It often goes like this:
Isaac: How many days until Busy World?
Amanda gives some number that is probably higher than the real one.
Isaac: Can you could from that number to 1?
Amanda: 80, 79, 78...
Today Ben was in the car too and suddenly said, "You missed 44!"
I told him counting backwards from such a large number is hard. My cadence is all messed up...I usually emphasize the multiple of ten number and take a breath after it. But if I take a breath between, say 31 and 30 it feels weird. But if I take a breath between 30 and 29 I don't emphasize the multiple of ten.
I told him to try it. He did it with no problem at all.
So what about you? Easy or hard?
