• CausalWorld: A Robotic Manipulation Benchmark for Causal Structure and Transfer Learning (2020, background): “A remarkable skill that humans learn to master relatively early on in their life is building complex structures using their spatial-reasoning and dexterous manipulation abilities (Casey et al., 2008; Caldera et al., 1999; Kamii et al., 2004).”
• The Development of Spatial Skills Through Interventions Involving Block Building Activities (2008, background): “Furthermore, Kamii and colleagues ( Kamii, Miyakawa, & Kato, 2004 ) observed toddlers and preschoolers in open-ended block play, and concluded that the inherent geometric properties of blocks encourage the development of logico-mathematical thinking in young children (ie, the understanding of space ”
