For any of the parents, his child is the most intelligent, quick-witted, inquisitive, best and, of course, beloved. Otherwise, what kind of mom and dad would a child have if they were not proud and admired him? But no one canceled objectivity. There is no limit in self-improvement, as they say: "Live for a century, learn for a century." And life sets such conditions that the sooner you start, the better. And constant competition in society suggests that every second baby should be a genius from the cradle, or at least an outstanding personality, be special. And it doesn’t matter what kind of skill it will be - to read fluently at a year and a half or to master arithmetic at the level of a schoolboy at three, to prepare for the world Olympiad at 5 years old or to assemble complex mechanisms at 6 … Accordingly, many parents have a “social toggle switch”: the more they manage to invest in the mind of their young talent, the more successfully the child realizes himself in the future. So, the article will present the best educational games for kids.

As you know, demand createsoffer

A lot of methods have been developed, in particular, developmental programs for children of 5 years old, which allow developing basic skills. These include the sensational Montessori school, and the study of arithmetic according to the Soroban principle, and training according to the Doman method and others.

Of course, it's pointless to compare them, each of them has its own audience, age group and focus. But it seems quite possible to derive general postulates.

For example, each of the founders of these disciplines focuses on a certain age when perceiving information. However, they all agree that at least three important aspects must be taken into account in the development of a child:

• interest (ability in certain disciplines);
• physical and mental development must be inextricably linked;
• don't forget to praise the young explorer.

This is not to say that these are the three pillars on which all training is built, but it is definitely necessary to build on them.

Let's analyze today one of the most important and difficult childhood ages - 5 years old.

This is not yet a schoolboy, but no longer a baby with an unconscious self-identification

This is a personality on the way of becoming and cognition. The period of the absorbent "sponge" is in its prime, so to speak. This is the time when it is very important to classify all the knowledge of a little why, to build cause-and-effect relationships. When you need to explain and show illustrative examples, develop and encourage curiosity, but do not forget that this is primarily a child.

Why are developmental programs for 5 year olds so important

They are needed at least so that parents, in their quest to create an ideal personality, do not take away childhood from their kids. After all, it is so easy to overload a young inquisitive mind, thereby repelling interest in disciplines.

Of course, the age of high technology brings its own innovations such as "Razvivashki" (courses for children from a year old), computer programs (for home study of disciplines), online courses for both parents and children (distance learning).

It has been proven that children are more receptive in the circle of their peers - they remember faster, acquire new skills, learn from each other.

But what about parents who can't afford paid developmental programs for 5 year olds?

There is a way out

And these are educational games for kids. In particular, you can use free Internet sources + creativity + use your own knowledge (transfer of life experience). As already mentioned, communication with peers is required for all-round development, but it is quite possible to make up for it on playgrounds, thereby fulfilling the physical component of education.

Where to start

When choosing any of the development scenarios, it is worth drawing up an action plan, the so-called individual developmental program for the child. This implies the following:

• Determine your baby's temperament. By the age of 5, it's already quitedoable task. From the lessons of biology and psychology, we remember that there are phlegmatic, sanguine, melancholic, choleric. A detailed classification and description can be found in books on psychology.
• Next, you should choose the type of classes specifically for the existing temperament. After all, each of them will have a different degree of perseverance and mobility, attention and dispersion.
• When the preparatory stages of the developmental program for preschoolers are completed, you can proceed to drawing up a lesson plan based on the principle of planning meetings that prepare teachers in schools for lessons. Or purchase an empty schedule that can be filled out and hung in a place visible to the child, thereby accustoming him to a certain daily routine.

The plan might look like this:

Mon.	Tue.	Wed.	Thu	Fri.	Sat.	Sun
charging		charging		charging	active leisure	family vacation
logic	patter	drawing	walk	modelling, construction	watching scientific or geographical broadcasts	watching educational cartoons
ball game	physical education	sport. section/dance	poetry study	physical education
reading	puzzles	certificate	pool	arithmetic
hike toforest	SDA	warm-up	BJD	reading
		application

These actions will allow you to discipline the "young Einsteins" in a playful way. This will make it easier to transfer the adaptation in the garden of the preparatory group and then the school team.

What can be offered to the child to study

Daily developmental programs for working with children must include:

• Creativity - it can be like drawing, modeling, designing, or any other activity that reveals the child's potential and develops fine motor skills. This process will launch the creative component of thinking. Will encourage out-of-the-box thinking and decision making.
• The transfer of one's own experience and knowledge will expand the horizons of a young researcher. It can be hiking in the forest, studying insects, birds - everything that can be attributed to ecology, nature. You can also talk about general safety rules (discipline, labor protection), behavior on the road; conduct training on the rules of etiquette, etc.
• Don't forget about oratory. Speech development lessons can be supplemented by the study of writing and literacy in general. This will allow you to hone and replenish your vocabulary. Develop speech therapy skills in pronunciation of words, work out articulation. All training in the future will contribute to the logical construction of sentences in speech culture, will allow withoutfear of speaking in front of the public, speaking beautifully.
• Arithmetic. Especially if the young researcher has the ability for analytical thinking, simple conclusions, logical conclusions. Then you should pay close attention to the mathematical component of education. In the future, this may develop into a serious hobby and even a profession related to computing processes.

Humanities, mathematics and literature

People are always divided by mindset, there are two types: mathematical and humanitarian. But do not forget that both need spiritual education.

That is why developmental programs for children of 5 years old include the study of fiction. The period of fairy tales is not over yet, but you can already look for options and instill a love for the classics. In Russian literature, there are many works by eminent authors that will excite inquisitive minds. This will broaden the horizons of the child, push to new achievements.

Varieties of programs for preschoolers

Types of developmental programs for children can be as follows:

• Thinking, logic games: connect the picture by dots or by numbers; Russian matryoshka, when you need to line up in ascending (descending) objects, a pyramid and the like.
• Developing programs for children in mathematics: simple counting up to 10, addition (subtraction) examples, made in colorful pictures. Especially inquisitive can be shown the multiplication table.
• Primer, alphabet. We introduce the child toalphabet in a playful way. When you have finished with Russian letters, you can encroach on any foreign one that you plan to deepen your knowledge in the future.
• Categories: cold-hot, left-right, thick-thin, few-many, high-low… When studying this material, you can use any material at hand - your hands, birds flying or walking on the ground, everything that will catch your eye. It will also greatly expand the boundaries of consciousness. Together with your child, you yourself will learn to look for the unusual, to think without patterns.
• Developing game program for children for attention and memory: when it is proposed to find a suitable pair for the subject; find differences between pictures; missing item (what changed when the picture cards were moved); maze game (help cat, mouse, dog find a way out). Nothing complicated, we all played like this in childhood. The advantage is that these exercises can be prepared independently, it is not necessary to purchase training materials.

Of course, do not forget about educational programs, cartoons, but it is advisable to first watch them yourself in order to make sure that the information is presented in an accessible way and does not harm the child's psyche. Depending on the level of knowledge, it will be possible to connect rebuses, puzzles, crossword puzzles, puzzles and other educational games for children.

Man has the right to work and rest

So it is with children. It is advisable to strictly ensure that mental loads alternate with physical ones, otherwise instead of a brilliantAs a result, you can get a depressed child and, as a result, a regression of knowledge.

After all, we are not primarily Einstein or Maria Sklodowska-Curie, but a child. Not everyone is destined to be geniuses, but for us they are already ideal, right? And even if they are future Nobel laureates at least three times, they are just children, our kids who want to run, play, fool around. Do not forget that childhood, like life, is given only once!
