Before After and During ?
"Before, After and During?" is an educational game that helps children develop a thorough understanding of the concepts of time succession and cause-and-effect, using illustrated sequences that show changes and the actions that cause them.
Detailed Description:
This unique educational tool is designed to stimulate critical thinking in children. Consisting of 72 illustrations divided into three-scene sequences, the game presents the first and third scenes, challenging the child to deduce what happened in between-the "cause" of the change.
The first scene introduces an initial subject, such as an object, person, or setting, while the third scene shows an obvious change in that subject. The child's task is to select or describe what must have happened in the second scene to explain this change, appealing to their skills in reasoning, deduction, and understanding cause-and-effect relationships.
Crafted with clear and engaging illustrations, "Before, After and During?" is an activity that keeps children interested while helping them develop essential skills.
