The game stage Mead describes the child having to take the role of everyone else involved. My son does not play sports like baseball or soccer but I think his participation in karate could be an example of game stage development. This is a picture of graduation. He has to be a participant at his belt level performing the correct form at the correct time with the rest of his class. He has to be a leader to the younger belts as he performs his karate forms. He has to respect his master at all times. During this stage as well as this particular karate graduation he had to learn to be able to participate in a organized group.
