We see turn taking begin when playing peek-a-boo with babies. But it doesn't end there! Examples of turn taking include: So what does turn taking mean? Turn taking, or the act of taking turns in a situation, conversation, or even means sharing space and time with another individual. Turn taking can look like many things:
