Why does she ... lie about things?
It is common for preschool children to lie. At this age, children do not yet always know the difference between reality and their rich fantasy life. Children may also lie to avoid being punished or because they are imitating adult behavior.

It is important to encourage your child to tell the truth and provide him with a good role model, by telling the truth yourself and not lying. Avoid punishing your child too severely when she does finally confess for any misdeeds, or she may avoid telling truth next time.
