Answer to Question 1

Examples can vary. One example is guiding a child doing a puzzle by placing the correct piece close to the child or suggesting the child looks for a piece of a certain color or shape. Another example is riding a bike. The adult puts on the training wheels, holds the handles and runs with the bike to transition the child into full riding.

Answer to Question 2
