Looking for things to do with a 9-year-old (or older)? This list has you covered.

Despite having a seemingly endless number of activities at their disposal, it’s almost inevitable that 9- to 12-year-olds will regularly utter the two dreaded words: “I’m bored.” While this catchphrase is — let’s face it — a little annoying, it’s important for parents and caregivers to remember that physical and mental stimulation is crucial for tweens, and the relationship between the two is symbiotic.

“Being stimulated mentally and physically is very important to kids in this [9-12] age group,” says board-certified pediatrician Dr. Jen Trachtenberg, noting that the latter plays a vital role in the former. “Tweens should be striving for 30-60 minutes of heart-pumping exercise a day, which in turn will improve overall wellness, including better sleep, more confidence, decreased anxiety and depression and better focus. ” Trachtenberg notes that, while team sports come with social benefits, things like “running, yoga or even taking a brisk walk together” are just as good for getting their heart rate up.

“Tweens should be striving for 30-60 minutes of heart-pumping exercise a day, which in turn will improve overall wellness, including better sleep, more confidence, decreased anxiety and depression and better focus.”

— DR. JEN TRACHTENBERG, PEDIATRICIAN

When it comes to finding mentally stimulating activities for tweens, Trachtenberg recommends activities where kids can “relax and be creative without being judged.” “Reading, doing art projects together and cooking and baking are all great ways to bond with children and work on their mental fitness,” she says.

The next time your preteen starts complaining about not having anything to do, try out some of these stimulating activities to do with tweens:

50+ Unplugged Activities for Tween Age Boys

Tired of hearing, “I’m bored!” Tired of being told there is “nothing” to do? Looking for things for your tween boy to be engaged in? We’ve got you covered! This post is full of activities, hobbies, jobs, and more that tweens will enjoy.

The “tween” years (10-12 years old, but I’m including age 9) can be a challenging time. They’re not little kids anymore, but they aren’t teens yet either. Toys are not as fun, but they’re not old enough to go places on their own or have a job.

My sons are currently 15, 12, and 10, and 7. My experience has been that tween boys have a LOT of energy. Constant climbing, jumping, running, etc. You think they’ll outgrow all that energy when they’re older, but then they’re older and they seem to have even MORE energy! Plenty of opportunities for active play and heavy work (mowing the lawn, hauling rock, using tools, etc.) are definitely needed.

NOTE: There is no set age that kids are ready to do more dangerous things, such as mow the lawn. You are the best judge of your child’s readiness – please don’t take my age recommendations as set in stone. This post is designed to be a reference and a spring-board for ideas. Take what you can use, and leave the rest.

And yes, girls will enjoy these activities too – this is just meant to be a resource for those looking for activities for boys.

Encourage unplugged play and hobbies! I’m not against technology by any means, but I do think that part of our role as parents is to help our kids find balance in this area. There are so many interesting things to do besides endless YouTube videos and video games. But kids will never discover all these things when electronics SEEM more interesting than anything else. Help them create good habits and establish productive hobbies by keeping technology reigned in at your house. Show your kids how to control their devices – not be controlled by their devices.

Wood working. Learning to hammer a nail and use basic tools is a great skill for older boys! Home Depot sells scrap boards for 50 cents and $1, and Aidan has had a great time sawing and hammering on scrap boards in the garage. He even made me a wooden cross for Christmas a couple years ago! These wood robots are a great project for beginners.

Take apart old appliances. Do you have any broken appliances or machines lying around? It’s fun to take apart an old phone, printer, toaster, etc. Then save the parts for inventing and tinkering.
Start a business. If your tween age son is wanting to earn more cash, why not help them start their own business? A few ideas: Pet sitting, bringing in trash cans for neighbors, doing odd jobs such as weeding flower beds or washing windows, washing vehicles, mowing lawns, babysitting.
Snap circuits. If you’re not familiar with them, Snap Circuits are building sets that use electricity to create awesome projects. The pieces “snap” onto a base, and it’s easy to create electrical circuits without a bunch of exposed wires or alligator clips. We own the Snap Circuits sc-300 set, and it has been totally worth it. Kids can easily follow the instruction manual by themselves starting at about age 8. Projects include things like a dog whistle, a morse code generator, several “space wars” sounds, and a spinning propeller that really launches into the air.

LEGO. I’m not sure that LEGO can ever be outgrown! For the child who needs some direction with their LEGO building, we have many building challenges here on this site! Check out all of our Lego ideas here. Here are some of our favorites: LEGO Candy Dispenser, LEGO Mechanical Puzzle, Rubber Band Powered LEGO Car, LEGO Marble Run

Outdoor recreation. Ideas for being active outdoors: tennis, archery, bike riding, frisbee golf, skateboarding, hiking, running, swimming. We have an archery place near our house that does a league on Monday night.

Build a chain reaction from craft sticks. This takes some time to build – but the results are totally worth it! Fun for the kid who enjoys domino effect type things. Instructions in the original post.

Learn some card tricks. Here are three fun card tricks to get started with!

Play games as a family. The tween years are not a time to pull back! Your kids need time with you now just as much as they did when they were little. Here’s a collection of 15 card games for families. Other fun family games – Blokus, Exploding Kittens, Catan. Our boys love to play Catan!

Take on real projects. My tween can often be restless around the house and a pest to his younger brothers, but he is so focused when he has the opportunity to do real grown-up work. Boys this age like to feel needed, and they like to know that their work is appreciated and is making a real difference. Some ideas: learn to use the lawnmower, spread mulch, weed flower beds, organize a closet, have their own table at a garage sale, plan a meal and cook it, clean out the garage, nail on new fence slats.

Go on a “career” field trip. It’s never too early to start thinking about the future! What are your kids interested in? Call your vet and see if they will let you come for a “behind the scenes” tour. In our area, the National Weather Service does field trips if you sign up as a group. Check out the options in your area!

Do laundry from start to finish. If they don’t already know how to operate the washer and dryer, age 9 is a great time to get started! Tweens can sort their own clothes, wash, dry, fold, and put away. It’s good to have the experience of thinking ahead (when do I need to have school pants clean, etc.) and following through.

Get crafty! One of our favorite older kid crafts was our Pipe Cleaner Ninjas. So. much. fun! I keep getting e-mails from readers with pictures of their ninjas. They have been a hit! Other big kid crafts: Ninja Stress Balls, Make a marble bowling game, How to Train Your Dragon pipe cleaner dragons.
Crafting with Paracord – Paracord (parachute cord) is such a fun crafting material. You can make bracelets with it, and we’ve even made snakes! Check Pinterest and YouTube for lots of tutorials.

Crafting with duct tape. Aidan and I have recently discovered crafting with duct tape! Here is a tutorial on making a duct tape wallet. Or, make some duct tape Lego capes!

PVC Pipe Projects. We love creating things out of PVC pipe. Make a bow and arrow, a water shooter, or a marshmallow blow gun.

Learn how to cook or bake. Who says boys shouldn’t cook? Tween age boys can learn to make grilled cheese, scrambled eggs, omelettes, brown ground meat, cook spaghetti, bake cookies, make a cake, and more. Plus, their future wives will thank you someday!

Photography. We bought our second son an entry level DSLR camera for Christmas the year he was 11. I wasn’t sure if it would be worth the money, but he has LOVED it! He has learned so much about photography, and has really found his niche with nature photography and especially birds.
Draw comic strips. Kids can invent their own characters and create their own worlds! We love reading some good ol’ Calvin and Hobbes for inspiration. My kids also love to draw superhero comics.

Keva plank toys. We bought the Keva Contraptions set that comes with 200 planks and 2 balls. The instruction manual is really well done. I was impressed at how quickly Aidan was able to build some really amazing structures! The one in the picture above is called a “cascade,” and the ball rolls back and forth across the platforms and then comes out at the bottom and lands in that square. Building with Keva planks requires patience and a steady hand, but it’s a great challenge for older kids who enjoy building and engineering. Here are five engineering challenges that we developed for use with Keva planks.

