Tic Tac Toe
Let’s play Tic Tac Toe with bricks that are awake or asleep.
Drive the cars to the right parking place.
There are 4 spaces in the parking lot. Don’t mix them up!
To practice listening comprehension and to improve understanding of spatial relationships.
1 baseplate
8 equal-sign bricks
16 or more random bricks
1 bowl
In the middle of the baseplate, build a cross with the random bricks, to create a 4-car parking lot.
Build 4 cars by attaching two equal-sign bricks, one on top of the other, and place them in the bowl.
1
Tell the child to pick a car from the bowl and drive it in the top left parking spot.
2
Continue to give instructions, directing the child to all of the spots until the car park is full.
Suggest the child to have a free play session with the cars!
Preliminary exercise: explore the parking lot and name the locations of each spot – top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right…
Increase the number of cars and / or park several cars in the same spot.
Attaching 2 bricks together make the car taller and easier to feel when parked on the baseplate.
