Abstract: The aim of this chapter is reviewing literature on the development of theory of mind, analyzing in depth the role of language in the syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic domains to account for individual differences in theory of mind development and for the transition from implicit to explicit theory of mind. The role of language games focused on the use of psychological lexicon in the educational context is underlined, in light of the findings from two training studies carried out from the Laboratory of developmental and educational psychology (Lab-PSE) of the University of Milan Bicocca.
