Can your child sit all day with a book and diligently draw letters in a notebook? Then you are a rare lucky one. Most preschool children will prefer active games to classes, and in order to teach them anything, parents have to be very patient. We decided to ask the experts how to make learning easy, interesting for children and not burdensome.
Our expert: Natalya Mikryukova, head of the Strekoza children’s center.
At preschool age, play is the child’s leading activity. With her help, he learns the world, shows his character, learns to communicate. This is what the kid does with pleasure. Therefore, it is very important to correctly use the principle of play for pedagogical purposes, coming up with different types of activity, funny situations and communicating with the child in his language.
Consider scenario options using the example of a children’s leisure center , the motto of which is “Developing – playing!”
1. Task: to charge. Children, of course, are happy to run, jump endlessly and are not ready to exercise at the request of an adult. Then you can play a team game with the children: for example, two teams compete with each other. We put balls in baskets, do somersaults, run on one leg, etc. Or we build children in pairs and play in a trickle: the last pair passes in a “tunnel” that is formed by raised hands. The younger the kid, the simpler the conditions for the game: we run to the music, sit on a chair during a pause. The winners receive symbolic encouragement – paper stickers or bagels.
2. Objective: to explain to children the rules of behavior in public places. Morality will not help here. Meanwhile, it is very important to instill in children the ethics of behavior in public places from early childhood. Alternatively, dramatizing situations in which children become actors themselves. Or a game of puppet theater, the characters of which find themselves in different situations.
3. Objective: learning a foreign language. There are a lot of options for how you can learn words and phrases in a foreign language in a playful way. Most often, with children under 4 years old, the teacher learns songs in which words from another language sound. The older the child, the more variations of games that can teach phonetics, grammar and vocabulary.
4. Objective: to develop creativity. Children willingly draw, mold from plasticine, glue handicrafts, make crafts. At the beginning of a creative activity, it is good to create a game situation. For example, Fedora came from a fairy tale, the dishes ran away from her. Let’s, guys, blind, draw, decorate, glue new dishes for grandmother. In a game situation, the work will go much more fun!
5. Objective: to correct age-related problems in behavior. Psychologists distinguish several periods of a child’s growing up, which can occur with difficulties in behavior: at 3 years old, at 6 years old, etc. Kids are capricious, do not listen to adults, they do everything out of spite. Play a fairy tale with your child. Let him become a brave hero, he himself will cope with the mischievous whim. Our psychologist-fairy tale therapist will tell you how to do this, advise parents on the rules of behavior.

Additional education using unique methods
Our expert: Irina Faerberg, director of the Prostokvashino Center, 20 years of experience in preschool pedagogy.
Agree, if the parents do not have a pedagogical education, it is impossible to work with the child at home according to the professional program for the comprehensive development of the baby. And even if there is education, it is not always possible to organize regular lessons. Therefore, a specialized children’s institution will help out, in which special attention is paid to the education of the baby. For example, in the kindergarten “Prostokvashino” the basis of the educational program is the best practices that meet state standards. Additional development is provided by unique techniques and training courses.
What educational programs are popular now?
Methods of education of Maria Montessori. The main principle of the system: “Help me do it myself!” This means that an adult must understand what interests the baby at the moment, create optimal conditions for development for him and show what can be done in these conditions. The child is given freedom of choice and action. The study of something is based on the interests of the baby (the child needs to be interested, and he will develop himself).

And if a child grows up in the family, then a joint hobby will also be a good reason to get closer to parents and children, to find common topics for discussion.

Development of creative abilities
Our expert: Elena V. Olshanskaya, teacher of the creative studio “Dream”.
All children are talented – each in its own way. In early childhood, kids willingly play outdoor games, draw, sculpt, sing and dance. To develop further creative abilities, parents should devote more time to joint activities with their child and carefully observe which type of activity for the baby is more enjoyable. On the one hand, even if a child does not become a great artist in the future, drawing skills, for example, will always be useful to him. On the other hand, the early development of creative abilities may affect the choice of a future profession and he will do what he loves. The teachers of the Krasnodar studio “Dream” help children develop their abilities.
At what age is it recommended to start practicing this or that type of creativity?
Painting, graphics… It is recommended to start classes at the age of 3 years. Kids are happy to try different drawing techniques – pencils, finger paints. They still cannot concentrate on clarity, but they are learning how to use a brush and choose colors. Teachers help them immerse themselves in the wonderful world of fine art. As they grow up, children paint with watercolors, gouache, acrylics and oils. Classes are held in a bright, spacious studio, there are individual and group (5-7 people).
Decorative and applied arts. Children from 3 years old can make simple types of crafts. For example, modeling from special plasticine, paper applications. The older the child becomes, the more complicated the manufacturing technique of the product. Clay modeling, painting on wood, origami, dough plastic, batik, stained glass, wool felting. For children from 9 years old and older, training is carried out in decoupage, cross-stitching, scrapbooking, quilling, making a Tilda doll, modeling from colored mass.
Drawing and sketching. Nowadays, not all schools teach these disciplines. Therefore, students have the opportunity to master them by studying with an experienced teacher. This direction is relevant for high school students.
Also:
– there is a department for preparing for school (from the age of 5), from the new school year, English classes are planned for preschoolers and younger students.
– master classes for children and adults in fine and applied arts are held.
– the studio conducts a unique fingerprint test “Genetic Test”. You will be able to find out what kind of sport the child can do more successfully, what profession to choose and much more. Testing is conducted for children and adults.
