At age of 3, he develop categorical self which is a solid way to seeing themselves. Let's take an example :- at this age children distinguish them on their physical appearance like both or girl, short other tall etc.
As the memories of children's develop they start obtaining the remembered self. This remembered self create memories which help them to retain things in their mind.

Usually, young children are optimistic and positive, they have desire to learn new and different things it is because they have achievement related attribution. Such attribution comes from school, friends and family members. Self concept is an idea how children perceive or evaluates themselves.
