Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Infancy and early childhood are the periods that develops motor skills, sensory systems, and cognitive abilities in an individual. There are three ways to examine the cognitive development. One of the ways is found in the works of Jean Piaget, who developed a theory from detailed observations of children and infants. Piaget believed that children form schemes, as they experience new events and situations. He proposed four distinct stages of cognitive development that occur from infancy to adulthood: the sensorimotor stage, preoperational stage, concrete operations, and formal operations.
