Benefits of Playing Block
Anyone knows that the ‘business’ of grabbing, picking up, and piling is closely related to playing blocks.
Yes, this game can hone gross and fine motor skills. However, recent research states, this classic toy can also help children to learn language and spatial concepts such as ‘above’, ‘below’, and ‘through’ something.
So, don’t immediately put the stacking blocks and let the children play alone. Instead, build something with him, such as a tunnel for his cars to break through or build a cage to hold animals in. Explain to children about what Mama is doing,
“Now, Ade’s car is walking ‘under’ the bridge” or “His horse is hopping ‘over’ the fence.” When this is done, build the tallest tower Mama can build and show her how to ‘knock it down’. “
