Spatial Skills for Success:
Spatial skills predict a young person's achievement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
It's the mental feat that architects and engineers perform when they design buildings.
The capacity that permits a chemist to contemplate the three-dimensional structure of a molecule, or a surgeon to navigate the human body.
A Proven Pedagogical Approach:
Like its predecessor, Busy Shapes 2 is inspired by Swiss clinical psychologist, Jean Piaget's pioneering theory of cognitive development.
Piaget believed that children in their earliest stage of development learn best by exploring and manipulating the world around them.
What's more, children will be instantly captivated by a peaceful color palette and surreal gaming environment as they move seamlessly through each carefully crafted level.
