7 / Shapes and System Building

Block games seem too ordinary to be missed. In fact, this game teaches your child how to use both hands to stack blocks on top of each other. At the same time, it also helps children feel the achievement when finished building something, even if it is just a "building" of 3 blocks assembled.

Mother should base on the child's age and proficiency to choose the right material for toys: plastic, foam or wood. For small babies, mothers should buy them wooden blocks. Because if you do spill your "castle", the wooden blocks will be thrown less than plastic and foam. Multicolored plastic or foam blocks are easier to hold for older children, and they also bond more tightly.

These toys stimulate a child's imagination very well, even when they just push the toy car around a rug. Can you encourage your child with questions like where are the cars going, or who is driving them?
