Question

Four-year-old Jenna is looking at a drawing of her family tree. Her father tells her she has three aunts and two grandmothers. Her father then asks her if she has more grandmothers or more relatives. What will she say?

Answer 1

Answer: She will most likely say she has more grandmothers.

Explanation: The four year old is more likely to say more grandmothers because a four year old might not or is incapable of some form of logical reasoning. By the age of 7 to 8, a child should be then capable of identifying the difference and similarities between grandmothers, aunts and relatives.
