Games for kids and for the little ones. We develop a child in a year

Hello blog readers! Today I want to talk about the most popular games with a one-year-old child. There are a lot of them, but I will highlight a few. How to play with a child at 1 year old?

Your baby is one year old… He crawls well, begins to walk independently, pronounces some words “mom, dad, give, nanny-yum” and actively learns about the world around him. From a year to two, a child is interested in everything: he begins to use a spoon on his own, spread porridge on the table and on his own, taste everything, touch it.

Parents and adults who are involved with him should help the kid increase vocabulary in a playful way, develop his thinking, walking skills, motor skills and other skills.

In order to understand how to play with a child at 1 year old, you need to learn that classes should bring joy and positive emotions to your child. You can play with the little one everywhere: on the street, at home and at a party. On a walk, tell him: this is the sky, trees, sand, etc. Show, pronounce what color objects are. So the child will remember more words, learn shapes, colors.

Outdoor games

Tear off a leaf, let the child sniff it, stroke it, shake it. An adult at this moment must describe the object. For example, the leaf is green, small, smooth. In the learning process, let the baby touch the tree trunk and say "it's big, rough." Try to remind more often “this is a tree”, “this is a leaf”. To check if the child remembers the names, ask him the question “where ...”, if he remembers, he will point to the desired item.

Playing in nature with a one-year-old child, seemingly elementary actions help develop spatial thinking in a child. Show the difference far/near, thick/thin. Come or bring the little man to the tree. Let him try to hug him, and say in a low voice: “thick trunk”, then let the baby hug the trunk thinner, and you say in a thin voice: “thin”.

Children show great interest in playing with pebbles. You can draw a circle and show them that you need to hit a stone within it (you can change it to a hoop with a ball) or draw a line and throw stones beyond it. In the warm season, you can allow the child to throw stones into a puddle, touch it, stamp a foot into it (of course, if you have wet wipes on hand). All this is included in the cognitive process: how the sprays fly, how the puddle changes.

It’s good if a child at 1 year old knows how to focus on the game, and does not stick around on the playground. Interest in stones can be interesting to beat. Divide the pebbles into piles: in one large, in the other small, or in one light, in the other dark. Let a one-year-old child compare which pebble is larger / smaller. In the sandbox, the stone can be buried / dug up.

Parents should be glad that the baby shows interest in stones, sticks and other objects and actions with them, because this develops his imaginative and logical thinking. He needs to independently throw, touch, break, shift. Ordinary objects, in comparison with ready-made toys, provide more opportunities for the development of fantasy.

One year olds love to play in the sandbox. You can draw on the sand with your finger or stick. Molds and spatulas will come in handy. If these are not available, ordinary sour cream cups and spoons will do to make sand cakes.

Constructor

You can spend leisure time with a child of 1 year using the designer. This activity develops sensorimotor skills and fine motor skills. The pieces should be about the size of a baby's palm (too small blocks can be swallowed by a child). Compiling figures (castles, garages, etc.), he develops a fantasy. The blocks at the designer are produced in different colors in order for young children to study them. Adults, during the game, should pronounce the name of the color so that the learning process is organic.

With the help of different sizes of parts of the designer (large and small), the baby will learn to understand the difference which parts are larger / smaller. Together build towers of different heights, and explain to him which is higher and which is lower. The development of fine motor skills in a one-year-old baby is promoted by elementary actions for adults, for example, tearing off adhesive tape from a designer. Teach him to wrap the details of the designer in foil, and then unfold them back.

Bring interesting ideas to life. For example, stick one picture on several parts of the designer, separate it and ask the kid to assemble the whole picture from the parts.

Plasticine

From the age of one, you can teach your child to work with plasticine (dough). It can be plucked, cut, rolled, created in different shapes (kolobok, sausage and others). Classes with plasticine train fine motor skills, develop creative thinking, imagination. Modeling makes it possible to perceive three-dimensional images, positively affects the intellectual and emotional development of the crumbs.

Music lessons

Children's songs are good educational games for a child of 1 year old. They contribute to mental development, memorization of certain actions, parts of the body: “we stomp our feet, clap our hands”, etc.

Development of the imagination

Drawing is one of the most necessary activities at this tender age. This is a way to build a trusting relationship between an adult and a child. You can start by using finger paints. It is better to take sheets of large size so that he feels room for action (you can take wallpaper). Sponges, napkins can serve as prints. Give the child the opportunity to draw kalyaki malaki as much as he wants.

Over time, he himself will want to highlight lines, shapes, colors. Wax crayons can be offered as writing utensils, and felt-tip pens should be put aside for later.

Doll games

With a one-year-old child, you can play the same thing many times. Like feeding a doll. Only then does he realize what is required of him and remember the game. Help him push the stroller with the doll, or feed the whole army of toys, or roll the car. Some children themselves are included in the game, others will study the simplest entertainments for a long time. The main task is to teach the action with the subject (combing, putting to bed, etc.), so that later he can play on his own.

In a playful way, it is necessary to develop the baby's breathing so that he can easily pronounce all the sounds. Let him blow snowflakes from the palm of his hand, which will be made of cotton, polystyrene, pieces of paper. Teach him how to blow out the candles.

Children are delighted with the games on their knees, which end with the words “into the hole of boo”, and the child seems to fall into the abyss. It is useful to play with a massage ball.

Before going to bed, a child at 1 year old can be entertained with calm games, picture books (show in the picture “the dog is sleeping”, “the cat is washing himself”), massage with rhymes.

After 1 year, the baby actively absorbs information, learns the world around him, learns to communicate with parents and others in an “adult way”. It is important to support the aspirations of the child, to direct his energy in the right direction, to interest, to fill the life of a little man with vivid emotions.

Educational games for children from 1 to 2 years old at home are an affordable way to enrich the inner world, broaden their horizons, improve speech and physical development. Each section describes useful, effective exercises on various topics. Most games are played with accessible, inexpensive equipment. Sometimes nothing is required at all, except for the desire to help the baby move to a new stage of development.

