Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, D
Auditory stimulation appropriate for a 2-month-old infant includes talking to the infant, playing a music box, and giving the infant a small-handled clear rattle. Placing a squeaky doll in the crib is appropriate for an infant 6 months of age or older.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, D, E
Anticipatory guidance for a 7-month-old infant to prevent a suffocation injury takes into account that the infant will become more active and eventually crawl, cruise, and walk. Used containers of poisonous substances should be discarded, cosmetic and personal products should be kept out of the child's reach, and paint for furniture or toys should be lead free. Plants should be hung out of reach or placed on a high shelf. Medications should be locked, not just placed in a cupboard.
