The board game “Stork Bolek” helps to shape, first of all: concentration, visual perception, eye-hand coordination, speech and communication, logical thinking and large motor skills. Did you know that:

1. Concentration is the ability to focus on something specific. It can be a task being performed, a particular object or instructions given by a teacher. Concentration ensures children’s proper development and is essential at each stage of their education.
2. Visual perception allows children to get to know and understand the world around them. It is also essential for further education when learning to read, write and count. While playing with a board with different pictures, the child has to focus his eyes on them and make judgments about what he sees, such as colors, shapes, similarities and differences. This is an introduction to more advanced analysis, which, among other things, forms the basis for logical thinking.
3. Eye-hand coordination makes it possible to achieve precision of movements, and is essential for everyday activities – from eating, dressing, drawing or writing independently to physical activity. Eye-hand coordination additionally requires training of the child’s hands and fingers, i.e. fine motor skills.
4. Speech and effective communication are the basis of everyday life in the family and are indispensable for the development of social skills. They allow children to express their thoughts and feelings and to understand what others want to communicate.
5. Board games teach logical thinking: analyzing situations, predicting opponents’ moves, developing available solution options and making decisions.
6. Large motor skills are movements of the whole body, involving the arms, legs and trunk, among others, such as: walking, jumping, running. Large motor skills have a huge impact on coordination of movements, maintaining balance, and small motor skills, i.e. precise movements of the hands and fingers.
