Learners Play Pink Tower(Pink)

Pink Tower : Materials: 10 solid wooden cubes. The pink tower varies from 1x1x1 centimeters to 10x10x10x centimetersRecommended Age : 2-4 Years. Grasp each cube with one hand to get the muscular impression of the size. Build the tower from largest to smallest. The child will probably not be able to do this with the largest cube with one hand, it is fine to use both hands. However, the other cubes should be able to be grasped this way. (Again the connection- the hand is visually measuring the cubes for the mind to process). Exercise: The child builds the tower after the demonstration. Using the 3 period lesson introduce the concept of large and small, large, larger, largest, small, smaller, smallest. Also, if your child is ready, you can count the numbers 1 through 10 starting with the smallest cube (1) to the largest cube (10). The concrete difference between 1 and 10 is the first step in understanding addition. Later, when you teach your child to count backwards, use the tower again. Count backwards from 10 as the largest cube down to the smallest cube (1). This visual aid is invaluable to understanding subtraction. Advanced Exercise: When the child can build the tower easily have him or her build the tower with one corner exactly above the other all the way up, the two edges exactly even. The smallest cube can fit on each ledge on each level. This shows the size and difference between each of the cubes. Let your child use the smallest cube on each level to measure. Develops : Visual and small muscular perception of dimensions. This awareness of dimensions leads to observation of the child?s environment. Helps to make smoother and more coordinated movement. Math readiness by introducing concepts of smaller, larger, prepares for the decimal and number system. The cubes represent the concrete concept of the numbers of 1 through 10. Error control. If the tower is incorrectly built, it will topple over. Hint: If the tower is too difficult give the child every other cube until he or she has mastered the exercise. Then add all ten cubes. We also undertake OEM orders. We can manufacture toys / puzzles as per clien't design & specifications.
