27. Cognitive Skills • Block’s play helps children grow their vocabulary, it improves their mathematical knowledge while also teaching them about equilibrium, stability, and trigonometry. As they build various structures, they learn how to describe color combinations, dimensions, measurements, and locations.
28. Emotional Skills • One of the things we can see in our children of all ages when they play is the broad variety of emotions that it can elicit! • Children are cheerful, optimistic, energized, empowered, encouraged, and so on. • Playing with building blocks can elicit a wide range of emotions, including a rise in self-esteem, a sense of achievement, and competence. • The child's ability to handle new situations with resourcefulness will improve as his or her self-esteem grows, as will the ability to maintain interest and resolve anger, and, of course, it will teach self-control awareness.
29. Social Skills • Building blocks are an excellent way to expose children to cooperative play and to teach social skills. • They will communicate and explore new ideas together, exchange opinions while constructing, and participate in discussions about how to use the limited number of blocks. • Another advantage is that they will learn responsibility by cleaning up after themselves when they are finished with the bricks.
30. Language Skills • The children who played with blocks with their parents scored substantially higher on language development tests, according to a study of one- to two-year-old. • Make a design with your child's blocks to build a bridge with a tunnel or a ramp for their favorite car toy. • For example, by asking a child about their plans, we can encourage language development as they attempt to convey their thoughts to us.
