A nurse is teaching car seat safety to a parent of an infant who weighs 4.5 kg (10 lb). Which of the following car seat positions should the nurse include in the teaching?

A. Acts out roles of other peoplE. Preschoolers often engage in imaginative play and enjoy pretending to be other people or characters. This type of play allows them to explore different roles and scenarios, fostering creativity and social development.

B. Plans activities and makes up games: Preschoolers are becoming more independent and enjoy planning and organizing their activities. They may invent their own games, stories, or

imaginative scenarios, demonstrating their growing cognitive abilities and creativity.

C. Initiates activities with others: Preschoolers are becoming more social and enjoy interacting with peers and adults. They may take the initiative to start games, activities, or conversations with others, demonstrating their growing confidence and social skills.

D. Engages in parallel play with peers: Parallel play, where children play alongside but not directly with each other, is more typical of toddlers than preschoolers. Preschoolers are more

likely to engage in cooperative play, where they interact and play together with peers toward a common goal.

A. Change the routine of the preschooler often to stimulate initiativE. While providing variety and new experiences is important for stimulating a child's curiosity and creativity, abruptly changing routines too often can disrupt the child's sense of security and stability. Consistency in routines helps preschoolers feel secure and understand expectations.

B. Do not set limits on the preschooler's behavior as this results in low self-esteem: Setting appropriate limits and boundaries is essential for preschoolers to develop a sense of security and learn socially acceptable behavior. However, overly strict or rigid limits can stifle initiative and creativity. It's important for parents to strike a balance between setting limits and allowing for exploration and initiative.

C. As a parent, decide how and with whom the child will play: Encouraging preschoolers to

make their own choices about play activities and playmates fosters independence and initiative. Parents should provide opportunities for free play and exploration within safe boundaries,

allowing the child to make decisions and learn from their experiences.

D. Reward the child for initiative in order to build self-esteem: Positive reinforcement for initiative-taking behavior encourages preschoolers to explore their environment, try new

activities, and develop confidence in their abilities. By praising and acknowledging their efforts, parents can help build their child's self-esteem and motivation to take on new challenges.
