Threes

This is the 'independent stage'.  Children will pretend they are  now capable, and that they are allowed to do every thing by themselves. They will try to do what ever they like. They will choose their clothing, they will decide what to ware and what NOT to ware, and they will try to do what they want to do and not what they are told, because, of course, they know what is best. 

Ratio for this age: 1-7
