Gurgles, and cries and giggles are the vocabulary of an infant, till the age of one year, when they start to talk, and form sentences by about 18 months. If your baby is forming sentences before 14 months of age, and loves your story telling sessions, or is able to follow your instructions to carry out a particular task, then be assured that your baby is a gifted child.<\/p>\n<p>Your child will reach other milestones early as well, but you\u2019ll be surprised at how easily your child forms complicated sentences with ease.<\/p>\n<h2>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They are extremely good at observing<\/h2>\n<p>Your exceptionally intelligent child is probably quite observant too. He\/she will remember shapes and colors, your routine, and recognizes \u2018pattern recognition\u2019 i.e. repeated behaviors or activities happening around him\/her earlier than others. They will observe the number of toys which can fit in their box and so on.<\/p>\n<h2>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Emotionally intense personality<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-66021\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Emotionally-intense-personality.jpg\" alt=\"Emotionally intense personality\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Emotionally-intense-personality.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Emotionally-intense-personality-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Emotionally-intense-personality-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Emotionally-intense-personality-585x390.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>Your little child genius will have an intense personality too. Remember reading\/watching the highly emotional\/volatile\/intense personalities of geniuses in books and films? Your little one who is exceptionally intelligent will also feel everything intensely.<\/p>\n<p>Both negative and positive experiences are felt deeply by genius children, and they also have a very mature thinking which is quite complex. They connect at a powerful level to pets and people forming connections easily. They may be upset by other adults and children reacting in a negative way to their emotions and thoughts, but you have to reassure your gifted child that he\/she is perfectly normal.<\/p>\n<h2>4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sharp memory<\/h2>\n<p>If your kid is a genius, he will have a memory which will amaze you. He will also be able to make connections easily, for example, he might point to the refrigerator if he\u2019s hungry. He will form an understanding of his surroundings earlier than the expected age, and will remember what he sees. Also, the names of all types of dinosaurs!<\/p>\n<h2>5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Extra alert<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-66022\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Extra-alert.jpg\" alt=\"Extra alert\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Extra-alert.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Extra-alert-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Extra-alert-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Extra-alert-585x390.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>Babies and toddlers respond to the adults\u2019 behavior around them. If your toddler is a gifted child, he\/she will notice that you are feeling low, and will try to console you in the best way they can \u2013 hugging you or wipe away your tears. Parents of exceptionally intelligent toddlers should control their anger and other intense behavior as they might end up scaring their child.<\/p><div class=\"38520354a5201685ddf480eec688e1a7\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-9477973674766713\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8885944693\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Extremely curious<\/h2>\n<p>Extra intelligent children are full of questions about everything they come across.

You will probably learn a lot too, and Google will become your best friend.

Intelligence in toddlers is observed if a child seeks the company of other children, then they would be older than your child, as they can gain higher intellectual as well as emotional explanation for things.<\/p>\n<p>If your child is satisfied with their toys, and can play for hours without a lot of things, then your child is a gifted child. Your child may be introverted too, so it won\u2019t be a good idea to force him\/her to do anything they don\u2019t want to, especially making friends with children they don\u2019t pay much attention to.<\/p>\n<h2>8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Problem solver<\/h2>\n<p>Your little darling who is very talented will not give up easily. He will actually find new and innovative ways to solve problems. You can notice this when he\/she tries to fix the toys they have broken or when they try to create new things from things they find lying around.<\/p>\n<h2>9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Can Be Stubborn<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-66025\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Stubborn-kid.jpg\" alt=\"Stubborn\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Stubborn-kid.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Stubborn-kid-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Stubborn-kid-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/Stubborn-kid-585x390.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>Been tearing your hair out dealing with your stubborn little toddler? Well, it seems stubbornness is a sign of determination and considered high intelligence in toddlers, especially if they negotiate with you to get whatever they want.<\/p>\n<h2>10.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Displays a thorough grasp of things<\/h2>\n<p>Children who are particularly gifted have an in-depth knowledge of the subject<\/p>\n<p>Their interest. They may probably list all the cars in the world, or the planes and dinosaurs. They will have a deep grasp of the fundamentals of the subject they\u2019re interested in by the age of 11.