Every Kids First Building Block

Do you still have memories of the very first time you build something yourself? If you do, it will highly likely be on a Lego set.

Psycho-motor skills is a very important area we need to develop when kids are in their toddler years. During this period, they are at their most active, imaginative and are probably also very sensitive to their environment. Hence with the correct tools toys, you will accelerate their psycho-motor ability. Lego is a very relevant set of toys to develop this. To divert their energy and attention of their surrounding to somewhere useful, having them build stuff using their own creativity is much better than trying to crush candy on a 10 inch screen (or worst still, on a freaking small phone).

The experience they can gather from building up stuff from scratch and playing with the finish product is definitely useful in terms of building up that motor skills and teaching them to appreciate what they can achieve by themselves.

Even if you do not agree with this post, you will agree that there must be a reason why Lego had been around since 1949. So start teaching your kids to build stuff for themselves instead of crushing some candies on screen.
