Unusual use of blocks - that is, not only for stacking

A game that inextricably connects generations - ours, our mothers', and now our children's - playing store. Assuming social roles and acting out scenes from everyday life is an excellent opportunity to transmit appropriate behavioral patterns of our culture. However, this does not have to be done at all by restraining the child's imagination - on the contrary.

Colorful blocks of various shapes can temporarily become any article from the store. A green block can be a cucumber, a yellow one a lemon, and purple or blue ones berries or plums. Let's use different sets of building blocks, to make the fun even more interesting! However, we should remember to sensitize the child that toys are not suitable for real food.

Entertainment suitable for toddlers of almost any age - let's turn building blocks for children for musical instruments! Music has been with us since time immemorial and we have almost instilled a love for it from primordial times. Surely our little one likes to play music too - so let's create a set of instruments out of blocks. Depending on the size, shape and material, the blocks make different sounds. By positioning them properly - and rhythmically, gently hitting them, such as with a plastic spoon, we can create a real symphony of sounds. Such playing of simple melodies will sensitize the toddler to music and rhythm. Will teach your child to extract rhythm from even simple objects. It's also an excellent exercise in coordination and combining stimuli - visual, sensory and auditory.

Large blocks are successfully suitable for the original set of dishes. Cups, bowls, cups! Perhaps a rainy afternoon is a good time for a delicious pretend tea, sipped seemingly from colorful cloche cups? Invite your favorite dolls and teddy bears to play, set the table for afternoon tea and you're done! It's a great opportunity to learn good manners while having a fun time with interesting chitchat in excellent company!
