Geometry skills aren't part of the standardized developmental milestones.
But here is an excerpt from a book:
As one-year olds play, they start to build their mathematical thinking by recognizing patterns and understanding shapes. For example, they notice that night is followed by day and that socks go on feet before shoes. They begin to sort familiar objects by one characteristic, such as whether they are "hard" or "soft." They may enjoy filling and emptying containers. They know that when an object is hidden, it is still there. Many can also do simple insert puzzles when the puzzle pieces show whole objects.
Team him up with 3D-Mike's kid.
Congrats on the journal derailment.
