Identify the developmental stage
Piaget: Preoperational Stage Erikson: Autonomy vs. shame and doubt
Piaget
Preschoolers are still in the preoperational phase of cognitive development. They participate in preconceptual thought (from 2 to 4 years of age) and intuitive thought (from 4 to 7 years of age).
Intuitive thought
Preschoolers can classify information and become aware of cause-and-effect relationships.
4 years old
Skips and hops on one foot; Throws ball overhead.
Time
The preschooler begins to understand the concepts of the past, present, and future. By the end of the preschool years, the child may comprehend days of the week.
Weight
The preschooler should gain about 2 to 3 kg (4.5 to 6.5 lb) per year.
Height
The preschooler should grow about 6.2 to 7.5 cm (2.5 to 3 inches) per year.
Language
The preschooler's vocabulary continues to increase. The preschoolers can now speak in sentences, is able to identify colors, and enjoys talking.
Nutrition
Toddlers begin developing taste preferences, and are generally picky eaters who repeatedly request their favorite foods.Physiologic anorexia occurs, resulting in toddlers becoming fussy eaters because of a decreased appetite. Toddlers should consume 24 to 30 oz of milk per day, and may switch from drinking whole milk to drinking low-fat milk after 2 years of age. Juice consumption should be limited to 4 to 6 oz per day. Trans fatty acids and saturated fats should be avoided. Diet should include 1 cup of fruit daily. Food serving size should be 1 tbsp for each year of age, or ¼ to 1/3 of an adult portion. Toddlers generally prefer finger foods because of increasing autonomy. Regular meal times and nutritious snacks best meet nutrient needs. Snacks or desserts that are high in sugar, fat, or sodium should be avoided.Foods that are potential choking hazards (nuts, grapes, hot dogs, peanut butter, raw carrots, tough meats, popcorn) should be avoided. Adult supervision should always be provided during snack and mealtimes. Foods should be cut into small, bite-size pieces to make them easier to swallow and to prevent choking. Toddlers should not be allowed to engage in drinking or eating during play activities or while lying down.

Identify all physical development that occurs in this stage
• Anterior fontanels close by 18 months of age. • Weight - At 30 months of age, toddlers should weigh four times their birth weights. • Height - Toddlers grow about 7.5 cm (3 in) per year. • Head circumference and chest circumference are usually equal by 1 to 2 years of age
Identify the cognitive development that occurs in this stage
• Piaget - The sensorimotor stage transitions to the preoperational stage around the age of 19 to 24 months. • The concept of object permanence becomes fully developed. • Toddlers have and demonstrate memories of events that relate to them. • Domestic mimicry (playing house) is evident. • Preoperational thought does not allow for toddlers to understand other viewpoints, but it does allow them to symbolize objects and people to imitate previously seen activities
Psychosocial Development: Erikson- Autonomy versus Shame and Doubt
■ Independence is paramount for toddlers, who are attempting to do everything for themselves. ■ Toddlers often use negativism, or negative responses, as they begin to express their independence. ■ Ritualism, or maintaining routines and reliability, provides a sense of comfort for toddlers as they begin to explore the environment beyond those most familiar to them.