Do a wacky science project. The budding scientist might enjoy a book full of projects to make and do. Check out Sneaky Uses for Everyday Things. We enjoyed making plastic from vinegar and milk from that book! Another favorite idea – mix up some magnetic slime. With adult supervision, kids will enjoy burning steel wool with a 9 volt battery. Hey, I enjoyed it too! You can also use baking soda and vinegar to make some instant hot ice. So cool. And of course, there is always the classic soda bottle rocket! (Ours flew higher than our house!)

Build a bridge. Kids can also do some engineering with materials that you already have on hand! Build a bridge with straws and straight pins that is strong enough to hold 100 pennies. Or build a bridge out of popsicle sticks.

Film making. For the guy who is not really into building and engineering, how about film making? I talked to a friend who said her boys spend HOURS creating stop-action movies with their toys. They film with an iPad and use iMovie to put it together. It’s also fun to film humorous sketches or plays.

Learn to play guitar. If you can do lessons, go for it! If you can’t afford lessons, guitar is an instrument that can be learned from books and Youtube videos, especially if your child has already learned another instrument such as piano. My oldest son adores his guitar!

Volunteering. 9-12 is too young to officially volunteer most places, but look for things to do as a family. We have enjoyed helping with landscaping at our church. Learning to serve is so important for this age group! It’s really fulfilling to do something for others, and this age group is getting to the point where they can really grasp that.

How Activities for 9 Year Olds are Beneficial

From math activities and science activities to reading activities, there are various kinds of activities for nine-year-olds. Both exciting and educational, these activities make learning an enjoyable activity.

With improved vocabulary, reading, math, and fine motor skills, nine year olds are at a more advanced stage of learning. Activities for nine year olds are based on different subjects will not only help them in learning new concepts but it will also help them build existing ones. Parents and teachers must ensure that activities for nine-year-olds are of a more complex and challenging nature so that they can stimulate their active brains.

Activities for 9 Year Olds – Engaging, Exciting and Educational

Nine year olds are generally in third or fourth grade. Activities for nine-year-olds are designed to match the skills and abilities of kids in these grades, thus helping them grasp new concepts easily. Nine year olds are more independent and prefer organized games and activities. Activities that nine year olds are exposed to should not only keep them occupied but should also sharpen their skills and evoke an interest in learning. Apart from activities on different subjects, these kids should also be encouraged to participate in sports and other extra-curricular activities. After all, such activities for nine year olds help kids grow up to be well-rounded!

Finalizing (!) our series during this final year of AoS of the top 12 published posts of all time (measured in simple traffic numbers), this one is officially the most popular of all time on this website. I wrote it when we were living overseas well over a decade ago, and people still read this daily. Daily! That makes me happy.

The Countdown: 12 / 11 / 10 / 9 / 8 / 7 / 6 / 5 / 4 / 3 / 2 / 1

“Mom, can I watch a movie?”

This is how I woke up this morning. A cute little four-year-old face, inches away from mine, asking for entertainment.

I don’t have a problem with TV or movies—we watch them both. But we all know they’re far too often the default choice of leisure time for children. They can easily suck away imagination, energy, and the innocence of our kids.

But during the dog days of summer, rainy days, and veritable blizzards in the backyard, it’s also hard to shoo your kids outside. So… what’s a parent to do? Not much. But there’s plenty that children can do indoors on their own without touching a remote (I’m a big fan of boredom—it spawns creativity).

Here are a few ideas.

1. Read a book.

Our kids’ books are right in our living room, available any time of day. The kids know they can pull a book off the shelves whenever they want.

2. Write a book.

Even if your kids aren’t yet writing fluently, they can still create stories. Create a collection of blank books, and let your kids illustrate a story. Later, write the words for them as they dictate them to you, or they can sound out the words phonetically and write the story on their own.

(These books make great keepsakes.)

3. Act out a book.

Does your child have a perennial favorite book? Have her act it out—the plot may take a unique turn, all her own. While I was making breakfast just this morning, my four-year-old daughter said, “Mom, right now I’m going on a walk at half past nine.”

4. Listen to a book.

Audible has a great selection of quality books for children, and Librivox has a large selection of free public domain books. Download a few to your device, and either give your child some headphones, or play the book over speakers while they play quietly.

5. Make an indoor clubhouse.

Build a blanket fort. Get your child started, and see how else they architect a little place of their own.

6. Perform a puppet show or play.

Collect hand-me-down clothes and thrift store finds as a dress-up box. Kids can create costumes for a play, with you as the audience. Or, they can let their stuffed animals star as puppets, and hide behind the couch for a dramatic reenactment starring their pretend friends.

You can also make a simple puppet show theater with a spring-loaded curtain rod and a piece of fabric in a doorway.

7. Have an indoor picnic or tea party.

Lay out an outdoor tablecloth on the floor for lunch—kids think it’s a big treat to do the everyday in a special place. Or, brew some tea (my daughter’s favorite is blackberry), and have a little tea time in cups with saucers, alongside crackers or bread for an afternoon treat.

8. Make homemade play-doh.

Play-doh made from scratch is easy, and you can make an endless array of colors with natural food dyes. Spread the outdoor tablecloth on the floor, and give them dull knives, a rolling pin, and some cookie cutters.

9. Help with chores.

Chores teach kids that running the house is a family effort and that life involves work and things we don’t always enjoy doing. (p.s.—A preschool chore chart on the downloads page.)

10. Save TP rolls and wad up your socks.

Arrange toilet paper rolls like bowling pins on one end of the hall. Stock up a few balled-up socks on the other. Bowl or throw at the pins, and you’ve got an indoor bowling alley. There’s tons of other crafts you can do with toilet paper rolls, too.

11. Get your groove on.

Even the parent can benefit from this little break in the day. Crank up the peppy music and get dancing. Even 10 minutes of jiving with release some wiggles, and it’s a stress relief for you, too.

12. Craft, craft, craft.

Our kids draw or create near daily. Keep a simple art cabinet handy, and your children can grab supplies whenever their muse strikes. If they want to paint, simply use that handy outdoor tablecloth again, and spread it on the kitchen floor.

13. Write a letter to a friend.

Old-fashioned letter writing is a dying art, what with e-mail being today’s communication method of choice. Let them write a letter to Grandma, her cousins, or a friend, and make someone’s day when they open their mailbox a few days later.

14. Have a playdate.

Invite your child’s friend over—this sometimes makes for an even easier day, because your kiddo has a playmate instead of asking you to play all the time.

15. Play shop or restaurant.

A notepad, pencil, apron, tray, and play food are all the kids need to play restaurant at the dining room table. Sticky notes make good price tags.

16. Rearrange the bedroom.

If your child is old enough to safely move small furniture around, let him explore his creative side and rearrange his bedroom. Depending on the result, it could be an afternoon set up or a new permanent look.

17. The classic: cardboard boxes.

Keep a few handy, and watch your child’s imagination take over: a castle, a spaceship, a sailboat for an adventure to a new world.

18. Go on a treasure hunt.

Take five minutes and hide some treasures (toys, rocks, whatever) around the house. Make a list of the items, and have your child go on a treasure hunt. If they can’t yet read, draw a sketch of the hidden item.

19. Have them help with cooking.

If they’re old enough to stir, sift, and pour, let them help you with the basics—pasta and pizza sauces, muffins, and breads are all kid-friendly. It’s a good way to teach numbers, fractions, nutrition, and basic life skills.

20. Nothing.

Boredom is good for kids. Make a rule that if your kid announces they’re bored, they’ll have to do chores. So if they truly can’t think of anything off-hand to do… eventually, they’ll think of something.

11 best children’s board games for 8, 9, 10 years old

8-10 years old is a time for active exploration of the world and learning new things. This is the 2nd or 3rd grade of the school: the child is no longer quite a baby, knows and can do something, but has not yet had time to get tired of the lessons – and, as a result, his desire to learn is just being realized in full swing.