Development of agility, coordination of movements and strengthening of muscles

Always show your child how to do the exercise. Consider the level of physical development, Gradually increase the difficulty of tasks.

Track

Create a limited space, lay out curbs for the path from cubes, rope, small toys. Show yourself how to pass a segment of the path. Take the baby by the hand, walk along the path. Change the width (from 30 cm to 1 meter) and the length of the path (as much as the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room allows).

Gradually complicate the task: create turns, make a "snake". Teach your child not to knock down fences, walk inside the track. For a change, show how to stomp along the path on toes, heels, and move in jumps.

Bowling

Arrange plastic pins, light boxes or cubes, give the child a ball, show how to roll it, knock down objects. First you need a large diameter ball, later buy a smaller one.

Overcoming obstacles

Invite your son or daughter to crawl under a table, a large chair. Lead by example (of course, crawl where your build allows). Buy a couple of fitballs, show how you can crawl on all fours around them or between the balls.

More options:

• sit on the floor, bend your knees. Let the little sportsman crawl under them;
• get on all fours, arch your back up like a cat. The child should crawl under you.

ball games

Classes are always of great interest:

• mom (dad) and baby sit on the floor opposite. Roll the ball to each other;
• take a medium-sized ball, show how to throw it on the floor. Give the ball to the baby in the hands, repeat the same action together. Now ask the child to throw the ball on their own;
• buy balloons, inflate. Task: toss the ball up so that it does not fall to the floor. Always show how to act;
• accurate shooter. You will need a box plus a ball. The task is to throw the ball into the box. Change the size of the ball and capacity, the distance to the box.

jumper

Start simple, gradually complicate the task. Make sure that there are no sharp corners, heavy objects nearby. Have fun from the heart.

Types of jumps:

• take the child under the armpits (by the handles), jump together. Sing a funny song, for example: “Jump-jump, jump-jump, the bunny jumps into the tower”;
• later show how the bunny jumps. "Paws" in front, bent at the elbows;
• next exercise: lift a soft toy above the child’s head, let him jump, get it. Know the measure so that the baby is not upset if you hold the bear too high.

Charging with music

Entertainment plus health promotion. Doing exercises with fun, rhythmic music is much more interesting than just counting. Do it with enthusiasm so that the child understands: charging is not a punishment, but a useful, fun thing.

The most dexterous

Options:

• lay out small objects with non-sharp edges on the floor. The task for the child is to walk from one end of the room to the other, stepping over small pillows or newspaper balls;
• put rings or hoops on the floor so that the baby can easily step from one to another. The task is to go through the room along the chain of hoops.

Classes for the formation of speech and communication skills

Work out at home, on a walk, talk with your baby more often. Create a pleasant atmosphere, praise for achievements, never humiliate your son or daughter if the child cannot understand how to complete the task for a long time.

Singing out words

A simple, effective exercise for the development of speech. Sing in syllables: “Ma - she and I - let's eat. Se - year - nya on o - bad taste - on - I ka - sha and cat - le - that. Ask the baby to sing something, for example: “Ma - sha boo - baby, eat.”

Fairy tale with repetition

A fun game for the development of speech. Remember: “Someone lives in a little house, someone lives in a low one?” Also: “Grandfather pulls and pulls a turnip, but he can’t pull it out.” Soon the child will repeat the words, phrases after you.

Cuckoo

A useful game not only entertains children, but also develops parts of the brain. Pronounce "ku-ku" in different ways:

• close your eyes with your hands, let the baby repeat after you;
• cover the baby's face with your palms, after the words "cuckoo" remove the handles;
• hide behind the door and look out after the word "cuckoo";
• teach your child to cover your face with your palms, to say “cuckoo”.

Have pity on the doll

Show how to pump, feed, put to bed soft toys, baby dolls, dolls. Buy small cribs, high chairs, a table so that the baby has a place to practice. If there is no such set yet, select a large chair for games, on which you can equip a house for animals and dolls.

A useful game develops the skills of caring for living beings. Learn to feel sorry for toys, treat animals, sing songs to them.

We speak with different voices

A fun, exciting game perfectly trains the speech apparatus. Sing a song or say a familiar phrase from a poem in your normal voice, then high, then low.

The pronunciation always makes children laugh if you press your nose with your thumb and forefinger (you get a nasal voice). Different voices is an effective exercise to familiarize yourself with speech patterns.

Fees for a walk

Game for the development of imagination, speech skills, mental abilities. After a year and a half, many children love to dress up their dolls, soft animals. Invite your child to take their favorite toy for a walk, but assemble it “in an adult way”, with clothes, shoes, and other useful accessories.

Ask questions, develop a thought so that the child creates logical chains.

Here are some questions:

• Who will you take for a walk?
• What will the bear wear?
• What hat is suitable for a bear?
• What to put on a teddy bear's legs?
• What to take if it's raining?
• What will happen if the bear goes for a walk without socks and shoes?
• How will you treat the bear cub if he catches a cold?
• What will we feed the bear for a walk?
• What sweets does your teddy bear like? And so on.

We take care of loved ones

Does the kid already know how to feed his animals and dolls? Offer to take care of mom, dad, sister, grandmother, other family members. Show that you are tired, accidentally hit a corner, want to eat, and so on. During the game, the child learns to sympathize, to show care.

Advice! Don't overplay by pretending to hit. There is no need to cry sobbing, otherwise the child will be frightened. Show that you feel better after his "treatment", thank the little doctor.

Who says what

Pick up cards with images of animals, beasts, birds. Be sure to add a picture with a drawn baby. Choose large, clear images.

Your actions:

• point to the first picture, say: "This is a cow, she says M-u-u-u." Ask your son or daughter to repeat, say several times;
• when the first character is learned, move on to the second and so on;
• later, ask the child to tell as much information about the living thing as possible.

We turn into animals

Essence:

• pick up a few cards with a picture of a cat, dog, cow, donkey, chicken, and so on;
• take turns taking out cards from a pile, depict an animal or a bird from the picture;
• do not be shy, show the baby an example, ask him to demonstrate a dog or chicken;
• first, choose familiar animals and birds that the child saw on the street or with friends (relatives) at home.

