We Supply Evidence-Based Games & Toys for Teaching Basic Concepts

When it comes to language development in early childhood, basic concept knowledge is crucial to understanding the terms that describe concepts like position, time, equality, quantity and comparisons.

By getting a head-start on basic concept learning, young children are well-positioned to hone their language skills from an early age. Fun Stuff carries a vast array of tried-and-tested games for teaching concepts and ideas, using materials like Flash Cards, Fun Decks, Charts, Board Games plus other fun and engaging resources.

Basic concept knowledge lays the foundations for children to learn how to:

  • Solve everyday problems in real-time
  • Develop pattern recognition, spatial awareness, hand-eye coordination and other key skills
  • Improve speech, social interaction, comprehension and similar skills
  • Many other core skills which help us progress into adolescence

 

 

Browse our range of basic concept activity worksheets and other fun resources

Whether these toys and games are to be played in a classroom or therapy setting, or played at home in a one-on-one environment, our carefully curated selection of basic concept games and activity worksheets encourages mental development in a fun and engaging way.

As an example, the Webber Basic Concepts Instructional Activity Program uses fun imagery and ice-cream cone rewards to teach students how to make concept pairs. Meanwhile, the Basic Concepts Chipper Chat is a fantastic resource for teaching students basic concepts both receptively and expressively in five categories: Qualitative, Quantitative, Social-Emotional, Spatial and Temporal.
