Building blocks are a standard for many children in childhood; playing with building blocks can not only exercise children’s hand-eye coordination and fine grasping power, but also improve children’s imagination and creativity in the assembly and disassembly of various shapes. But building blocks are not just to play with. Children of different ages play with different building blocks.
About 6 months: They are already teething and adding complementary food. Children at this stage especially like to use their mouths to understand the world. They choose some soft building block toys with patterns and let the children “taste”. Lick to know the world; in addition, little babies still like to use their small hands to grasp toys. The patterns on each side of the soft building block toys are different, and when the baby grasps, they can experience different tactile sensations.
12 months or so: is a “king of destruction”. What I like to do the most is to take apart and push toys apart, and listen to the sound of banging and banging when the toys collide with each other. Give them some basic building blocks, and let the children slowly try to build some simple shapes.
About 18 months: I began to gradually realize the fun of building blocks. In their eyes, simple building blocks also have different fun. Give them a few large pieces of building blocks, and they can assemble and play for a long time.
Around 2 years old: The stacking ability of building blocks is stronger. Generally speaking, stacking 4-7 blocks is not a problem. At this time, they also have a sense of classification, placing blocks of different colors and shapes separately, and identifying those blocks with special shapes, such as houses, cars, wheels, small trees, etc. At this stage, children can play with more and more building blocks. They can buy beaded building blocks, bristle building blocks, snowflakes, magnetic building blocks, etc.
Around 3 years old: Already a “little adult” with his own ideas, and playing with building blocks is becoming more and more handy. If one day, you find that the child suddenly spells a plane, don’t panic, maybe tomorrow he will spell a castle. This time, some more difficult blocks, such as balance blocks and track maze blocks, can be added to the shopping cart.
Children around 4 years old: You can challenge the difficult slide blocks. This is a building block that sets the difficulty level according to age. Its construction process is more complicated and needs the guidance of parents to complete it together.
Older children: You can challenge more small particle building blocks. No matter what type of product it is, please pay attention when buying it, and buy it according to the child’s age and sensitive period.
