A popular television figure in DR´s childrens television series "Skæg med tal" (fun with numbers) and "Skæg med bogstaver" (fun with letters) - originally a swedish concept.

In 2011 he released "Hr. Skægs store drømme" with assistance from Toke Reunert - that focuses on questions and dreams.

Skæg med tal
Skæg med tal
Skæg med tal
Skæg med tal
Der er så mange sjove numre
Lad mig vise dig hvordan man tæller til 10
Det er så fedt at bruge hjernen
Når man tænker på tal

For 1 er bare en streg
Og 2 ligner lidt en svane
Og 3 er som et overskæg
4 er sejlet på et skib
5 fingre er der på min hånd
Skæg med tal x4
*trumpetsolo*
Jaerrrrr
Lad os bruge fantasien
Lad den svæve ind i tallenes verden
Der er altid sjovt at være
Giv bare slip, og kom med
Der er 6 strenge på en guitar
Og 7 er som en knækket gren
8 er en snemand
9 er en ballon i snor
10 er det sidste tal
Skæg med tal x4
Alle kan lære at tælle
Bare kom med mig
Jeg tæller løs og har det altid
SKÆGT MED TAL
WUUUUUUUUU
AUUUUUUUUUUU
(skæg med tal)
