[Feedback for Answer Choice 1] This statement suggests that children simply acquire greater knowledge and abilities as they age—a purely quantitative view—and does not address qualitative changes. Also, early childhood is defined as birth to age 8 in the book.[Feedback for Correct Answer 2] Children do not simply become larger or obtain more knowledge as they develop. As they develop, they become qualitatively different people, thinking and behaving in uniquely different ways.[Feedback for Answer Choice 3] This statement addresses only one kind of intelligence that occurs in infancy. It does not include other domains, such as physical or social development, or types of thinking that appear after infancy.[Feedback for Answer Choice 4] This statement suggests that all children will acquire skills or knowledge in a fixed order, which is not always the case.[Q2] Which of the following is the best example of a child becoming a qualitatively, not just quantitatively, different person with development?
