None of this matters.

But you still found it necessary to mentioned how smart your kids are

You’re the one not smart enough to see that she did write how smart they are.

?Are you slow?

Well, my kid can do that at 2.5 (counting to 20, not 30), but on the flip side barely used any other words.

Yes my point was one new them super early, the other not till 3.5. Both are smart. It didn’t make a difference.

Similar experience. My second kid’s language acquisition has been insane. My first was speech delayed. Their IQs appear to be similar. Language (early or late) isn’t a very good predictor of intelligence.

shapes, colors, letters by 2 for sure. Numbers 1-10 by 2.5? 1-30 by 4 (and quickly 1-100 thereafter)

Based on your n of 2? No.

By know the numbers did you mean rote count or recognize the physical numbers, understand their meaning, and rote count?

If it's rote count, then by 4 for the older two, 3 for the younger one. If it's actually understand that 20 is twenty and what twenty means, 5 for the older two and TBD on the youngest. She does understand one-to-one correspondence and the numerals 1-10 but only counts correctly sometimes.

My 16 year old asked me recently if the Pentagon was named after some General so... 16.

Shapes, colors, rote counting, singing ABCs at 2.

Identifying letters, counting with 1:1 correspondence, some mark-making with meaning, spelling his name, reading environmental print at 3.

Understanding letter sounds and matching to letters, trying to spell words, emerging number sense & phonemic awareness at 4.

I'm a former high school teacher. These are the classics that I miss.

My daughter was probably about 18 months old. Kids develop at different ages. I wouldn't put too much stock into it. For what it's worth, mine was able to do all of that but later diagnosed with autism. You never really know how these things are going to play out.
