I have watched a few you tube videos about digit span and read some things as well. I think my oldest daughter who is thirteen could benifit from this exercise but I also have a two year old with down syndomre. When is the best time to start and how would you start?

Thanks

Hi sandy,

You can start now! Have you listened to the podcasts on Down syndrome by NACD? They talk about this & the child in the example is very young - around a year if I remember right. I’m on my phone right now, or I’d find it for you, but you can find the link on my blog. Look in the right hand column under Labels, then podcasts. I highly recommend the podcasts for many areas that they talk about.
