Playing games as a child is not only fun but also a way to get to learn about the world. Through play, a child develops and acquires intellectual, physical, and emotional skills. Puzzles and bricks games have a great positive effect on children’s memory, as any parent will tell you. Putting the pieces of the puzzle together first helps with memorization. Puzzles allow a child to concentrate on one task without interruption. Puzzles and variations of a wooden brick game are fantastic tools for teaching children many important skills. Of course, it is crucial to note the impact on fine motor skills, coordinating movements, and developing logical thinking.
Why wooden puzzles and toys?
At Bimi Boo Toys, we offer toys of the highest quality materials finished with safe paints as children’s protection is our first priority. Our educational wooden toys and puzzles are great tools for the development of spatial and strategic thinking and children’s determination. We offer non-standard approaches and solutions because wooden toys are creative and designed specially to develop essential skills. Sorting wooden puzzles for small kids has additional memory benefits as they focus on the ability to discriminate and generalize, combine elements, and memorize better. Non-standard educational jigsaw puzzles for toddlers help to develop attention and observation skills. Children learn to make quality descriptions of the whole picture and to find the most important, interesting, and special elements.
Skills and abilities developed by playing with wooden puzzles
Improving memory
Puzzles can help improve a child’s short-term memory. A child may remember a previous piece of the desired color and shape as he or she tries different pieces and then finds that piece and puts it in place. Puzzles are a way to keep the mind active and engaged. To improve their memory skills, children should try to complete the same puzzle a number of times. Each time, it becomes easier to remember where to put the pieces.
Problem-solving skills
Wooden puzzles teach children how to solve a problem. When there are many pieces, children need to develop a strategy to figure out how to make all the pieces fit together.
Learning to aim and be patient
Kids need to use their critical thinking skills to achieve the puzzle goal: putting pieces together to complete a picture. So, puzzles and bricks can be one of the first times children are presented with a task that requires them to set a goal.
Focusing and organization skills
Wooden puzzles and sorters teach children the basics of sorting, which also improves their organizational skills. Young children learn to sort puzzle pieces by shape and color. This skill will help improve a child’s spatial awareness and shape recognition.
