In the hustle and bustle of modern life, it’s easy to overlook the profound importance of play in your child’s development. But play is far more than just fun and games; it’s a fundamental building block for your child’s physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth. Did you ever think of that?
As per the LEGO® PLAY Report
7 in 10 kids (70%) love learning new things through PLAY whereas 39% of children feel that their parents’ jobs get in the way of family PLAY. And guess what, 85% of families said PLAY makes them happier.
Looking at these stats, I realized how important PLAY is for my kids’ well-being. Did you know that play is like a gym for your child’s brain?
Play isn’t just about toys; it’s about interaction. Playtime with peers and siblings shapes your child’s social skills, empathy, and cooperation.
