Sara Smilansky is a Developmental Theorist who has identified four types of play: Functional play, Constructive play, Dramatic play, and games with rules. Smilansky says that Dramatic play is the most mature type of play because this is the time where children start to understand their surroundings and imitate what they see others doing. The research on play focused on sociodramatic play and the impact it has on children’s learning. In Smilansky’s book ‘The Effects of Sociodramatic play on Disadvantaged
family with two parents and three children notices similar qualities in their children. It is no coincidence that these children have similar personality patterns. Every birth order has a certain personality that is caused by the influence of parents, siblings, or their mental standards for themselves.

the view to something that the individual desires. Vantage points are birth order, gender, and hereditary. For example, an older sibling view of life is that he/she is the first child. The eldest child can never know the experience of the youngest child; he/she only has the outlook of the first born (Sonstegard, 1998). The eldest child may feel dethroned by other siblings, lost, not special anymore, and view life as a horrible tragedy. This is an example of the oldest sibling’s vantage point if it
Whether it 's noticeable or not, the way in which siblings are born can have massive impacts on their lives. Many characteristics set aside by the concept of birth order are known to us already, such as a parent liking one sibling more than the other, parents being more lenient with one sibling, etc. We are able to pick out a person as being the only child or the youngest of the bunch just by talking to them for even a couple of minutes.

Earlier this year, CNN published an online article entitled “Study That Says Firstborns Are Smarter Leads to Debate Among Parents.” The article seeks to summarize a 2015 National Bureau of Economic Research working, then expand on that summary with individual opinions.

intention .I didn’t know what to feel on one side I had so much anger but on the other side I always wanted a younger sibling. After 16 years of my life about to graduate and go off to college finding out you’re going to have a baby sister is a shocking surprise. I felt as if I was on a roller coaster, my emotions were twisting and spinning all over the place. I had an older sibling but never was home. I always was the big baby of the house.

In the reading “Performance Studies” by Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett. She talks about the idea of performance studies as a broad interdisciplinary, intercultural study. She looks at performance studies from a different scope, which allows so much more to become a performance, rather than just having art and theatre as a performance. She backs up her arguments with the three paradigms, which are, the broad spectrum approach, aesthetic communication approach and ethnoscenology. Barbara shows how performance
Cook English 101 16 October 2017 Oldest child vs. Youngest Child In a family with only two siblings, the oldest and youngest child are likely to be seen as equals due to the theoretical idea that parents love and treat their children equally. Although this is theoretically true, it is also a fallacy. Most likely they will grow up with the same parents or at least have one parent in common. The siblings will most likely grow up in the same household and environment and be exposed to the same situations
