This guy had to be creative, since most of the blocks he wanted to use were already being used. We came up with plan B! |
It started simple and more was added! Not long after I took this picture, it came tumbling down. Notice the block shelf is empty. Every single block was used in some way this day. |
I demonstrated how to use these tubes for ramps. And they were hooked! |
You are right that kids demonstrate their creativity, problem solving skills and imagination when they are engage in interesting activities and games. This separate block area sounds great for that purpose. I also use such ideas that are easily available at http://www.kidsfront.com/math-activity/1.printable.html.
