  4. For preschool children--I would ask lots of why and how questions.. I would give clues to my questions such as I see your crying-- how are you feeling today? I know you really like Lightening McQueen -- why do you like cars? I see you ran real fast to the playground-- Can you tell me how you can get to the playground slowly?
