Powered by imagination, building and construction toys make it clear there’s no right or wrong way to play; the options are limitless. Encourage creativity – choose from toy construction sets, magnetic blocks, fort building sets, play mats with blocks, hinged block sets, flexible building sticks, building block tape and more. Older children will expand conceptual thinking and be challenged by robot model kits, vehicle building kits and toys that incorporate construction as part of the play experience.
Hands-on play
Construction play offers hand-on fun with time away from a TV or similar screen, challenges motor skills and encourages problem solving plus when your child builds something there is a clear progression from start to finish, resulting in a sense of accomplishment and pride as well as in creativity. Encourage imagination and play without boundaries when you give your child construction tools and toys that facilitate thoughtful play. Promote STEM learning toys and STEAM learning toys begin with the basics – blocks, logs, magnetic pyramids, puzzle challenges and construction kits are a great foundation for multiple skills.
