If exhibited by a pregnant woman, what represents a positive sign of pregnancy?

Choice A rationale:
Kimberly and Amanda sharing clay to each make things represents cooperative play, not parallel play. Cooperative play involves interaction and collaboration between children, whereas parallel play involves children playing side by side without interacting.
Choice B rationale:
Brian playing with his truck next to Kristina playing with her truck demonstrates parallel play. In parallel play, children play independently but alongside others, showing interest in what others are doing but without direct interaction.
Choice C rationale:
Adam playing a board game with Kyle, Steven, and Erich represents cooperative play, not parallel play. Cooperative play involves shared activities and collaboration, while parallel play involves independent activities in proximity to others.
Choice D rationale:
Danielle playing with a music box on her mother's lap is an example of solitary play, where a child plays alone without regard to others. Solitary play is common in younger children and is different from parallel play.
