Years ago, children did not have electronic toys and video
games to play with. All they had were things like dolls and dollhouses, toy
cars and jump ropes. No matter what toys
they played with, they had to use their imagination to a certain extent. For

* Play-Doh - It has been around for decades, but Play-Doh
has withstood the test of time. It can
get messy, but letting your kids play with it can bring forth imagination like
few other things can. Your child will
make all sorts of things with it and you can help by providing tools that make
interesting shapes and textures. For more information click here. building

* Dress-Up Clothes - Playing dress-up is a great activity
for kids. Providing a variety of costume
pieces for boys and girls lets them design their own outfit. That can lead to pretending to be any number
of people or things, and imagination is a prerequisite for pretending. For more

* Blocks - Blocks come in many shapes and sizes these
days. Any of them are good for
encouraging imagination. Old-fashioned
wooden blocks have the added benefit of teaching kids how balancing works. Soft blocks are safe for smaller
children. Legos interlock to allow
children to move their creations from place to place. All of these allow children to build virtually
anything they want with a little creativity. For more information click here. shape

* Dolls and Action Figures - Dolls and action figures that
do not talk make it necessary for a child to put words into their mouths. That requires plenty of imagination. Your child can make up stories and scenarios
featuring them and she might ask you or a sibling or friend to play the part of
another doll or figure. If it is
possible to change their clothing or use props with them, that's even better.

Imagination is not only a fun way to learn, it is also
effective. While children may learn such
things as letters, numbers and even phonics from electronic toys, they are no
substitute for learning by doing.
Imaginative play often leads children to figure things out for
themselves and things learned that way are not soon forgotten. For more

Imaginative play also often results in a child asking
questions that she might not have thought of otherwise. This gives the parent or caregiver a unique
opportunity to teach her about things that she is specifically interested in. And it's no secret that children who are
interested in learning learn better. For more information click here. stem
