I believe the answer is: Symbolic Function/Representation

In psychology, symbolic function/representation is the ability to conveys a certain part of our subconscious mind in a form of objects. This is an extremely important part of child development since it allows them later on to translate the idea/planning into realisation, along with the ability to communicate the idea with other people.
