Eins, zwei, drei, vier, fünf, 
sechs, sieben, acht, zehn! 
Elf, zwölf, dreizehn, vierzehn, fünfzehn, 
Sechzehn, siebzehn, achtzehn,
Neunzehn, zwanzig!

Einundzwanzig, zweiundzwanzig, Vierundzwanzig, fünfundzwanzig, Siebenundzwanzig, achtundzwanzig, Neunundzwanzig, dreißig!

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 8, 9, 10!
11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 
16, 17, 18,
19, 20!
21, 22, 23,
24, 25, 26, 
27, 28,
29, 30!

 

Suggestion: 
     You can count to forty by prefacing the word "vierzig" with the German numbers one through nine, and the German word "und". 
     The same pattern is used to count to one hundred! Fifty is "fünfzig", sixty is "sechzig", seventy is "siebzig", eighty is "achtzig", ninety is "neunzig" and one hundred is "hundert"! 
     "Hunderteins" is 101!)
