Answer to Question 1

D
Children need to be allowed to develop their imaginations. Over-direction of play can also leave the child feeling insecure. The child should be reminded of the rules but should not continually be told to be careful. The child should be allowed to complete tasks on his own.

Answer to Question 2

4
