Fisher-Price jumperoo (0-18 months) - Piaget's theory suggests that the sensorimotor stage starts from birth to age two. Some of the major cognitive accomplishments during this stage are object permanence, self recognition, deferred imitation, and representational play. (McLeod, Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development 2018)The Fisher-Price Jumperoo Rainforest accommodates these through the various aspects of things on the toy itself. Some ways this is made possible is because the toy is built in with a spinning chair that helps the infant learn object permanence through the infant spinning around to find that there is a new toy and the other has disappeared. Yet when they spin more the toy they once saw is still right there where it was. Self recognition can be learned and developed through the fact that the infant can watch others and even themselves while they play because they're sitting up. The more they can see the more it helps them to realize that they are their own individual self. The toy also helps build schemas through colors, textures, noises, and shapes. A caregiver and or educator could help make more use of the toy with scaffolding by showing the child how to use a specific thing on the toy and its main function. For instance showing them they can bounce by placing your hand on a toy and gently pushing it down and letting them recoil themselves. Another way is showing the infant that they can spin around in the toy by turning them slowly until they start to turn on their own. This also would then show deferred imitation as well. McLeod, S. (2018, June 6). Jean Piaget’s theory of cognitive development . SimplyPsychology. https://www.fwsolutions.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/cognitive- development-theory.pdf Rise and Shine Kitchen (3-6 years) - The rise and shine kitchen targets Piaget's preoperational stage of cognitive development. The major accomplishments that are established during this stage are language; memory and imagination also develops. Children in this stage engage in make-believe play and can grasp relationships between past and future events. However, they may struggle with more complex concepts like cause and effect, and their intelligence tends to be egocentric and intuitive rather than logical (Kendra Cherry, What is Piaget's theory of cognitive development? 2023). The toy accommodates a lot of these, for instance, the kitchen set helps establish language because it encourages children to interact and converse with one another. The toy also helps with memory and imagination because while children play with this set they get a representation of things like food and various appliances around the kitchen and provides opportunities for memory enhancement as children simulate cooking scenarios. The noises of the stove and other objects on the set help the child to imagine what a real pot of water would sound like as it boils. Imagination is also shown through the role play aspect between kids while cooking and imagining that they are making real food in a real kitchen. The toy also helps with engaging in relationships by expressing and understanding them. An adult or educator could incorporate scaffolding by asking open-ended questions to prompt the child's thinking and encourage problem-solving. For instance, they can ask the child what ingredients they need for a specific

dish or how they plan to cook a particular food item. This prompts the child to think critically and creatively. Kendra Cherry, Mse. (2023, October 24). What is Piaget’s theory of cognitive development? Verywell Mind. https://www.verywellmind.com/piagets-stages-of-cognitive- development-2795457
