Activity 62 – Working Together, Not Apart!

Age Range – Preschool and Up

Areas Being Developed – Social Skills and creativity… all at one time!

Use any building set you have available like wooden blocks, Bristle Blocks, sponge letters or numbers, Legos, Tinker toys, Lincoln Logs, bottle caps (not too small to be swallowed), and more.

Then start to create. You begin and then have your child go next. Keep taking turns adding pieces one-by-one. No rush, no fuss, just the simple fun of sharing time together in a very constructive way.

Enrichment…

As you two work in partnership, you will feel your camaraderie grow. Interestingly enough, this is a wonderful way to teach your child to get along with others.
