During the sensorimotor stage, infants acquire information about the world by exploring with their senses. They learn a great deal of information about objects through taste, touch, smell, and sound. Babies also learn by using motor actions, such as reaching, grasping, pushing, pulling, and pouring. In the process, they gain a better understanding of the effects of their own actions.
