Here are 6 reasons why as an pediatric occupational therapist I recommend this building block activity play set for your growing love ones:

  1. Balance and Coordination:

    • Recommendation: Balance Building Blocks often involve activities that require a child to balance on or move across unstable surfaces.
    • Skill Improvement: These activities help enhance a child's balance and coordination, essential for daily tasks.
  2. Fine and Gross Motor Skills:

    • Recommendation: Manipulating and stacking blocks require precise movements, promoting the development of fine motor skills.
    • Skill Improvement: Fine motor skills, such as grasping and releasing objects, are crucial for tasks like writing and tying shoelaces. Additionally, gross motor skills are refined as children engage in larger movements to interact with the blocks.
  3. Sensory Integration:

    • Recommendation: Balance activities often engage multiple senses, including touch and proprioception.
    • Skill Improvement: Children with sensory processing challenges can benefit from activities that promote sensory integration. Playing with Balance Building Blocks can help them become more aware of their bodies and surroundings.
  4. Cognitive Skills:

    • Recommendation: Problem-solving and spatial awareness are often involved in balancing and constructing with blocks.
    • Skill Improvement: Cognitive abilities, such as spatial reasoning and problem-solving, are honed as children figure out how to stack blocks without them toppling over. This can have positive effects on academic tasks and everyday challenges.
  5. Social Interaction:

    • Recommendation: Cooperative play with these blocks can foster social skills as children share, take turns, and collaborate on building structures.
    • Skill Improvement: Social interaction is a vital aspect of a child's development. Through play, they learn to communicate, cooperate, and negotiate with others.
  6. Emotional Regulation:

    • Recommendation: Engaging in balance-building activities can be both challenging and rewarding, helping children learn to manage frustration and build resilience.
    • Skill Improvement: Emotional regulation is a crucial life skill. By facing challenges during play, children can develop the ability to cope with stress and setbacks.
