This encourages the child to use <strong>logic and creativity<\/strong> in the construction of the path. In order to completely experience the gaming experience, the user must <strong>imagine<\/strong> the path and make sure that his thoughts are translated into a <strong>practicable and functional track<\/strong> for the marbles. The creative aspect is also stimulated by the <strong>error<\/strong>: the child will hardly be able to build a running track without following the instructions, will have to try, go wrong and try again to achieve a satisfactory result. That of the error is one of the most frequent and fruitful learning mechanisms of human nature; It is crucial for the child&#8217;s growth to get used to temporary failure and to teach him to look at it as a growth opportunity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a narrow field.&#8221; (Niels Bohr, physicist)<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For the type of product and the logical process required for its construction, <strong>Cuboga<\/strong> can be included in the category of toys that helps develop <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Computational_thinking\"><strong>computational thinking<\/strong><\/a>. This <em>&#8220;is the mental process underlying the formulation of problems and their solutions so that solutions are represented in a form that can be effectively implemented by a human or artificial information processor&#8221;<\/em> according to the definition of <strong>Jeannette Wing<\/strong>, director of the Department of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. We have already talked about this subject in the past when dealing with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/hands-coding-preschoolers\/\"><strong>coding<\/strong> <\/a>articles, precisely because this practice perfectly embodies the\u00a0computational thinking logic of formulation and resolution of problems;\u00a0<strong>Cuboga<\/strong> however, unlike the analyzed toys all of with a digital base, is <strong>totally analogic<\/strong> perhaps because it is not directly designed to teach programming. The <strong>analog &#8211; digital<\/strong> parallelism in coding education is natural: as in &#8216;tech&#8217; programming toys a child need to combine a set of tiles with different functions to achieve a goal (whether it is a hurdle or one action), in Cuboga the tiles and the app are replaced by cubes and joints that the player has to match to make the marble move smoothly from start to finish.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4408\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"886\" height=\"886\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7.png 886w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7-160x160.png 160w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7-320x320.png 320w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/an-essential-design-toy-that-develops-computational-thinking_7-640x640.png 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 886px) 100vw, 886px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another one\u00a0interesting aspect does not concern specifically <strong>Cuboga<\/strong>, but\u00a0more in\u00a0general the <strong>process of purchasing<\/strong> the product through the Quercetti website.
