The Robot is a toy made of large and small cubes where the child has to join the pieces. These games to connect or fit together are part of the activities that children can develop from the first years. It recognizes shapes, characteristics, and colors, exercises coordination and manipulation, managing to put the pieces in their correct place. These toys arouse the curiosity of the little ones, training them to discover and solve problems.

- Talk and tell him that he is a robot that has many pieces.
- Begin by gently pulling the pieces out to capture the child’s gaze.
- Reassemble the robot, trying to get the little one to observe you.
- Place the toy near the little one so he can experiment on his own.
