Malebog and Motor toys for your child's best development

There are certain factors that are responsible for the development of a child. While few factors have to be taken care of by the parents at home, rest are taken care of at schools. As the child first leaves the comfort and acquainted faces of its family members, and goes to a school, it needs certain MAlebog and educational toys to help them learn things in a fun way. These educational aids normally help in the physical and mental growth of the children. They are very important as tools to teach the young souls.

 

Children always understand things better when they get a physical feel of the objects or can perceive things with their sight. For this reason the kindergarten and Montessori schools use such educational aids like –malebogs, motor toys, 3D-story books etc to teach the kids. All these things are very colourful and normally have a glossy finish. The kids are made to learn about colours from toys of different colours. They are also given picture and colouring books to help them recognise each colour, with the fun element intact.

 

Coloured cubes of alphabet and numerical are also used to teach them the respective things! Shapes and sizes are also taught in the same way by blocks or stacking rings. This contributes in the development of cognitive thinking in the kids.

 

These toys also help in the physical growth of the children. There are certain toys which involve physical activity like arranging cubes in a particular order; playing with motor toys(motorisk legetøj)and understanding the concept of ‘left' and ‘right'. Push-and-pull and ride-on car toys are a great way to help them learn as their physical activity helps in their development.

 

Intellectual growth is also boosted by giving them simple puzzles to solve. These help in the hand and eye co-ordination of the children, and they become sharp and swift. This process of interaction and active participation of the children with the educational toys, slowly craft them into characters of personality.

 

While these educational aids for children are mainly used in playschools, some parents also feel they are a great investment for the sake of the bright future of their little ones. Choosing educational toys for your children is no child's play. Picking up the right kinds of toys will enhance the development of your child, which you will be surprised to see. Make learning fun for your kids.

School for active kids? Montessori or Reggio?

My kids is 2.5 yr old this summer. He is very active and has been reported having hitting problem at school. Right now, he's attending a montessori school. Teachers complain about him hitting other kids, pushing or throwing toys. However, when he hits others, he does it out of the blue and he is not in anger at all. He just thinks it is fun and he uses this to draw teachers attention. On the other hand, he doesn't like to work in his own area. He always run around in the class and doesn't like to ask to stop from what he is working on.

I'm not sure if it's because the school style doesn't fit him or what. We'll withdraw him this summer and have him attend a Reggio based school.

Does anyone have similar situation? And how do you deal with it? I need some advices whether I'm making a correct choice for him or not. HELP!

I have a few thoughts about it. I hope I can help.

2 1/2 is often a difficult age because of many factors. One of the biggest factors is language. Even though their language is improving at a HUGE rate right now, they still do not have all the skills to handle all their situations. This seems like a clear possibility in this situation. The way to deal with this is to give the child better language to use for whatever the situation is and do it immediately (which means the teacher has to do it if it is happening in the classroom). In the case of throwing a classroom material, I would walk over, remind the child that if he needs help, he can come and ask me for help. We could role play if needed. If he did indeed throw it to get a reaction, a reminder that we do not throw materials and asking if he would rather put it away or I should is all I would do in many situations.

With Montessori, when I have students acting out, I often go first to the practical life area and look to see what is available for the child. This is the area that helps the child best form his or her concentration. Is the child engaged in that area? Does he spend a lot of time there? If the answer is no to those questions, this is where I focus my attention as a teacher. 9 times out of 10, it works.

is he in a toddler classroom or in a 3-6 classroom? I wonder if the toddler class might be too "young" for him or he's not quite ready for 3-6. Has he been in the program all year or is he new? How often does he attend? Do they have a full 2.5 - 3 hour work cycle? All these questions came up for me when you described your situation.

Would Reggio be a good fit? Possibly. A well run Reggio school is fantastic, as is a well run Montessori school. I would look into it. Just realize this is less a methodology question and more a question of the teacher and how they are able to handle these situations. It seems they haven't told you a lot about what steps they are trying at this point. (Or, if they have, it wasn't clear in the post).

I'm not sure why EC Expert thinks an educational system based on movement and freedom would be bad for an active child. I'm guessing that day in her training course must have been the day she was absent?
