Match the Objects With the outline I love to watch how children learn with play ... Here is a simple activity you can set up for your toddler or preschooler. My son really enjoyed this activity!

This activity can  help your preschooler develop visual spatial awareness because of the many colors, shapes and themes. This simple activity can also teach children to develop fine motor skills important to daily life. They learn to grasp large and small pieces, pick them up and to place them where they belong by manipulation.  This activity is a great way to develop had /eye coordination Playing with puzzles requires your preschooler to manipulate the pieces in order to place them in the correct  slot. He sees a piece, picks it up and attempts to make it fit. If it doesn't, he puts that piece aside and starts the process over again until he has chosen the correct one.
