Printing each JSON input path from a complex JSON object

Suppose I have the following JSON object:

{"root":{"Child":0, "Child1":0, "Child2":[0, 0, 0, 0]}}

This JSON object may be complex.

I'm interested in printing each input path from my complex JSON object in JQUERY. My output should look like:

{"root":{"Child":0}}
{"root":{"Child1":0}}
{"root":{"Child2[0]":0}}
{"root":{"Child2[1]":0}}
{"root":{"Child2[2]":0}}
{"root":{"Child2[3]":0}}

How would you print a complex JSON object in this way without specifying the name of JSON variables in Jquery?

Here is my dirty jQuery (since your question is tagged) version:

Demo1@Fiddle

Demo2@Fiddle

var json = $.parseJSON('{"root":{"Child":0, "Child1":0, "Child2":[0, 0, 0, 0]}}'), arr = [], arrVal;

$.each(json, function(key, val) {
    if (typeof val === "object") {
        $.each(val, function(key1, val1) {
            if (typeof val1 === "object") {
                $.each(val1, function(key2, val2) {
                    arrVal = ['{"', key , '":{"', key1, '[', key2, ']":', val2, '}}'].join("");
                    arr.push(arrVal);
                });
            } else {
                arrVal = ['{"', key, '":{"', key1, '":', val1, '}}'].join("");
                arr.push(arrVal);
            }
        });
    }
});

Tried a recursive approach to print all properties. 

     var json={"root":{"Child":0, "Child1":0, "Child2":[0, 0, 0, 0]}}

     function prettyPrint(json,path,depth)
     {
      var keys=Object.keys(json);    
      if(keys.length==0)
     {   
       var outp=path+":"+json;
       for(var i=0;i<depth;i++)
       {
        outp+="}";  
      }
       console.log(outp);
     }      
     else
     {    
      depth++;  
      for(var i=0;i<keys.length;i++)
      {  
        prettyPrint(json[keys[i]],path+":{"+keys[i],depth);    
     }
    }
  }  

  prettyPrint(json,"",0);

Output is 

    {root:{Child:0}}
    {root:{Child1:0}}
    {root:{Child2:{0:0}}}
    {root:{Child2:{1:0}}}
    {root:{Child2:{2:0}}}
    {root:{Child2:{3:0}}}

Hope you are looking for it, but this looks weird though :P

var obj = {"root":{"Child":0, "Child1":0, "Child2":[0, 0, 0, 0]}};
for (var item in obj){
  if(typeof obj[item] == 'object'){
    for (key in obj[item]) {
      if (obj[item].hasOwnProperty(key)) {       
        if(typeof obj[item][key] == 'object'){
          for(var keyValue in obj[item][key]){
            //console.log(obj[item][key][keyValue])
            console.log('{'+item+':'+'{'+key+':'+obj[item][key][keyValue]+'}}') ;  
          }
        }
        else{
          console.log('{'+item+':'+'{'+key+':'+obj[item][key]+'}}') ;  
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
