- The child has developed their imagination and creativity by role-playing different scenarios with the doll.
- They have learned about caretaking and empathy by mimicking caregiving actions towards the doll.
For continued development, encourage the child to engage in more physical activities with the doll, such as creating obstacle courses for the doll to navigate or dancing and exercising together. This can further enhance their coordination, motor skills, and imaginative play.