At this moment, it is especially important that children brought up in the era of smartphones and tablets do not lose touch with the real world, getting used to turning to the gadget for any issue. How to keep them? As in any business, only voluntarily, with the help of positive emotions. And such emotions are given to the child, no doubt, by the game – and it would be nice if it not only pleases, but also educates at the same time.

Board games are perfect for this definition, many of which were invented and made by specialists specifically for teaching children. We have a lot of such games suitable for both girls and boys in our store, and the best of them are in the selection below.

Interesting board games for the company of children aged 9

Imaginarium Childhood

Number of players : from 4 to 7
Delicate and very beautiful card game that trains the imagination and associative thinking, and simply delights. The principle of the game is the same as in the adult Imaginarium – a game of association – but in the children’s version all the illustrations are only cute, kind, not in the least frightening: you can safely give the box with the game to the children and go drink tea . .. or stay to stealthily look at the pictures from games.

Firewood

Number of players : from 1 to 16
Smooth wooden blocks nicely sanded and packed in a nice tin tube so that the game can be taken anywhere: the game in it does not take up much space, does not get lost, yes it also looks great. It’s great that Firewood is suitable for any age: just dismantle and complete the tower.

Elias for the whole family

Number of players : from 3 to 8
The favorite game about the explanation of words by many is now in a special family version: simpler cards for children, additional conditions for adults so that the chances of all participants are truly equal. And in this version, the game goes one on one: spin the roulette wheel to find out who your partner is in this round. And there are as many as 500 cards with words!

IQ Companion of a genius

Number of players : 1 which field you will choose (yes, it has two fields at once – in fact, these are two games under one cover). 120 tasks for different variants of pyramids, which are made up of round elements that look like either atoms or colored candies, develop logic and spatial thinking, and also guarantee entertainment for many hours.

Naval battle

Number of players : 2
That same naval battle from our childhood is now in a convenient box, so you can take it with you even on the train, even to the country. Ships (and everything else) no longer need to be drawn: now you place figures of real ships around the field, and hits or misses are shown using white and red torpedo tokens. Boys and their dads will be wildly delighted with this game.

Games for girls 9 years old

Magic cauldron

Number of players : 2 to 4
A magical game about how to save the kingdom from an evil sorcerer. To do this, you need to brew a potion – and for a potion, you need ingredients that must be delivered to the cauldron before the evil sorcerer himself (who, of course, does not sleep!) interferes with you. The game has special magic dice, a token with a sorcerer’s hat, vials of potions, a horned toad, a dandelion root, a poisonous mushroom – in general, this is an excellent team table that girls love, but boys will also be interested.

Plush Tales

Number of Players : 2 to 4 An adventure board game book in which plush toys fight the powerful villain Nightmare. Read the book and do the tasks. There are 10 scenarios in the game. Each adventure must be completed while the little mistress is sleeping. Cool game for girls with amazing miniatures.

Educational and educational games for a child 9-10 years old

7 by 9

Number of players : from 2 to 4
Board mathematical game for children and adults for quick counting and attentiveness. Each card has large numbers and small numbers that indicate how much to subtract or add to the big one: for example, to a card with a main number of 6 and a small +2, you need to add 2 to get 8. Do you have a card with the number 8? Rather, put it on a stack! An incredibly fun way to learn addition and subtraction.

Delissimo Gang of Wise Men

Number of players : from 2 to 5
A game about fractions and about how a whole pizza is better than slices. Actually, in the game you are the chef of a pizzeria, and you need to collect a whole pizza. How? Three answers: kids can just collect tokens with painted pieces, older kids can play with special pizza cards, and those who are just learning fractions at school will take a pro level where you have to match cards with fractions and ingredients with pizza cards and fulfill “delivery orders”. In any case, this is the most comfortable way to learn fractions. Side effect – after it you really want pizza.

Smart gang is famous for educational games for children, see the full list in this category.

Magnetic Scrabble

Number of players : 2 to 4
Stylish new magnetic Scrabble – you can play even in zero gravity! The set includes special coasters for letters, a linen bag for them, and a galaxy is drawn on the playing field.

MUSIC THERAPY is a psychotherapeutic method for correcting emotional states. This method allows you to quickly relieve stress, calm down. In childhood, music therapy will successfully cope with the child’s behavioral problems, emotional anxiety, and will also help to survive age-related crises associated with the development of the child.

Modern special psychology and pedagogy are largely focused on the use of music therapy in correctional work, as an important means of educating a child’s harmonious personality, his cultural education.

In group music therapy classes, we do not set ourselves the goal of developing musical abilities proper, the main elements of the classes are aimed at solving not musical problems, but problems that are significant for the development of the child.

Classes are held 2 times a week for 30-40 minutes (depending on the group).

During the lessons, children develop a song repertoire that can be expanded further. They are able not only to passively listen to music, but also to create it – to sing, dance, play musical instruments. But most importantly, they want and interact with each other and with the people around them.

Individual classes are held on the recommendation of specialists (speech therapist, psychologist).

Method of psychotherapy used for treatment and psychocorrection. It diagnoses a person’s condition, and heals, and makes it possible to know oneself.

ART therapy works effectively both in counseling and therapy for adults and in working with children.

ART therapy gives the best results when it is used in a state of severe stress. The method eliminates apathy and lack of initiative, helps with depression, fears, neuroses, psychosomatic diseases.

Indications: intra- and interpersonal conflicts, crises, existential and age-related crises, traumas, losses, post-stress disorders, psychosomatic disorders, development of creativity, personality integrity, discovery of personal meanings through creativity, etc.
The specialist works both on individual requests, same with groups.

AGE GROUPS:

Preparing for school (4-7 years old)
Schoolchildren (9-14 years old)
Adolescents (15-18 years old)
Women (19-55 years old)

“Stretching” and “Pilates” » is aimed at women 18 years of age and older, regardless of the current level of physical fitness.

Group classes are held 1-2 times a week. The duration of one lesson is 1 hour. Course – 10-16 lessons.

Stretching exercises perfectly train the muscles of the neck, back, arms and the entire upper body, allow you to alternate tension and relaxation of muscle tissues, which helps to quickly relieve tension in the muscles. Stretching exercises will not allow muscles and joints to lose mobility and thereby prevent aging. The work of the autonomic nervous system improves, more hormones of joy (beta-endorphins) are produced, and insomnia disappears. As a result of these processes, women’s mood rises. And another important factor is a more intense oxygen exchange, which occurs as a result of physical exertion, thereby we achieve a decrease in the level of anxiety, increase emotional stability. The body receives more useful substances that resist diseases from the environment, which means it leads to longevity.

Pilates is a complete training system that includes elements and exercises borrowed from martial arts and yoga.

Pilates classes are based on smooth, slow movements, which are primarily aimed at stretching and strengthening the muscle corset.

Pilates classes are part of an integrated approach that Crisis Center specialists use to help women in difficult life situations. The calm and relaxed atmosphere of classes is designed to find vitality and strength through control over the actions of your body, in order to further use them in your living space.

You and Me Teen Therapy Group

TARGET GROUP: younger (10-13 years old) and older (14-17 years old) teenagers.

Classes include a cycle of 10-12 meetings with a frequency of 1 time per week, lasting 2 hours with a break. Only 20-24 hours.

Group work is recommended for adolescents who have difficulties in communication: those who have difficulty establishing contact and relationships with peers, withdrawn children, those who cannot meet or make friends with anyone at all.

Group work is also useful for those who, on the contrary, establish a large number of superficial relationships, not being able to build close ones.

Conflicts with adults in everyday life (at school with parents) are also a good reason to turn to group work.

Also well suited for children developing in a socially impoverished environment, such as home schoolers or long hospital stays, children with limited social circles and emotional retardation.

