Chinese one to ten counting is very easy and Children can grasp is at the age of 4. Usually before they can write these nubmers, they must learn to speak them out.
Pinyin:
yi
er
san
si
wu
liu
qi
ba
jiu
shi
In fact we Chinese don't care the tones so much, when we use pinyin to note the pronunciation of any words, we just write Roman letters usually. If you do not speak it or learn by Audial materials, it's thinkably hard!
