Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A 3-year-old should be able to ride a tricycle, so a 5-year-old unable to perform this task needs further assessment. The other activities are appropriate for each child's age.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Infants should not sleep in the same bed as their parents because of the risk of suffocation. The other actions are appropriate.
