First time mum here so not entirely sure what is ‘normal’ at what age this age - but my 20 month old DD amazes me at what she understands. She can’t yet talk in sentences, but we’ve just had this conversation…
”Where have we been today?” “Granny’s, car, rain”
“What did Granny make you for lunch?” “Sandwich”
”What was on your sandwich?” “Chicken”
”What else did you have for lunch?” “Crispies, cucumber”
”What fruit did you have for your lunch?” “Strawberries”
”What book did Granny read to you today?” “Bear” (brown bear, brown bear)
”What else?” “Caterpillar”
”Did Granny do some stickers with you today?” “Elephant, giraffe” (an animal sticker book)
”Granny yoghurt, orange” (she fed her a yoghurt and orange)
”What else did you play at Granny’s?”
”drum”
”Did you cry when we had to leave Granny?” pretended to cry “car, sleep, shhhhh” (she slept in the car on the way home).
All of her answers were correct.
Is this normal for her age or is she ahead of where toddlers typically are on their understanding?!
