shtirl [24]

Answer:

The transition from preoperations to concrete operations is gradual, and typically occurs between the ages of 5 and 7.

Explanation:

According to Piaget's theory, the preoperational stage (in which children are considered too young to perform mental operations) starts around the age of 5 and extends up to about between the age of 6 and 7.

Throughout this period, children start developing cognitive skills by experiencing the world through actions, learning and identifying resources available to represent them with words, logical thinking and reasoning, developing intuitive reasoning and adapting themselves to the world and the environment.
