According to Erikson's theory of social development, the ages of three to six fall under the third stage which is "Initiative versus Guilt". During this stage, children begin to assert control and power over their environment and develop a sense of purpose. However, if they experience too much guilt or are overly criticized, they may feel anxious and experience a sense of inadequacy.