For the same reasons, a group form of work can be recommended to those teenagers who receive a significant part of their communication on the Internet – for these children it is useful to acquire live communication skills.

In the group, participants get the opportunity not only to face the problem of self-regulation and what kind of response it causes from others, but also, together with other participants, develop their own style of managing impulsive behavior.

The group gives children the opportunity to show their analytical skills and sensitivity, raise their status in the eyes of their peers and consciously work through personal problems.

Does housework appropriate for their age

Some parents may assign children certain tasks, such as sorting waste or sweeping floors. Others may ask the children to help with whatever needs to be done. As a rule, younger students need more supervision, while older children can do a few household chores on their own.

Whatever children’s work you decide to give your first grader, try to adapt it to her abilities and what she wants to do. Giving children housework increases their self-esteem, teaches them the importance of work and its completion, teaches them responsibility and shows them among other things, the importance of maintaining cleanliness and order. homework for kids can help you figure out what kind of work your child can handle.

Housework that a 5 to 7 year old child can do

sweep the floors
Take her bed
Take your room
Hit a towel
Feed Pets
Serving table
Help wash the dishes after eating

Work from 8 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 to 10 years

Load the dishwasher
Take away food
Make him breakfast, lunch and snacks
Laundry
Walk the dog
Work in the yard
Help prepare dinner

In addition, try to involve your child in more important tasks, such as grocery shopping. This can be a great opportunity to teach him how to choose healthy food (he can help you choose fresh fruits and vegetables and decide what to cook for the meal). It can also be a great way to teach him about money and family budgeting, a particularly important topic for families in today’s economy.

Other tips to remember

Children want to help. Take advantage of this natural desire and encourage her passion for fulfilling children’s duties. Do not force the child to do what he does not want; instead, make it fun and seductive so she wants to do it. Rewards and incentives are also a great way to encourage kids to get involved. For example, you can tell your child that they can get a star for each task they complete, and at the end of the week they can choose a family activity for everyone for an hour on the weekend.
If he says he is bored, it may be because young children often lack attention. He may also have trouble doing chores the way he wants to. Ask him if he wants to complete the task with you, or let him switch to something else that is equally difficult and not too easy.
Get her opinion on things she would like to try. If it’s too difficult or dangerous for her age, come up with an alternative. For example, if your child is too young to chop vegetables but wants to help prepare dinner, they can tear up a salad for a salad or measure and mix the ingredients instead.
Make household chores fun for the kids. When we clean the house, we turn on rock music to get motivated. Not only does it keep us moving, but it makes even cleaning the toilet a lot more fun.
Praise him. At first, your classmate is likely to make a mess or do it wrong. But rest assured, with time and practice, he will get better. This time around, the investment will pay off in the long run when your child is still pre-teen or the teenager who takes on most of the household chores.

Like many things in raising children, you get what you put in. By taking the time to help your young child develop the habit of helping around the house, you will set a pattern that will benefit both of you as he grows.

How the media can damage your teen’s body Image

According to a Common Sense Media report, the average teen spends about nine hours a day using the media for entertainment. Frighteningly, these same teens spend an average of less than 10 minutes a day talking to their parents. Interacting with others

It’s likely that during those nine hours of media use, your teen receives thousands of messages about the “ideal” body. These unrealistic and unattainable images of beauty can ruin your teen image if you’re not careful.

messages teenagers receive

Movies, commercials, magazines and websites portray beautiful people as perfect. Underweight models and impeccable photoshops everywhere. Health foods and beauty products show that being slim and attractive is the key to happiness and success.

The effect can be seen in children at a young age. Studies show that children as young as 3 years of age prefer play figures depicting thin people over heavier ones. By the age of 10, 80% of American girls were on a diet.

Social media and excellence

It’s not just traditional media that makes teens thin and beautiful. Social media can have an even stronger impact on your teen image.

Immediate feedback between co-workers can be addictive for those whose self-esteem depends on social media affirmations.

Many teenagers crave peer validation, and social media is a quick way to get feedback. Whether a teenager is posting selfies on Instagram or browsing photos of other people showing off their “thigh rips” on Tumblr, the social impact can be very powerful.

Some teenagers spend hours trying to get a selfie at the right angle. Others rate their appearance by the number of likes their latest photo received on Facebook.

Unfortunately, many teens are subjected to harsh criticism and rude comments on social media. Cyberbullying can seriously damage a teen’s appearance.

Consequences of bad body image

Striving to be thin can have serious consequences. Research has linked the emergence of images of women’s bodies to underweight and unhealthy diets and lower self-esteem.

Poor body image can lead to even more serious consequences. Some teens develop eating disorders, while others develop depression. Study 2009years showed that girls who are dissatisfied with their appearance have a significantly higher risk of suicide. Interaction with other people

Boys and body image

Girls are not the only ones subjected to unrealistic portrayals of beauty in the media. Superheroes and action figures portray unrealistic body types and start sending the wrong messages to boys at an early age. Teenage boys may strive for the perfect body through diet or compulsive exercise. They may also develop eating disorders or mental health issues due to poor body image.

Media Harm

It is impossible to prevent your teen from being constantly bombarded with harmful media images. Smartphones and larger electronic devices mean your teen will see idealized versions of beauty everywhere. But you can teach your teen to be media literate.

Use real examples . Watch TV together and pause shows and commercials to discuss your messages. Look at magazines together and discuss unrealistic images.
Let’s talk about ‘s marketing efforts. Discuss the tactics advertisers use to sell products. Help your teen identify key ideas about how the product will make her more attractive.
Discussing unhealthy body imaging . Discuss the harsh realities that underweight models and overly muscular stars face. Talk about the drastic and unhealthy steps many people take to achieve these body types, despite the fact that it is detrimental to their health.

Make these topics part of the conversation in your home. Help your teen develop a healthy body image and you will reduce the negative impact of media and social media.

If your child is having suicidal thoughts, call the National Suicide Prevention Helpline at 1-800-273-8255 for support and help from a qualified counselor. If you or a loved one is in immediate danger, call 911.

milestone for 9 year olds | CS Mott Children’s Hospital

Topic Overview

Children generally progress in a natural, predictable sequence from one milestone to the next. But each child grows and acquires skills at their own pace. Some children may be advanced in one area, such as language, but fall behind in another, such as sensory and motor development.

Milestones are generally grouped into five main areas: physical growth, cognitive development, emotional and social development, language development, and sensory and motor development.

Physical Growth and Development

9 things you need to know about 9 year olds

Ask many experienced parents and they will tell you that everything seems to change at age nine and their child seems to be leaving childhood behind and with looks forward to the onset of adolescence. Nine is considered the beginning of “adolescence”, the place where children enter puberty.

The transition from one stage of development to another is never easy; even more difficult is the transition from the relative comforts of childhood to the potential upheavals of adolescence. Nine years is an age of significant change, but is rarely recognized as such.

1. Puberty starts around

This is also a time when girls and boys can be vulnerable to body image issues, so be mindful of the comments you make about clothing, appearance, and weight. This is also a time to look in relation to food and diet. It is better to have a healthy and balanced diet than to constantly diet.

2 Preparing for the Future

Your nine-year-old child needs to be cared for, cared for, and at the same time encouraged to take on more responsibility. Help your child develop basic skills like planning their day and making new friends. This will help you succeed in high school later on.

3. Starting the transition from parent to peer

Nine-year-olds usually tend to do things away from their parents and home. Overnight stays are becoming more common. However, at this age, peers can make a difficult proposal. Many nine-year-olds have many best friends—best friends forever—but they can change very quickly as good friends come and go. Girls (more than boys) at this age often have difficulty making friends because the only thing they want from a friend – loyalty – can be lost.

4. Homework can raise a head for some

Homework at this age can divide a household. Many boys struggle with the whole concept, while girls often do it to please. Good homework for this age group has a specific purpose, such as developing the necessary planning and organization skills. Find out from your school what they are trying to achieve with their homework policy and follow their guidelines.

