I don't mean this as a boast (well i suppose it is really) but i can't tell anyone in RL.
DS 3.6 has always been good with numbers since before he could talk. This morning we were round my mums and she had bought him a set of posters off the book people. Theres various designs but one is just the numbers 1 to 100, first row is 1 to 10, 2nd row 11-20 etc.
Anyway DS goes though and names them all which i knew he could do, then he does pointing to 10, 20, 30 etc saying he is counting in 10s, i've heard him do this before so wasn't suprised (think he's seen it on Team Umizoomi). Then he says i'm going to count in 10s from 11 and basically followed the column of numbers down saying 11, 21, 31 etc to 91. Then goes to the next column and says i'm going to count in 10s from 12 and does the same.
How on earth did he know that is you follow the columns down it is counting in 10s?
