Answer to Question 1

a. Game of hide and seek in the children's outdoor play area
b. Participation in dance activities in the playroom
c. Puppet play in the child's room
d. A walk down to the hospital lobby

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Children between the ages of 12 and 36 months are at risk for anemia because cow's milk is a major component of their diet and it is a poor source of iron. Iron is stored during fetal development, but the amount stored depends on maternal iron stores. Fetal iron stores are usually depleted by age 5 to 6 months. Dietary iron can be introduced by breastfeeding, iron-fortified formula, and cereals during the first 12 months of life.
