2,5-year-old and already a member of Mensa due to high IQ…

Every generation has a prodigy of its own. Children with amazing ability inspire you to believe in miracles because of their astounding prowess.

Similar to how Isla McNabb’s actions raised the hairs on her parents’ necks,

Ilsa McNabb, who is 2.5 years old, enjoys watching “Blippi” on YouTube much like any other little child. However, unlike most toddlers, she also possesses some amazing abilities that baffle her parents.

Isla’s toy alphabet letters were dispersed throughout their home, as seen by both her dentist father Jason and auditor mother Amanda. The word “CAT” was next to their pet cat. They noticed S-O-F-A while standing next to the couch.

They discovered that their young child had put those letters together. Her spelling and word recognition skills astounded them, so they decided to get her IQ tested.
