You will likely want to spend most of your time detailing the most important criticisms of the egocentrism theory in a separate paragraphs, and giving your own evaluation for each criticism in the paragraph.
One of the main criticisms of Piaget's "tasks" is that younger children would fail the tasks Piaget used because they were unnecessarily complicated (i.e. you get false negative errors).
