Toys and Cognitive Development...

Melissa and Doug Blocks Toys Promote Cognitive Development

Author: Joe Kanooga
Toy blocks are far from old-fashioned. While they have been a traditional toy for many generations, blocks offer so many benefits that they continue to top wish lists for parents and children alike.

Babies and toddlers often enjoy soft blocks that are easily grasped and land more gently when they tumble. In addition, these stuffed blocks can be mouthed and gnawed without encountering corners and hard edges. However, solid wooden blocks are the most durable and offer years of entertainment. Even infants enjoy touching and holding wooden toys. From about 15 months, many toddlers like small cube-shaped blocks that can be stacked and sorted. Knocking down a tower can be the most fun - try rolling a soft ball for some basic bowling. At this age, toys still need to pass the inedibility test - so make sure you choose blocks that are too large to swallow, with smooth surfaces and non-toxic paint.

For slightly older children, a brand called Melissa and Doug offers a toddler-friendly set of cardboard blocks that stack up to three feet high. They combine different features like nesting, stacking, and have brightly decorated sides.

Blocks toys that feature alphabet letters, numbers, animals, and other shapes have a lot of potential. Starting in the preschool years, they can be used to introduce letter and shape recognition. Later, children enjoy making words as they start to grasp phonics and reading. And even when they are reading fluently, infinite building possibilities remain.

Blocks are available from Melissa and Doug and other brands in various sets depending on a child’s interests. There are blocks in vibrant primary colors, unpainted blocks in architectural sets, and even sets that come complete with a small wagon. Children can make complicated structures with a wide range of shapes and sizes - from turrets and towers to columns and cornices.  Young construction experts enjoy creating amazing buildings, car-enthusiasts can make tunnels, roads and garages, and princesses may build castles and towns. The possibilities are endless, and it is this invitation to imaginative play that makes wooden blocks a part of every classroom. Blocks toys can be the building material and the cargo, as well as the people and the animals.

When children play with wooden blocks, they enjoy touching and holding the solid shapes, they learn about balance and gravity, and they can share and cooperate. Block play develops hand-eye coordination, and promotes cognitive learning. Children create things from their imaginations, they learn basic numeracy and understanding of geometric shapes, and they experiment with patterns, weight, and comparisons. Language skills come into play as children explain what they have made and how it works.

For all these reasons, blocks toys are considered one of the best developmental toys. Researchers have found that early creative play with blocks:
• increases spatial skills in preschoolers,
• leads to higher math scores later in high school,
• develops problem-solving skills,
• improves social skills (when building cooperative construction projects), and
• supports language development.

Of course, it’s not just the blocks that provide all these benefits. It is also about how children play with blocks, and who they play with. Sit down and show your young child how to build. Suggest an interesting construction project. Demonstrate how to bring pretend characters into the game. And make it a fun and cooperative game, sometimes including friends. You’ll definitely enjoy it too!

Tempur-Pedic Mattress Pad

Sleeping is one of the "must have" items in our life. How well we can maximize the quality of our sleep translate into more time for all the other interesting things there are to do in our world today be it more time with your family, for work, hobbies, time to experience new things.


While doing my research for the "best" mattress (that has not concluded at this time), I came across the Tempur-Pedic Mattress Pad. What a great way to test out a much hyped bedding system for a relatively "small" investment?! This Swedish mattress material generically called memory foam came out of NASA's search to reduce g-forces experienced by the astronauts. There are now several other USA memory form mattress available on line such as  www.absolutecomfortonsale.com, www.selectfoam.com. Various brand foam mattresses are also available on Amazon.com, Overstock.com, Macys.com, Costco.com, walmart.com.




The mattress pad comes in 2 thickness: 1 inch and 3 inches. Brookstone.com only carries the 1-inch thick mattress pad (starts at USD299) and Tempurpedic has the 3-inch thickness on their website (starts at USD532).


I would recommend the 1 inch mattress pad for those that are currently already pretty happy with their mattress performance but are just looking for a little "up-grade". The 3-inch mattress pad I think would be more suitable for those that like to sleep on the floor occasionally or use it for guest sleeping instead of having to have space for a sleeper sofa or futton.
