Rachel and michael play near each other in the sandbox. rachel uses a scoop and a sifter. michael uses a pail and a shovel. they do not talk or try to influence each other's behavior. they are engaging in play.

The answer is parallel play.

Parallel play is the first step in learning how to interact with others. It’s a play stage in which children are near each other but not playing with each other.

It’s important for 2-3 year old range because it kids to learn peer regulation, observation skills, working independently and working and getting along with others.

Kids play alongside each other, they might be playing independently but they’re keeping an eye on each other, at this age they’re still egocentric that’s what they don’t need interaction.

i want to say death; parole, probation, and fines are still being used all the time.
