Life Span Development

In the book, "Curious George rides a bike" by H.A. Rey, George receives a new bike from his friend.

This is an example of Stage 3, the conventional level, Kohlberg.

I have another example of the preoperational stage not related to the book. My little sister, Zoë, is 4 years old. My mother recently bought her a personalized song tape. In the beginning of the tape it asks her to yell out her name. She screams, "Zoë!!". Then it says "Zoë?! That's a nice name!" Throughout the tape her name is included in all of the songs. She thinks that the person talking can really here her!

The last book that I read was "Curious George" by H.A. Rey. George is taken from his home in Africa, to a bi
