dd1 could whistle at the age of 2 (I still can't)

I once met a boy who, at 18 months old, could click his fingers (on both hands!!) - still can't do that either!

DD can set all sorts of things on the freeview box that I don't have a clue about

Both have been able to remove the video "lock" in seconds (from the age of about 10months) wheras I had to fiddle with it for ages to get it on/off.
