Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

This is the third stage in Piaget's theory of cognitive development. It is characterised by the development of logical thought, and usually occurs around age 7.

This stage should be taken as a transition to deeper levels of thinking, as children still might present a concrete (rigid) reasoning. However, it is here where children develop their understanding of abstract or hypothetical concepts .