5. Ordinary allowance will be approved

Your nine-year-old will appreciate receiving a regular allowance, as well as being able to decide what he spends it on. “Lead rather than decide for them” is the mantra of parents with money for pocket expenses. Resist the temptation to top up your pocket money if they spend it all on one thing and have nothing left by the end of the week. At this age, your child is able to learn from the consequences of his decisions, and such lessons will help him improve control over his impulses, which should have already begun to develop.

6. Self-control needs to be modeled

Another aspect of self-control is the ability to deal with frustration and deal with conflict. At this point, your child should understand that conflict resolution does not require exercise or repression. Encourage them to discuss any issues related to your brother or sister with you as a judge for as long as necessary, instead of resorting to uncivilized and unfair methods of resolving them.

7. Prepare them when you are not around

Discuss with your nine-year-old child appropriate behavior when no adults are around. Reassure your child that he can say no to another child or adult if he is uncomfortable with the situation he is in. Increasingly, your child will find himself in situations in which he will have to decide for himself what to do – at such moments their understanding your expectations will make the difference.

8. Look for support groups

Encourage your nine year old to participate in positive activities and support groups such as a sports team, drama club, scouts/guides, etc. Attend these activities with your child and get to know their friends and their families.

9. Grow Your Relationships

Take advantage of the opportunity that your child’s tenth year presents. Make sure they are active members of your family because of the contributions they make. And, of course, make sure they feel loved, valued, and understood. The relationships you’re building now will help you stay close in the more tumultuous teenage years ahead.

Educational games for children from 1 to 2 years old: recommendations for parents

Expert advice

1-3 years

games for children

Your baby has already taken the first steps, and it turns out that a whole unknown world is hidden behind the threshold of the home that has been studied up and down. In the period from one to two years, the child begins to learn it, although under the gaze of the parent, but more independently.

What skills do children develop from one to two years old?

Physical development

Between the age of one and two, a child’s physical abilities undergo tremendous changes. The skill of upright walking is honed. Gradually, becoming more confident in his movements, the baby learns to overcome obstacles: to step over pits, walk on grass and pebbles without falling – his legs get tangled less and less. Soon, along with the ability to walk, the ability to run, jump, and climb various surfaces appears. The young climber easily climbs onto the back of the sofa, up the hill, the Swedish wall, and then confidently slides back.

Speech development

Speech development is already becoming more conscious: from syllables, the child moves on to words and phrases, and then to the formation of his first sentences.

Having accumulated a sufficient vocabulary for the first year and a half, closer to two years the child can already explain what he wants, naming the action, denoting its subject and object. Often during this period, the baby accompanies his phrases with gestures.

Development of sensory perception, game and objective activity

During this period, along with continuing to study the properties of objects, through direct interaction with them, the skill of manipulating objects is activated.

Closer to the age of two, children are already able to give roles to objects and act out scenes from life, imitating close people or heroes of their favorite cartoons and fairy tales.

7 games with children aged 1 to 2 years

Game for the physical and mental development of the baby

“Ball – all-around”

The participation of this unpretentious toy is expanding. One child will spend hours chasing the ball around the court, studying the relationship between the force of impact and the speed of the ball, and the other will observe the force of gravity in action, endlessly throwing the ball down the hill.

Closer to the age of two, you can start playing “edible – inedible” in a simplified variation. You just say the word, roll or throw the ball to the baby and ask him to repeat the word when he returns the ball back.

Speech development game

This role-playing game develops speech, fantasy, and first communication skills in toddlers.

“Baby Raccoon”

Many kids at this age are ready to play role-playing games, manipulating toys, and someone is already taking on their favorite roles of Little Raccoon, nurse, fireman.

Take the toys and assign roles. You can act out the plot of your child’s favorite fairy tale or a situation: a trip to the zoo or a visit for tea, a trip by public transport. Manage each of your game figure. Ask questions on behalf of the figurine, answer the child’s questions, encourage him to take action.

Game for the development of gross motor skills and speech

Round dance game develops gross motor skills, coordination, sense of rhythm, strengthens the emotional connection between the baby and the parent.

“Pan rode”

Stand in a circle, hold hands. If several adults and children are playing, position yourself so that the child is standing between two adults. If there is no company, then you can play together.

The game begins with walking in a circle and singing the words:

“I rode pan, rode pan,
rode step-step-step”

After a few circles “step” the round dance speeds up. The step turns into a light run. The words also change:

“I rode pan, rode pan,
trot-trot-trot”

The round dance moves even faster. Adults raise the kids by the hands so that they take their legs off the floor:

“I rode pan, rode pan,
swung, swung, swung”

Finally, the participants in the round dance gently fall to the floor, saying:

“Into the hole – boom!
They crushed forty flies!”

Repeat the game, spinning in a round dance in the opposite direction.

2 finger games for the development of fine motor skills and speech

I, the Parent, have already told about how useful finger games are. Here we present two more games for children from one to two.

“Two bears were sitting on a thin bough”

Invite the child to play a finger game, first trying on the role of the storyteller, and then entrusting it to the child. Start emotionally and artistically telling a story about bears by actively gesticulating:

“Two bears were sitting
on a thin bough”

Next, spread your arms as if you were opening a spread newspaper:

“One was reading a newspaper”

Putting one fist on top of the other, like parts of a millstone, move the top fist in a circle over the bottom, as if grinding flour:

“The other was grinding flour”

Then, knocking fists one over the other twice and alternating the position of the upper and lower fists:

“One poo, two poo!”

Pat your feet two or three times:

“They both fell into flour”

Touch your nose:

“Nose in flour!”

Touch an imaginary tail:

“Tail in flour!”

Touch the ear:

“Ear in sour milk!”

Play the story again, asking the child to repeat the words and gestures after you. At the end of the game, hug him and praise him for participating.

Runaway Hedgehog

Sit on the floor or sofa. Ask the baby to repeat all the gestures after you. Squeeze your hand into a fist. Stretch out your index finger and say:

“A bird is drinking water from a puddle”

Then make circular rotations with your fist on the floor, slightly moving your palm forward:

“A hedgehog without legs crawls along the ground”

Continue in a more emotional tone:

“Suddenly the legs have grown on a hedgehog!”

The fist “stands” on the fingers:

“And he ran, ran along the path!”

Moving the fingers like legs, the hedgehog palm “goes” forward.

2 Sensory Games

Sensory Box

At the age of one to two years, a child literally “reads” information about the properties of objects around him with his hands and eyes. A box with a variety of fillers will help diversify the home toy library and activate the sensory perception of the child.

Take a plastic, cardboard or any other box, fill it with semolina or millet and larger ingredients that differ in shape, size, weight. It can be legumes, beads, shells, a few cones and colored stones, paper clips, scraps of fabric. Bury the beads, stones and shells well in the loose part of the box filler. Prepare a separate jar or box where the baby will put the finds.

Invite the child to look for the treasure. Start digging with your child by dipping your and your child’s hands into the box. If the baby was the first to feel an interesting object with his hands, ask the baby with interest, calling him by name: “What is it?”, “Is it heavy or light?”, “What color is this shell?”. Having found out all the qualities of the object, fix them verbally: “Let’s put this white shell in the box!”. Collect a full chest of treasures and celebrate the end of the game.

Please note: not every two-year-old researcher can resist the temptation to turn the box upside down and try the beans on the tooth while mom is not looking. Therefore, after finishing the game, make sure that the sensory box is tightly closed and put it in a place inaccessible to the baby until the next game together.

Interactive board “Behind the Seven Seals”

Playing with an interactive board gives the child the opportunity to learn a lot about the properties and purpose of unfamiliar structures and objects, forms the concept of cause and effect relationships: pulled – opened, pushed – closed.

It is not difficult to make such a board. You will need a piece of plywood, locks and heck, which, as a rule, gather dust in the garage of thrifty dads and grandfathers. And men will certainly willingly undertake to make it by attaching locks and heck to a plywood or wooden plank.

