The Sensor motor Stage

Ages: Birth to 2 Years

  • Children learn about the world through basic actions such as sucking, grasping, looking, and listening

 Infants learn that things continue to exist even though they cannot be seen

  • (object permanence)

 The Preoperational Stage

Ages: 2 to 7 Years

  • Children begin to think symbolically and learn to use words and pictures to represent objects. 
  • Children at this stage tend to be egocentric and struggle to see things from the perspective of others. 
  • While they are getting better with language and thinking, they still tend to think about things in very concrete terms.
