The series helps toddlers understand and practice concepts such as, “What is the exception?” and “What is missing?”. Suitability and puzzles. Toddlers are invited to try and solve each puzzle along with Sophie, Hippa and Bow Wow. There are many commercial board games that focus on similar subjects. Playing such games at home can help build your child’s confidence in these subjects. Sophie, Hippa and Bow Wow play imaginative games with an object they have uncovered in the tree. The doll, hippo and dog, like young toddlers, have a great time playing guessing games in this exciting fun-filled show. This series invites your child to discover first concepts by addressing the varied information they have already gathered from their environment and applying it in a fun game. Your small child is always happy to play a new game with you. Take the games you have seen on the guessing games and see if you can play the sound game, or at any other games.
