count is checked by the numbers it skips, five small steps, or 10 less each jump. The video ends with a one-line recap: skip-count by 2s, 5s or 10s, forward or back.
