Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A 4-year-old child understands time in relation to events such as meals. Children perceive soon as a very short time. The nurse may lose the child's trust if his parents do not return in the time he perceives as soon. Children cannot read or use a clock for practical purposes until age 7 years. I will tell you every time I see you how much longer it will be assumes the child understands the concepts of hours and minutes, which are not developed until age 5 or 6 years.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Three-year-olds are able to accomplish this gross motor skill. Jumping rope, riding a two-wheel bicycle, and skipping on alternate feet are gross motor skills of 5-year-olds.
