He believes that children observe adults and other children for the correct way to communicate and repeat the actions they have seen until they get it right. We support this at nursery by speaking clearly and simply and nodding or praising a child for getting a word, sentence or request correct. This is to encourage them to use the correct terms when they wish to communicate. The theorist whose theory is intellectual development is Lev Vygotsky. His theory is that children learn new skills by being guided by cares and parents.
Piaget's Theory According to Piaget, children in the earliest stages of life, from birth to 2 years, exist in a sensory-motor stage, where they learn to move and operate their bodies as well as begin to understand simple symbols. In this early stage, children are curious about their environment and begin to learn how to interpret it in sensible ways. The next stage is called preoperational thought and lasts from the ages of 2 until 7. In this stage, children develop stable concepts, mental reasoning and imagination. What is distinct and important about Piaget's views is that he considered imagination and play to be crucial to enable every child to develop his own sense of self and to foster healthy learning habits.
Authoritative and Uninvolved 1 An Assessment on the Authoritative and Uninvolved Styles of Parenting Courtney J. Owens ECE 355 Understanding Behavior & Family Dynamics Instructor: Laura Carlee December 20, 2010 Authoritative and Uninvolved 2 Parenting is a complex activity that includes many specific behaviors that work individually and together to influence child outcomes. Parenting style is often used by parents to control and socialize their children. The adolescent years are critical to the growth and development of a child.

However I will be able to give information on each theory. Erik Erikson proposed a theory of psychosocial development. He believed development occurs throughout the life span. His theory provided new insights into the formation of a healthy personality.
Cognitive development focuses on how well the child processes information and can develop the processes around them, it connects the child’s thoughts through the movements they make. Psychoanalytical development believes that the Childs development and behaviours are driven by their unconscious thoughts and the Childs development is determined by events they experience in their early life. Humanist’s development is being aware that the child’s basic needs are being met and when met the child can build solid foundations to develop successfully and form positive relationships throughout their life and having a positive opinion of themselves with good self
Playing and learning in children’s education E1/A In (appendices 1), the Nursery World article written by Fisher. J (2012) talks about how the role of the practitioner should plan for a balance between adult –led learning and child –led learning. This means that the adult needs to observe children closely to see how they are developing. When the practitioner stands back during child-led play, they can gain lots of information about a child, how they use their environments and resources. This helps to meet their learning needs if the practitioner then uses this information to plan the next steps.
Bowlby’s primary thesis is that the success of all relationships or attachments in life is dependent of the success of the first one, namely, of the bond between the infant or small child and his mother or primary caregiver. Attachment behaviors begin early in life. This narrow age limit is often called the critical period. It has become more and more apparent that a healthy attachment is most important in human development. If a child has a secure attachment, he will grow up to view the world as a safe place and will be able to develop other emotions.

The Effects of Healthy Family Systems and Childhood Development Danielle Whitebread HSCO 502- Liberty University Family systems are important in children’s growth and development for many reasons. Murray Bowen, John Bowlby and Erik Erickson’s theories of family systems, attachment and trust describe how family systems are important to a child’s physical, emotional, spiritual and social development. The family systems theory was originally introduced by Dr. Murray Bowen. Dr. Bowen’s theory was used more in the clinical setting as a therapy involving the entire family system. Bowen’s theory explained that instead of one being seen as an individual, they were a part of a larger group; a family system.
