I'm NOT going to skip kindy at all. I know how important it is to have
friends of same age. Also, my kid is very social. She talks to every
parent (I'm not kidding) of every child in her class. She knows their
names, how they look, who's having a baby and whether it's a boy or a
girl :)

Why is it so important for her to have friends of the same age rather
than friends one year older? If she converses well with adults, that
could be a sign that she can get along with older children, too.

I'm not asking about how I should skip a level. I just want to know
how to challenge her more because I know she'll withdraw if she's not
challenged.

I think you have recognized a problem but ruled out the obvious
solution.
