Abstract: As children explore the world in which they live, they learn to recognize, name, and describe objects that they see. Objects are recognized on the basis of certain physical properties (color, size, shape, or certain patterns of behavior). A child begins at an early age to classify objects into specific categories, based on certain unique characteristics or properties. As new objects are discovered, they are classified in relation to objects already discovered.
