According to Piaget, there are 4 stages of cognitive development.  The ages that you listed above roughly fall into the category of "concrete operational".  The attributes of this stage are:

"Concrete operational stage (Elementary and early adolescence). In this stage (characterized by 7 types of conservation: number, length, liquid, mass, weight, area, volume), intelligence is demonstarted through logical and systematic manipulation of symbols related to concrete objects. Operational thinking develops (mental actions that are reversible). Egocentric thought diminishes."
