Spelling is simple with Wooden See & Spell from Melissa & Doug! With Wooden See & Spell, kids learn to spell basic three and four letter words by placing brightly colored, solid-wood letters in the self-correcting cutouts on two-sided wooden boards. The word puzzles of Wooden See & Spell allow children to spell the name of the picture painted on the board, which supports word recognition while having fun! This See & Spell set includes 20 brilliant pictures and enough wooden letters to create more elaborate words when the ones provided have been mastered. This Wooden See & Spell set from Melissa & Doug comes with a sturdy wooden storage box that has three different compartments and measures 14.375”x10”x2.”

Intrapersonal
IntrapersonalBenefits
Play that is independent, fostering inner reflection and awareness of feelings. While play sometimes involves many children, independent play is an important aspect of healthy childhood development. When playing alone, children begin to recognize their own emotions, feelings, and thoughts, as well as how to control them. This benefit of play allows children to take charge of their activities and explore their environment at their own level and speed. Intrapersonal play improves children's self-motivation and self-esteem, as they engage their imaginations and take the initiative to create their own forms of fun and learning. Alone play gives children the opportunity to create their own environment, allowing for pretend play that utilizes their imaginations to the fullest. These children may appear shy, but when playing alone, their possibilities are endless!

Verbal
VerbalBenefits
Play based on reading, writing, but NOT arithmetic! Linguistic play is perfect for children who love language - written and oral. They learn best through books, crosswords, and listening to recordings. Play can include anything that focuses on written words, like word board games; or oral words, like story telling sessions or books on tape. Linguistic play will improve listening skills, allow for word creation and association, and benefit overall language skills. So, keep their lips loving to learn language!

Manipulative
Manipulative Play
Play that involves hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Children need the opportunity to work on finer skills that involve a little more control and direction. Manipulative play develops the sense of coordination, challenging their little fingers to follow the lines or use their tools properly. Some examples of manipulative play are: * Coloring, especially in a defined area * Paper crafts and art involving moving parts that need to be "put together" * Using a safe and simple tool kit to help with tasks around the house Cutting out a sunshine for the window or painting within the lines — all these activities are the perfect exercise for this type of play.
