Questions and instructions

Literal question

I would like to ask you some questions about the health and development of your child. Children do not all develop and learn at the same rate. For example, some walk earlier than others. These questions are related to several aspects of your child’s development.
Can (name) identify or name at least ten letters of the alphabet?
