Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The nurse should provide the child with equipment that has been used with them. The child may poke at a doll with a syringe without a needle or with a small rubber tube attached to simulate a needle or enjoy giving it a shot since this is the child's experience. The child does not have a cast and does not have bandages. An anatomically correct puppet is not necessary for the child who receives daily injections.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Telegraphic speech is common in the 3-year-old. Telegraphic speech refers to speech that contains only the essential words to get the point across, much like a telegram. In telegraphic speech the nouns and verbs are present and are verbalized in the appropriate order. Echolalia (repetition of words and phrases without understanding) normally occurs in toddlers younger than 30 months of age. Why and what questions dominate the older toddler's language. Stuttering usually has its onset at between 2 and 4 years of age. It occurs more often in boys than in girls. About 75 of all cases of stuttering resolve within 1 to 2 years after they start.
