Children learns from baby and as they grow older, they learn the cause and effect in everything that they do. Zoos and parks are perfect kids’ learning tools because they teach about animals and nature. Learning tools do not need to be an item. Places and situations make the best lessons. Let them help in the kitchen to learn math skills. Even tidying a room teaches life skills.
The easiest way to begin understanding kids’ learning tools is by the educational toys they play with. Kids’ learning tools are simple. Look for child driven toys that can be played with in multiple ways. Like I have listed before shape sorters, building blocks, open ended games (the rules can be adjusted to fit your child’s age and level), puppets, tent, balls, musical instruments, stuffed animals, trains, cars or dolls, puzzles are toys that they needed in their toolbox.
Another example of kids’ learning tools are children's books. Books open a whole new world to children and teach them about both familiar and unfamiliar situations, people, animals and events. Make sure you to have age appropriate books. Don't expect your toddlers to treat books gently. Their curiosity may incline them to take a great book with flaps and rip them off to see what will happen. As the children begins to read, encourage this challenge with easy readers and phonics books but do not stop reading to the child. Hearing your voice and spending time together is another tool that the child will take with him forever.
Children need to express themselves. Art provides kids’ learning tools of creativity. Children will learn different ways to express ideas, appreciate the beauty of the world around them and have a fun outlet of painting, gluing, and drawing. His hand-eye coordination will also improve as he works on projects.
