Inhibitory Control

One aspect of self-control is inhibitory control, or the ability to stop oneself and to wait. Toddlers love stop and go games because they allow the child to practice control over his/her physical body and to revel in his/her master of this control. Inhibitor control is important in social interactions where taking turns is involved, and as such is an important skill for success in school.
