I agree!
Me too!
Your answer is correct!
Jason's action of pulling a chair to the counter in order to reach the cookies demonstrates problem solving. He encounters a problem (he can't reach the cookies) and he comes up with a solution (pulling a chair to the counter). Problem solving is a key element of cognitive development as it involves using mental processes to find solutions to challenging situations.
