Answer to Question 1

A
The experience of preschool is that the child begins to develop a sense of responsibility as he or she chooses friends, activities, and cooperation. Reading skills are not taught in preschool, and children can play with others at home or in other environments.

Answer to Question 2

B
Thumb-sucking is normal, instinctive behavior at this age. This will not harm the teeth as long as it goes away before the second teeth erupt.
