Physical development – Block play promotes the development of spatial awareness and develops hand-eye coordination as children reach for, lift, move and build with blocks, strengthening their fingers, hands and arms.

Blocks help children learn to take turns and share materials, develop new friendships, become self-reliant, increase attention span, cooperate with others, and develop self-esteem. - Kathleen Harris. Development in all areas.

ancient Greece Waffles have been around for a long time. Food experts think they go back to ancient Greece. There, chefs roasted flat cakes between metal plates fixed to long wooden handles. The Greeks called these cakes obelios, and they weren't as sweet as modern waffles.

Blocks help children learn to take turns and share materials, develop new friendships, become self-reliant, increase attention span, cooperate with others, and develop self-esteem. - Kathleen Harris. Development in all areas. Block play requires fine and gross motor skills.

As simple as blocks may seem, they are one of the most important types of learning tools for young children. Blocks give children an opportunity to express their ideas, interpret what they observe and express their feelings. Children discover height, balance and directionality as they play with blocks.

The added benefits of block and construction play include the development of concentration, spatial awareness, shape recognition, problem-solving skills, social skills, and more. Whether playing on their own or with a sibling, toy blocks teach kids how to overcome challenges and explore the environment around them.

The main principle behind the WAFFLE BLOCK is so children can gain an understanding of how buildings are designed and constructed. The child can experience first hand the process that an engineer can experience when they need to know how a building will stand or fall.

A waffle slab or two-way joist slab is a concrete slab made of reinforced concrete with concrete ribs running in two directions on its underside. The name waffle comes from the grid pattern created by the reinforcing ribs.

A waffle is a leavened batter or dough cooked between two hot plates of a waffle iron, patterned to give a characteristic size, shape, and grid-like surface impression. Waffles are cooked until they become golden-brown in color, with a crispy outer texture and a soft interior.

In Ancient Greece, and later during the Middle Ages, many variations of these cakes were made, which were called obleios (wafers). The first known “waffle” recipe was made in the late 14th century, but is was a waffle in name only, as it did not include a leavening agent.

Blocks have two functions: to group statements so that they can be treated as one statement, and to define scopes for names to distinguish them from the same name used elsewhere.
