Here are just some of the benefits the Rainbow Discovery Blocks offers your child:
- Understand Size, Sequencing and Cause & Effect
- Explore Colours and Shapes
- Develop Hand-eye Coordination and Spatial Awareness
- Creativity and Imagination
Understand Size, Sequencing and Cause & Effect
Your child can stack the blocks inside each other, in doing this developing an understanding of size - that the smaller square stacks inside the larger, differentiating between the largest and smallest. Organising the shapes according to colour, or asking the child to stack multiple colours in a specific order, helps them to understand sequencing.
The blocks can also be stacked upward, children enjoy building and crashing down towers - this develops an understanding of cause and effect.
Explore Colours and Shapes
Encourage early learners to explore colours by viewing different objects and scenes through the lenses. Children love seeing the different objects awash with the different colours, imagining that they now live on ‘Planet Red’ when looking through the red lens or that they are under the Sea when looking through the blue lens.
Engage young scientists using the exploration lenses, use the magnifying lens to observe the tiny details in objects. Use the lenses with the square, hexagon and ripple effect to see how they distort and manipulate light to create different colours and shapes when viewing objects inside and outside. Kids are in wonder as they see shapes and colours change.
Develop Hand-eye Coordination and Spatial Awareness
Learning tools such as our Rainbow Discovery Blocks require the child to reach for, grasp, lift, stack the blocks. This develops hand-eye coordination - that is the connection between what the child sees and what they touch. This is vital for many skills including, drawing, throwing, catching and the use of cutlery.
Growing Concentration, Creativity and Imagination
The Rainbow Discovery Blocks can be used in a myriad of ways. Children exercise their imagination and creativity when playing. The attention and time required for creating means kids can play for hours and develop the critical skills of concentration and focus without knowing it.
