hidden from their view. Infants at this developmental level do not pursue hidden
objects.

permanent and do not search out objects hidden from their view.
C By 9 months of age, an infant will actively search for an object that is out of
sight.

capable of recalling the location of an object not in their view. They first look for
hidden objects around age 9 months.
