PARENTS: Sometimes parts of a puzzle, a toy house, or a build-it-yourself locomotive or truck do not come together in the way a child planned. When this happens, the child sifts and sorts and changes some of the parts to see if he can make the object work through a different arrangement. This type of creative thinking develops into more sophisticated problem solving for the child. Each time a child succeeds on his own terms, the child is satisified . The child begins to feel that the world is at his fingertips. MY WORD: Everyday a child learns something new and exciting.
