The correct answer is symbolic thought sub stage. 

Symbolic thought is a concept that is part of Piaget's theory of the stages of cognitive development. This sub stage of the pre-operational stage of cognitive development typically occurs from ages 2-7. Symbolic thought involves the use of symbols such as words, gestures, pictures or drawings to represent thoughts and knowledge. In this instance, Betty's scribbling of designs is her way of representing her family, house and cat through the use of symbols.
