Abstract- Jean Piaget was a Swiss psychologist who systematically highlighted all aspects of human development which we also know as Piaget theory and Jean Piaget’s cognitive development. In his theory, he explained how a child’s cognitive development takes place and what are the levels of his development. By cognitive, he means intellectual development. According to Jean Piaget, a child’s intellectual development takes place in a systematic manner, like a child cries when he is hungry, that is, he expresses his emotional aspects through various actions, he expresses his emotional aspects through his senses (eyes, ears, nails, tongue, hands etc.), after that he imitates his parents, after that he comes into society and emphasizes on collective activities, which increases his cognitive development.
Keywords: Intellectual development, cognitive imbalance, nervous system, preoperational stage, introspective period.
