2 Discussion Post 6 months old Infants in Piaget's sensorimotor stage, which begins at six months of age, exhibit developing object permanence and sensory exploration ( Babakr et al. 2019) . Toys that stimulate their senses and help them develop their motor skills captivate them. A soft ball of multitextured fabric with contrasting colors and a rattle inside would be suitable for this age range. This toy encourages grabbing and shaking actions while stimulating their touch and visual senses. Learning to coordinate hand movements helps them develop both fine and gross motor skills. Because they learn that their actions affect the toy to move and make sounds, Piaget claims that this type of sensory play aids in the understanding of cause and effect in young children. Figure 1 : Baby Rattle Toys Six-month-olds go through a psychosocial stage called "trust versus mistrust," in which they learn to trust their caretakers based on how responsive they are. Through cooperative play,

3 the selected toy encourages constructive interactions between the baby and the caregiver. They feel safe and trusting in their surroundings because of the textures and softness. Healthy emotional development is based on this fundamental trust. 4 years old Children are at Piaget's preoperational stage at age four, which is characterized by symbolic play and thinking ( Günal & TUFAN, 2019) . The perfect toy would be a set of construction blocks in various sizes, shapes, and colors. With the help of this toy, kids may play imaginatively and build a variety of constructions and scenarios. As kids work with the blocks, it also enhances hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness. Piaget asserts that this kind of play fosters the development of cognitive abilities, such as spatial reasoning and problem-solving, which are essential at this developmental stage.

4 For four-year-olds, Erikson's psychological stage is initiative versus guilt. Children are ready to show their independence and take on new challenges at this age. They can express their imagination and take the initiative to create their own imaginary worlds thanks to building blocks. Building anything successfully gives one a sense of accomplishment, which enhances one's self-worth and encourages initiative. 8 years old Logic and strategy toys are appropriate for eight-year-olds who are at Piaget's concrete operational stage. A code breaker toy that promotes planning, problem-solving, and critical thinking toy is appropriate for this stage. It fosters the growth of logical reasoning abilities in kids by getting them to think in an organized, rule-based way. As adolescents can now think abstractly and comprehend rules in a methodical way, Piaget says that this kind of work fits with their cognitive powers. Figure 3 : Codebreaker Industry versus inferiority is the psychosocial stage identified by Erikson for eight-year- olds. They are becoming more confident in their ability and skill mastery ( Sortino , 2020) . They

5 can practice and hone these abilities by playing the Code breaker game, a game that demands patience, focus, and strategic thinking. Gaining success in the game increases their confidence and self-worth by fostering a sense of industry.
