Charlene has just begun to be able to form a mental representation of an object that is not visibly present. According to Piaget, that means that she has made the transition from the stage to the stage.

Sensorimotor to preoperational stage

Explanation:

During development, object permanence is one of the hallmark characteristics of the transition from the sensorimotor stage to the preoperational stage. Object permanence is the ability for a child to understand that even though an object may be hidden, it still exists and did not "disappear". Think about the peak-a-boo game. The reason it works on little babies is that they truly believe that you have disappeared whereas a child that is a bit older will realize that you are just hiding. Hope that helps :)
