Description Description Snowflakes are not only for building a snowman. These chunky snowflakes can be used to create anything your child can imagine. The six sides of the snowflakes make it easy to lock from any angle—an educational building tool for young and old. Imaginative play and creativity stand out as learning benefits as your child can be a child and play and use their imagination and not be limited to what a book/curriculum wants them to do. And you will be amazed at how many skills they are still learning, all through play! Hand-eye and fine motor coordination are encouraged as your child picks up the pieces and places them on each other. Bilateral coordination is also improved as your child holds the formation stable with one hand and puts the next piece on top or next to it. Problem-solving and planning skills are encouraged as your child must plan what they want to build and how they want to build it. Language skills can be encouraged as your child explains in full sentences what they have designed and where they have placed the pieces (positional words). Playing with these pieces could also improve visual perceptual skills such as visual figure-ground, visual discrimination and visual-spatial relations when your child will have to find a specific colour among others, match colours and then place them on top/next to/ behind each other.
