Orientation schema involves an interest in seeing the world from different perspectives, angles, heights, and positions. This usually involves putting their bodies in different positions and locations. Climbing up high and looking down on the world or sitting upside down in a chair, for example. It can also include orienting toys and other objects in odd and interesting ways or observing them from unusual angles. Turning a table on its side or using a mirror to watch what’s happening behind them, for example.
