Educational learning games are structured plays that have been designed in teaching people especially children for learning about a specific subject and helping them in learning a particular skill during the activity of playing. The primary learning games include board games, card games and video games. Whether you are a kindergarten class teacher, or a primary school teacher, or a parent educating your child through the home education approach, it would already cross your mind that there are several benefits in using educational games for children in the classroom or at home.
You should take note that educational learning games should only serve as supplemental tools for teaching children and in helping them in learning. Those games should never replace the formal teaching tools that are used for educating children in a formal classroom, or the recommended teaching tools used under the home education approach. However, various research studies and educational experts have stated that educational games provide several benefits for children when used as supplemental teaching tools in the classroom, and if used by parents in their home education methods.
The various benefits of using educational learning games for children in the classroom and at the home include developing motor skills especially for preschool children and kindergarten students. Other benefits include the enhancement of creativity and memory skills. Board games in numbers and mathematics would require the child to regularly memorise and repeat a game, which encourages brain activity. Educational games that involve creativity would push the children in thinking of other options for finding an answer.
