At what age can a child typically state their name and address?

Typically, children around 5 years of age can reliably state their name and address. This age aligns with developmental milestones where children are improving their verbal skills and their understanding of personal information. During this stage, they begin to acquire a better sense of self and their place in the world, which includes knowing fundamental details such as their name and where they live.

By age 5, children are also experiencing significant growth in memory and social development, which allows them to recall and communicate this information more consistently and accurately. It is common for kindergarten-age children to practice sharing such information, preparing them for social interactions and situations where personal identification might be necessary.

The earlier ages mentioned, while some children may begin to recognize their name or understand the concept of an address, do not show the consistency or understanding expected by age 5. Therefore, 5 years is the age at which most children can confidently state their name and address.
