My sister skipped 5th grade and later when on to college at the age of 16. She loved books, school, learning and is now a professor. It worked for her great!
On the other hand, my 5th grade teacher told my parents that I should skip 5th grade. My parents and my teacher asked me and since I love sports, people, social stuff, etc., I did not want to skip a grade. I did not skip and it worked out for me.
So, I think it really depends on the child, the child's likes and wants, the level of boredom, and WHAT THE CHILD WANTS>
I know she is really young, but ask her!
