Learn to Play - Object Substitution | 從遊戲中學習 - 物件替代

In the world of make-believe, children work their magic by turning one thing into something completely different.

As kids engage in pretend play, they're actually sharpening their minds. How? By giving everyday objects new jobs and qualities!

At just 2 years old, kids start using things that look similar to stand in for other things – like transforming a simple box into a cozy bed.

As they grow, their creativity knows no bounds. Suddenly, that same box can be a spaceship, a comfy pillow, or even a cool robot friend!

And guess what? They'll even master the art of using things that don't seem related at all. A shoe? Nope, it's a phone now!

So, next time you catch your little one turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, know that they're building essential skills through the magic of imagination!

Feel free to connect with our Occupational Therapist if you're curious to know if your kids are performing at the expected level for their age!

- 探索想像遊戲：孩子們的物件替代 在幻想的世界中，孩子們能發揮創意將一樣物件變成完全不同的東西。 當孩子參與假想遊戲時，他們通過賦予日常物品全新的角色來學習新的思考能力！ 在只有2歲的時候，他們開始使用外觀相似的東西來替代其他東西 – 例如將一個簡單的盒子變成舒適的床一樣。 隨著年齡的增長，他們的創造力無限擴展。突然間，同一個盒子可以變成宇宙飛船，軟綿綿的枕頭，甚至是犀害的機器人朋友！ 他們甚至會掌握使用起初看起來毫不相關的物品的技巧。一隻鞋？不，現在它是手機了！ 所以，下次你發現你的孩子將尋常之物變成了非凡之物，要知道他們正通過想像力來培養重要的技能！ 如果想了解你的孩子是否達到了預期年齡水平，請隨時與我們的職業治療師聯繫！
