pre-operational stage
There are two substages characterized in the preoperational stage, in Piaget's theory of Cognitive Development
The Pre-conceptual sub-stage occurs between about the ages of 2 and 4. The child is able to formulate designs of objects that are not present. Other examples of mental abilities are language and pretend play. Although there is an advancement in progress, there are still limitations such as egocentrism and animism. Egocentrism occurs when a child can’t distinguish between their own perspective and another person's. They tend to pick their own view of what they see rather than the actual view shown to others.
The Intuitive Thought sub-stage occurs between 4 and 7. Children tend to grow very curious and ask many questions; they begin the use of primitive reasoning. There is an emergency in the interest of reasoning and wanting to know why things are the way they are. Piaget called it the Intuitive sub-stage because children realize they have a vast amount of knowledge but don’t know how they know it. In Preoperational thought, centration is the act of focusing all attention on a single characteristic compared to the others.
