Expert Commentary
“Building toys are a great way to help children learn the basic concepts of engineering. Ensuring the child understands safety considerations and verbally communicates the projects they are working on can help increase learning and decrease any risks. Keep in mind that what is fun for your 2-year-old may not suffice once they are 4 or 5.”
