The preoperational stage, which typically occurs between the ages of 2 and 7, is characterized by egocentrism, which means the child has difficulty taking other people's perspectives and assumes that everyone sees and experiences the world in the same way they do. In this stage, children are also unable to engage in logical operations and have a limited understanding of the principles of conservation.
