Why offer an educational game to a child?
Many studies prove it, children learn by playing. This promotes their cognitive development. It has also been shown that ” preschoolers participating in complex block games had long-term benefits in their math skills » or even that in « frequently playing with literacy materials (they) were more likely to become spontaneous readers “.
This is why the Kindergarten Curricula give pride of place to learning through play, right from their second paragraph: 2.1Learn by playing And 2.2 Learning by reflecting and solving concrete problems.
So what could be better for your toddler than the logic puzzle games !
How to choose a logic game for children?
As with any game or toy, the educational game must meet certain selection criteria, which we list here.
1 | Child’s age
The logic and educational games in our selection are intended for children from 1 to… 101 years old! Indeed, some board games are played as a family. So check carefully for which age group the game was designed, and this for two things:
The educational aspect: if you offer a game that is too complicated to a child, he will not take any pleasure in it, because he will fail too quickly and he will turn away from it. Conversely, a game that is too easy will have little interest for a little one who is thirsty to learn, by encountering a few obstacles and being able to overcome them.
The safety aspect: do not offer a baby under the age of 3 a game that is prohibited for this age group. He could indeed choke on putting small game pieces in his mouth.
2 | The type of logic game
Among our very varied selection, find games leading to the learning of mathematics, reading, sorting, cause and effect relationships, mechanics, etc. Many are complementary. Don’t stop your choice at just one game!
3 | The availability of parents
Unlike imitation games, such as dolls, crafts or dinette, the logic game requires the presence of an adult, an older brother or sister, who often already knows how to read, with the child:
at the start to explain the rules or name the different elements;
throughout the game in the case of games that are played by several people;
at the end to validate or not the result obtained by the child.
If you offer a logic game to your toddler, try as much as possible to be available for him!
4 | Design
Here, it’s all about your tastes. Choose the images, colors or materials you like.
5 | The materials
In this selection of logic games, we have chosen eco-responsibility and ethics. The games are made of FSC® wood, that is to say from eco-managed forests, cardboard, organic fabric or any other recyclable material and manufactured with respect for the environment and people.
