Part 1:14:30 Min
Childs age: 3 months
Activity: playing with rattle toys
Analysis and contrast
As seen in this particular scene, the father stands over Mari and vigorously shakes a rattle over
her face. This done while he is talking over the phone and also allows Mari to crawl bout since
he is literally distracted. The rattle makes Mari excited this growing her emotions.
The psychological speculations of youngster advancement center on how a tyke's points of view
change through the span of adolescence. Extraordinary compared to other realized psychological
speculations is Jean Piaget's hypothesis of subjective improvement.
Ideas, for example, patterns, egocentrism, convenience, and osmosis are key to Piaget's
hypothesis. Each phase of advancement is set apart by particular changes in how youngsters
consider themselves, others and the world.
In Piaget's theory there are:
1. The Sensorimotor Stage, which happens right off the bat in life between the times of birth
and two. Amid this time, a tyke finds out about the world through their tangible observations and
engine collaborations (Martin, 2012). It is a period of surprising psychological change as
youngsters gain a lot of information about their general surroundings. Gross motor skills are
developed as Bayar is swindled and other childlike Mari, Ponijao are seen to start wriggling,
crawling and attempting to stand.

The child bracket is between ages of zero and 2 years. This child experiences the life through the
utilization of self-senses and movement. In this case the child seem to develop object
performance having the ability to understand that object often are in existence. They also begin
to understand clearly that their immediate actions can result to other actions. This involves a goal
directed behavior. The child in the video at this level is able to reverse actions and could not
literally reverse thinking. Mari and Hattie are exposed to a modern environment playing with
decent toys and computers in order to learn and develop.
In comparison, Bayar and Ponijao in Namibia are in another environment interacting and playing
with nature such as sticks and small animals. The director of babies documentary Thomas
Balemes shows that a child usually behave on his own learning environment. Children also
develops various schemes that are highly mental indications of various individuals, objects and
ideological representations. These can be changed through assimilation and also accommodation.
Vygotsky theory
Stage: Child responding to surrounding
In contrast Lev Vygotsky issued a different opinion to Piaget’s stages of child development. This
is through his socio-cultural theory of development. It indicates that children develop through
social interactions and existing culture which is very distinct from Piagets that state that children
learn on their environment. He indicates that culture shapes children cognitive development.
Mari and Hattie are in a different environment and culture from Ponijao in Namibia and
Bayar.Ponijao is often seen grabbing rock while Bayar pulling tissues .Mari in japan plays with
sticker and other manipulatives.This is also seen as physical development which makes them

have various abilities to explore and interact with the world around them as indicated by
Vygotsky theory of child responding to surrounding.
In contrasts Vygotsky uses scaffolding principle which shows that children are given a clue on
how to solve the problem in order to make better problem solving skills in future. However
Piaget would assume that children does not have mental structures yet required to solve
challenges. Thus Vygotsky in this case issues various encouragement strategies to solve the
children’s problem. Private speech as language development is also a principle in Lev Vygotsian
theory of child development. It utilizes private guide actions and help to thinking levels. In
contrast Piagets argues that private speech is quite egocentric while Vygotsky argues on
significance of speech. He also indicates the significance of various vital cultural tools in
children cognition.
Recommendation
The main recommendation is children interactive play activity.
The Rattle and mat play play is much recommended since it enables children to [lay together and
become more socially interactive.
Both piaget and Vygotsky believes that there exist difficulties in proximal development out of
the range of children basic understanding.Conversely,in contrasts,Liv Vygotsky argues that when
children are provided with efficient care and aid, they would perform actions effectively while
piagets considers them to be out of the child mental roles (Masten, & Narayan,2012).
