- They may have engaged in imaginative play, creating stories about the cars and their adventures in the garage.
For continued development, encourage the child to write simple stories or draw pictures to go along with their magnetic garage. They can create characters for the cars and write about their adventures. This will help foster their creativity and storytelling skills.
