[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that less than two years is close in age. 2-3.5 years is average and 3.5+ is a big gap. My kids are 20 months apart, and while they've almost always seemed close in age, at 5 (preschool) and 6 (1st grade) they seem farther apart because my oldest can read and write. So it also depends on age and stage of the kids.[/quote] Mine are 3.3 years apart and while it's average, it feels like more because of what grades they went into school (due to cutoffs). I have a 4th grader and a Ker. That feels very far apart. Once they get in school, you start identifying them with the grade cohort rather than specific age. [/quote]
