The symbolic function substage (2-4 yrs.) is when the child is able to use representational thought. This ability allows them to advance in their language development because letter and words are symbols that stand for sounds and words, respectively. They also pretend that various objects are something else, such as using two coasters as bread for a sandwich. The intuitive thought substage (4-7) – is characterized by asking "why." They are curious at this stage, but they can't explain how they know what they know.
