Feedback:
Age-appropriate play for a preschool-age child using materials available to the nurse includes pouring breakfast cereal into a basin so the child can dig, similar to playing in sand. Learning to write may not be fun for the child. Checkers is more appropriate for a school-age child. Preschool-age children might get bored with watching television. They need an activity in which they participate.