Activities that develop specific skills

Pick up a few boring exercises to develop dexterity, understanding the concepts of "more - less", perseverance, learning different colors. As the game progresses, the child will learn to build a house, draw, sculpt, repeat certain actions for you.

Here are some useful, interesting activities:

• building a house, tower, garage from cubes;
• pyramid games, comparison of rings by color and size (per year);
• drawing with finger paints, felt-tip pens, pencils;
• arrangement of toys (dolls, animals) by height;
• modeling from plasticine;
• laying out pictures from coffee beans (closer to two years);
• classes with a nesting doll (the child learns to disassemble, assemble, combine a drawing);
• search for items in different corners of the room;
• laying out a traffic light from circles;
• a description of the items that the baby uses every day (toothbrush, crib, spoon, pot, cup);
• comparison of the properties of different objects. For example, a hard cube is a soft pillow, liquid tea is loose salt, light cotton wool is a heavy spoon, and so on.

Many psychologists recommend classes with a designer. The game develops several skills at once: perseverance, imagination, fine motor skills. For children under two years old, choose a simple designer with bright, large details, convenient grooves. Show a sample in the photo, let your imagination run wild: let the kid come up with the object he wants to build. Help, but do not do the work for your son or daughter.

Imagination games and creative tasks

Useful activities:

• invent fairy tales about your favorite toys, loved ones, the baby himself and his parents;
• offer several cardboard boxes, watch how the child adapts them for play;
• together make a gift to relatives. Even at 1.5 years old, children can use finger paints to create a handprint or a flower from strokes;
• offer to build a garage for cars or a house for dolls from improvised materials: chairs, boxes, cubes;
• play tourists. A ready-made house made of soft fabric on a rigid basis is perfect. Children like the "tent" of a blanket stretched over two chairs;
• arrange a concert for dad and other family members. At 2 years old, children can show a lot of funny movements, sing a simple song. Turn on funny songs, sing along, participate in the performance;
• unusual instruments. Show how you can make a drum out of a bucket (plastic, not metal) and a regular spoon. So that the baby does not pester everyone with drumming, offer “real” instruments: a metallophone, a toy piano.

Pick up a few games, see what activities are more interesting for your son or daughter. Do not think that in the period from one to two children still know little, they are poorly versed in many things. The kid often surprises adults with his imagination and skills. Useful, exciting games for children from one to two years old will help all-round development, give the joy of communicating with parents and the outside world.

From the following video you can learn about educational board games for young children:

The thought of a child from 1 to 2 years old cannot yet do without a hand, the baby “thinks with his hands” (K. Hutt), disassembling, scratching, breaking. Thus, the baby transforms objects into a form accessible to him. The child's thinking is occupied with what is nearby, what can be touched, felt, tasted, unscrewed or disassembled. The understanding of the speech addressed to the child is developing more and more, at the age of 2, the baby not only replenishes the vocabulary, but also builds sentences. The child begins to actively use speech for communication, it becomes a means of developing thinking and regulating behavior. The kid more and more masters object actions (handling objects according to their generally accepted purpose), curiosity grows, the first questions appear: “What is this?”, “Why?”, “Why?” The perception of color, shape, size develops. The child continues to show play actions in the form of imitation of the actions and behavior of adults. Improved coordination. The child is accustomed to cleanliness and self-regulation of their physiological functions.

Head is not spinning

I stare upward.

The kid quickly learns the principle of moving up, the situation is more complicated with the descent, so at first it is recommended for adults to shoot him from the reached height. In the future, he will master under your control the descent from the stairs.

I'm slowly descending

From a small peak.

I put my foot carefully

I lower my hand quietly.

When the child is comfortable, give him a bucket or basket in his hands. Ask the baby to collect toys in a bucket or a small basket, and say:

I carry, I carry a box,

I'm going for a berry in Borok,

There are no berries in the forest,

There is no red in the forest.

I carry, I carry a box,

I'm going for mushrooms in Borok,

There are no mushrooms in the forest

I'll take an ant.

In the future, the task can be complicated: lay the toys either on a bench or on the floor and again ask the baby to collect them in a bucket or basket. Observe how the child copes with the task, praise for the manifestation of independent decisions. Be sure to praise the child, and as a reward, let him play with the collected toys.

The kid should try to carry the sled behind him, while you explain to him the meaning of the proverb: “If you like to ride, love to carry sleds.” The child really likes to do a lot of things himself, so this should not be a problem. If the problem still arises, try to distract the baby and leave the slide. If the situation repeats itself again, then you will repeat your actions. The kid will definitely understand what you don’t tell him about and why you don’t lecture. Be sure to praise your child for any manifestation of independence.

1. Games for the development of the creative abilities of a child 1-2 years old

1. Games that activate the cognitive and creative abilities of children

Note to parents. Most children learn facts with enviable ease, but it is more important that they can acquire knowledge and express ideas on their own.

1. Up down

The purpose of the game: the development and consolidation of the names of the directions of movement up and down, the speed of reaction.

Necessary materials and visual aids: tennis ball, sketchbook, colored pencils, Swedish ladder.

Game progress.

1st option: put the child facing you, pick up a tennis ball, throw it up, then throw the ball down from a small height or just let it go. Do the movements several times, while saying:

Head raised, so up,

If lowered, then down.

Be sure to check how the child learned head movements with the concepts of "up" and "down". Ask the child to show with his hand how the ball flies up and down. Give the child a ball in his hands, tell a short story about how the ball loves to fly and jump, while asking the child to show how the ball jumps up and down, and then vice versa: up, down.

2nd option: use the previously described game "Top climber", when conducting it, tell the baby:

We climb up, we raised our heads,

We go down, head lowered.

After the child descends from a height, check how he learned the concepts of "up" and "down".

Option 3: On a landscape sheet, draw an arrow showing the direction up or down. Tell the kid a fairy tale about a cunning arrow that wanted to confuse everyone so that no one knew where it was flying, but a magician came and unraveled the secret of the arrow. Explain how the arrow is arranged: it has a tail (body) and a roof of the house (point), it moves with the point forward. Explain to the baby how you can find out where the arrow flies: “Look at the arrow, where is the roof of the house (point)? If the head is raised, it means that the arrow flies up, if it is lowered, then it is down.

