(Video) Train You Children To Play ‘Peek-A-Boo’, Gives Many Advantages To Them!

Peek-A-Boo is actually a form of play played with an infant. To play, one player hides their face, pops back into the view of the other, and says “Peekaboo!”. There are many variations. For example, where trees are involved, “Hiding behind that tree!” is sometimes added. Another would involves saying “Where’s the baby?” while the face is covered.

Peekaboo is really thought by developmental psychologists to demonstrate an infant’s inability to understand object permanence. Object permanence is an important stage of cognitive development for infants. In early sensorimotor stages, the infant is completely unable to comprehend object permanence. These are some advantages for children.
