How to use the free PDFs at ages 4–5?
- Start together: You read the instructions; solve the first question together.
- Keep it short: One page, 5–10 minutes per session is enough.
- Support with real objects: Build patterns with beads or LEGO first, then move to paper.
- Praise the process: Ask "How did you find it?"; praise the attempt, not the right answer.
