Child Observation Deathra S. Anthony PSYC 221 Liberty University Child Observation For my child observation, I observed a girl 2 year old named Rylee while I was helping to decorate for my sister’s bridal shower. She is the youngest of 4 children.

For the observation, I used my seven-year-old niece. The observation took place at a park. The theory that I chose as a base for the observation is Erik Erikson’s Theory of Development, in which my focus was on the stage of industry versus inferiority.

Most of the families who enroll their children in the school are graduate students or faculty at the nearby campus, and the director is a graduate student in the master's program in education. There are eight 4-and 5-year old children in the group, and

do not expect high levels of performance in most kids in this age group because the development of their memory and complex thinking patterns is still limited. As usual, there are exceptions to every rule. I know some of them personally. If your child is one of those rare cases, celebrate the fact that he is ahead of schedule, let his talent age for a while like a good wine, and be careful not to feel the need for speed or to rush him quickly forward. In general, these activities are hard to grasp
