When I presented PINK TOWER to a few of my 2.5 -3 yo children, I observed that they had a tendency of kicking down the built tower. They did obey when I stopped them, but it seemed that they had less fun.

I remember in Dr. Montessori's book she described children knocking down PINK TOWER and they were joyful at doing so. So I wonder: should I allow the children to do it or stop them?

p.s. How do you deal with the chipped off cubes? Do you repaint by yourself? The floor of our classroom is ceramic tiles so the paint gets chipped off easily.

Thanks!
