Why We Love It
Building toys are fantastic for providing lessons in cause and effect, spatial reasoning, problem solving and decision making, as well as fine motor skills! Building can be an open-ended activity, or it can be guided by an instruction manual - both styles of play offer value, as open-ended building encourages creativity while guided building teaches kids how to follow directions, physically replicate what they see, and troubleshoot issues that arise.
