Math
- The child learns about counting and number recognition as they count each Lego block and determine how many blocks are in the tower.
- The child learns about ordering and comparing numbers as they stack the blocks in order from smallest to largest or largest to smallest.
- The child learns about patterns and sequencing as they repeat a pattern of colors or sizes while building the tower.
For continued development, encourage the child to explore different ways of building towers using different colors, shapes, or sizes of Lego blocks. They can also practice counting and number recognition by building towers with specific numbers of blocks.
