Child Psychology Discussion Assignment
For this assignment, you will complete an observation of a child between the ages of 1 and 10. You will write a paper which carefully describes the behavior and discusses that behavior in terms of child developmental psychology.
You can choose to visit a day care or nursery school and observe a randomly chosen child for an hour, or you can choose to observe the child of a friend or family member. Observe different types of play involvement and other interactions. You should be an unbiased observer, meaning that you should not interact with the child yourself. Take note of everything the child says and does, everything that is said or done to the child, and every gesture and facial expression or movement he or she makes.
If you do not have access to a child you can observe, then you can observe a child at play in one of the following videos:
