Many parents try to load a six or seven year old with school assignments or school preparation. But it is important to understand that at this age the child must have time for games, rest, independent study and active games. Dose learning and boring activities so that your child does not lose interest in learning and enjoy his childhood. Indeed, at this age it is still a baby, for whom the most important and useful thing is games.

When a child is 6-7 years old, he wants to be independent and independent. At this age, initiative is formed. If something does not work out for him, then this greatly upsets him and he will try to do it until it comes out. Parents, when deciding what to do with a child of 6-7 years old at home, should know that if they do not give him sufficient independence and do not develop initiative, then this will create difficulties in the future. A person will be easily controllable, obedient and subject to external manipulations, even to the detriment of their interests. Parents should help their child learn to set goals, choose goals and not be afraid to express their desires. A child's activities at this age should be varied and each "case" should not last more than 10-15 minutes.

Outdoor games

Physical development and dexterity are very important for a child of any age. The number of games should include those that contribute to this. What can interest a child at this age? He should be bored and fun.

1. Walking walkers. There is a ready-made game on sale, but you can draw the playing field yourself. The winner is the one who reaches the finish line first, having overcome all obstacles on the way from the start. The number of moves for each player is determined using a die.
2. Dancing. A dance competition organized among family members will bring joy not only to children, but also to adults. You can include music of any genre, as long as everyone likes it.
3. Games with ball. If you have a large room where nothing can be damaged while playing, you can use a ball. For example, 2 stools are placed at the end of the room. 2 participants simultaneously compete in speed with a ball sandwiched between their legs. Task: you need to jump to the stool and return. Whoever returns first will be the winner.
4. Ball and ring. One participant makes a ring in front of him with his hands. The opponent seeks to throw the ball into this "ring". Each player has 10 attempts. The winner is the one who hits the most number of times during this time.

Reading

At this age, most children can read. The child needs to be taught to love books. This will help him to solve spiritual and intellectual problems throughout his life and to develop in different directions all the time. In order not to cause rejection, you must definitely give the opportunity to choose yourself, showing all the variety. Stories, poems, fairy tales, bright pictures from books and magazines will not only enrich his vocabulary, but will also become one of his favorite pastimes. The child should be encouraged to learn poetry to his liking. The main thing is to observe the measure that suits your child in everything.

Draw and sculpt

Drawing and sculpting contribute to the development of fine motor skills and creative thinking, as well as other necessary skills. An added bonus: kids love doing it! The main thing is that the parents do not worry themselves and do not bother the children with the poor combination of the ideal order, clean hands and clothes of children with these activities. Prepare everything in advance so as not to spoil the fun of the children and your nerves. The simplest thing is to provide space and materials and let him draw and sculpt whatever he wants. You can offer direction to these activities.

Painting:

1. Divide a piece of paper into lines in a chaotic manner. You should get different geometric figures... Invite your child to color each of the shapes. Identical colors should not touch each other.
2. Draw a dog, cat, etc., but not completely, but without some parts, for example, without a tail, ears. The child must complete the missing elements. This can be done with absolutely any thing, for which your and your child's imagination is enough. Additionally, a competition can be added to this game: who will come up with the most interesting subject for the image in this game.
3. Peel raw potatoes with your child, make several pieces in the shape of a rectangle, and on them a convex shape. Dip the shape in paint and make prints on paper. Stars, hearts, flowers, geometric shapes and whatever your imagination dictates can be created using this technique.
4. Find a picture in a magazine or book and have your child redraw it. You can invite him to take it as a basis and add whatever he sees fit.
5. Suggest to draw a picture on a given topic, for example "Our family", "Your dream", etc.

• Give the child a piece of paper, let him draw a picture with a simple pencil (or draw it yourself). Plasticine of different colors is applied in layers to the drawing to get a three-dimensional picture.
• You can give the task to sculpt a figurine of a person, animal, plant or a whole courtyard with a house, residents, a vegetable garden and a garden.

Purchased toys for learning and development

When buying toys for a child, parents should consider both their interests and the desire to learn as much as possible about the nature of things, adventure and travel. The book market offers a huge selection of detailed, understandable and vivid encyclopedias that can satisfy the curiosity of children and teach them a lot.

