A child does not truly understand the concept of sharing until about age 5, says Sara Lise Raff, an educational consultant and mom of three. "However, a child can be taught to understand some basic rules. such as waiting your turn ('she goes, then you go'), if you walk away from a toy it is open for anyone else to play with, and if you bring your toy to a playdate, then everyone there gets to play with it."

When my grand daughter was two years old I showed her that if she wanted something her baby brother had she needed to give him something to take its place. It works well even now that she is 3 and he is 20 months.
