that children’s thinking develops through a fixed set of stages. Finally‚ this essay will discuss how the later researchers have questioned Piaget’s theory. Hughes and Grieve (1980) have carried out new investigations by using ‘make sense’（cited in ED209 2005 Chapter 2‚ p.70）to the children.

Why is play with siblings and peers important for children’s development? For some time play has been considered a vital activity for children in enabling them to develop and practice real social skills in a safe setting.
