For 19months not only is she so clever to be identifying all of those different things, it's amazing that she can say them all! One of my sons decided not to even speak until he was 3! Lazy so and so! He's above average in everything at school now thank goodness!
I'd say she was by far above average for her age. What does your health visitor say?

wow.. that is really clever.. my son is 18 months and only now beginning to experiment with different words!! your daughter obviously has a very good memory and can hold new information well and quick! bet you feel very proud!

its ovely when they start singing songs.. my daughter loves her songs.. my son tries to join in but instead of words he usually just ahhhhs... along with her!!
