A school should be a place for all children, not based on the idea that everyone is the same, but that everyone is different.

If you are looking for the best educational toys for toddlers , you should definitely give the magnetic alphabet a try.
These types of games, which we at Cucamenta make available to you in the form of books and also magnetic letters - which you can complete with a magnetic book to learn the time - are essential for the first stage of your baby's development, and will allow you to cultivate multiple skills, both physical and mental, at the same time. It is one of the best toys to stimulate speech and language .
What is the magnetic alphabet used for?
The magnetic alphabet serves to stimulate perceptual, motor and physical development.
- Gross and fine motor skills , exercising the muscles of the arms, hands and fingers to play with letters and manipulate the alphabet as they wish. Working on fine motor skills will help them later with tasks such as holding a fork, tying shoelaces or buttoning a coat, while gross motor skills are related to activities such as jumping, running or climbing.
- Ideal complement to learn to read and write : the alphabet is the gateway for children to acquire the essential skill of reading and writing. Wooden or magnetic letters are a fun, curious and fantastic way to dive into reading and writing, which powerfully attracts attention and also encourages free play and sensory experimentation .
- Stimulation of abstract and logical thinking. Letters and their association with sounds stimulate neural connections, according to Euroinnova. The magnetic alphabet is also ideal for promoting hand-eye coordination.
- Effective communication and vocabulary: The magnetic alphabet helps children express their ideas, improve their communication skills, create their own arguments and expand their vocabulary. The relationship between phonetics and spelling allows for language exploration. In addition, the articulation of letter sounds stimulates various areas of the cerebral cortex and stimulates the neural connections involved in language development.
- Language learning : If you give your child the magnetic alphabet in English, he or she will be able to learn the consonants and vowels in this language better, enriching his or her vocabulary, improving pronunciation and also gaining listening skills and speaking fluency.
- Improves visual and phonological discrimination in children with dyslexia , thanks to shapes and colors.
- Promotes calm, relaxation and sensory regulation: the appeal of the game allows children to concentrate and focus their attention, avoiding excessive use of screens. The tactile sensation of the magnets reduces anxiety.
- Creative expression : Children are free to create designs and shapes, as well as to express their own ideas, deepening their self-knowledge. The alphabet also serves to explore different games such as creative pairings, brainstorming or inventing their own stories.
- Problem solving and teamwork : children develop their social skills by playing together, which also fosters their autonomy, responsibility, confidence and problem solving.
