Analysis

The above toy is ideal for children within the age of three to five years. At this growth stage, the

focus is to ensure that a child goes through the right eye to hand coordination process. With the

eye to hand coordination, parents and stakeholders concentrate on ensuring that the information

that is received through the eyes can be transferred to an action of the hands. Considerably,

vision does not involve the act of seeing only (Bushnell 15). It is important for the infants to

understand that the images that they are seeing have some relevance. For instance, in the above

image, the child is in a position to arrange the blocks according to a particular formation. What

this means is that the child understands that the blocks are supposed to be arranged in a particular

format. In this case, the eyes look at the blocks and the hands execute what the eyes decipher

about the toy.

Although the toy is vital in the process of connecting the abstract and the concrete, it

important for the teachers to look at safety issues when infants are using the toy. When you look

at the toy, it is evident that the infants can place the blocks in the mouth. As a matter of health, it

is important to note that some bacteria might be attached on these blocks and as such when the

infants place them in the mouth them in the mouth it could result in infections.

To improve the significance of this toy to the infants, the creators should add some

sounds. With sounds, the child will be elated when arranging the blocks and this is important in

making the infant be interested in the activity (McPake et al., 427).
