Is 2.5 yrs an ok age gap for playing together? (2 girls)

I think it's fine. My girls are a little over two years apart. They played a lot together, especially once the youngest got out of the baby stage. What was more of an issue as they grew is they naturally developed different interests. One loved bugs, the other loved Barbies. One was an extrovert, the other was in introvert. One loved scary things and chasing adrenaline activities, while the other liked "safer" choices. There were still areas of common ground, but I think it was good that they developed independent directions as well.
