“…Other studies, discussing intermodal sensorimotor processes with synchronisation and coordination of actions, have shown how babies' interactions promote advances in children's ability to imitate their social partners, and through imitation, their behavioural and communicative repertoires expand (Bussab et al 2007;Ferreira 2017). In the same way, objects, toys and even the peer's actions have been shown to be attractive to infants, allowing, for example, the establishment of baby-baby-object interactions, which are considered fundamental for the development of joint attention (Costa and Amorim 2015) and coordinated joint engagement (Moura et al 2020). Therefore, it is widely known that interactions between children provide rich opportunities for developing interpersonal skills such as support, cooperation, empathy, imitation, learning and a wide range of children's competencies (Rubin et al 2008).…”
