Free-Flow have been playing with the ‘Bloxels’ recently and they have found them to be lots and lots of fun. Using these mini blocks has involved talking about colours, looking carefully at patterns in order to follow them closely and counting out the number of blocks required to recreate the selected pattern/design… all whilst drawing upon our fine motor skills to manipulate them!
This little one was super excited to have a go, he showed his colour recognition expertise and did well with counting too! The main challenge he faced initially was knowing exactly where to place the blocks on his grid and he initially needed lots of guidance regarding where to put them… However, after this initial support and scaffolding by a nearby supportive grownup he was then able to go on to complete this task and he was VERY proud when he had finished his tree!