Let your child figure out how to open and close latches and latches. Do not forget to voice the actions that the child takes: “You open the lock. You move the latch. You press the button.”

When playing with a child from one to two years old, it is important for parents to remember that the attention of the baby at this age is still involuntary. You should not demand results from him, and even more so, force him to play a game that the baby does not want to play. It is better to interest him in something new, improvise and follow his interests.

Testing the Knowledge of a Preschooler
Dear Parents!

We offer you a list of questions that will help determine how ready your child is for entering school.
To the questions presented, you will find possible answers that your child can use.

We all know that testing children before entering school is not provided for by current legislation. But this is on paper. In practice, testing will be an obligatory step when entering a gymnasium or simply a prestigious school. Moreover, the same test, only under the name “interview”, will most likely be offered to the child before entering any educational institution…

When selecting questions, topics that are widely used in interviews with children entering school were used. Mathematics, Logic, Attention, Memory, Natural history, Social education, Speech development.

Baby play 9-11 months | Talantiki

Outdoor games are simply necessary for the overall development of the baby. Even, it would seem, in a fairly passive position, when the child has not yet learned to crawl (let alone walk), you can come up with a lot of outdoor games. They will help develop agility, strength, coordination of movements, endurance.

Talking through the tube: Talk to the child through the cardboard tube, trying to change the voice. You will be surprised with what attention the child will listen to you, then fool around by uttering some sounds into the phone: ba-ba-ba or ma-ma-ma! Give the phone to the baby. He may want to repeat these sounds.

Baby cubes: Make some red cardboard cubes and one yellow one (250g milk cartons with sticky paper work well). Place the bell in the yellow cube. See if the child, when looking for a cube with a bell, can distinguish it by color.

Box with holes: Babies love to put their fingers in little holes and you can make a “toy” that your little one will love. Take a small box with thin walls and make two finger-wide holes on both sides. From the inside, glue the walls of the box with different materials – fur, burlap, velvet or sandpaper. Show your child how to put their finger in the hole. (And you can put your finger in another hole.) Talk with the baby about what his finger feels when touching the walls of the box, is it soft and pleasant there or the wall is rough and hard, etc. You can play with such a box even in the car.

Search and find: Hide a clock or a small radio under your pillow. The child will look for the clock, listening to where it ticks. This experience will improve his listening skills.

Music Time: Take a cereal box and turn it into a baby drum. Give your child a wooden spoon as a stick and show him how to hit the box with it.

Pushing the Car: Show your child how to push a small car or truck so it rolls across the floor. After a while, the baby will learn to push the car so that it will roll itself for a long time.

Table slapping: If you have a guest of your child’s age, have them both sit down at the table and let them play by banging and slapping the table.

Play phone: Take a toy phone and “talk” to your child, then let him talk. Playing “phone”, the baby will begin to enjoy the conversation. Even better is to turn off the real phone and play with it, although this can be inconvenient. The child may want to play again when the phone is not turned off.

Let’s tear it to pieces: Some children at ten months already want to tear something. Old magazines, tissue paper, wrapping paper or foil give the baby the opportunity to experiment with them. Just do not forget that the child may want to try what this paper tastes like. Children’s experiences in receiving small pieces of paper require close observation. If you see that the baby is more interested in stuffing a piece of paper into his mouth than tearing it up, it is better to postpone these activities until a later date.

Sticks and pebbles: During the walk you can find a lot of different things to do with children. Show your child how to pile up pebbles, twigs, or leaves. This will not only improve the motor activity of the child, but also stimulate the development of touch.

Peeling the paper strip off the table: Cut a piece of sticky paper into strips and attach the strips at one end to the table. Start pulling off one strip – the child will quickly understand what to do. For him, this will be as much fun as peeling off stickers from jars and bottles.

“Do as I do”: At this age, the child loves to imitate. Play with him in “do as I do” – let him repeat the movement of your hand and simple gestures. Tap on the table, open and close your fist, or put a hat on your head, all the while explaining to the baby what you are doing.

Inflatable ring balance: Place a child’s inflatable ring in front of the child, give him some small cubes and show him how to line them up on the surface of the ring. Feeling the instability of this surface, the child will more clearly understand what balance is. This lesson will help improve the coordination of his movements. The inflatable circle is also useful for the bathroom – the child can throw objects into the center of the circle, this game is usually so popular with children that it can last for a very long time.

Reach for the toy: If your child is already pulling himself up on his feet, you can give him a task. Place your baby’s favorite toys on a low table so he can reach them. Taking out objects, he trains spatial orientation.

9 ideas for creative activities with children

Irina Balmanzhi

500 Creative Ideas Collection contains original games and workshops to inspire your child to draw, build, write poetry and stories, sing, dance and improvise anywhere, anytime. We publish some interesting exercises from the book.

Creativity with babies (2-3 years old)

The kid is interested in everything around. Unquenchable curiosity and a craving for experimentation fuel creativity like nothing else.

Between 2 and 3 years of age is a great time to explore creative activities such as music, dance, acting, building with blocks, word art, and writing.

Children at such a young age cannot sit still for more than a couple of minutes. But even these moments of passionate creative pursuits are extremely important.

Advertisement thrown in your mailbox (flyers, brochures, envelopes)

Non-toxic white glue (PVA glue; use with parental supervision only)

Child safety scissors

Create with your child! Let everyone create their own collage from scraps and scraps of colorful flyers and complement it with drawings made with felt-tip pens, pencils or crayons.

Cardboard city

Baby, mom (or dad, sister, brother, grandma, grandpa, etc.) and a huge box – what an adventure!

Source

You will need:

4-6 medium to large cardboard boxes (available at the grocery store, just make sure the boxes are clean)

Colored paper and tape (to cover boxes)

Dolls, animal figurines, stuffed animals (“inhabitants” of the houses you will build)

Place the boxes in a large room or take them outside and show your child how to play: build a tower out of boxes, on each “floor” of which toys will “live” – let them sit in boxes. Or line up the boxes. Now let the kid play on his own. What house will he build? Who will he put there?

A basket of fairy tales

To compose an interesting story, all you need is a piece of paper with only one word written on it!

You will need:

Paper

Pencil

Basket

Think of ten words or topics that could be the plot of a fairy tale and write them on slips of paper. On each sheet, you can also draw something or stick a small photo or picture. Fold the leaves in half and throw them into the basket.

Have your child take a piece of paper out of the basket. Make up a short children’s story or story (2-3 minutes) using the word, picture, or story that comes up. The story can be funny and unpretentious, about events and actions that are understandable and familiar to kids from everyday life.

Accompany the story with facial expressions and gestures. Attract interest with your voice: make non-scary sounds, move to a whisper, speak in a high voice or bass.

Creativity with preschoolers (3-5 years old)

Three, four, five years old is a great age for a variety of creative activities. At this time, role-playing games and acting skills come to the fore. Children love trying new materials. They like to play with the constructor. They listen carefully and love to be told funny stories and read children’s books. They are attracted to music and dance.
You can do a lot to develop your preschooler’s imagination. Spend more time with him, listen to music, tell stories, put on puppet shows, draw and construct. Over time, creativity will become something familiar, familiar, and after many years your efforts will pay off a hundredfold!

Stick Dolls

Take a wooden stick, attach a picture of your favorite character to it, make a costume for him – the doll on a stick is ready!

You will need:

Markers or wax crayons

Cardboard

PVA glue

Fabric scraps

Woolen threads

Color paper

Glitter glue

Child safety scissors

Insulating tape

Wooden stick (e. g. for ice cream)

Sit next to each other and make your own doll. Draw some character on the cardboard. Decorate the drawing with pieces of fabric, woolen threads and colored paper. Use glitter glue to draw details and add sparkle!

When the design is ready, carefully cut it out along the outline. Attach a wooden stick to the back of the picture – you get a chrysalis on a stick. Then put on a puppet show on the kitchen table (for example, you can act out your favorite children’s fairy tale).

