Spot the Frippet: an infant prodigy.

 Picasso could draw so well at the age of twelve that his father gave up his own career as an artist.

Mozart was writing elegant music at six years old:

The pianist Lang Lang could play The Minute Waltz at the age of five.

Thomas Chatterton was writing in Greek at...I can't remember when, exactly, but it was ridiculously early. Five or six?

But where, you may ask, am I going to spot an infant prodigy today as I go about the place?

It's easy. Just ask any mother of any small child. 

Or the granny.

Spot the Frippet: an infant prodigy. The word infant comes from the Latin infāns which means, literally speechless. Fārī means to speak.

The word prodigy comes from the Latin word prōdigium, an unnatural happening.
