Ages 2–3: one familiar action
Look for large, familiar pictures and one choice at a time. Naming colors, animals or helpful objects can be enough for one short visit.
Ages 3–4: match and notice
Try matching, sorting, counting small groups or continuing a simple visual pattern. Stay close and describe what changed without rushing.
Ages 4–6: connect a few steps
Children may enjoy memory, quantities, positions or two-rule choices. Offer a hint as a question and let the child try the next reversible step.
Follow one interest into a real example
If your child is curious about a rainy-day situation, Choose the Helper (grouped under ages 2–3 on our map) offers one clear choice. If they want to count or continue a repeating pattern, Count the Objects and What Comes Next are grouped under ages 3–4. Choose one path and stop when interest fades.
