Why children imitate adults

The little kid who tried to feed his sister was most likely imitating his mother.

According to Michigan State University, children can pick behaviours such as this through observational learning.

It says:

"Children learn and imitate behaviours by watching and listening to others. This is sometimes called “observational learning,” when children can learn things simply by observing others."
