Though kids are more attracted by flashy toys such as robots, cars, plush toys, etc., the often ignored construction set toys have an important role to play in the overall development of the little ones. In addition to homes, you will find these toys in day cares and kindergartens as they help develop motor skills and thinking abilities. Construction set toys are a must for children along with the soft toys, robots, dolls, etc. as they help develop their intelligence and prod them to think of solutions to more complex practical problems.

According to child psychologists, parents and teachers should create a perfect environment for children to encourage them to learn problem-solving skills from a young age. Construction games are ideal for children to develop these problem-solving skills in addition to motor skills. They also help in the development of their creative and cognitive abilities.

Here is how construction set toys can help young children:

  • The toys can improve a child’s hand-eye coordination. In fact, motor systems develop more rapidly if they play with such toys.
  • Children are likely to show increased creativity and develop the ability to think independently and also laterally.
  • The children in kindergartens or day cares can learn about team involvement. They will start enjoying the pleasure of working as a team from a very tender age as they work together to build complex structures with the blocks.
  • Your baby will also learn social skills and improve his/her language skills by playing with such creative construction set games with their friends or playmates.
  • Numerical abilities such as counting are also likely to increase, albeit with some help and guidance from a grown-up. Toddlers can start learning to count besides learning the alphabet as the numbers and letters are often engraved on blocks of such construction set games.
  • These games are likely to hold the child’s attention span for a longer time and help him develop concentration skills. Also, the child is less likely to be moved by smart-phones or tablets or the TV if they are concentrating on construction set games.
