Popis:	The directions of gazes of six children were observed at the ages of 24, 30 and 36 months during free-time play in a group nursing situation. The study found that there were two types of looking behaviour among children. One type of looking behaviour was characterized by a tendency not to focus and gazing on people, whereas the other type characterized by a preference to focus and gaze at both objects and people. Considering the fact that looking tendencies of young children are related to social behaviours, individual differences in looking behaviour among children that were observed in this study could influence their interactions with surrounding people.
