Tic Tac Toe and Puzzle Game
The game of tic-tac-toe is a game of predictability. The moves that are believed to be important are highly predictable. This also makes it a game of opposites in a way, because this goes against the definition of an “important move”. But this predictability is what helps foster strategic thinking in children. They can learn through observation what their opponents’ next move is and think ways on how to block them, a simple but effective version of chess. In order to figure out what else they can do in the game to win, the children are encouraged to think more logically. They, therefore, naturally develop their logico-mathematical thinking, which can help them in subjects such as math and engineering in the future.
Swing Set
Swinging help increases spatial awareness amongst children. Swinging helps develop gross motor skills—pumping legs, running, jumping. Swinging helps develop fine motor skills—grip strength, hand, arm and finger coordination. Swinging develops a child’s core muscles and helps with the development of balance.
TetherBall Equipment
Tetherball is a fun and engaging game that helps children build essential skills. By hitting the ball in opposite directions, players improve their hand-eye coordination while learning to follow the game’s rules. The physical activity involved also promotes strength development, and as children interact and compete, they naturally enhance their social skills, making tetherball a well-rounded activity for growth and enjoyment.
