Toy blocks and other construction toys might not be as flashy as battery-powered robots or video games.
But as developmental psychologist Rachel Keen notes， parents and teachers "need to design environments that encourage and enhance problem solving from a young age"聽
Construction toys seem ideally suited to do that， and they may also help children develop
  • motor skills and hand-eye coordination，
  • spatial skills，
  • a capacity for creative， divergent thinking，
  • social skills， and
  • language skills.
Moreover， kids can integrate their own constructions into pretend play scenarios. There is also evidence that complex block-play is linked with advanced math skills in later life.
If your children are glued to tablets， video games or smart-phones， give them an opportunity to gain solar power knowledge， learn about mechanical transmissions， and get them outside to play. Amazingly， you may find yourself engaged in discussion with your child thanks to their newly acquired know-how!
