Automoblox® designer, Patrick Calello worked closely with leading child development psychologists to create not just a cool toy but one that delivers a play experience with sound educational benefits With Automoblox®, a child learns goal directed activity through which knowledge is acquired by coordinating the following:
- Visio-Spatial Processing - an important link in the processing of information and the ability to develop visual motor integration skills. By playing with the Automoblox® a child can discover how they perceive shapes and part-to-whole relationships by putting the puzzle pieces together. They will begin to use skills such as rotation, integration and see angles to accurately differentiate between shapes and how they can build and design their own cars.
- Creative Problem Solving Skills develop as your child is able to formulate new ideas and produce a variety of responses (or different combinations to create new car designs). Automoblox® helps in developing planning skills. Creativity involves originality, flexibility, independence and playfulness.
- Gross and Fine Motor Skills develops and exercises a child’s sensory and motor modalities. Automoblox® promotes the development of the ability to coordinate precise hand and visual movements, precise movements of the arms, hands and fingers and the ability to develop finger dexterity and speed of motor movements.
- Long Play Times: Automoblox® has many thoughtful details that lead to a surprisingly long play times. From the interchangeable tires, wheels, roofs and body blocks, to the form board inside the car that is created by the geometric feet of the passengers.
- Creation Of Unique Vehicles: Automoblox® gives a child the opportunity to be a car designer. We really wanted to get children thinking about creating vehicles born out of their imagination at a young age.
- Tactile Play Experience: Patented connector system has engineered just the right fit. A wonderful "thunk" accompanies the snapping of blocks together. A delightful "snap" occurs when you click a connector in place. The details are meant to give the child satisfying feedback as they set out to accomplish the task of creating a unique car.
- Sense Of Accomplishment: Creating something new and unique is an
exciting experience. With millions of combinations, the variety of solutions this
dynamically, ever-changing toy provides an excellent framework for creativity.
