The same applies while shopping for toys for your kid. Most experts at special schools are of the view that toys are often a more effective way to teach them. By buying the right toys you don’t only have some fun time playing with your kid, but work at improving his skills as well. So, go shopping with care and before you buy a toy think what it has to offer to your kid.
Here are a few suggestions that can be beneficial.
The oldest of playthings we have known, but still a very effective mean of teaching your child to build perspective, visual interpretation and an active mental exercise. Most special schools use it as a tool to tell stories and improve cognitive skills of their students. Children usually love to play with it. It is a single player game that is self-occupying, so it is a particular favourite of children affected by ADS.
Rubrics Cube
This is a particularly interesting game favoured by all ages. Even adults find it quite addictive and it puts to use your sensory and cognitive skills and basic intelligence. Arranging the similar coloured blocks on each face of the cube is a challenge in itself, and once you get a hang of it, doing that in lesser and even lesser time should be your goal, says an expert at a special education school.
Remote Control Toys
These are excellent for hand and eye coordination. Your child enjoys playing with such toys and improves his motor skills at the same time.
Art Books
Colours are the best way to express. Painting and drawing can be a passion for some while for other’s it is a creative way to express. Most special children who prefer solitude are quite inclined towards art.
