Four year olds usually play happily with other children enjoying physical games as well as stories.

They often develop favourite games like ‘mummies and daddies’ and ‘superman’, allowing them to try out various adult roles.
I was able to use narrative observation to gather lots of information on J.W, which helped me to gain a full and holistic picture of her development. Using this method was very useful but it also had its flaws; J.W would move around areas quickly and would often speak quietly, which meant at times I could not fully understand some of her language. She would also get distracted when the noise levels in the room increased. Target Child observation identified what activity J.W did over a period of time, any language that she used and her social interaction with others. It identified that J.W spends a lot of time interacting with adults, as well as children and that she displayed a happy mood throughout the observation.

But at times, making light of certain situations can lead to hurt feelings. There is a clear difference between having a laugh with your friends and having them laugh at someone or at you. Though the line between bullying and having a laugh is too often crossed. For example, from a personal stance, when i laugh, it feels like the weight of my shoulder, is slowly lifted, as if i forget about my three AP classes and SATs, or any misery a teenage girl can have. You can't be angry while laughing.