Draw a few arrows on the album sheet, ask the baby to figure out where the arrow is flying, for clarification, ask him to show the direction of the arrow with his hand.

Another trick: in order to unravel the movements of the arrow, you need to take a pencil and draw a line from the tail of the arrow to the roof of the house, if the hand runs away from the baby, it means up, if it approaches, then the arrow flies down.

Note to parents.The child most of all loves incredible stories. Use them when you play with your baby.

1. Back and forth

Goals of the game: development and consolidation of the names of the direction of movement forward and backward, speed of reaction, coordination of movement, attention, development of the visual and auditory, vestibular analyzer.

Necessary materials and visual aids: toys, stool, toy box, whistle.

Game progress.

1st option: put a stool at a short distance from the baby, a box with toys near the child. Ask to take the toy to the stool on the whistle. When the whistle blows, tell the baby clearly and clearly: "Go ahead." After he puts the toy on the stool, say: "Come back." When your child approaches you, blow the whistle to bring the toy back to the box.

2nd option: tell the child about the cunning eyes (parents' improvisation): a long time ago, all the animals did not walk the way they do now, but the way the eyes want (which means forward) or back (back).

Invite the child to try to go where the eyes and back want, while giving the command: “Eyes go forward”, “Back back”. In the future, omit the words "eyes", "back": "Forward, backward."

The performance of the game requires coordination from the baby, in any case, he will try to see what is behind him so as not to fall.

Continue the tale of sly eyes: but the eyes always wanted to see what was behind them, they constantly peeped, but they were uncomfortable. They didn’t see everything and once went to the trick and just closed, but the back did not expect this, fell and hit hard, their eyes began to cry ... They suggested that the back should carefully look at the road. If she is tired, then her eyes will do it themselves, only for this you need to turn around. Since then, the eyes have been moving forward, and when it is necessary for the back to go back, the eyes turn the whole body and do its hard work behind the back.

Invite the baby to do what the eyes did: the eyes went forward, turned around and now go back. Fix the name of the directions “forward”, “backward”, ask the child to move forward and backward on command or on a whistle.

Praise the child for the speed, quick wit and correct execution of commands.

1. Color and shape

The purpose of the game: the development of a sense of form and color, speed of reaction, ingenuity, attention.

Necessary materials and visual aids: balls and cubes of various colors, sizes, empty boxes.

Game progress: put cubes and balls in a large box, put it in front of the child. Ask him to put the balls in one box and the cubes in the other. When the kid copes with the task, again ask him to put the balls into boxes according to their colors, then sort the cubes into the same boxes. When the task is completed, ask the child to arrange the toys in boxes according to their shape.

All family members can take part in the game, everyone is given a box with cubes or balls and empty boxes, sorting by color and shape is in a race.

Do not forget to praise the child for the accuracy and accuracy of completing tasks.

Note to parent.The child quite often takes part and enjoys the game in which he is not a winner.

1. Observation (or which toy ran away, etc.)

Purpose of the game: development of observation, logical thinking, assessment of the situation, the ability to express one's point of view, the ability to play in a team.

Necessary materials and visual aids: toys large and small, catchy and inconspicuous, scarf, brooch, various bright jewelry.

The course of the game: with the help of a counter, a leading wizard, a guest (a player who enters and leaves the room), a page (a player who rearranges toys from place to place at the direction of the wizard) are selected.

The guest (the first con let it be one of the adults) goes out the door. At this time, the wizard and the page arrange the toys in a strict order (it is best to take no more than 5 toys) and cover them with a light scarf.

The guest knocks on the door, entering the room, bows to the wizard and asks him to give him a brooch, beads, etc. The wizard agrees, but asks to complete three tasks, if he completes them, he will receive a magical decoration as a reward, if not, then the wizard will turn him into stone. For a few seconds, the handkerchief is removed from the toys, then the toys are covered with it again, the wizard sends the guest out the door.

Task one: the page, at the direction of the wizard, hides one of the toys. Then the guest enters, he must guess which toy has run away.

Task two: the page rearranges the toys in places, the guest must guess which toys are rearranged.

Task three: the page removes or puts on a dress, hat, shoes, etc., the guest must guess what has changed.

If the guest correctly completes all three tasks, he receives the promised decoration and becomes a wizard. With the help of counting points, the roles of page and guest are distributed between the remaining players.

If the guest makes a mistake, then the wizard turns him into stone, the guest must portray some animal (on the instructions of the wizard, so that none of the other players know the task) and freeze for a few seconds. If others guess what kind of animal it is, then the wizard will disenchant the guest. If not, then the guest sings a song or tells a poem in person (shows actions and events with gestures). The game starts from the beginning.

Note to parent.The ability to take risks (not to be afraid to express one's opinion and take actions) is a necessary element in the development of creative abilities.

1. Big small

Goals of the game: development of a sense of size, consolidation of the concepts of "big", "small", development of attention, speed of reaction, fine motor skills of hands, competitive spirit.

Necessary materials and visual aids: toys of different sizes, empty boxes, figures cut out of colored cardboard, a whistle.

Game progress.

1st option: put the toys prepared for the game in a large box, ask the baby to sort them according to the principle “big”, “small”. When the task is completed, praise him for his efforts.

All family members can take part in the game, each of which is given a box with toys and empty boxes, sorting begins with a whistle, the losers sing a song to the winner.

2nd option: prepare in advance figures cut out of colored cardboard, large and small squares, triangles and other figures, put them in a common bright box and give the box to the baby. If he cannot open it, help him with this. Carefully consider together with the child what is in the box. Invite your child to sort the figurines by size into empty boxes. After the task is completed, ask them to sort the figures into different piles according to their shape. Be sure to praise your baby. If he made a mistake in choosing, go back and sort out the mistake, let the child put the figure in the pile in which, in his opinion, it should lie.

All family members can play this game. The kid likes the competitive process, and he begins to play with even more pleasure.

