Use scrap paper, a thick pencil and three broad cards; adult cutting is optional. No purchase, printing, small loose pieces, photos, food, outdoor visit, account or home device is needed. Check actual materials and any familiar approved device locally. Allow about 15–25 minutes for the complete invitation, in short pieces; the 3–8 minute child start can be the whole offer today. Times are suggestions, never timed completion demands.

First check that children can distinguish the two offered choices using their chosen access route, understand an explicit given key with help if needed, and show a selection in a familiar way. Do not require reading, speech, a mouse, touching another person or colour discrimination. Offer words, outlines, patterns, broad cards, pointing, signing, partner-assisted selection or usual communication aids (AAC: augmentative and alternative communication). A helper reads full words and constructs exactly directed choices. Record who chose content and who operated equipment. Observation and a paper plan can be valuable participation without being relabelled actual making or digital use.

Before a digital session, an adult opens the locally approved offline reader, demonstrates Start, a choice, Back and Finish, checks keyboard and display access, and avoids private content. If this preparation cannot be done, use the full paper route. There is no need for every child to run all ten digital tasks or complete every supplementary item.

Read exact full source/meaning before action. First-stage sources after 111–114 and later after 119 must be genuinely unencountered whole accounts; otherwise use them as taught practice or offer ordinary alternatives. Record access/content help and initial response before consulting staff feedback. Source reasoning alone cannot supply an actual digital encounter or learner own-data recognition.
