Trying to find a understandable meaning for ,the meaning of self awareness--I came up with the thinking skill that focuses on the a child's ability to accurately judge their own performance and behaviour and to respond appropriately to different social situatiions but I also found this meaning the capacity for introspection and the ability to recognize ones self as an individual separate from the environment and other individuals.. I am also having trouble finding the stages that lead to self awareness

Self-Awareness In the transition from infant to toddler, we suggested that three aspects of development are particularly important in helping us understand toddlers. To summarize, at about 18 months (range around 1 - 3 years), these three issues emerge to herald the arrival of the toddler: mobility, self-awareness, and language.
The Developmental of Self-Awareness
The neurobiological and psychological triggers for self-awareness have not yet been clarified. What we do know is that this occurs around 1 – 3 years. The child begins to know her own name and refer to herself by name. The child will begin to look in the mirror and realize she is looking at herself. She will also make clearer her own likes and dislikes, needs and wishes.
