This is one of the 30 videos included in the FREE Sparkabilities TotBox app for iPhone and iPad. This Pattern and 3D shape video is from Level 5 and demonstrates a sphere and a cone 3D shape and their relation to the 2D shapes that form them. Pattern sequences are also shown and encourage your child to guess what comes next in the sequence! Pattern recognition and prediction are an important part of early cognitive development. Play fun games with your child at home using common household objects to stimulate pattern recognition and prediction skills. Also, try pointing out everyday objects that are spheres and cones. These games help your child understand that these concepts are not abstract but exist all around them and are part of their everyday life.

Enjoy this video and many more! The Sparkabilities TotBox app for iPhone and iPad is available on the App Store. Sparkabilities DVDs are available at www.sparkabilities.com. Thank you for watching.
