That's fascinating, and terribly cute. I'm determined to get my daughter to understand the equal volumes thing before that age. :)

What I wonder is if they can be taught the difference, and then apply it at that age. It must be difficult to discern genuine developmental stages from average learning achievements.

We have these large flashcards with different objects on them, and some of the flashcards just have colors. My daughter is just 3mo, but I've been holding up two object cards, then holding up the color card that matches one object. I then drop the card that doesn't match the color, and then act like we just did something great. I am wondering how long it will take before she can start to anticipate which card I will drop.
