Twenty-five-month-old Allen is placed in front of a mirror with a spot of rouge on his nose. Allen will most likely A) touch his nose to wipe off the spot. B) touch the image of his nose in the mirror to try and wipe the spot off his own nose. C) touch the spot on the mirror because he wonders why that other child has a spot on his nose. D) crawl away from the mirror because he does not recognize himself with the spot on his nose.

17-month-old Amanda keeps running up to the full-length mirror in her parents' room and trying to hug the little girl she sees there. Given what you now know about a child's emotional and social development, explain why Amanda is doing this. (You should also explain why she just recently started doing this, and how her behavior might change over the coming months.)
