5 years As children grow older, their ability to learn also increases exponentially. At four to five years, children begin to ask difficult questions on larger social themes such as relationships, sex, and race. Children partly resolve these questions through play—by pretending, dressing up, literally stepping into another’s shoes, and asking a multitude of questions. Give children games that encourage them to ask questions and explore different scenarios.

Sherlock It’s elementary, my dear. Memory only gets stronger if you exercise it. Try even your brainpower with this multi-awarded children’s game. Players have approximately 30 seconds to remember eight images on cards lying face up. After the time runs out, cards are flipped over and an appointed Sherlock now tests the players’ memories. Every correct answer earns a player a card and the first to earn six cards wins. Get more players in the game by adjusting the difficulty level for younger age groups; ask younger players to remember just four out of the eight images, advises Sherlock’s exclusive Philippine distributor. Available at Hobbes and Landes for P550. Exclusively distributed by Playroom Entertainment, contact Alem Ang (ang.alem@gmail.com) for inquiries.
