1. Toddlers play "side by side," while preschoolers play cooperatively.

2. Toddlers play house and imitate adult roles, while preschoolers become the "mom or dad" while playing house.

3. Toddlers play cooperatively, while preschoolers play interactive games.

4. There are no differences between toddlers and preschoolers, since both play cooperatively.
