- Understanding of basic physics concepts such as gravity and force as they move the figurines around
- Developing an understanding of cause and effect as they make decisions about where to place the figurines and how to move them
- Learning about different types of terrain and how it affects movement and strategy
- Developing problem-solving skills as they come up with strategies to defeat the opposing army
- Learning about different types of weapons and their uses
Encourage continued development by introducing the child to books or documentaries about military history and strategy. You can also encourage them to create their own army figurines using clay or other materials, which can help develop their creativity and fine motor skills.
