The paper looks at the cognitive development of children between 4 and 8 assessed by their performance of logical reasoning tasks. The author performs a critical analysis of Piaget's research that claims that children are egocentric and unable to reason up to the standards of adults. The issues of deductive inference, compatibility and incompatibility are discussed. The paper analyses examples of children's erroneous reasoning, and concludes that children do think logically, especially in natural settings, though their reasoning is not as advanced as that of adults.
