Intuitive thought: The term "intuitive thought" is described as one of the two different stages of the "preoperational thought" in the theory of cognitive development which was proposed by Jean Piaget. The preoperational stage is considered as the second stage and starts at the age of two years and lats through seven years of age. However, between the age of four to seven, a child generally develops reasoning about various things by asking different questions.