1. detective and keeper

The purpose of the game: the development of observation, logical thinking, assessment of the situation, speed of reaction.

Necessary materials and visual aids: a bright magic box (treasure).

Game progress: using the counter, select the detective (the player who is looking for the treasure), the keeper of the treasure (the player who constantly hides the treasure).

The investigator (best if the first investigator is an adult) leaves the room, and the keeper (best, a child and an adult, as a keeper and assistant) hides the treasure. The detective must find the treasure, while he can ask three questions of his choice, to which the keeper can only answer "yes" or "no". The purpose of the keeper is to confuse the detective. If the detective finds the treasure, then he becomes the keeper, if not, he fulfills the desire of the keeper (sing, dance, portray an animal, etc.). At the end of the game, do not forget to praise the most successful players, note the original questions and attempts to solve the problem. The kid at the end of the game can distribute prizes from a magic box with a treasure.

The sooner you play such games with your child, the sooner the child will independently make decisions and assess the situation, even with the help of an adult (the role of an assistant to the keeper or to the detective) at the first moment. The child's interest in playing under these conditions will not wane for a long time.

1. Games for children 1 - 2 years old using improvised materials

When a child is not very interested in store-bought toys, parental ingenuity comes into play. This is what happened in our family.

We are lucky to become the parents of a little researcher who constantly needs to offer something new, interesting, unusual. Then we began to invent games with improvised materials. It is very exciting, and most importantly economical. As it turned out, many do-it-yourself games are not at all difficult to make. We learned something in developmental classes, the kid suggested something, we remembered something from childhood.

I will say again that the recommended age is indicative. Some children can easily cope with tasks earlier, others a little later. All kids are different. Also, not all developmental activities with a child from a year old may appeal to him, but some will definitely appeal to him. Experiment!

1. Games for the development of fine motor skills of children (from 10 months)

Of course, this type of activity requires parental supervision. Small items here are pebbles for an aquarium (as an alternative - small pebbles), buttons, beads, bells and other sewing accessories. But games with such small objects are very useful for the baby and should be present in his daily life. The safety precautions are simple: they played and removed to a place unknown to the child.

A favorite game can be, for example, picking up pebbles for an aquarium in a non-spill cup. We started playing at the age of 10 months, and by the age of one, the child was already doing well on his own. But, at first, he needs to be shown how this is done, or rather, to direct his hands. That is, take his pen with his hand, grab a pebble and put it in a glass.

The little ones have good muscle memory, and they easily remember hand movements.

Pebbles can be bought at a pet store, building supermarkets, and a glass at an office supply store. Instead of pebbles, you can take buttons, beads, small lids, and so on.

Over time (from about a year and a half), you can teach a child to sort objects by color: in a blue cup, objects are blue, in yellow - yellow.

Also, from beads, buttons, pebbles and a baby pencil case, you get an excellent rattle!

1. Educational game for children "Find a couple" (from a year to a year and a half)

Quite an interesting game, which can also be made from improvised means.

The first variation of the game: cut images of familiar objects into halves and invite the baby to find a pair. What does it look like? Several pictures depicting a ball, a house, a tree, a cat, etc. cut into two parts and offer to the child. The pictures themselves can be printed, drawn, taken as postcards or clippings from magazines. His task is to find two halves and assemble the drawing. For the first time, the child is offered two pictures (4 parts), gradually increasing their number.

The second version of the game provides for the presence of a large number of two identical items.

For example, two blue bottle caps, two cubes of the same color, two mittens, two balls, two identical parts from the designer, two intercom chips, etc. It is desirable to have about 20 items (10 pairs). We put half of the items in a bag, the other half in a cup (or place it on the table). The task of the child is to get the item out of the bag and find a match for him from the cup. Quite an exciting game for children one and a half - two years old. The number of items can be varied and changed. And you don't have to buy anything.

1. Hair bands (from one and a half years)

Moms of boys, have you seen such small children's hair ties in stores? And mothers of girls themselves will understand what it is about. Another game for developing finger motor skills is stringing rubber bands on a marker or felt-tip pen. The main thing is that the diameter of the marker is slightly larger than the rubber itself. The child must make an effort, learn to stretch the rubber band to put it on a pencil or marker.

1. Plasticine games for children (from 1 year old)

Dear readers, I won’t talk about simple modeling from plasticine, this is the first thing that comes to mind. I will offer an alternative: gluing pieces of plasticine onto a sheet of paper.

To do this, you need a piece of plasticine (one or more colors) and paper. The task of the child is to tear off small pieces, roll up balls and, pressing with a finger, stick them to the paper. Plasticine balls can not only be pressed down, but slightly smeared. With such a task, a one-year-old baby will definitely cope. But do not forget to show and guide the child's hands.

When the baby learns such a game, you can diversify it. To do this, give the baby something small (noodles, beans, peas, pieces of foil or colored paper, beads) and show that they can be glued to plasticine. You get good crafts.

Another variation of this game. Laminate the image of a tree without leaves and invite the baby to “glue the leaves”.

Green in summer, yellow in autumn, and snowflakes in winter. In the same way, you can prepare a ladybug without spots, a brush of mountain ash without berries, etc. After the game, the plasticine is easy to assemble, and the stencil remains until the next creative lesson.

1. Educational game for children "Studying forms" (from a year to a year and a half)

At the age of one year, children are already quite good at distinguishing basic geometric shapes. This can be used for playing. Parents need to prepare the same number of cubes (can be of different colors, sizes) and balls (for big or table tennis).

It is necessary to put the balls and cubes in one box and ask the baby to sort them. Balls in one pile (cup, tray, box), cubes in another. During the game, you need to speak with the child the actions and forms of objects, teach generalization.

1. Educational games for children with covers (from one and a half years)

Another handy material is plastic bottle caps. When there are a lot of them (30-40 pieces), you can lay out geometric shapes, lines, snakes, zigzags with them, build towers, sort by colors. Spill-proof lids also come in handy.

