Young Children's Comprehension of Pretend Episodes: The Integration of Successive Actions.
Harris, Paul L.; And Others
Child Development, v65 n1 p16-30 Feb 1994
Three experiments examined 24- though 39-month-olds' understanding of pretend episodes, such as a puppet pouring pretend milk into a container and then tipping it over a toy animal. The children understood the linkage between the two actions and realized that the toy animal would become "wet." (MDM)
