ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
J (3Y8M11D) tried this for
the first time today. He enjoyed it very much, but didn’t want to say the name
of the numbers out loud. I did not insist. If I say the name of the number,
generally he could find the corresponding tile. It was a long session to do all
to 100. I only had in mind to complete up to 30 or 50, but he suggested to go
on after each ten. We reached 100 and it felt good. He felt the sense of
achievement. I am so proud that he was the one to suggest to continue and that
he went on to finish it. But I hope one day he could do it without me by his
side.
