Tunnel: The tunnel gives us the opportunity to teach our children a very important thing called spatial awareness. Climb through and over, sit on top, stand behind, sit in front, etc. This block also offers enough space for your little one to move up and down. For our older children, we encourage climbing up one side, then turning the body 180 degrees and then going down feet first on the other side. The tunnel also gives self-confidence as they learn how to crawl under the tunnel with ease. A fun thing we also do is to let a ball roll underneath the tunnel by kicking or pushing it. This way they learn about what fits under the tunnel and what doesn’t. Turn the tunnel upside down and see how your little one enjoys fantasy play.
