Logical operation develops. Thinking is experience based. The ages for this stage are __________. (so you should have the name and the ages associated with it)  2. . During Piaget’s ________________________ period, children change from a reflex organism to beings who are capable of thought and language. Ages for this stage are 4  ___________.   3.
