Games & Manipulatives Area

A variety of board games and table toys (often called manipulatives) are located in the game area. 

Children learn a variety of skills in the game area, such as cooperating, enjoying time with friends, taking turns and learning to follow game rules.  Manipulatives, such as stringing beads and Lincoln Logs, help children develop fine muscle control and coordination. They encourage creativity and industriousness, too.

Game area storage shelving helps children learn how to care for and organize play and learning materials.
