CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -When Does Object Permanence Occur? Research by Jean Piaget suggests object permanence develops when a baby is around eight months old. According to Piaget’s stages of development, object permanence is the main goal for the sensorimotor stage.

Detailed explanation-2: -The star of the stage: Object permanence This developmental milestone is a primary goal of the sensorimotor stage. It’s your child’s ability to understand that objects and people continue to exist even when they can’t see them.

Detailed explanation-3: -The main development during the sensorimotor stage is the understanding that objects exist and events occur in the world independently of one’s own actions (’the object concept’, or ‘object permanence’).

Detailed explanation-4: -Coordination Tertiary Circular Reactions (18 to 24 months) The final substage of sensorimotor development results in the full development of object permanence, and it is called coordination of tertiary reactions. At this substage, children can imagine more complex scenarios.

Detailed explanation-5: -Identifying Object Permanence In one version of his experiment, Piaget would hide a toy under a blanket, then observe to see if the infant would search for the object. Some of the infants would appear confused or upset by the loss while other infants would instead look for the object.
