I kind of remember my son having a blood test after his two year check up. Like a CBC Just to check everything out. and I wondered if it was a yearly thing.

i don't think so unless they are very sick because they are so little

There is one test they do the lead screening but, my son had blood work done when he was 4 because of allergies so if it is something like that then the blood tests for allergies are better and easier on the kids now. If your doctor recommends it to check for other health problems then it is needed but other than that I don't recall any test that were essential at that age.

no my daughter i was told that after 2 they didnt need to get anything done again until 5 when they start school. When my daughter was 4 she went in for a physical before starting preschool, but no more shots or blood withdrawls until 5

For what??? Lead and H&H are probably the only routine ones for that age.

Only if something is suspected that requires monitoring.
