  The author advocates block play to encourage a child's development in a variety of domains. This book presents photos that illustrate block play in real classrooms and stories from teachers who have successfully used block play. Blocks provide opportunities for sensory experiences, deep thinking, & problem solving. Block play improves hand-eye coordination and visual-spacial skills. Hansel supplies many instructional ideas for block play that correlate to topics such as transportation, travel, and world culture.
