Playing with toys is the first opportunity a child has to explore and interact with the world on their own terms. To children, toys are more than just objects: they are companions, teachers, and super heroes that help guide them through a big and sometimes confusing world. They assist the physical, cognitive and emotional development that prepares children for adulthood. The Creativity Institute divides toys into four categories:
Toys for physical or muscle development such as wagons, bikes, boxes, puzzles, blocks, brooms, and shovels.
Toys for sensory (touch, sight, sound, taste, smell) development such as water toys, musical instruments, bubbles, play dough, and sand toys.
Toys for make-believe and social development such as dolls, dress-up clothes, cars, trucks, games, and books.
Toys for creative and intellectual development such as clay, crayons, paints, books, paper, and scissors. At Billie & Roo we believe the best toys are ones that engage a child’s senses, spark their imaginations, and encourage them to interact with others. We love toys!
Arts and crafts are not only a great way to enjoy some quiet time for relaxing, or to join with friends to share ideas and banter, but are an important part of your child's learning journey.
Arts and crafts time is a great opportunity for fun and self-expression - providing a safe and enjoyable medium for a child to express their creativity and explore ideas - and is perfect for the development of essential skills. Limited only to the child's imagination, arts and crafts activities provide fun, interactive ways of helping children develop fine motor skills, improve hand-eye co-ordination, problem-solve, express emotions, and learn about colours, shapes and textures. Children are able to build persistence to complete a task and feel a sense of accomplishment from having created their own, one of a kind, masterpiece; in turn building independence and self-esteem.
Wanting to bring as much love, laughter and learning into the world through healthy, sustainable choices and good old-fashioned fun, Natural Living Foster (our physical store) and Billie & Roo were born. So what started off as a small kinesiology practice with a few healthy living products and a passion to protect our beautiful planet, soon became so much more. The joy we share with customers each day, whether in person or upon the opening of a new toy through the mail, is why we’re here. We hope you can be a part of our journey … we’d love to have you aboard.
