With the child the emphasis is not on the copying of a certain act, but on the attain- ment of a certain experience that comes through the copying or imitating. From the first begin- nings of control, the child is seeking to define his experience, to render it more definite. He is on the alert for stimuli that will enrich and enlarge his experience. Every stimulus is a suggestion to activity, at first perhaps merely to grasp some object, later to throw it; later the manipulations of the object ...by other people furnish stimuli to ^Calkins, Introduction to Psychology, p. 333.
Digitized by Google I20 THE PSYCHOLOGY OF even more complex acts on the child's part Here the so-called imitative stage begins. He sees an elder writing with a pencil. When he has a chance he picks it up himself and tries to mark oii paper. To an observer of the child, here is a case of imitation, but to the child it is an attempt to get a new experience with the pencil through the image furnished by the adult. In other words, to the child's consciousness the sig- nificance of the act is not in it as an imitation, but in that it helps define a new experience that is felt as desirable.
