Answer to Question 2

Although children in this stage still show confusion between symbols and the objects
they represent, they are beginning to understand how their own minds work. In
addition, children are beginning to use symbols to represent objects. This is necessary
for the development of language. Children in this stage are beginning to engage in
symbolic or pretend play, which demonstrates advancements in the ability to imagine.
Preschool-aged children are highly egocentric, assuming that others think the same
things they do. They are still unable to understand conservation tasks because they still
show one-dimensional thinking. They are likely to display animism (in which thoughts
and feelings are attributed to inanimate objects) and artificialism (such as believing that
people create thunder).
