So as, for example, the child in the beginning merely lets the ball roll from the box on the table and fall back into the box; then next he lets the ball run back from the cup into the box; from the box again into the cup, and lets it roll round in the cup (both of these acts are frequently repeated actual facts of the first child life and child play), so will the child also very soon--as soon as he has perceived that he can hollow his little hands like a cup--let the little ball run from one hand into the other, (as the child, and especially the little girl, later employs itself for a long time merely by pouring water or sand from one vessel into another alternately).
