She loves learning but I’m out of ideas. I don’t know what I could teach more. Any suggestions?
My 3 year old can count, write, read words with up to 4 letters, knows colors, shapes, vegetable/fruits , animals and their habitats. She can also do basic chores.

Spell words. Some kids can read but if you ask to spell, they can’t. Harder words that is
Play is the best learning at that age.

Just expand on her current knowledge. Practice it all to further her understanding. Because I can almost guarantee she may be able to do these things but the concepts won’t be secure.

She’s a sponge, teach everything. Another language, to cook, bake, play with legos, art. They even have YouTube videos that teach children how to draw. Sing, play an instrument, dance classes. Read every single day. Immerse her in everything. Take her to the zoo, museums, the park. Even a simple walk around the neighborhood is a learning experience. Teach her about plants, trees, sun and water and how things grow. Start a garden. There’s so much to learn

Letter sounds, sight world, capital letters vs lowercase.
Definitely get her started on other languages as well as the kindergarten work books. I wouldn’t mess with the preschool ones if she knows all that already!
Music… teach how to read it, play classical… teach how to play instruments, piano, guitar, violin, cello, drums , flute, there’s so many to choose from. Teach social skills… play, share and except everyone. Start showing her how to bake , cook.
Try something like this! Spelling and still playing!

Teach her how to count money etc. Get her involved with the bills in the house (obviously not to pay) 
but to her it would be a riddle figuring out what money to put where.
Basic math, teach her how to draw show her something and see if she can copy it just by looking at it and draw it, take her outside and teach her about plants and the weather, show her the mechanics of a car how to change oil how to do minor maintenance never too early to start on that I say
Follow her interests and go more in depth in those areas
My son is 5 and was at that level. Now he knows multiplication, division, square roots, and cube roots. He reads and writes with ease. Numberblocks is a great show to get them into and get them the matching toy blocks. My father is a scientist and did experiments with him this past weekend with acids and bases, then with pure lithium and sodium and water to show reactive traits. Just keep showing everything around you as you go

Bigger words
Bigger numbers
I’ve taught mine in Spanish and Hindi. Other languages are a plus.
Talk to her, not as if she’s a kid but as an adult and if she needs more of an explanation give her one that would be best fitted for her age and maybe put labels on everything and help her with the words
Get her reading books in a Reading Scheme, ideally one that’s based on frequency of words. You can teach reading skills such as how to work out unfamiliar words (familiar letters, making sense, sounding out) which will open up so much to them. It’s also been shown that this provides a huge academic advantage which is rarely caught up on. It really isn’t too early.
My 3yo got into Pre-k and she also knew a lot except the Alphabet in lowercase which I found funny cause she can also spell out her name so I suggest the lowercase alphabet
Teach address and both parents (main caregivers) full names and phone numbers, that would be really great to know in case of an accident

Always room for improvement in all of those skills, teach her to count higher, teach her bigger words, practice more reading etc. Whenever my 2 year old gets to where I want her I keep trying to surpass that level lol.

Simple math, ASL, second language, music, cooking, is this a serious question… So many possibilities
I did math…adding subtract multiply. I had my son spelling everything… I spelled whole paragraphs and had his pick words he knew. Helped with laundry. Making grocery list. Started teaching him money. I started working his curious mind since he was just under two…he asked why about everything. He started 4k an teacher said there was nothing hr could teach him because he was at a kindergarten almost 1st grade level. In kindergarten to keep him busy he was getting 1st 2nd grade work. In 1st he was virtual-pandemic so there were no limits. 2nd grade he is back in class and he learning at 4th and 5th grade level. There is no limit to what u can teach. Their minds are sucking up everything.I don’t do cartoon. I put on discovery, nature, anything to learn.
She is off to a great start. It’s important to work on sharing, taking turns, using words to express emotions, etc… advanced children can tend to become frustrated with their peers because they are on a different level. They tend to want to hang with adults/older kids. So having peers to interact with can help. The other learning suggestions are fantastic. Also remember to praise effort and hard work because these kids tend to hear “you’re so smart” so often that when something is difficult or can’t be achieved quickly they will shy away or be defiant.

My oldest was the same way. He was reading books meant for 1-2 grade before his 4th birthday. In my expirence it didn’t turn out good. Once he got in school he became a target of teachers & kids. He’s 21 & still remembers his kindergarten teacher for her cruelty. She’d often make comments like “you don’t belong here”, “you shouldn’t know that”. She’s tell me he’s a disruption when in reality he was quiet & reserved. Her version of “disruption” was him answering questions, asking what he could do expecting to be challenged etc. If another kid did something wrong she’ll tell at my son (I was there for a few of these) telling him hes so smart he should’ve stopped the kid. His eagerness to learn stopped in kindergarten. He stopped showing how smart he was, withdrew socially, was self harming in highschool. If I could go back I never would’ve taught him anything before school.

Social skills, school skills and imagination. She can know multiplication and reading chapter books by kindergarten but if she doesn’t know how to play, use her imagination, stand in line, share and socialize she will have a hard time. Honestly might have a hard time anyway since she will probably be bored in kindergarten. But if she doesn’t know basic child things she’s going to hate school because 1. Its boring since she already knows everything and for 2. She will be getting in trouble for basic things like talking out of turn, getting out of line, not sharing and being unintentionally mean to other kids

I agree with address, phone number, parents names. My son is 5 and I regret we didn’t teach him earlier. Lol I also agree with social skills. My son doesn’t have this problem but I see it my niece and fiancés nephew. Some kids are so shy and won’t make that first connection. When my son was 3/4, he was able to hold a conversation with adults. Social skills are my pick too

Fine motor, social and emotional skills, reading
Continue with reading. But focus on her social and emotional competence. Sharing, turn taking, waiting- able to cope if someone doesn’t want to play with her, occupy herself, independent in the playground, resilient.
This is pretty typical learning and development for 3-4 year olds. I’ve been teaching that age for around 19 years now

Learning with knowing your learning can be fun for kids. I always included mine in the kitchen. Helping cook and bake. Counting how many cups of flour. Pouring and mixing. It teaches them how to cook and clean up their mess bu also measuring and counting.
Just doing things with them. Coloring, puzzles, hanging out, playing games and cards, walks with I spy…
