I asked Limerick the other day what was, in his opinion, one of the neatest things he knew about math and numbers.
In response he told me he thought the neatest thing was that if you start with the powers of 2 (say, 128 for example) and kept dividing by 2 (32, 16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4, and so on, he said), you would go on forever and never actually reach 0.
Basically my five year old uncovered on his own the concept of an infinite series approaching a limit and (very naturally!) decided it was just about the coolest thing numbers do. I love how his brain processes numbers and analyzes the world in their light!
little thoughts 
It is the coolest thing! I bet he likes fractals, too!
He hasn’t been as interested in geometric math yet – but I really love fractals!
I do, too. I feel they are autistic-friendly! My mind works in fractal patterns.
