1st video the child is using cause and effect with the toy by pressing it and dancing to the music
2nd video the child is using learning schemes the child is throwing the toy around singing pushing the basket
3rd video the child in the beginning of the video is using object permanence because recoginzes the toy
Kayla — Thanks for your post! I wonder, did you see any other cognitive skills and processes in the 3 videos?
(Video 1) learning schemes: banging, mouthing, handling, shaking, throwing.
cause and effect: pressing button to make music, spinning wheel.
object prominence: knowing that toys were still on living room floor
use of tools: cry, hand, caregiver, and toys.
imitation: laughing, smiling, cooing.
space and spatial: putting ball in cup.
(Video 2) learning schemes: handling, throwing, pushing.
object prominence: knowing bears were on couch.
use of tools: hand, laundry hamper.
imitation: combining 2 to three word sentences
space and spatial: putting bears in hamper and pushing them
pretend/symbolic play: pretending the hamper is a boat
memory: song play
(Video 3) learning schemes: handling, throwing,
imitation: babbling
space and spatial: going in the box
Deb — Thanks for your thorough response! Did you see symbolic/ pretend play in any of the videos?
1.Concepts reflected on the video:
From learning schemes: the baby bangs, also does some shacking and throwing.
From cause and effect: The baby is pushing buttons to have the music come out of the toy.
From the use of tools: The baby cries, uses hands.
From imitation: The baby laughs and also smiles.
From space and spatial: When the baby puts the ball in the cup.
2.Concepts reflected on the video:
From learning schemes: There is throwing and also pushing.
From object prominence: The baby knew where they toy was
From the use of tools: The baby uses hands and the hamper.
From imitation: The baby is talking
From space and spatial: When he baby puts toys in hamper and pushes
3.Concepts reflected on the video:
From learning schemes: The baby uses hands and throws.
From imitation: The baby tries to talk
From space and spatial: Getting into the box
Juli — Thanks for sharing! Did any of the babies demonstrate problem solving in the videos? How?
1st child is using cause and effect because she started understanding that when you open the kettle it will play music.
2nd child- she was pretending she was a car or a boat and she understands that everyone has to be inside.
3rd child- that baby was using her hands and throwing, the baby was talking and getting into the box
