10 - 14 years Blocks/Lego

Block building toys provide a low-tech option that offers hours of open-ended fun, both for children playing solitary or with others.

Playing with blocks sets such as LEGO or constructing structures from traditional wooden blocks teaches children problem solving, spatial and planning skills while also building fine motor skills and improving concentration.
