Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The average age of menarche is 12 years 9.5 months in North American girls, with a normal range of 10 1/2 to 15 years. Ages 11 1/2, 13 1/2, and 14 are within the normal range for menarche, but these are not the average ages.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, E
School-age children become fascinated with complex board, card, or computer games that they can play alone, with a best friend, or with a group. They also enjoy sewing, cooking, carpentry, gardening, and creative activities such as painting. Jack-in-the-box and stuffed animals would be appropriate for a toddler or preschool child.
