Basic Concepts
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
