Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
A 2-year-old child uses short sentences to express independence and control, does not under-stand the concepts of right and wrong, may engage in solitary play and begin to participate in parallel play, may initiate play with other children, and has a vocabulary up to 300 words.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
Preschool children may cooperate if they are allowed to manipulate the equipment. A preschooler is unable to take responsibility for his or her own preoperative hygienic care.
Leaving the preschooler alone may increase the child's anxiety. Magazines and puzzles would be more appropriate activities for the older child. The preschool child likes to engage in pretend play, using their imagination and imitating adult behavior.
