Senses
The fundamental senses of seeing, tasting, hearing, smelling & feeling encourage a child's curiosity.
Fine Motor Skills
Fine motor skills are those smaller actions between the thumb and fingers or using the toes to wriggle and feel the objects.
Gross Motor Skills
Gross motor skills are larger movements involving the arm, leg, or feet muscles or the entire body.
Logic
Logical training enables babies to make connections between pieces of information.
Creativity
Colors, shapes, learning how to draw, getting familiar with music and rhythm, all goes to aid the growth of a child's creativity.
Linguistics
Linguistic Intelligence is the ability to use sound and language for expression and comprehension of others while a child is developing.
Emotion
A healthy child should be able to control and express his emotion, and interact effectively with others with mutual trust.
Communication Skills
Good communication skills lead a child to perform cooperative tasks and become productive team members.
Self-Esteem
Self-Esteem is an overall sense of achievement a child feels from the important people around him. Task basis activities could help children to build up a stronger self-esteem with a better judgment about their own worth.
*These are recommendations made under normal circumstances. Parents can determine which activities are most suitable depending on the progress of individual children.
Other Recommended Toys
Objective: Sense stimulation
Method: Popbo Blocs are soft plastic blocks of different sizes and shapes. All the blocks have different textures on them. Encourage children to touch and feel the bumpy textures on the pieces.
Objective: Grasping fine motor skills training
Method: Encourage children to grasp the plastic pieces with both their right and left hands.
Objective: Twisting
Method: Link any two of the pieces together. Encourage children to twist them in opposite directions. This trains both their gross and fine motor skills.
Objective: Disconnecting Popbo Blocs
Method: Link any two of the pieces together. Encourage children to disconnect them by pulling them sideways in opposite directions. This trains the gross motor skills, fine motor skills and horizontal movement in their hands and arms.
Objective: Rolling Popbo Blocs
Method: Encourage children to roll the green cylinder across the floor. This trains both their gross and fine motor skills. You may also create other pieces to roll by connecting two to three green cylinder pieces, or two purple semi-circles to form a big wheel.
Objective: Identifying facial features and body parts
Method: Teach children to identify Patrick and Bobby. Then use the two characters to teach children facial features and body parts.
Objective: Pointing out facial features and body parts
Method: Name a body part or facial feature of Patrick or Bobby. (For example, Patrick's nose, or Bobby's left foot). Encourage your child to point to that body part or facial feature.
Objective: Learning colors
Method: Teach children to identify colors using the colorful pieces.
Objective: Learning shapes
Method: Teach children to identify shapes using the different shaped pieces.
Objective: To differentiate between a protrusion and a cavity
Method: Parents can use the linking sections of the pieces to teach children to differentiate between a protrusion and a cavity.
Objective: Connecting Popbo Blocs
Method: Using concepts learned from activity 2.5, allow children to freely connect the pieces. This trains their gross and fine motor skills, as well as their judgement of space.
Objective: Building with Fun Park (Easy)

Objective: Categorizing pieces
Method: Place all the pieces on the floor and encourage your child to separate them into six groups: five groups based on color and shape, and one group with the two characters.
Objective: Learning 3D shapes
Method: Teach children to identify shapes using the different shaped pieces.
Objective: Bowling
Method: Use Patrick and Bobby as targets. Encourage your child to knock them down by rolling the green cylinder towards them. (You may also roll a wheel formed by two linked semi-circles). This trains children's gross motor skills and aiming skills. (Adjust the distance of the targets for different levels of difficulty.)
Objective: Building with Fun Park (Medium)
Method: Encourage children to recreate the following configurations. This helps develop their three dimensional and spatial concepts.
Objective: Building with Fun Park (Advanced)
