Hoe doe je deze activiteit

Waarom het werkt

Sorting activities done together create opportunities for conversation, turn-taking, and shared focus on a simple task. These interactions provide scaffolding for communication and relationship building. Children who participate regularly in family activities show 25% better emotional regulation and social skills (Roehlkepartain & Leffert, 2000). Playing together with everyday objects shows your child that spending time with you is valuable, building positive associations with shared activities.

Tips voor ouders

Don't worry about sorting correctly. Just playing with the objects together is the goal. Follow their lead if they want to use the items differently than you planned.
