Answer:

Pre-operational

Step-by-step explanation:

The pre-operational stage is the second phase in the cognitive development theory of Piaget.

This phase starts around 2 years of age as kids start talking and will last until about 7 years of age.

Children start engaging in symbolic play during this stage and learn to influence symbols or signs.
