Have you ever tried these Picssso Tiles?
We got them for Jonah last year for his birthday but he didn’t show much interest in them besides scattering then around the house.
But yesterday, I took him to a childcare at our church for a couple hours (yes, I know… another HUGE victory) and they had these there to play with. He seemed more interested in them.
So we came home and got them out again.
Jonah was just building to his hearts content….
But today, when Jonah was building, Mama called me over.
Her: “Look at this, hon!”
Me: “what am I looking at?”
Her: “look at what he’s building!”
Me: “…and?”
Her: “look at the picture on the box!”
Me: “oh wow!”
There is so much more there going on than just “sensory input.”
Imitation, self-direction, creativity, problem-solving….
We have come so far since he used to just scatter them around the house.
