how can i test my toddlers’ iq?

Don’t worry about numbers or labels. Check this web site:

It gives a lot of information about developmental markers. If you’re concerned that your child is not on track, talk with your child’s doctor. If your child is on track or ahead, don’t worry about it. Children develop at their own pace. Just give your child lots of experiences, read to her/him a lot, play with her/him, listen to lots of music, sing, and dance together, and let it come naturally.

Iq Test For Toddlers

Keep an eye on him or her. If she seems like she’s not learning as quickly as she should, you’ll know.

Similarly if she’s off the charts intelligent, you’d know. She’d be doing things that are just not usually within a two year old’s scope.

Some geniuses don’t come into their own for many many years. Einstein couldn’t speak until he was five so even regular development at that young of an age doesn’t really say too much I don’t think.

I suppose you could always take her to a specialist. But what’s the point? Be proactive now and read to her, count with her, play games with her, respect her as a human being and interact with her. That will allow her intelligence to develop to it’s full potential.

You can’t get a really accurate score yourself.

You can take your toddler to a child psychologist, who can do an IQ test, if you think the IQ is average or above.

If you fear your child is slow or retarded, the local school district is required to check out your child for Special Education, which will include intelligence testing. That will be free.

In the observations of me & my colleagues, IQ’s are not stable (meaning, the same through adulthood) until a child is about seven years old, usually.

You should not try to do this. If you have concerns that your child is not making normal progress you should contact your local public school district. They evaluate children to determine whether they have a handicap or developmental delay and they also provide services to address the problems identified. If you think your child is advanced for his/her age you should continue to provide an environment rich in activities and experiences.

IQ tests done on toddler’s are extremely variable and have a low correlation with adult functioning . This is partly because toddlers often do not perform tasks on request, even if they are able to do them when they choose to.

In general I would recommend that you not have your child’s IQ unless it is really necessary. If it is lower than you expect it may lower your expectations of your child. If it is higher, you may raise your expectations unreasonably. You already know your child. That’s more important than an IQ number.

Autism affects 1 in every 110 american children. typically appearing in the 1st 3 yrs of life in the form of unresponsiveness and lack of interest in others, autism tends to be a lifelong disorder. approximately 70% remain severely disabled into adulthood and cannot lead dependent lives. more than 2/3 have mental retardation, with IQs below 70 and frequently below 35. the rest have normal to above average intelligence. some symptoms: lack of social responsiveness to others ( infants typically do not reach out or even make eye contact w/ parents) language and communication difficulties sameness and routine are very important and autistic children become extremely upset at even minute changes

let them play, talk to them, answer their questions, you can use what is called the stepping stones and tick off if you see any of the stepping stones reached which is what happens in a nursery and pre schools but there is no way anyone should want to or need to test a young child’s IQ as it changes as they develop and very little point at this age. mostly watch and observe your child and discuss lots of things to do with the world around them, if your child speds time with other children and can play, enjoys spening time with you then this is all that matters, i cannot tell you if your child is meeting the stepping stones that are AVERAGE for your childs age as i do not know your childs age and stage right now. if you search on google for age and stage milestones for your childs age you may be able to have a look and see if your child meets any of them but remember ALL CHILDREN ARE INDIVIDUALS AND DEVELOP AT THEIR OWN SPECTACULAR RATES SO DONT PUSH THEM!!!

You can’t, only a qualified professional could give you a semi-accurate score and even then IQ is pretty fluid the first few years. Meaning even a qualified examiner might get a different score in a few years time.

you don’t! there are at least 7 different intelligence’s and it is far from appropriate to test an IQ on a child that is just learning. please don’t push your child will be fine and speak and climb among other things in due time.
