Since it is her twenty-eith birthday and it is made clear that Emma was 18 when she had Henry, Henry should be a little younger than 10 in the first episode, unless he and Emma have the same birthday. This seems unlikely sine it was never mentioned. In "The Cricket Game" (middle of season 2), Henry is 11. However, it is only 5-6 months after "Pilot", so Henry should be 10. In the same episode Snow and Charming have sex for the first time in 28 years. It's been at least 28 years and five months since the curse took place. It is unclear how much time passes in season 2. The first half of season two takes place over approximately a week. In "New York City Seranade" Henry is 12. This makes sense because it takes place a year after the previous episode. The rest of the season supposedly takes place over a few days since Snow is already 9 months pregnant when the second curse takes place. It is unlear how much time passes in the first half of season 4. Since Henry is 12 in "New York City Serenade", it should be at least late October 2013. Mother Superior was reported missing on November 6. Assuming this is the same year, the second half of season 3 and first half of season 4 take place over 2 weeks. This seems illogical. It seems even more illogical that the events take place over a year. Assuming everything I stated is correct, we are currently either at early 2014 or early 2015 making Henry 12 or 13. There is a huge lack of date continuity in this show. I'd say it's early 2014 and Henry is around 12-13. Maybe Emma was 17 (teen pregnancy) and then Henry was 10. Middle of season 2 is a good deal after around the summer of 2012, since they were way past Februrary due to celebrating Valentines Day. Then season 3b was only for a few weeks and that was like Fall 2013, then 4a in late 2013 and then 4b in early 2014.
