Piaget thought that from birth to the age of two, the child is a sensory being, and information is absorbed through sensory and motor activities. Piaget called this stage Sensori-motor. Piaget further broke this stage down into six sub-stages. The first sub-stage (birth-1 month), month one, the child does not show any real learning, simply adaptation, and its primary concern is refining its reflexes.

In the following sub-stage (1-4 months), the child refines its circular reactions, where they learn from r

The third sub-stage (4-10 months) involves secondary circular reactions, where they enjoy repetition-involving manipulation of their environment. At this point in their development, they understand that they are the ones causing the change in their surroundings. The child begins to reach for things, they grab things and bring them closer to the eyes and mouth. In this stage object permanence appears. For example, if an object is halfway hidden, the child will search for the whole item.

The next stage is Concrete Operations (7-11 years). As opposed to Preoperational children, children in the concrete operations stage are able to take another's point of view and take into account more than one perspective. They can also represent transformations as well as static situations. Although they can understand concrete problems, they cannot yet perform on abstract proble