A set of a young chemist may interest your child, and the board game "Monopoly" will help to solve math problems and prepare for existence in a market economy. You should know the inclinations of your offspring at this stage of his development and satisfy his needs for knowledge in full, including with the help of games, including purchased ones.

If you are not sure if you can satisfy your child's needs, invite him to go to the store and offer to choose one toy yourself.

The main thing is not to overwhelm the child with an endless number of toys - this will negatively affect his ability to concentrate and on creativity. It is better to have a limited number of toys, and when buying a new one, get rid of the old one (the child chooses it). This will keep the room in order, and the child will learn to prioritize and make decisions.

Home theater

A child of 6-7 years old has been to a children's theater or a puppet theater at least several times. If you decide what to do with a child of 6-7 years old, you can offer him to create a theater at home and put on a small play or a scene on a topic that is interesting to him. You can "designate" him as a director small theater and come up with the main characters, scenery, costumes. Children are interested in creating everything with their own hands and can be offered to make dolls out of paper, plasticine, fabrics or using the papier-mâché technique. A wide field for creativity lies in the creation of "theater".
This activity can capture both children and adults. Here's an example of how to make a papier-mâché theater doll together.

1. Take any paper or newspaper. Pour medium-sized pieces into a suitable container.
2. Mix paper with PVA glue to a plasticine consistency.
3. Line the board with plastic or place it in a bag. You need to put on it plastic bottle volume of 0.5 liters. A thin layer of moistened paper is applied to the bottle. Thus, the body of the "hero" of the home setting is obtained.
4. A head from a rubber toy or made by yourself using a thick layer of paper is placed on the neck of the bottle.
5. When this "construction" is dry, it is painted with acrylic or gouache paints.

The origami technique can be used to make theater “artists”. Any shapes can be folded with it.

You can make characters (people and animals) out of paper using a very simple method. Make the body out of paper, folding it in a cone. The head is made of appliqué or design glued onto an oval made of hard paper or cardboard.

The decoration of the theater can be a drawing or applique using colored paper. You can combine these methods.

If you need to come up with activities for a child at six or seven years old, then this is the best age to start introducing him to the laws of chemistry and physics.

A child in your presence and with your help can conduct simple experiments and get basic knowledge, as well as feel pleasure from the process.

1. Do-it-yourself "rainbow" We need several identical glasses. A little warm water is poured into each of them. Put 1 tablespoon of sugar in one glass, 2 in the second, 3 in the third, etc. You do not need to add sugar to the last glass, there should be a little water in it. In glasses where there is sugar, you need to drop a little dyes of different colors. Each glass contains 1 color. Stir the dye with the sugar. With a large syringe without a needle, you need to draw a mixture of water, sugar and dye from the first glass, then from the second, etc. and slowly squeeze into the last glass (no sugar) in turn. As a result of this work, the child will get a rainbow in a glass.
2. Volcanic lava. Half a glass of tomato juice and sunflower oil are poured into a tall glass. Then 2 effervescent aspirin tablets are placed in it. The child will be delighted to see how large bubbles will be obtained from tomato juice and rise upward, imitating a volcanic eruption.
3. Orange peel versus a balloon... Several balloons are inflated. The orange is peeled from which juice is squeezed out over the ball. The balls burst from this, as the orange peel contains limonene, which dissolves the rubber.
4. Balloon and plastic bottle. You need to pour a glass of vinegar into a plastic bottle, and 3 teaspoons of soda are poured into a ball. When the balloon is put on the neck of the bottle and the soda in it is poured into the vinegar, the balloon inflates itself.
5. Secret letter. A few drops of lemon juice and the same amount of water are mixed on a plate. With this mixture, using a cotton swab or toothpick, you need to write something on the sheet. After the mixture is dry, gently bring the sheet to the fire of a gas burner or sweep the flame of a candle. The letters will become visible, they will appear brown and it will be possible to read the contents of the "letter".
6. Constructor... Purchased constructors, as a rule, are supplemented with pictures, according to which the child can assemble various structures, things, figures of people and animals. You can complicate the task: together with the child, develop a city plan on paper and build it from parts of several constructors. The city (or district) plan can be given to the child to draw up independently, giving direction. It should have a school, house, store, adults, children, animals, etc. This activity will help develop the imagination, the ability to improve and create.

