According to Albert Bandura social learning
theory, he states that behavior is learnt from the
environment (McLeod, 2011)
Through observation, children learn both good
and bad behavior.
They pay attention to some of these behaviors
and encode them.
They will use the behavior that works best.

Adults can help the children to understand the
appropriate rules, to conform to the rules and to
encourage the positive behavior.

age appropriate form to children.
