Understanding Adolescence: Developmental Stages and Rites of Passage

Adolescence is a critical transitional stage between childhood and adulthood, marked by various physical, emotional, and social changes. In this exploration of adolescent development, we delve into Erikson's stages, particularly focusing on identity formation. We'll create a developmentally supportive toy suitable for a selected age group, reflecting on how it fosters growth during this stage. Additionally, we will examine rites of passage, both in the U.S. and globally, to understand how culture influences adolescent experiences. Personal reflections and challenges faced during this period will also be discussed.
