Children are like sponges absorbing everything in their environment. It is therefore essential that parents and carers provide a constant source of stimulation for them. The easiest way to do this is by giving them toys that are fun and educational. These can range from the simplest of toys such as wooden blocks, which help with co-ordination and color recognition, to the more advanced computer games. Baby ToysIt is best to encourage children from an early age. Babies will respond to anything tactile such as cloth books or books that incorporate different textures and toys that create sound. Mobiles will fascinate them.Toddler Educational ToysSpend time with toddlers playing with bricks and encourage them to role play with dolls and action figures. Sit them down and read simple, colorful books so that they start to accept the concept of writing as well as being entertained by story telling. Encourage your child to be creative. Pencils, pens and paint are great fun for kids and help with hand/eye co-ordination. Children love getting messy so let them play with clay and water, complimenting them on the shapes they create. It is very important to keep praising your child when they use their imagination. You may have no idea what they have painted or made, but it is very real to them.As your child gets older start to think about their schooling. Become familiar with nursery and school curriculums and plan accordingly. Teaching staff will help you will this. Discovery ToysGive your child a sense of the outside world. Encyclopaedias are ideal for helping the grasp geography and history. Look at the night sky and relate what you see to a map of the solar system. Use a globe to help them understand countries and our planet in relation to the rest of the universe. Show them the smaller world by looking at things such as insects under a microscope.
A child is like an empty canvas, it is your influence that will help create the final picture.