1. Dance classes for children (from the year)

There is a lot to be said about music lessons. You can diversify them by dancing with pompoms, ribbons, paper birds. It is enough to take roll sticks and attach a satin ribbon to the pointed end (sold at any fabric and accessories store). Instead of a ribbon, you can take a New Year's "rain" and teach your child to dance with them. Girls will especially like it. Well, and moms, because it's so cute!

1. L dough epka (a game for children from 1 year old)

Unlike plasticine, it is not scary if the child puts the dough in his mouth. Salt dough products can also be dried. Gouache or food coloring will diversify the color of the dough. A mouse, a bird, a hedgehog, a worm will be an excellent gift for a grandfather or grandmother.

1. Drawing for children (from 9 months)

Everything seems to be clear here: pencils, watercolor, gouache. Some children do not need to show anything at all, they themselves will come up with better parents.

And some people need to be interested. In addition to the brush, you can draw with your fingers, cotton swabs, foam rubber sponges, toothbrushes, and make prints. Pencils can be used to trace objects, palms, draw details, etc.

Try drawing a simple pattern on paper with a wax candle, and then have your child paint the drawing with watercolors. It will turn out to be a rather interesting craft. In this technique, you can, for example, make a snowflake for the holiday. Older children can be offeredlive coloring pages , whose heroes can be revived.

1. Educational games for children for coordination (from 1.5 - 2 years old)

When the baby begins to confidently walk and run, you can offer him such a game. You will need: table tennis balls (10 pieces), a spoon, a basin. The balls are scattered on the floor. The task of the child is to pick up the ball with a spoon and bring it to the basin. The task is not easy, it perfectly trains coordination of movements, accuracy and patience. You can also pour water into the basin and launch the "boats". For older children, you can play a game in the form of a competition.

1. Container with cereals (game from 1 year old)

This is probably one of the most favorite children's activities. Many are simply delighted with it, but what good is it! Buckwheat, peas, beans, noodles are poured into a plastic container with a lid ... The child is given spoons, cups, a strainer and enjoy the silence.

Under the container, you can spread a piece of fabric to make it easier to clean up after the game. Over time, you can teach your child to hide the toy in the croup, and then look for it. Also offer acorns, cones, walnuts. The most important thing after the game is to close and remove the container in an inaccessible place.

1. Stringing beads (from the year)

Another type of game with small objects. The essence of the game is clear from the title. It is necessary to prepare beads and wire. Everyone can play!

The most important thing in classes is to praise the baby for successes and not pay attention to failures. From the first time, many games will not be clear to the child, but over time, he will definitely learn everything! Another plus of such developmental activities is that they provide for the direct interaction of the child with an adult. And this means you can spend time together, fun and useful.

Motor activity is very important for the physical development of the child. The irrefutable expression “Movement is life” is well known. Soviet scientist I.A. Arshavsky repeatedly proved the connection between a high level of activity and good health, emphasized the special importance of motor activity in the development of the whole organism.

And you can also ask dad to file thin branches in the forest (about 1-2 cm in diameter, 20-30 cm long), lay them in a row and walk along them like a bridge, you can tie them with a thin strong rope so that you can easily fold and remove .

Rolling toys. It is worth mentioning wheelchair toys here. They are now sold in all sorts of shapes and colors, some children are happy to learn to walk by rolling such toys. Maybe this method will suit your baby?

Outdoor games for children at the age of 1, training running

Who is faster? Invite the baby to race to get to the toy, to the dad, to the kitchen. It's easy to play this game all day long. Who will run to the sandbox faster?

Catch me. Another game that can be played all day long. Invite the child to catch you and run away, then you catch the baby, and he runs away.

We ran to visit. Prepare two toys, for example, a bear and a dog, place them in different corners of the room or in different places on the street and offer to run to visit the bear, and then visit the dog, and even race. Turn on moving music, it will be more fun.

We tease the beast. This is a whole block of games, reminiscent of the game "at the bear in the forest", familiar to you from childhood. The main idea is this: the baby sneaks up to the sleeping animal, the animal wakes up, and you need to run away from it. Pairs for this game: a bear and rabbits, a frog and mosquitoes, bees and cubs, a wolf and kids, a fox and rabbits. It's more fun if a big company is playing.

Outdoor games for children at the age of 1, training jumps

We jump on numbers and letters. Draw numbers or letters on the pavement, and let the child jump over them, at the same time teach the count and words. Or lay out and fix with adhesive tape on the floor pictures of animals, and to which animal the child jumped, he calls.

By the islands. Draw with chalk or tape paper islands on the floor and say that you can only jump on land. On the islands, you can put a small treat, or you can lay out the puzzle pieces and then assemble the picture, it is convenient to use cubes with a picture for this.

Through puddles, over clouds, over bumps. One day, invite the child to jump through the puddles to the bath, on the other, through the clouds to get to the kitchen for dinner. Jumping over bumps in the swamp, you can look for a treasure that you hide under the last bump.

Get some candy. Hold the candy slightly above your baby's height and let him make several attempts to get the candy before he jumps. If you don't eat candy, replace it with a toy or fruit.

Jumping rope or objects. An easier option for yearlings is to jump over a rope or ribbon, stick, etc. lying on the floor. Make the game more difficult by raising the rope, ribbon, etc. higher.

Let's have fun jumping. You can just jump to fun music with your child. With seeming simplicity, this game can bring you a lot of positive emotions.

Entertaining outdoor games for children in 1 year

Show the animal. Think of an animal and show it to the baby with the help of pantomime, make a sound that is characteristic of this animal. Let the kid guess. And then invite him to guess the beast for you. Or just think together how you can show a sparrow, a horse, a bull, a dog, a cat, bees, a bear, a hare, etc.

You can imitate different mechanisms - cars, trucks, steam locomotives, airplanes.

Do you want to play with your child easily and with pleasure?

Hide and Seek. Everyone's favorite game! Hide yourself, then look for your child. Yearlings hide their faces under a scarf or cover them with their palms and think that they hid well. Walk around a little, saying out loud how difficult it is for you to search, and that you can’t see where your child is hiding at all, and then “find” the baby and laugh together.

Sun bunnies. Take a mirror and let the sunbeams, and let the baby catch them. Then change places.

