Answer 1

D) Pre-operational thought

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Piaget, a 3-year-old is in the pre-operational phase. In children aged 3 months, the primary circular reaction is seen.

Secondary schema synchronization is found among children at the age of 10 months.

Among infants between 12 and 15 months of age, tertiary circular reaction is seen.
