[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 2.5 year old can do the entire list. It is possible, Posters. She has two older brothers and simply watched them. I really wonder why more parents don't encourage skills like this. [/quote] I wonder that too. To be perfectly honest, that list seemed like a "given" to me. I did actively teach my kids these skills from very early on. It just made life easier (albeit much slower) when the child can do these things when the "I do it!" phase hits. Currently my youngest - 20 months old - can put on and take off her own shoes, eat unaided with a fork and spoon, drinks from an open cup, walks into classes and places we go on her own. We've started potty training and are teaching her to get dressed herself. [/quote]
