Introduction to Psychology

Assignment 8 Chapter 11 (10%)

STEP 1:

Either go to a toy store or find some toys online. Pick 3 toys that would be appropriate for each of the following ages (one toy for each age):

• 6 months old
• 4 years old
• 8 years old

STEP 2:

Describe each toy and its purpose.

• Describe what the toy is and how it works and how possibly children play with it.
• Remember to include a clear picture of each toy in your document.

STEP 3: 

• Describe Piaget’s stage of development at the related age for each toy and explain why the toy you chose is appropriate for that age group. Justify your choice as good as you can. Add as much supporting evidence as you can.
• Describe what is the purpose of the toy from developmental psychology point of view and explain how it contributes to the child’s development at that specific age.
• About 2 paragraphs for each toy.
• Remember not to copy/paste anything, paraphrase everything and write in your own words.
• Use Time New Roman, 12 pt., Double spaced.

• Cite any references that you use, including our own textbook. (Remember that when you are asked to cite your references it means both in-text citation and a reference list, these two are not separate things and they always go hand in hand)

• Be extra careful not to copy information from internet. You must do the toy analysis by yourself and not copying some explanations from toy selling websites, etc.
