Simple game, great benefit!

Playing with the beans helps to develop these skills:

1. Attention and concentration: The ability to maintain attention to a specific task for an extended period of time.
2. Body Awareness:Knowing body parts and understanding the body's movement.
3. Bilateral integration: Using two hands together with one hand leading.
4. Hand eye coordination: The ability to process information received from the eyes to control, guide, and direct the hands in the accomplishment of a given task.
5. Hand Dominance: the consistent use of one (usually the same) hand for task performance, which allows refined skills to develop.
6. Self regulation: the ability to obtain, maintain and change alertness level appropriate for a task or situation. 

The interesting part was when he crawled under the table and picked up the spilled beans, one by one.

These skills seemed simple at the first glance but they give great benefits to the child in being smart, creative, good in communication...I'll do some researches and list out the necessary skills. From there, find the games (simple, suitable, interesting) for my son to play.

Play anyway, why not play beneficial games?
