If your child gets stuck while trying to choose the correct food, there is a help \u201chelp\u201d button, which narrows the choice to two pieces of food the animal might eat. This proved quite handy, as my sons favourite fruit is an apple and so he selected this to eat for every animal and he even insisted that the fish should eat the apples! Hmm- I have got to watch him closely the next time we are at the aquarium in the Zoo. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze-300x150.jpg\" alt=\"Kids_Games_Labyrinth\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze-624x312.jpg 624w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Maze.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Labyrinth<\/strong> game exercises logical thinking, balance and co-ordination.

This was the most challenging for my son and to be honest he is still getting the hang it. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound-300x150.jpg\" alt=\"Kids_Games_Guess_Sound\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound-624x312.jpg 624w, https:\/\/maglusstylus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Kids_Games_Guess_Sound.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The<strong> Who says it<\/strong> game &#8211; will teach your child to distinguish animals by their sounds.
