Last Sunday, as I sat with my son for a scrumptious breakfast, the conversation led to summer vacations and where he would like to travel. We have never taken him on an animal safari, and I suggested we take our first this year. Soon, the conversation led to endangered animals.
Animal Extinction is a serious issue that affects the biodiversity of our planet. It is estimated that thousands of species go extinct every year due to human activities such as habitat destruction, pollution, hunting, and climate change. Studies have also shown that as many as 30 to 50 percent of all species may go extinct by 2050. The loss of these species can have a ripple effect on the ecosystem and ultimately impact our own lives as well.
For our kids to comprehend the ecosystem's balance and the value of conservation, they must learn about endangered animals and their plight.
I firmly believe that the only way we can educate people about conservation is through conversation. The Endangered Animals of India series of floor puzzles, which can be entertaining and educational, is designed with this in mind.
-
Sparks interest: Puzzles require concentration, and patience, and also enhance mental agility and brain function. Working on endangered animal puzzles can improve cognitive skills, such as problem-solving, spatial reasoning, and memory retention. I specifically chose vivid colors to illustrate the puzzle pieces because they encourage children to concentrate and learn.
-
Animal knowledge: As a mother and businesswoman, I think toys should be straightforward and hassle-free. My goal in creating the Endangered Animal of India Series floor puzzles was to make one that would encourage conversation between parents and their kids. Children can better understand the ecosystem and the pressing need to preserve it by seeing images of the Asiatic Lion and One Horned Rhino.
-
Connecting the dots: Puzzle solving can also be a collaborative activity either with a friend or a parent. Solving the same together makes the exchange of information easier. We can talk to children about most basic human habits which they observe around, such as deforestation or pollution and its negative impact on wildlife. Once the puzzle is complete, we can brainstorm ways to mitigate these impacts, as well.
- Puzzles can also be used to inspire kids to take action in order to save endangered species. For instance, as parents, we can discuss wildlife protection organizations while our children are working on the puzzles or offer simple adjustments to the daily schedule to lessen their impact on the environment.
The animal puzzle from Alt Retail is a significant way to spread awareness of this crucial issue. Our puzzle series can be an excellent way to learn about threatened and endangered species, whether you're a teacher looking for educational resources, a parent like me wanting to involve the child in a fun and educational activity, or you simply want to give your child a new challenge.