Attention! When performing experiments, care is required in handling vinegar, fire and bursting balls !!! These experiments should be carried out by children under the supervision and participation of adults!

Play together

Entertain six year old child it is possible with the help of joint games with adults or among themselves. You can buy board games in the store, or you can get by with the materials at hand with the help of ingenuity.

• Arrange a speed competition in composing a puzzle, solving a rebus, a puzzle, guessing words from a description.
• You can tell children to arrange a concert, a theatrical performance, a fashion show. They can invent themselves and show them to adults, or it can be a joint activity. Adults should provide them with a place, some of the wardrobe items, and maybe furniture for the creative process. It is interesting and exciting for children for several hours, or even days.
• You can invite the children to play a game that combines drawing and imagination. Children draw a picture on any topic, then each one gives his drawing to another. The winner is the one who will be the most interesting story by "product visual arts"Another. Or the one who draws the most beautiful picture.

For the development of intelligence

Seven-year-olds can be occupied with games to develop memory, intellectual abilities and speech. Children can play them themselves or together with adults. Here are some examples:

1. One participant thinks a word, the other guesses it. Questions can be asked, but they should be designed so that only a positive or negative answer can be given.
2. Players match rhymes to a given word. The winner is the one who picks up the most words or comes up with a rhyme the fastest.
3. In a room or apartment, you need to find objects with numbers, for example, watches, labels, books.
4. Many other words need to be composed of a large word. The participant with the most such words wins.

Do not count the number of games and activities that will help adults to keep a child of 6-7 years old at home. If you have a weekend or holidays ahead, it is better to think in advance how to spend them with the children for the benefit of them and to strengthen relationships in the family. Joint classes or at least some participation, will bring joy to the children and will not cause a feeling of abandonment if the parents withdraw themselves by simply placing the child in front of a TV screen or gadget. Technique will never replace a person with live communication, especially an adult with a child. This is the main thing that parents need to remember when planning their leisure time!

The development of a child at 6 years old is closely related to his intensive growth, socialization, improvement of intellectual skills. Children at this age are extremely mobile, their body stretches upward, proportions change. They have already formed as individuals, have their own views on the world around them. The difference in behavior between boys and girls is becoming more and more noticeable. In their cognitive activity, kids are tireless. The task of parents is to direct their abilities in the right direction and prepare children for school.

Physical development of a child at 6 years old

In order to assess the physical development of six-year-olds, various tests are used. At this age, the difference between the structure of the body of a boy and a girl is clearly visible. The following factors affect the height and weight of children:

• Nutrition
• Heredity
• Hormonal characteristics of the body
• Physical exercise
• Sleep duration
• The psychological situation in the family
• Baby gender
• Climatic and geographic living conditions
• Ethnicity.

Growth rates at 6 years old accelerate, children grow by about 5-6 cm, their weight increases by 2.5-3 kg. They grow unevenly throughout the year, faster in spring and summer, slower in autumn and winter. This trend continues until puberty. Boys can stretch slightly faster than girls. The difference is noticeable physical development and in the activity of children. Boys are more mobile like sports games. Girls are characterized by perseverance, better development of fine motor skills, they are more creative.

Six-year-olds have great control over their bodies. They run and jump fast, even on tiptoe and tiptoe. They ride a two-wheeled bicycle, easily overcome obstacles, climb hills and climb a gymnastic wall. Able to perform complex exercises, show persistence in mastering new tricks.

It's time to send your baby to a sports section or dance. This will strengthen his health before school, help him achieve physical perfection. Children willingly attend circles, where they can move freely, communicate with their peers. After all, now they are beginning to move away from their parents and actively join society.

Fine motor skills of the hands in the sixth year of life are significantly improved. The preschooler puts together complex constructors, puzzles, draws well. He can create interesting crafts made of paper, fabric and other materials. Sculpts figures from plasticine that are as close as possible in shape and outward appearance to the real ones. Knows how to put beads on a string, tries to sew on buttons.

