Educational games play a crucial role in early childhood education, blending fun and learning to support cognitive, social, and emotional development in children aged 5 to 7. These games foster skills like problem-solving, creativity, and communication. They come in various types, such as board games, puzzle games, and interactive apps, each enhancing different cognitive abilities. Educational games also promote social interaction, teaching empathy and teamwork.
