The preoperational stage, according to Piaget, is the stage between the ages of 2-7 where a child learns to use language to represent objects and ideas in the world around them, but they still lack logical reasoning abilities. The sensorimotor stage is the stage from birth to 2 years where infants learn to coordinate their sensory experiences with their motor actions. The concrete operational stage is from 7-11 years old and is characterized by more logical thought processes. The formal operational stage is from 11 years old and up and is characterized by abstract reasoning.