<\/p>\n<h2>11.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They sleep less<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-66026\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/They-sleep-less.jpg\" alt=\"They sleep less\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/They-sleep-less.jpg 800w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/They-sleep-less-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/They-sleep-less-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2018\/12\/They-sleep-less-585x390.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>Another aspect of gifted children is that they have high energy levels and thus find it hard to switch off their brains. They fall asleep only when they are physically and mentally tired. Even if they sleep less than 10 hours, they don\u2019t seem to be affected by it and are hardly ever cranky because of less sleep.<\/p>\n<h2>12.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Extreme focus<\/h2>\n<p>Babies have very short attention spans and are distracted easily by new movements and sounds around them. They might do something for about 10-15 minutes, but beyond that, especially over the age of one is too much to expect. A gifted baby will focus for a long time on something, and they are able to match colors and shapes when they are about 10\/11 months. They might even point to images and turn pages as you read out from storybooks.<\/p>\n<p>Babies who have a higher birth weight and hear many languages end up <a href=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/guide\/7-ways-improve-childs-ecological-iq\/\">having a higher IQ<\/a>. \u00a0All children make up stories but if the stories are very intricate, then you may consider your child to be gifted exceptionally too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"38520354a5201685ddf480eec688e1a7\" data-index=\"3\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n          <p><a id=\"link-15\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\r\n            <img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;\" id=\"img-15\" src=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\r\n            <script>\r\n            var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();\r\n            xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {\r\n              if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {\r\n                var myObj = JSON.parse(this.responseText);\r\n                document.getElementById(\"link-\"+myObj.id).setAttribute('href',myObj.url);\r\n                document.getElementById(\"img-\"+myObj.id).setAttribute('src','https:\/\/fetch.drprem.com\/\/uploads\/'+myObj.image);\r\n              }\r\n            };\r\n            xmlhttp.open(\"GET\", \"https:\/\/fetch.drprem.com\/\/api\/Ads\/15\", true);\r\n            xmlhttp.send();\r\n            <\/script>\r\n        \r\n        <style>\r\n        *{box-sizing:border-box}.top-container{display: grid;grid-template-columns: auto auto auto;}.column{float:left;width:100%;padding: 0 7.5px 15px 7.5px;}.row{margin:0 -5px}.row:after{content:\"\";display:table;clear:both}@media screen and (max-width: 600px){.top-container{display: block;grid-template-columns: unset;}.column{width:100%;display:block;margin-bottom:20px}}.card{text-align:center;}.card_image img{width:100%}.card_body{padding:15px}.card_title{font-size: 14px;line-height: 19px;text-decoration: none;text-align:left;color: #333;}.card-heading{text-align: left;margin-bottom: 25px !important;}\r\n        <\/style>\r\n        <div class=\"row todays-top\">\r\n            <h3 class=\"card-heading\"> Recent Articles: <\/h3><div class=\"top-container\" id=\"todays-top\">\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <script>\r\n            var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();\r\n            xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {\r\n            if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {\r\n            var myObj = JSON.parse(this.responseText); \r\n            myObj.forEach(function(item) {\r\n            document.getElementById('todays-top').innerHTML += '<div class=\"column\"><div class=\"card\"><div class=\"card_image\"><a href=\"'+item.url+'\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"'+item.image+'\"><\/a><\/div><div class=\"card_body\"><a href=\"'+item.url+'\"><h3 class=\"card_title\">'+item.title+'<\/h3><\/a><a href=\"'+item.url+'\">Read more<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>';\r\n            });\r\n            }\r\n            };\r\n            xmlhttp.open(\"GET\", \"https:\/\/fetch.drprem.com\/api\/Drprem_blogs\", true);\r\n            xmlhttp.send();\r\n            <\/script>\r\n        \r\n        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<style>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.videoWrapper{position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0}.videoWrapper iframe{position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%}\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"videoWrapper\" id=\"video_7\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tvar xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                var myObj = JSON.parse(this.responseText);\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                document.getElementById(\"video_\"+myObj.id).innerHTML = myObj.embed_video_code;\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            }\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            };\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            xmlhttp.open(\"GET\", \"https:\/\/fetch.drprem.com\/api\/Videos\/7\", true);\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t            xmlhttp.send();\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All children are unique and special in their own way.