The mental development of children at 6 years old

Six-year-olds continue to be interested in everything, ask many questions, actively study the world around them. Their memory improves, they retain the information received longer. A child's vocabulary at the age of 6 is 3-3.5 thousand. They pronounce all letters and sounds, speak competently, correctly coordinate all parts of speech with each other. Know how to perform simple sound analysis of words. Most often, sentences contain concepts denoting objects and actions. Six-year-olds use adjectives less frequently.

A child's speech development at the age of 6 allows him to communicate freely with adults. He can lead meaningful dialogues and long monologues. Retells the content of the book read, describes the pictures. So far, children pay attention to the main details, leaving out the minor ones. But over time, they will be able to make more lengthy descriptions of drawings and retellings of the stories they have read. Preschoolers also talk a lot among themselves, which helps them build more complex social ties. They fantasize together, invent new games, improve the rules of old ones. You should develop an interest in communication in the child, read more to him, even when he himself knows how to do it. After all, reading by syllables does not yet allow the kid to fully grasp the content of the book.

In the sixth year of life, children have a well-developed memory. It is longer than that of five-year plans. Children can tell a rhyme or the content of a fairy tale even after 2-3 weeks. Learning is much easier than it used to be. The main type of thinking at this age is visual-figurative and visual-effective. The verbal-logical type is just beginning to develop. Therefore, classes should be conducted using specific visual materials. They help in improving logical thinking. The development of creative and mathematical abilities in children is different. By the age of six, certain inclinations are already more clearly manifested. The task of the parents is to recognize in the child his talents and direct them in the right direction.

Emotional and social development of the child

The sixth year of life is an important period for children in terms of psychological development. They are already fully aware of themselves as independent individuals, clearly understand their gender. Feelings and thoughts can be expressed in words. Children want to feel like adults, so you need to communicate with them in the same way. It is important to develop a sense of responsibility in the child, to give him specific assignments, demanding their correct implementation. In this case, one should not forget about creative development personality. Leave the baby the right to choose, do not drive him into a strict framework. Otherwise, by the age of eight, his imagination, personal initiative will fade away. He will grow up to be an excellent performer, but will not be able to independently generate ideas, seek solutions to a difficult problem.

Sensorimotor and emotional development children always run in parallel. They perceive the world by touch, using visual and auditory analyzers. All information at the age of six is ​​perceived with an emotional connotation. Therefore, it is so important to awaken in the child an interest in certain activities. Without this, they will not memorize new material, they will develop a persistent aversion to learning. Praise children more often, even for minimal accomplishments. Set real plans for them, give only those tasks that they are able to complete to the end.

The sixth year is the time of active construction social connections between children. They have friends with whom they willingly communicate, and enemies. Girls and boys create their own separate companies, which are often hostile or dismissive towards each other. There are clear gender differences in the characteristics of the game, children begin to realize their role in society. At 6 years old, the baby is no longer so attached to his parents. He can go about his business for a long time, does not require constant attention, as before. Shyness disappears in children, many show artistic abilities. Can in public, even before strangers, tell poetry, dance, sing songs.

Child's readiness for school

In a few months, the baby will go to school. How can a parent know if he is ready for school? What should a preschooler at the age of 6 know and be able to do? Personal readiness manifests itself in a child in different ways. Children become more responsible, they are able to carry out difficult assignments, they show more attentiveness in the classroom. Preschoolers want to take a new social level among their peers and slightly younger children. After all, going to first class makes them special, more mature and important.

One of the hallmarks of school readiness is self-esteem. It should not be either understated or overstated. For normal development self-esteem in a child, parents should praise him for a job done right, gently point out mistakes, ask them to correct them on their own. Equally important is the ability to cool mutual language with other children and adults, build relationships with new people. A six-year-old must be able to overcome difficulties, be persistent in performing difficult tasks, and be able to maintain order in the workplace. Here are the basic skills a preschooler should have at the age of 6:

• Generalize objects according to their main features, exclude unnecessary ones from logical series
• Distinguish between basic geometric shapes (circle, square, rectangle, ball, cube, pyramid)
• Distinguish and name up to a dozen colors
• Know the alphabet (preferably)
• Draw multiple block letters
• Color in coloring pages without going beyond the contours
• Be able to briefly retell the content of a fairy tale
• Describe the picture in words
• Distinguish between directions - up and down, right and left, know where the right and left arm (leg) are
• Know the days of the week, the seasons, be able to tell the time by the clock
• Know your name, surname, home address.

