Improving Kids’ Problem-Solving Skills

Improving Kids’ Problem Solving Skills

Problems can vary in size and nature – from solving a math equation to handling conflict and transforming plans into reality. Being able to tackle all these challenges with calmness and confidence is a valuable lifelong skill.

Toddlers are naturally inquisitive and eager to explore what’s around them. Even so, there are things we can do to encourage and inspire youngsters so they become skilled problem-solvers before they begin school.

Build problem-solving skills with LEGO® DUPLO® sets

LEGO® DUPLO® sets are specially designed for children aged 18 months and up. With bright colors and large, easy-to-handle building bricks, LEGO DUPLO toys are the perfect way to introduce toddlers and preschoolers to the developmental joys of creative construction.

Preschoolers who build and play with LEGO DUPLO toys experiment with color, size, shape, numbers, texture, weight, balance and symmetry as they create their own imaginative world. These endlessly versatile toys put creative problem-solving directly into the hands of children and develop their innate curiosity by enabling the play to go in any direction.

One of the many ranges of LEGO DUPLO toys that young children find immediately relatable is the series of Wild Animal playsets, which bring a whole world of animals in their natural habitats to your little explorer.
