You can count by twos by either:

• Adding 2 to the previous number or
• Counting and skipping every other number.
  
  

The numbers that you would count if you started with 0 and counted by twos would be:
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 and so on.
Notice that all of the counts are even numbers.