Physical education minutes

And a few more ideas from enthusiastic mothers who play with their babies according to scenarios "Fairytale Kaleidoscope". As part of one of the creative tasks for the Three Little Pigs, they spent physical education minutes with their crumbs. Such simple and funny exercises to songs well known to mom will be a good help in organizing the physical activity of kids.

Physical education minute to the song of the three little pigs

I tried to come up with a warm-up for the child after sleeping to the song of three little pigs, so I left the melody, but replaced the words with my own, except for the chorus. It turned out like this:

It's time for us to wake up
We've got to go, we've got to go (let's stretch)
Waiting for Naf-Naf for a long time in the morning,
We are with you in the morning (clap our hands).

We will call Nif-Nif,
Let's call, call, (waving with one hand)
And we'll call Naf-Naf,
Let's call, call (waving with the other hand).

We are not afraid of the gray wolf,
Gray wolf, gray wolf.
Where do you go, stupid wolf,
Old wolf, dire wolf?

Let's stretch our arms together
Knead, knead, (squeeze-unclench fists, raise-lower elbows, or any other hand movements)
Let's stretch the legs together (we walk, raising our legs high)
And we will build a house (raise our hands high up and spread apart - we show how big the house is).

To the chorus we crawl on all fours:
We are not afraid of the gray wolf,
Gray wolf, gray wolf.
Where do you go, stupid wolf,
Old wolf, dire wolf?

The daughter rushes around with laughter when her mother gets on all fours, depicting a wolf. Therefore, the warm-up smoothly flowed into catch-up hide and seek from the mother wolf.

Fizkultminutka on a poem about pigs

For physical education, they took a poem about pigs:

This pig dances briskly, (jump)
This one is waving its tail at us, (we wag our booty)
This one washes a piglet, (we wash)
This one wears a wig, (put hands on head)
This one eats a gingerbread, (we show with our hands how we eat)
And her name is Baby (hands to the sides).

At the age of about 1 year 3 months, the most interesting and most important for a baby are still object games, i.e. games during which the child twists and turns toys and other objects, feels them, gets acquainted with their purpose. Repeating many times the same actions with objects, the baby learns their physical properties, accumulates his own experience of interacting with them, and, of course, improves motor skills, hones skills and abilities.

I have previously published several articles with a selection of our games for developing sensorimotor skills. In today's article - a little more difficult classes, approximately designed for babies older than 1 year 3 months. The breakdown by age, of course, is somewhat arbitrary and is done only to make it easier to navigate in a variety of games. So don't wait until a certain age, but use the activities in this article when you feel that the child is ready.

I want to note that many of the games from the articles "Educational games for children 1 year old" are still relevant even after the age of 1 year 3 months, in particular,.

Well, now I present to your attention another 10 options for educational games:

1. Sort items

At this age, you can begin to offer your baby the first "analytical" games. Those. the baby will need not only to touch, press, open something, but also think it over carefully before doing it.

So, invite your child to sort with you any items into two boxes. For example, divide the cubes into red and green. You can sort not only by color, but also by size (large and small) or shape (circles and squares). At the first stage, use only one criterion for sorting! Besides, try to ensure that at first, in all other properties, the objects are completely identical . Those. for example, if you are sorting the cubes into red and green, it is desirable that they be the same size. This will make it easier for the child to understand.

What else can be sorted? In-shell nuts are good for sorting: put large (walnut) in one bowl, small (forest, or cedar) in another. In the kitchen, you can sort sweets into 2 varieties, separate beans from pasta, etc. Yes, in principle, you can sort almost any small things that come to hand.

You can also make special cards for sorting . On some cards, draw all large objects, on others - exactly the same objects, only small ones. Alternatively, draw circles on some cards and squares on others. In our games, we used ready-made sets from the "School of the Seven Dwarfs" to sort by bloom and by size. The sets, frankly, are nothing special, but if you are too lazy to make cards yourself, then they will do.

To begin with, sort the objects into only two groups, when the child catches the essence of the game, you can add more varieties. Those. increase the number of colors, shapes or sizes involved in the game.

To maintain interest in the game, you can not only sort objects into faceless boxes, but distribute the boxes to your favorite toys and announce to the baby that, for example, the Cheburashka loves only circles, but the bear loves only triangles, so we need to help them arrange everything correctly.

A separate layer are games on sorting by color . In the article "" you can find several options for such sorting. For example, here is such a sorter from a tea box and multi-colored mosaic details. No worse are sorters with designer details, multi-colored paper clips, buttons, etc.

Of the non-homemade options, the best color sorter, in my opinion, is magic chest of drawers. Here, in addition to the fact that the child learns to distinguish colors, he also trains fine motor skills - he learns to direct small details exactly into the hole, and also to put them in insert frames. The task is not easy and very exciting. The child can sit for an hour

If colored sorters are already tired, then you can take a closer look at the chests of drawers " Forms" or " Animals"

And finally, if you want to include more colors and shades in your game and at the same time are a lover of beautiful and eco-friendly Montessori toys, then sorters in the form colored gnomes, nesting dolls and wooden bowls.

2. Play with water

According to my observations, games with water transfusion become interesting to a child even earlier than at 1 year 3 months. The first actions that need to be mastered are pouring from a glass into a glass, filling one large container with another smaller dish (for example, we scoop water into a bucket with small glasses). After these actions are mastered, you can learn pour water into glasses from a small teapot or jug . We studied on a teapot 20 centimeters high.

During such a game, the main thing to teach the baby is to hold the kettle correctly. Explain to the child that the kettle should be held with the right hand (if he is right-handed) by the handle, and with the left hand a little hold on the other side, while lifting the kettle so that it does not touch the edge of the cup, otherwise the glass will fall. Of course, at first you will need to keep the kettle with the baby, because. this task is not easy.

The pouring of water from the kettle into glasses, of course, can be played in an interesting way. Seat the toys and tell the baby that he is now facing a responsible task - to pour tea for all the toy guests.

