Substage 5: Tertiary circular reactions is the term for piaget's sensorimotor stage where an infant develops schemes that include deliberate variations of actions that bring about desirable consequences

This stage of infant development occured when the infants are between the age of 12 months - 18 months.

During this stage, most infants have developed to follow visible movement of an object. So they started doing things such as: Reaching out to her mother's body for breastfeeding, throwing toys, etc.
