Answer to Question 1

Infants can distinguish one object from two and two objects from three. They can add and subtract using simple means which are unlike the processes that older children use to count. There are three basic principles of counting: (1) One-to-one principle: There must be one and only one number name for each object that is counted. (2) Stable-order principle: Number names must be counted in the same order. (3) Cardinality principle: the last number name differs from the previous ones in a counting sequence by denoting the number of objects.