My Family Poster

Kids love making large colorful posters with letters and pictures. And this one is also dedicated to the family.

Illustration from My Family Book

You will need:

Large size solid color cardboard sheet

Photos of family members (or child with other family members)

Glue or tape

Markers

Have the child choose their favorite photos of family and friends, lay them out on a large piece of cardboard and stick them on. You can come up with funny captions for pictures together. Help older children write names under the photo.

Six questions

A simple and fun game that adults can use. It will help you write incredible stories!

You will need:

Pencil and paper

Explain to your child that together you will make up a funny story about animals, people or imaginary creatures. Then ask him six questions (see below) and you’ll have ideas on where to start. (If you are afraid to forget, write down the answers.)

Who will be the hero of our story? (Child answers: “Crocodile!”)

What is his name? (“Lesha!”)

Where does he live? (“In the house”)

What color is the house? (“Pink”)

What does the crocodile like to do in his spare time? (“Play football”)

What is his favorite food? (“Ice cream!”)

Collect all the answers and start composing! Introduce your hero and come up with a funny and ridiculous plot, weaving all the details into it. Do not drag out the story, because the attention of a 3-5-year-old child will not be enough for a long time (no longer than 3-6 minutes).

Art at school age (6-12 years)

Ages 6-12 are ideal for creative activities. The motor skills of the child are already quite developed, and he is well controlled with any tools and materials. Drawing, music, construction, dancing, theater, storytelling – everything is subject to him!

The task of adults is to create conditions so that the child can try himself in all kinds of creativity that he likes. Remember: he must like what he does. Do not put pressure on him, and he will take on new projects with optimism and confidence.

Creative activities for young photographers

Kids ages 6-12 love taking pictures! Collections of original shots can be saved, made into collages, and used for other creative projects.

Source

You will need:

Challenge your child to find and photograph objects of a certain color or points of interest. He can choose the theme for his pictures and make his own collection of photos. To get you started, here are six topics for photo finds.

1. Colors . The child chooses a color or color combination and takes pictures of interesting objects of the same color that come across to him.

2. Nature . Plants, animals, water, sand, clay, puddles – the list is endless. Let the child capture all the most beautiful things in nature.

3. Places . Just take a closer look at the most familiar things: buildings, sidewalks, hills, villages, schools, playgrounds, auto repair shops, supermarkets, banks… Is it possible to photograph all this in an original way? Maybe from close range or far away?

4. Friends . It can be people or four-legged friends. Invite your young photographer to take some pictures of your friends in unusual situations and try to capture their actions, movements, facial expressions.

5. Toddlers . Babies and baby animals are the perfect subject for photography: they sleep, play and move in a completely different way than adults! Encourage your child to take pictures of babies or baby animals in the yard, at the zoo, or in the countryside.

6. Funny photo . Can your young photographer catch strangers (and acquaintances) or your pet in funny situations? Or take a picture of you laughing heartily? (Maybe your photographer wants to collect a whole collection of pictures of people laughing and smiling.)

Unfamiliar familiar tales

This is a very fun and useful exercise for developing the imagination.

Resource

You will need:

Paper and pencil (or computer and printer)

We choose one of the classic fairy tale plots and come up with a new denouement! We write it down or tell a new story aloud.

Classic fairy tales to remake:

Snow White

Wolf and Fox

Ugly duckling

Geese-swans

Cinderella

Puss in Boots

Beauty and the Beast

Little Red Riding Hood

The Princess and the Pea

Sleeping Beauty

Three Bears

The Three Little Pigs

The Frog Princess

Cardboard Robot

Gather the supplies and let your child feel like an innovator robot builder! Robots can be painted in different colors, painted with unusual patterns, and even give them different facial expressions.

Source

You will need:

Various sizes of cardboard boxes (small, medium and large)

Various types of tape and tape – plastic tape, packing tape, transparent tape

Scissors

Possible, but optional: toilet paper rolls, plastic bottles, plastic cups, bottle caps, egg cartons, markers, glue, fluffy wire

This is a co-creation project: make your own cardboard robot from the suggested materials. (Older children can work on their own.)

The project is complex and involves trial and error, but it helps children learn how to find optimal solutions and put parts together in the most efficient way.

Keep a positive attitude, remember that the main thing in any business is the pleasure of the process itself, and be ready to help correct small design flaws.

How the classes go

In the Wunderkind children’s club, learning activities alternate with games. Classes are held in several stages so that the kids switch their attention and do not lose interest.

1. First lesson

Duration: 20-30 minutes. Children perform the tasks of the teacher in the classroom. At the same time, attention is retained by changing the types of activities, visibility and game moments. All this time, the teacher also changes the position of the children. Some of the tasks are performed sitting on the carpet, the other part – sitting on the chairs, and something can be done even while standing or in motion. This keeps your child’s posture and makes it easier for the baby to maintain attention.

2. First recess

Duration: 3-5 minutes. A small “break”: the children go to rest in the playroom, where they can ride down the slide, play with soft toys, chat with each other.

3. Second lesson

Duration: 20-30 minutes. Children with a teacher go to the study room and continue the lesson.

4. Second break

Duration: 3-5 minutes. The second short break, during which the child has the opportunity to play.

5. Third lesson

Duration: 20-30 minutes. The last stage of the lessons is similar to the first two lessons. In total, it turns out 3 lessons and 2 breaks.

I have two children. Ilya is already 14 years old and Nastya is 9years. Ilya began attending the Wunderkind studio at the age of four, Nastya at two and a half.

Voroshilova Zlata

Hello, I’m Voroshilova Zlata’s mother. Send a photo of my daughter. We have many certificates, but they are all in the portfolio at school.

Yurkin Dmitry

During this time, they studied not only writing, reading, geometric shapes, but also touched on the history of art.

Kids club or homeschooling?

Some parents believe that classes in child development centers do not bring benefits and that home schooling will bring the same result. They are right only if the mother or father knows the methods of preschool education, has experience in early development and has an idea of how to arouse interest in the child. Otherwise, there is a risk that the child will be inferior to the peers with whom the teachers worked.

In addition, classes must be held regularly, and not every parent has such an opportunity. As a result, homework takes place once every two weeks, as a result of which the information received is forgotten, and it is difficult for the child to get involved in the learning process.

Teachers of the children’s club “Prodigy” exclude these problems. We try to unite children with equal opportunities in one group, which allows us to carefully reveal the full potential of the child without damaging his self-esteem.

How to homeschool a 9 year old

View a demo of our lessons!

So you are homeschooling a 9 year old. Congratulations! You are embarking on an epic adventure full of difficult choices, important milestones and overall success. Chances are you’ve landed on this page because you’re curious about what homeschooling might be like for your nine-year-old, what other nine-year-olds might be learning, and what homeschooling activities might include for nine-year-olds. The following information is for comparison only, but keep in mind that your child is unique and complex and this information should be considered in the context of your child’s specific development.

What should a 9-year-old child learn?

Have you ever looked at that bright yellow bus driving down the street and wondered what kids your age were doing when they got to class? In traditional education, nine-year-olds learn a wide range of new information. Usually you should ask about the age of nine:

Creating multimedia projects on a computer

Using root words and context clues to identify new words

Using output to understand what they are reading

Interaction of organisms with the environment

Local and state governments

Myth, legend, fantasy and adventure writing

When it comes to math, it’s important that students learn math facts as early as possible. Time4MathFacts is a fun and engaging way for your 9 year old to gain the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in math.

How to Start Homeschooling a 9-Year-Old

When you begin your research on how to homeschool a 9-year-old, you’ll want to start with state homeschooling laws. Many states have certain subjects that they require from homeschool families in their teaching. But beyond that, homeschooling gives you the opportunity to truly tailor your child’s learning to your personal homeschooling style.

When planning your year of homeschooling, there are a few steps you need to take to make sure you cover all of your basics.

