This may just look like a normal tower, but there’s actually lots of learning happening here!
One of the things I love about tutoring little ones is that learning doesn’t always look like sitting at a table with a worksheet. Play is learning too and sometimes it’s the best way to keep a child engaged while working on the skills they need!
This is something I’ve been doing with one of my 5-year-old learners and the blocks are a good way of working on his fine motor skills. Picking them up, turning them, connecting them and carefully putting them all together help build up hand muscles and co-ordination.
Whilst we’re building, we can also practise counting, colours, following instructions, problem solving and language without it feeling like a lesson.
And then, of course, there’s the concentration needed to build a tower this tall and I think he did a pretty good job with this one!