Before school, all children should be consulted by a psychologist. There are special tests with the help of which a specialist determines how ready a preschooler is for learning, diagnoses signs of developmental delay. If his readiness is low, the psychologist can advise additional classes to help improve skills. Peculiarities age development each baby is different. Therefore, do not worry, you still have a year ahead of you. If the child's developmental norm is not violated, he will have time to catch up with his peers.

How to prepare your child for school correctly

Children in the sixth year of life continue to perceive the world through play. Therefore, training should take place exactly in this form. Lessons should be kept interesting, but short. The concentration of attention in children is still weak, therefore they cannot study for a long time. Activities should alternate with rest. Here are the basic skills to develop in your child before school.

• Grammatically correct speech
• Mathematics and counting
• Musical and creative perception of the world
• Development of logic

Parents should talk to the child correctly, build simple, literate sentences. His speech largely depends on what they hear from mom and dad. The mistakes of the baby need to be corrected, it should be done softly and unobtrusively, otherwise complexes may develop in the child. Books, educational films are well developed. Ask the preschooler to retell the content of the story he read or the video he watched. Try to ask him questions, find out what he liked in this or that fairy tale, where the action took place in the film, how he would act in the place of the main character. Play with him role-playing games, stimulate communication with other children. Answer the many questions "why?", "What?", "Where?" and "how?" that arise in the baby.

Seven-year-olds are very addicting natures, capable of independently inventing entertainment and new options for their leisure. They literally draw inspiration from the air, but they also have periods of recession, when all the classes are bored, and they want something new. Then mom and dad will come to the rescue with their time-tested ideas of fun children's games.

What to do with a 7 year old child

Let's make a reservation right away that we will not consider the option of watching TV. This is an overly trivial and simple option that always works, but has certain negative consequences.
Classes for kids over 7 years old should harmoniously combine mobile and calm activities. Considering that 5-6 days a week the child is in a sitting position for 4-5 hours, it is worth considering active games... It will be great if the surge of energy takes place on the street or sports ground- you can run around, shout and do literally whatever your heart desires. Draw a map and take the kids on a treasure hike or teach an orienteering lesson. In winter and summer, use seasonal outdoor activities.
Quiet games are no less. This includes leisure activities such as reading together, board games, quiet walks, creative activities, and role-playing games. To a greater extent, these are options for spending time at home, which we will continue to talk about below.

What to do with a child at 7 years old at home

When the question arises of what to do with a child of seven at home, do not rush to put him behind a blue screen. Think about what games will help him not only relax after a busy school day but will also contribute intellectual development...

Whoever ran out of stock first loses. More than two people can participate.
• Another version of this game is oral. You name any words (except for the exceptions listed above), each participant, in turn, pronounces another word, starting with the last letter of the previous one. This is an invaluable way to expand and deepen a child's vocabulary, train his memory and attention.
• Cities

Surprises hidden around the apartment (for example, sweets) or notes indicating where you need to get out further and what prize awaits at the end can serve as a "lure".

As you can see, leisure at home can be varied and exciting. We wish you fun and happy games!

Bubbles can be blown almost endlessly. At least until the solution runs out. For this to happen soon, make a large supply: 3.5 liters of water, a glass of dishwashing liquid, a tablespoon of glycerin. The barrel of solution is ready!

22. Painting without spots

If you pour a little shower gel mixed with dyes into a durable hermetically sealed bag, your child will be able to draw futuristic pictures with their fingers and not get dirty!

23. Car wash with your own hands

Children can play for hours in the bathroom with a real car wash, which can be made from a five-liter plastic canister, dishwashing sponges and moisture-resistant adhesive tape.

From the canister, you need to cut out the sink body with entry and exit. Cut the dishwashing sponges into thin, long sticks and glue them vertically to the ceiling of the sink. Use permanent markers to color in the structure. Place shaving foam in empty yogurt jars, take old toothbrushes and toy cars. Imagination will do the rest.

