I can think of two:

  1. Speaking multiple languages, and
  2. Perfect pitch

Both are more easily learned at a young age. Are there others?

Social skills.

Its a lot harder to fix poor social skills as an adult than it is when youre a kid.

Absolutely this.

Too few role models on how to act like a well-adjusted and reasonable person. When the smallest social misconduct happens today it's like people want to either explode into a fit of rage or implode into this crying mess.

Getting a good eye on priority comes from socializing out in the world and or volunteering your time and energy for something that doesn't pay you money but helps someone in need. It can teach so much at such a young age because you're surrounded by some of the best and worst people you'll ever meet.
