[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could sing the song around 18-24 months and recite the numbers to ten around then. Between 2-2.5 he learned to count, recognize the numerals up to 20, and recognize all the letters independently. Whether that seems young or old, I will add that both DH and I were early readers (learning between 3 and 4 on our own) and he has two grandfathers, 3 uncles, and 2 aunts who are mathematicians and engineers. So we are not surprised by his comfort with and interest in numbers, nor are we pushing/drilling/quizzing/emphasizing any of these skills.[/quote] We are both PhDs and engineers, and have several MDs, PHDs and engineers within immediate family (all my siblings, and my dad are PhDs). Our 2yo has no interest in books (refers to them with the word for 'crap' in our language), letters or numbers but is very socially savvy and physically advanced. You never know. We just let her be.[/quote]
