Explanation:

Jean Piaget was a Swiss physiologist who is well known for his theory of cognitive development which is divided into four developmental stages and the second stage among them is the Pre-operational stage. It is the second stage in which children between the age of approx two and seven years make understanding of the world around them.

At this stage, children start to think in images and symbols but they cannot understand the concrete logic behind it. At this stage, they start to indulge in role-playing and pretending. However, ego-centrism resists them to accept the viewpoint of others.
