The present study investigated associations between maternal sensitivity and play conditions with different ways of engaging and participating and children's development of pretend play.

Sensitivity was assessed using the Coding Interactive Behavior (CIB) coding system, and children's play was coded using the 12 Step Play Scale.

The findings suggest that the use of a story stem may promote pretend play in interactive settings with the mother.",
