Cevap
The correct interventions are transitioning to a youth bed a month early, delaying toilet training, and providing a baby doll for role-playing.
Supporting a toddler through the arrival of a sibling requires minimizing concurrent stressors and fostering developmentally appropriate coping mechanisms. Transitioning the toddler to a youth bed well before the birth prevents feelings of displacement. Delaying toilet training is recommended because major transitions often cause stress and regression, making it an inappropriate time to introduce a new, demanding skill. Providing a baby doll encourages symbolic play, which aligns with Piaget's preoperational stage and allows the toddler to safely process the transition through imitation.
