18: Cognitive Development in Middle Childhood

Cognitive skills continue to expand in middle and late childhood. Children in middle childhood have thought processes that become more logical and organized when dealing with concrete information. Children at this age understand concepts such as past, present, and future, which enables them to plan and work toward their goals. Additionally, they can process complex ideas, such as addition and subtraction, as well as cause-and-effect relationships.
