Detailed explanation-1: -Preschoolers are more likely to copy the prosocial actions of a warm, responsive adult than those of a cold, distant adult. Warmth seems to make children more attentive and receptive to the model, and it is itself a model of a prosocial response.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vygotsky sees “private speech” as a means for children to plan activities and strategies and therefore aid their development. Private speech is the use of language for self-regulation of behavior. Language is, therefore, an accelerator to thinking/understanding (Jerome Bruner also views language in this way).
Detailed explanation-3: -According to Vygotsky (1978), much important learning by the child occurs through social interaction with a skillful tutor. The tutor may model behaviors and/or provide verbal instructions for the child. Vygotsky refers to this as cooperative or collaborative dialogue.
Detailed explanation-4: -Most children acquire basic ToM understanding by age 6 (e.g., false belief; Wellman & Liu, 2004), yet there are individual differences in the pace of development during toddlerhood and the preschool years.
