In order to make a craft, he needs to come up with a story, a certain plot, to show his imagination and creative thinking. In order to translate fiction into reality, the child will need such skills as drawing and cutting, the ability to glue, perhaps, to sew and embroider.
In addition to mastering purely mechanical actions and the development of a small motorboat, the use of appliques is useful in terms of education in children of assiduity, purposefulness, and the ability to bring it to the end. Skeptics can now argue and say that the application "Fish" is a very simple occupation, and it is unlikely to bring so much benefit. In many ways, this depends on the nature of the relationship between parents and children. Babies should be given the opportunity to manifest themselves and sometimes make mistakes.
