Toddler color blind?

Question

I know I’m overthinking this. And it’s not that I’m really worried about it, it’s just a thought I had. My son is turning two this weekend, so he’s still really young. But he knows SO much. He knows most animals and the sounds they make, most shapes, the full ABC’s, and how to count to 20. But colors are his downfall! Like I said, I’m really not worried considering he’s so young, but we talk about colors ALL the time and he never seems to get it. Everything is the color green 🤣 
Could this be a sign he is colorblind? I hate thinking that since he has plenty of time to learn colors, but it’s weird to me that he catches on to everything else so quickly but cannot get the hang of even one color. 
Thoughts?

Answer

I worried the same about my son because he couldn’t pick out blue for months. 
Just took time, he’s fine. He knows all the colors now a few months past two. I doubt it’s an issue, color and green are just be association for him right now

Answer

Doubtful.  My daughter is blue/yellow color blind and she still learned her colors, just, what I view as purple is slightly different than what she sees.  She still learned it as purple though.  
Is anyone in either of your families color blind?  Both parents have to carry the gene in order for the child to be color blind.  I am not myself, but my sister is red/green color blind and my father is blue/yellow color blind.
