Welcome to The Connector Play Kit for 4-year olds
Life is full of connections, and your 4-year-old is hard at work trying to figure them out. The more your child understands the “how” and “why” behind what happens in their day-to-day life, the easier it becomes for them to learn to adjust to changes and challenges.
The Connector Play Kit focuses on flexible thinking, an executive function skill that allows your child to investigate, solve problems, and adapt to change. Everything within this Kit is designed to provide fun ways for your child to practice this crucial skill.
The Wooden Modular Village & Pathways, for example, encourages your child to create scenes and stories differently each time they play, using the same materials in a new way. Tools like the Daily Helper Board show your child that different tasks require different amounts of help—there are things “I can do by myself” and things “We can do together.”
Flexible thinking is a skill that must be learned, practiced, and re-learned, and that’s what The Connector Play Kit is designed to help your 4-year-old do. Like all of our Play Kits, The Connector comes with a Play Guide with ways to play, helpful tips, and valuable insights into the skills your child is developing now.
