Today is a special day. We are enjoying a birthday. I got some puzzles and some Legos for the kids to put together. They were thrilled to get those. Then they found I got the Nerf guns to play with. They were happy because, they like to be kept busy. I believe they really do not want to be on video games all day. They do that out of sheer boredom.
They are so engrossed in those things that they did not want to get dressed today. I would rather have them in their pajamas and playing together using their minds and hands to work on little things like puzzles and Legos.
I am going to work with them continuously to help them with these little things so that they can tackle big things. The little things they learn when involved in active play is much more valuable than playing solo on a tablet.
