Rationale 3: The preconceptual phase, 2 to 4 years, is when the child uses an egocentric approach to accommodate the demands of an environment.
Rationale 4: The concrete operations phase, 7 to 11 years, is where the child is able to solve concrete problems and begins to understand relationships such as size, right, and left, and is cognizant of viewpoints.
