According to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, children in the concrete operational stage (ages 7-12 years) are able to understand the concept of conservation (the idea that changing the shape or arrangement of objects does not change their quantity). They are also able to understand and use logical reasoning to organize objects based on their attributes, such as size. Therefore, the fact that the nephew can organize his blocks based on their relative sizes suggests that he has reached the concrete operational stage.
