From Togetherness to Equal Partnership in Role Play.
Hannikainen, Maritta
Early Child Development and Care, v142 p23-32 Mar 1998
Explored different kinds of participation in play and development of joint role play. Observed games and play sessions of a 2-year-old girl in a day care group. Found that the girl proceeded from a feeling of togetherness in a shared space through parallel and successive play actions to reciprocity and equal exchange of play actions. (JPB)
