In our current time, it's unfortunate that children are exposed to their televisions, video games and other electronic products. A recent survey conducted in 2011 showed that over 85% of children under the age of five actively watch television as part of their daily routine. In addition, scientists from New York, USA discovered that exposure to electronic based products at an early age can reduce a child's attention span in later life. Additionally, the mental development of children is also severely affected. While the side-effects may not be seen immediately, attention span effectively leads to children not being able to focus on their studies in later life.

Matador is a business based in New Zealand who aim to redefine the child educational toys market in a new, unique and exciting manner. Currently, they offer traditional wooden toy construction sets which actively aims to promote motor and mental development. Their products are specifically tailored to help keep children actively engaged in learning from a young age. Their toys teach patience, concentration and persistence - all of which help to improve their education in later life.

As children begin to develop, it's important to actively engage their brains and have them thinking about day-to-day obstacles. Today's children are getting lower exam results and show less willingness to learn in further education. While this may be directly attributed to electronic products, it's also often down to their early education. Before children reach infants school, it's important to engage them in education and help them to actively engage in learning.
