Ashurst Park Playcentre

One of our almost 5 year olds made this incredible creation recently. This activity is great for early math and science (physics) as she picked which blocks to use at every step - judging size, shape, weight, and how they balance and interact with the other blocks. A huge amount of perseverance and problem solving was also observed throughout!
