Staying Within Your Ability

Today Mark asked if he could play a video game. We told him that if he could tell us what time it was, he could play. That was at 12:35. He gave a few wrong answers and told us where the little hand and big hand were and then dropped it. We thought he just went on to something else until 1 o'clock rolled around. He knows when the big hand is on the 12 that the little hand tells the time but has some difficulties in between. The solution was to wait until it was 1. So that what he did. At 1 o'clock he comes in and tells us that it's 1 so can he play. We thought that was smart.
