  1. those descriptions describe my 4 year old neice


  2. Three or four.

  3. for a girl in the three year range

    for a boy three to into the four year range.

  4. Maybe 4, or 5.

  5. 3 or 4 years old.

  6. Not soo concerned about the age but see signs of other problem  If this child is 5, then there's a problem which needs to be diagnosed.  If this child is 2 or 3 then this is most likely normal mental growth.  Not understanding simple tasks is what triggers me.

  7. 3 to 5 maybe 6.

  8. 3, just because my son can do half of the stuff listed and he is about to turn 3

  9. As a substitute teacher, it sounds like a kindergarten student on the first day of class. by the time the school year is over, the majority of the students can do all of the items you listed above.

  10. 3 - 5 years old.

    I would think a 3 year old who can do all these things is very smart :-)

    I would think a 5 year old who does this is about ready to learn more.

    If a kid is over 6 years old and still can't do this stuff - I would think that they have some kind of learning disability and need extra attention.  

  11. 3 or 4

  12. Probably around 5 or so.  It's been a while for me!
