Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Adults facilitate infant learning by planning activities that promote the development of milestones and by providing toys that are safe for the infant to explore with the mouth and manipulate with the hands, such as rattles, wooden blocks, plastic stacking rings, squeezable stuffed animals, and busy boxes. For the toddler (not the infant), television, videos, electronic games, and computer programs help support development and learning of basic skills. Infants are not capable of participating in small group activities. By age 4, children play in groups of two or three. Adults should provide toys that are safe for the infant to explore with the mouth. Small, plastic letters and magnets could be choking hazards for an infant.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The nurse should intervene when parents let infants and toddlers ride in a front-facing car seat. All infants and toddlers should ride in a rear-facing car safety seat until they are 2 years of age or until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by the manufacturer or their car safety seat. Parents also need to inspect an older crib to make sure the slats are no more than 6 cm (2.4 inches) apart. Instruct parents to remove mobiles as soon as the infant is able to reach them. By 8 months, most infants are able to differentiate a stranger from a familiar person and respond differently to the two; this is a normal finding.
