Final answer:

Children usually recognize their reflection in the mirror at around 18 months old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Children typically recognize their reflection in the mirror around 18 months old. At this age, they can touch their own noses when seeing paint on their faces and can name or point to themselves in pictures. This self-recognition is an important milestone in their development of a positive sense of self.
