Jenny  I can’t fill out the form for you (no kids yet), but I came across an interesting site you might like to check out; its a Q/A on parenting and child development. It’s at http://www.welovekids.com/askaparentdoc.htm. Good luck with with your research. Sarah – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> Age of Child:  ___ Years ____ Months > 1.

writes I > Age of Child:  _4__ Years __4__ Months > 1. What number can your child count up to? > 90+, though he gets confused after 48 and needs prompting.  Without

prompting, he can go reliably to forty-eight. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> 2. Can your child recognise the following colours? > Blue > Purple > Red > Orange > Yellow > Black > Green > Brown > White > Pink > Yes to all these. Lilac-purple No. > Grey Yes.   > Turqouise-green.  No.  Incidentally, it’s turquoise. > 3.

All of them.  Also Diplodocus, Deinosuchus, and Megatherium.  And about a hundred other dinosaurs and prehistoric mammals, and aobut antoehr hundred animals and birds, including many different kinds of eagles and vultures.  He can also identify them all precisely from skeletons, pictures, in museums, etc.  I’m not kidding about the number.   > 4.

can reach 48 reliably; for a long time there were 48 of them .  He would probably be too bored to try the task you suggest.   > 5.

No problem.  The question is, would he feel like doing so? > Thank you very much for your time.

I don’t know if you care, but he can also read, and write his name. — Jane Lumley

Kelsey is 2 years and 9 mos. She can count to 10. Blue, Purple, Red, Orange, Yellow, Black, Green, Brown, White, Pink are colors she can recognize.  Lilac is just purple to her.  Grey is one we haven’t worked on. Turqouise would just be blue or green to her. Cat, Car, Dog, Bike, Sheep, House, Rabbit, Window, Bedroom, Elephant, Tiger, Lion, Zebra, Snake, Penguin, Motorbike, Bus,Table, Chair, Telephone, Computer, Television are all things she can name and recognize. Dolphin would just be a fish to her. Lorry….I have no idea what this is so I know she doesn’t either. Yes, she can count the bricks. Yes she could follow those directions. Lisa Mom to Kelsey (2)
