Playing is learning-Coin Game improves finger dexterity and eye-hand coordination

At birth, a baby's five senses are working, and before you know it, your young child is off to explore using all of those senses. As your baby grows, she becomes more curious—and that curiosity is never satisfied. She throws herself into the business of learning.

Through her observations and experiences, she learns about her world. This learning is called play.

From dawn to dusk, there are learning experiences through play that will help your baby develop physically and mentally. Look at al these coins, they are my collection from diferent countries. I put them in a very Giant Plastic Milk Bottle, Autumn love playing with the coins by putting them through the hole. I love watching her doing this.

This is the concept that i always practice in bringing up my baby. The learning journey can be so much fun with these enjoyable and entertaining activities as you go through your days with baby.
 

The Coin Game might be a very simple game. But, this simple game teaches valuable skills such as finger dexterity and eye-hand coordination. Show your little one how to put a coin into the plastic bottle. Encourage him to dump it out, then put it back. Invite your child to hold the bottle and to try to get the the coins out.  

If this is too hard for him or her, try holing her litle fingers and help her putting the coins into the bottle. Initially, she might never get it, so we must always help them so that they will not be demotivated. After that, she will love playing with this game and  keeps practising it. She will be very happy and proud to find that she is very capable in putting in the coins. Remember, every time she puts in a coin, give her a BIG CLAP!! This is a very good motivation and encouragement.

 Worrying that she might eat it or swallow the coins? Don't worry, babies are not that stupid if the parents do teach them. Just explain to them that these are coins, or money, and you need to put it inside. You cannot eat them...

This simple game teaches valuable skills such as finger dexterity and eye-hand coordination, also she will start to recognize things that cannot be put inside the mouth and she can only food, like biscuits, bread, rice, fruits, etc... Of course, make sure she you wash her hands after the game, or before she eats something.
Babies have so much to learn - and you can make it fun for you and your little one. Encourage your baby's development in creating baby fun by playing with your baby throughout your day!!
