Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Use a transitional object at bedtime. A parent of an 18-month-old toddler asks the nurse if the baby’s pacifier can be coated with honey, because it is good for the immune health. What should the nurse tell the parent? Honey should not be given to infants.

Detailed explanation-2: -From 4 to 5 years old, your child’s gross motor skills (using their arms and legs to move and play) and their fine motor skills (working on crafts and puzzles) are still developing. Play time becomes increasingly imaginative and is an important part of children’s growth.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the preconventional stage, morals are thought to be motivated by punishment and reward. If the child is obedient and is not punished, then the child is being moral. The child sees actions as good or bad. If the child’s actions are good, the child is praised.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nurse would anticipate that a preschool-age child would have highly imaginative thoughts, according to Erikson. Being engaged in tasks and wanting to participate in organized activities is expected for the school-age child.