3. Sift cereals through a strainer

Another educational game invented by the famous. This game is aimed at introducing the child to the sieve and its interesting property - to separate large from small. For class, you must first mix semolina and beans in a bowl. And then, together with the baby, you need to use a strainer with a handle to separate the beans from the semolina. Put the sifted beans in a separate bowl.

During the game, explain to the baby that the beans remained in the strainer, because they are large and cannot pass through the holes in the sieve, and the semolina is small, so it is sieved through the holes.

4. Collect puzzles from 2 parts

Show your child how you can get a single picture from two parts. For this fit the most simple puzzles or split pictures (labyrinth, My shop, KoroBoom). At this age, Taisiya and I played like this: I took one half of the animal and began to substitute different options for the second halves to it, Taisiya showed which half, in her opinion, was suitable and which was not. My daughter really liked this game, but she did not want to collect pictures on her own at this age, the real "" we started at 1.5 years old.

5. Cut vegetables and fruits

This game will require set of cut vegetables or fruits (Ozone, KoroBoom, My shop) . Typically, such vegetables consist of two halves (and sometimes more pieces) that adhere to each other with Velcro. Also included is a wooden knife.

The game is very useful, because in it the child learns to coordinate his actions. It is not as easy as it might seem - to guide the knife exactly along the cut, and even holding the vegetable with the other hand. And it is necessary to teach the baby to hold the vegetable with the second hand, this is how we develop in him the ability to do different actions simultaneously with both hands. And the child learns independence, and the more persistent he is, the faster he will amaze you with his “culinary” skills.

6. Collect the pyramid, choosing the right size ring

Because at this age, the baby is already quite good at distinguishing small objects from large ones, you can slowly teach him to assemble a pyramid, stringing the rings in the correct order. To do this, you need to explain to the child that when collecting a pyramid, you always need to focus on the largest ring. We found the largest ring - put it on the rod, from the remaining ones we are again looking for the largest. At first, it is better to use small pyramids of 3-4 rings, or if the pyramid is large, you need to limit each choice of the baby to 3-4 rings.

Similarly, you can learn to assemble a pyramid from. In addition, the caps can also be assembled in reverse order - starting with the smallest one, and then sequentially cover with larger caps, as if hiding the previous ones.

Taisia ​​and I regularly practiced building pyramids and towers from caps. At 1 year 4 months, she was already building them (from 6-7 rings or caps) practically on her own, with a minimum amount of my help. I offered my daughter a choice of 3-4 parts, from which she chose the right ones. But most of all, Taisiya loved to consistently hide the caps one under the other.

7. Assemble a nesting doll, picking up a half on your own

The essence of the lesson is similar to the previous one - the game teaches the child to navigate in size and select the appropriate ones. Naturally, while the baby will not fully collect nesting doll (My shop, labyrinth, KoroBoom) without your help, at this stage he needs to constantly prompt, explain and clearly demonstrate why one half is suitable and the other is not.

When we were just learning how to assemble a nesting doll, we played like this: I put all the “heads” in one direction, and the “legs” in the other. Then she took one “head” and offered several “legs” to choose from. The understanding that not every “legs” will fit one specific “head” came to Taisiya somewhere in 1 year 2 months, since then we began to slowly but surely learn the art of sizing.

8. Collect mushrooms / berries

Another interesting game was born to us by itself, when counting set "Mushrooms" (labyrinth, My shop, KoroBoom). The essence of the game is as follows: the baby needs to find the mushrooms pre-arranged around the room (instead of them there may be other identical objects, for example, berries, small balls, leaves).

Mushrooms need to be arranged in advance while the child is not in the room. Some mushrooms must be placed in the most prominent places so that the baby feels interest in the game and understands that everything is working out for him. And some need to be placed in such a way that you have to look a little, for example, behind the leg of a chair, under a typewriter, etc. But don't overdo it! The game develops attentiveness and observation well.

9. Dress up dolls by putting on clothes

So far, the baby is unlikely to cope with dressing ordinary dolls, but on flat dolls, he will already be able to fully realize his design endeavors. On sale you can find various sets (Ozone, My shop, KoroBoom) (usually for bathroom play), consisting of dolls and a rich assortment of clothes and accessories for all occasions - wear whatever your heart desires.

Taisiya fell in love with this game very much just somewhere at the age of 1 year 3 months. And to this day, we periodically return to it, bathing in the bathroom. There are two characters to dress up in our set, so there is room for story games as well.

10. Study opposites on real objects

The older the baby becomes, the more things begin to interest him, the more concepts he is able to understand. You can also study various concepts from books, but the baby will learn everything much better if he is shown the essence of certain things in reality. For example, it is very interesting to study opposites. What exactly to study?

Take two plastic bottles and fill them with water, pour a little into one and a lot of water into the other. Let the child pick up each of the bottles, explain that one of them is heavy and the other is light.

Take two plastic bottles, pour hot water into one of them, and cold water into the other. Feeling the bottles, the baby will learn these concepts well.

Lie down with the baby first on the pillow, and then on the floor. Explain that it is pleasant and comfortable to lie on the pillow - it is soft, but not so on the floor - it is hard!

You can explain the concept of "empty" and "full" to the baby using the example of an empty and full glass, or a bucket of sand.

Well, and stuff like that, you can come up with a lot of similar examples in life!

11. Play with simple mosaics

And another 1 year 3 months is a great time to start joining mosaics! But only, of course, to the simplest, baby ones. The main task of the mosaic at this age is not to teach the child to create pictures and not to develop imagination, but to teach the child to work with small details and learn colors.

It is not at all necessary to immediately insert the details “correctly” when playing. As a rule, at first, children are too passionate about the process to pay attention to the color of the details. First, let the child simply insert the parts into the holes, training unyielding fingers. Well, you pronounce the names of those details that the child takes, so that this information is slowly deposited in his head. And only when the baby is comfortable with the game and you understand that your information “did not go past your ears”, offer to insert the blue part into the blue hole, and the red one into the red one.

Here are examples of very good, baby mosaics. From wooden (and quite budget) - this is " butterflies"(as in the photo just above)," cars". From plastic - " funny buttons".

That's all. If everything from this article has already been mastered, go to the next collection -!
