They have always liked playing with older kids, but as DD1 has gotten older, she's been nicer to littler kids. I'm hoping DD2 will follow suit, because currently, at almost 2, she has no patience for even her own, younger cousin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-do-best-when-they-are-the-youngest-or-oldest#post-2417254 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 15:00:26 +0000 hilsy85 2417254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>youngest--he is much better at sharing, turn taking, using his words, following directions when he is around older kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-do-best-when-they-are-the-youngest-or-oldest#post-2417243 Mon, 11 Jan 2016 14:56:31 +0000 mediagirl 2417243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At school/daycare/preschool, does your child do best when they are the oldest or youngest?</p> <p>My child seems to do best when she is in a room full of older kids. She lives to learn new things and is not a full-blown leader. Right now she is in a room where she is the oldest - and she is only 3.5. They don't move up until 4. It's going to be a long 6 months. </p>
