I am doing dt coursework and am designing and making a toy to help children with learning disabilities learn to learn basics maths skills. I would need some basic questions asking from parents/people who have experience with these children and understand their struggles and where they need the most help. I would be really grateful for anyone willing to help me
many thanks

I help kids, and they like apps that talk on tablets. Have a look at duck duck moose kids apps.

Thank you! If you wouldn't mind maybe since you work with kids you could answer a couple of questions for my reasearch?? If not then it's not a problem ?

It is very important for all young children to have some experience of handling and manipulating and feeling real objects as a pre-mathematical skill. Where they are unable to do this themselves due to disability then parents/carers can help them. Computer programmes are great but not a substitute for "real" items.
