A child learns of the color yellow by first seeing it several times and understanding how it is different from other colors she sees. Then, she hears her parents use the word "yellow" in association with that colored-object, and thus, she learns how to name the concept. From this example, we can see how sensation can be used to acquire knowledge and learning. Also, Locke argued that the pre-existing child will born without any innate ideas at all, which require him to use his sensation to learn different ideas and concepts.
