My DS#1 (will be 5 in December) can recognize quite many numbers, (pretty much up to 999). He has just started adding number by 1, and doing pretty good at it too. Now DS#2 (just turned 3 on Aug 25) can only recognize the numbers from 0-9. We're working on it slowly tho.

Parker is preschool and he recognizes 20 and up. Wyndser is 2 1/2 and can count to 20, but she doesn't read the numbers yet. I'm still working with her on her alphabet before worrying about numbers.

I don't think mine can recognize any. I never asked them though. They know that it is a number, does that count?

That's where we are too. The other day she (dd is 2.5) pointed to and identified the # 10!! We were amazed!

Marcus recognizes numbers and will read address on houses and buildings or cars when we are out. He will say for example, 1-1, eleven, 1-2, twelve. He can count to 100, but I don't think he knows by sight 1-100. He just turned 4.

Ds is almost 5 and knows all his numbers...in montessori they work on single digits, then tens, twenties, etc. I also quiz him in the morning what time it is on my digital clock to get him to recogize "seven twenty seven" instead of "seven 2-7". We do the same with Freeway exit signs, Ex. 166 I say, "Exit one hundred and sixty six" or "one sixty-six" instead of 1-6-6.

My 4 year old knows to 100, we haven't worked higher yet. Both sight, counting and writing. Can do simple addition and subtraction (1-10). Up to 20 in spanish She's very good with math, gets that from my husband not me!
my 2 year old can recognize and count to 20 but normally misses 13 and/or 14. and up to ten in spanish.