24. Science experiment with balloons

Show your child a chemical experiment in the kitchen. Place a spoonful of baking soda in a balloon and vinegar in an empty plastic bottle. Place the balloon on the neck of the bottle and secure tightly. Gradually pour the baking soda from the ball into the bottle. The neutralization reaction will release a large amount of carbon dioxide, which will inflate the balloon.

25. Frozen Dinosaur Egg

If your child loves dinosaurs, show him how ancient dinosaurs hatched from eggs. Put a dinosaur figurine in a balloon and fill it with tinted water, then send the balloon to the freezer. When the water freezes, call the young paleontologists. Remove the "shell" of the ball from the eggs, examine the dinosaur in the ice. You can get the toy out with a small hammer (only you need to do this with swimming goggles so that small pieces of ice do not damage your eyes).

26. Banana Ice Cream

You can make popsicles with just one ingredient. Take bananas (preferably a little overripe), peel and cut into thin slices. Place in the freezer. After a couple of hours, remove the frozen bananas and stir in a blender until the mixture resembles thick sour cream. Ice cream can be eaten straight away or placed in tins and re-frozen. Older kids can do the cooking themselves!

Six years is a very interesting age, both for the child and for the parents, because behind the unintelligible pranks and educational toys, and ahead of the school and the opportunity to learn new things. That is why parents should choose special occupations for children of this age in case you have to entertain them with something at home.

Active games

Almost any child at the age of 6 is distinguished by enviable mobility and curiosity for adults, which is why it will not be difficult to find something to do for a child. If weather conditions permit, you can send to the playground and provide the child with the opportunity to ride a swing and talk with peers for several hours, which will help the child to throw out the accumulated energy and work up an appetite.

It is hardly possible to recreate the atmosphere of a playground in the house, so you will have to resort to additional equipment or turn on ingenuity. In most stores, you can now buy games such as darts, home boxing or basketball or tennis, but it will not be interesting for a child to play these games alone, which is why parents should take part in them with the baby, thus bringing in a competitive spirit.

If there are no sports toys, then you can come up with several games, which will be based on both attentiveness and, of course, a reward. For example, you can hide some toy or candy in the house, and then ask to find it, giving hints, so you can develop the child's logic and have fun.

Passive games

It is worth remembering about board games that many children will love. It can be children's lotto or dominoes, checkers, puzzles, as well as Monopoly games or passing mazes with cubes and fairy-tale heroes.

Don't forget about development creativity child and parents at the same time. For example, it will be very interesting for a child to draw a picture with his mother, for example, with his fingers or palm. The child will also like the making of handicrafts from scrap materials, cones, acorns or ordinary cereals, the same semolina or buckwheat, if sprinkled with it on a sheet of glue. It will be interesting for a child to mold it from plasticine or clay, especially if it is painted with food paints in bright colors.

It is possible to involve the baby in the household, turning the usual duties into a game. Many kids love to sculpt dough, so why not sculpt irregularly shaped pies or animal-shaped cookies together. You can make sweets from cocoa and butter or from burnt sugar; the child will make such sweets with unusual inspiration, because they will be intended specifically for him.

Educational games

Of course, making a child obediently cram letters or solve problems is unlikely to work, so it is worth using a few tricks. You can take a regular album with photos of relatives and ask the kid to remember who is shown in the pictures, count people, tell about their memories associated with the images. The child will be happy to complete all the tasks, and along the way, he will remember the numbers and train his memory.

Also good job there will be a composition of fairy tales, for example, about little boy, who is 6 years old and he lives with his mother in a small town. A child, having heard the beginning of a story that resembles his own, will be happy to join the process and begin to supplement the tale with new details from his own life, fantasizing along the way about what could happen to him. Thus, you can develop logical thinking, increase vocabulary, and also gain an understanding of what the child is really interested in and what he wants.

It is not difficult to find something to do at home for a 6-year-old child, the main thing is that the parents understand that it is not the activity itself that is important for the child, but the presence of parents nearby, as well as their sincere interest in his success and love.
