If you have an identified gifted child, are the others gifted? My first is only 3.5 but clearly seems gifted, and I thought my younger one was "slow" and even worried that she had a speech problem because she hadn't said 25 words before 12 months like her sister, but now she seems ahead of toddlers her age (22 months) with knowing all her colors, letters, numbers, letter sounds,using pronouns, plurals and gerands, etc. properly, identifying shapes like trapezoid, octogon, etc. tons of words,knowing songs etc. Now I know there are kids more advanced than that, but people keep commenting on how much she says etc. and now I am wondering if it is likely that she will be advanced as well... she is very very very very very active, close to hyper, and outgoing and verbal just like her sister, but is much more physically coordinated and better at things like dressing, climbing, etc. She does not have the attention span the other had at this age though.
