Does anyone know of research to support the idea that early development of walking, puzzles, speech, etc. is associated with GT levels later in life?


I don't know how to move this quote in the cool little box. frown

I read something about this very topic quite recently. Unfortunately, I read a lot of books, journals, and online stuff, and cannot recall the source. I will see what I can find and hope to share it soon.

Anecdotally, in my family, we have a late walker who has hypotonia and didn't walk independently until 15 months. We also have three who were walking well months before their first birthday, the earliest at seven months. She is diagnosed hyperactive, and there are sources that cite early walking as a very common attribute of kids later diagnosed as hyperactive.
