Our STEM zone is set up with a large construction zone with various materials allowing the children to add and subtract materials to meet their design needs.
Construction play has a wide range of benefits to assist children in meeting their developmental milestones through play.
Some of these benefits include:
- Critical thinking skills
- Social and emotional skills
- Fine motor development such as: dexterity, manipulation, and strength
- Divergent thinking
- Spatial awareness
- Language skills
Through this experience the children worked in a small group discussing their thoughts on balance as they added a block to the construction.
Who can live in our purpose-built construction? Dinosaurs of course.
