Sistematización de la experiencia de la creación de un juguete didáctico que potencie todas las áreas de desarrollo a partir de los niños de 2 años

Abstract

In the educational context within the area of initial education, it can be seen that there is a lack of educational toys that favor the development of skills and abilities for children. In Guayaquil, within the toy market, it was possible to find a series of didactic elements for the game, but not for education. These games are based only on children's entertainment without any educational purpose or encouragement of autonomous learning. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to design a prototype of didactic toy for children from 2 to 3 years old, as an enhancer of the different areas of development such as: cognitive, language, fine and gross motricity, as well as social and affective. To do this, an exhaustive field investigation was carried out, which allowed us to create the SPLIT toy, which was designed by the group and tested in institutions of different socioeconomic status in the city of Guayaquil. Modifications were made to this prototype and then it was re-tested for its final presentation. A socialization of the prototype was carried out with the institutions involved in the research, where the purpose was to make people aware of the importance of the toy for the integral development of the children and also about the indispensable part that is the emotional bond for the interaction and development of the game.
