Compare and Contrast The Cognitive Development of INFANTS and PRESCHOOL

Infants and toddlers develop object permanence and grasping skills, while preschoolers gain dramatic increases in language and pretend play, as well as the ability to represent objects and events from their own point of view. Preschoolers also attribute human traits to objects and expand vocabulary through fast mapping, though neither inductive nor deductive reasoning is fully developed.
