Let's break down each child's clue and match it with the numbers provided: **15,987**, **15,813**, **15,101**, and **16,101**.

1. **Filip says, “My number rounds to 16,000 to the nearest thousand.”**
   - The number closest to 16,000 when rounded to the nearest thousand is **15,813** because:
     - Rounding 15,813 to the nearest thousand gives us 16,000.
   - So, **Filip’s number is 15,813**.

2. **Esther says, “My number has 1 hundred.”**
   - The number that contains a 1 in the hundreds place is **16,101**.
   - So, **Esther’s number is 16,101**.

3. **Jack says, “My number is 15,990 when rounded to the nearest ten.”**
   - The number that rounds to 15,990 when rounded to the nearest ten is **15,987**, because:
     - Rounding 15,987 to the nearest ten gives 15,990.
   - So, **Jack’s number is 15,987**.

4. **Dora says, “My number is 15,000 when rounded to the nearest thousand.”**
   - The number that rounds to 15,000 when rounded to the nearest thousand is **15,101**, because:
     - Rounding 15,101 to the nearest thousand gives us 15,000.
   - So, **Dora’s number is 15,101**.

### Final matching:
- **Filip: 15,813**
- **Esther: 16,101**
- **Jack: 15,987**
- **Dora: 15,101**
