my daughter has been doing stuff like this for months now, she is 2 as well. Perfectly normal if not a bit gifted i would say!

i walked in my daughters room a couple of months ago and she had all of her shoes matched in a line from on end of the room to the other...i was the weirdest thing i had to take a picture because i didn&#039;t think my husband would believe me when he got home :_P

Answer 9

My son did that from a young age as well.  He had a bunch of Fisher-Price animals from his zoo and Noah&#039;s ark toys, and he used to love to mix them around, then match them up by species and line them up on the table.  Crayons, balls, you name it--he loved sorting.

She&#039;s already learning how to sort and match.  Good for her!
