An individual's identity is based upon his sense of self. "Self-hood first comes about as babies learn that they have a personal physical identity. They obtain this knowledge by exploring their own bodies, and then experiencing their bodies in interaction with objects and other people... Opportunities (for exploration and play) help the baby develop his skills and thereby increase his independence... expanding his understanding of himself."
