Play is important to child development. Children learn about the world through play
The parents of a preschooler tell the nurse that the child frequently plays with other children side by side with the same type of toys but rarely interacts with the other children's toys. Based on the data collected by the nurse, the nurse would most likely contribute this finding to what type of play by the preschooler? A) Solitary play
B) Parallel play
C) Cooperative play
D) Interactive play
B
Feedback:
Toddlers exhibit parallel play, which occurs when two children play side by side with the same or similar toys but do not interact with each other or the other's toy. Solitary play occurs when children play alone with their own toys in the same area as others but without interaction. Solitary play is most common during infancy. Preschoolers begin to play directly with other children. Young school-aged children engage in cooperative and interactive play and may expand the playgroup from two or three children to an entire classroom.
