Observational learning

Observational learning is when you learn by watching what others do. Let's say you watch your big brother ride a bike. You see him pedal, balance, and steer the bike. Next time you try to ride a bike, you already have an idea of what to do because you watched your brother do it. This is called observational learning. Just like when you learn how to play a game or a new skill by watching someone do it, you can also learn good and bad behaviors by observing others. It's important to remember that not everything you see others do is the right thing to do. So, always ask a grown-up if you are not sure if what you observed is the correct behavior.
