What a delight it was to watch a number of children play with Brick Mates! No screens, no sequins and no television characters. But more importantly, these toys naturally engage a number of cognitive areas at once: visuospatial functioning, executive functioning (planning and organization) as well as higher order categorization and even early language skills. Brick mates, like Legos, move seamlessly from more organized, step-by-step driven tasks to free-form creative play. These are brain-building toys that can be used independently, cooperatively or even therapeutically. I can’t say enough about them, they’re magic.

What Parents & Teachers Are Saying…
Parents, Teachers & Doctors alike love Brick Mates and so do the little ones!
-
We have BrickMates Stack By Numbers and Lock and Learn at my Daycare and the kids LOVE them! Our kids often ask to take them home to play with them and I was told by a few parents that their child had asked for them. The best part about each puzzle is the children are learning patience, math skills, abstract and critical thinking throughout their “play time”. The teachers are very happy that it’s not another project to clean up since the blocks snap into place on the board. Everyone is happy and that is hard to achieve these days!
Helps Quickly Develop Age-Appropriate Skills
Brick Mates help your child play with a purpose.
Cognitive Skills
Learn Problem-Solving & Early Engineering: Your child will identify that pushing bricks down locks them in place, popping them up is easier than dumping & that the art will not look the same if the bricks aren’t in place.
Emotional Skills
Learn Patience, Self-Esteem & Coping Skills: An important emotional milestone is learning how to cope when something doesn’t work right away as well as the patience to figure out the solution and achieve success.
Educational Skills
Learn Science, Math & Art: Your child will learn what numbers represent, use scientific strategies to solve the puzzles, shape sorting, counting & qualifying in addition to infusing imagination & art appreciation.
Physical Skills
Develop Strong Motor Skills: Hold Bricks, position them, snap them down, turn them to line up the edges & more. No directions, needed, your creative little one will figure it out through brain building trial and error.
