Abstract concepts, memorization of numbers, understanding quantity, mental calculation: these are all cognitive challenges.<\/pee>\n<pee>However, with adapted, progressive, and fun methods based on concrete manipulation and play, children with Down syndrome can learn numbers, understand quantities, count, and even perform simple operations.
