Construction is a fun hobby that has a positive effect on brain development. The experts talked about other benefits as well.

It is about developing hand motor skills, speech, decision making, ingenuity, and visual learning.

During the collection of parts, fingers begin to interact with the objects of the assembly. The brain analyzes shape, size, color. These actions activate brain activity.

During the assembly of the constructor, the child begins to come up with story lines. He speaks, then for some characters, then for others. Builds dialogues, thereby developing speech.

Construction has a positive effect on the development of critical thinking. During assembly, decisions are made, choices are made, information is analyzed. And already assembled figures allow you to analyze actions, experiment and not be afraid to make mistakes.

A constructing child is also always an inventor. Creates unique items. When there is an opportunity to take the initiative, the child creates: creates, destroys, and vice versa.

Design is the first step to accelerated visual learning. After all, the world is changing daily, and you need to keep track of these changes. And, if earlier only books were enough, now the information comes from different sources. Construction opens up the possibilities of the child's brain for this perception.

The design benefits are clear. Better to start creating shapes of animals, birds, or entire worlds from the constructor. After all, the skills that the child acquires with this will never be superfluous.

Recently OXO wrote that Lego constructor manufacturer showed Van Gogh's Starry Night in its own way.
