          What Pretend Play Tells Us About Social Cognition

          By the age of two, most children are able to embark on pretend play and adopt a perspective that does not fit reality.

Findings suggest the ability to adopt perspectives, an important aspect of developing social cognition and the attribution of mental state, is already present in young children.