Step 1. If you haven’t already done so, take some time to understand your child’s preferred learning style. This will help you with everything from choosing the best homeschooling program to getting your student involved in their own learning.

Step 2: Create a homeschooling budget and be sure to include extra lessons such as home visits, athletics, and extracurricular activities.

Step 3. Will your homeschool student work in fourth grade? Find out what subjects and topics are typically taught in fourth grade homeschooling.

Step 4. Think about how you want to plan your day at home. Remember that you are no longer bound by the constraints of the traditional school schedule. Your study time may be determined by your work schedule(s), the time of day your child is most attentive and ready to learn, and how your curriculum is structured.

Step 5: Start learning fun together!

What should a 9 year old’s curriculum look like?

As they show their need for independence, your nine year old can push their boundaries and your buttons this year of homeschooling. But their desire to become a leader in their lives should not be something negative. This could be a good year to try out an online homeschooling program. Online programs have the advantage of allowing the child to work independently while keeping parents informed of their child’s progress.

When choosing a curriculum for your 9-year-old, you’ll want to find a program (or combination of programs) that:

Time4Learning makes it easy to incorporate online learning games for 9-year-olds into homeschooling. Time4Learning’s lessons are multimedia, interactive, and fun, and allow kids to get excited about their day at home.

Homeschooling Tips for a 9 Year Old

Your 9 year old may surprise you this year. They are able to handle increasingly complex tasks and projects at school, so don’t be afraid to challenge them. Understanding what motivates your child can go a long way in helping him reach his educational potential. Try to incorporate their current interests and curiosities into your homeschooling plan, then watch them thrive!

Other homeschooling ideas for 9 year olds you might want to consider:

Homeschoolers don’t need to study every day every day. Some homeschoolers focus on one subject per day, some do certain subjects on certain days, and some take a block scheduling approach with different subjects at different times of the year.

Include fun art projects in your child’s lessons. They can chalk a mural on the sidewalk, create sculpted clay sculptures, collect stones and paint them, or recreate a famous masterpiece.

Children who find it difficult to concentrate for long periods of time can be helped by breaking up the homeschooling period into 15-minute chunks. Between breaks, the child can play outside, have fun with an educational computer game, or relax for a few minutes.

Encourage your child to keep a diary and write down their thoughts (hopes, dreams, fears), things they are grateful for, poems, etc. They will practice their writing skills, giving them the opportunity to express themselves.

Planning lessons for your 9 year old can be as hard or as easy as you want. Some homeschooling parents find they need to plan almost every detail of their day or week of homeschooling, while other parents may write down some of the common things they want to cover and let the flow of the day dictate how it goes. lessons.

Encourage your child to help others whenever possible by offering to shovel leaves/shovel snow for neighbors, help clean up the neighborhood/beach, write letters to members of the military or nursing home, etc.

Give your nine-year-old child as much participation as possible in his home schooling. The more choice they have about how, where and what to study, the more responsibility (and fun!) they will take on in their own education.

The 17 Best Online Classes for Kids 2020 | Strategist

With the end of the school year approaching and many summer camps closed due to ongoing coronavirus concerns, many parents don’t know what to do with their children. They are also exhausted (and rightly so) and not overly excited about the idea of swapping the role of an unprepared homeschool teacher for a counselor in a quarantine camp. But there is hope. Like everything these days, from haircuts to bat mitzvahs, you can find tons of virtual options to replace just about any kid’s summer event. They may not be able to attend in-person gymnastics classes with ten other kids, but they can practice their beam exercises live with a certified instructor. And if you’re looking to help your kids brush up on their math or reading skills, there are plenty of professional development programs offering private lessons and online classes for kids of all ages, including plenty of free ones. We’ve talked to education experts about the best online the classrooms and types of learning that children need most right now.

Dr. Laura Phillips, clinical neuropsychologist at the Institute for Child Mind Learning and Development, notes that with school closures and the shift to distance learning, children are even more at risk of dropping out of school during the summer. To support them, she offers to do some academic work every day. “Younger elementary school parents might consider doing 15 to 20 minutes a day of reading, writing, and math,” says Phillips, noting that 30 minutes for each of these core subjects is good for middle and high school kids.

Khan Academy is a non-profit organization that offers free online courses for preschoolers throughout high school. Your four-year-old can get help with writing, or your junior can catch up on AP Chem. For these younger kids, the Khan Academy Kids app guide uses a friendly cartoon bear named Cody to guide them through early learning core subjects with a focus on creativity and social emotional skills. Megan Fitzgerald, former Principal of School , veteran educator and co-founder of Tinkergarten, an educational resource dedicated to learning in nature, uses Khan Academy Kids with her own children, saying that when they spend time in front of a screen, she wants it to be really good.

ABC Mouse is an easy-to-use online learning universe for kids ages 2-13. For $60, you and up to three children get annual access to hundreds of early learning activities throughout the year. There are games, e-books, sing-alongs, printouts, and even a progress tracker. It’s all designed to be easy and fun for kids, with age-appropriate step-by-step learning paths curated by teachers and education experts.

Imagine that your 10-year-old son wants to start learning Spanish and your 14-year-old daughter wants to try her hand at writing plays, but you only have a certain amount of free time to take them to class per week. Outschool allows you to fit both of these classes into your schedule without wasting time on the road. Since they already had an online lesson model before school closures and social distancing, Outschool stopped the system. Lessons for ages 3 to 18 start as low as $5 and can be taken as optional or weekly courses. And right now they are offering many popular classes for free due to COVID-19.

Fitzgerald and her children are also fans of mini-lessons of mysterious science. Mystery Science is an online membership-based science and science lesson library primarily intended for grades 5-5 teachers to use in their classrooms. However, due to school closures, they now offer a curated list of their most popular classes, including biodiversity and meteorology studies, which are free to use for everyone.

The

Scholastic’s Learn at Home program offers free four-week lesson plans for children in preschool through middle school age. Each week there are daily lessons for each class, compiled from Scholastic’s extensive library of books, videos and games. Lessons begin with movement exercises that help children prepare for learning through reading, writing prompts, drawing, and practicing critical thinking.

The National Museum of Mathematics hosts a host of spring and summer programs, from virtual tours and free family Fridays to online classes for students. In many cases, classes are paid. Whether you have an aspiring fifth grade statistician or a puzzle-addicted kindergartener, there is sure to be something for you.

Caitlin Meister, founder of the Greer Meister Group, a private tutoring and counseling practice in Brooklyn, began offering extra small group classes after noticing how much distance learning was lacking in the school aspect of the community. She says that “children’s academic success often depends on the child’s feeling that they belong to them and that their voice is heard and respected in the academic environment. According to her, groups of three or four children interacting with a teacher using Zoom provide the sense of community is much greater than large groups. These small groups are often made up of children who are friends or classmates, which helps them reconnect with their peers. Meister also offers free classes for the children of frontline health workers and says this isn’t just for doctors and nurses. “We are liberal in how we define frontline healthcare workers. If someone works as a cleaner at a hospital or does a hospital food service, I think that’s an equally important role,” she says.

Another way parents can help their kids learn this summer is Smarten Up. In addition to private lessons and exam preparation, Smarten Up offers small group workshops on subjects ranging from basic writing skills and word problems to yoga and origami. Or, you can enroll your child in week-long summer classes for elementary, middle, or high school children.

Mel Science is a subscription-based education service, similar to KiwiCo, MontiKids and Nido Box we wrote about earlier, for kids who love science experiments. With every subscription, you also get access to a library of online science webinars (which they made free due to the coronavirus) led by real scientists who guide your kids through hands-on lessons in chemistry, physics or life sciences. Children get the opportunity to interact and ask questions in a group setting. Some webinars require materials included in one of the Mel Science kits; others can be done with household goods.

“One of the really unfortunate consequences of moving to distance learning is that it takes away a lot of fun from the learning process,” says Meister. She says kids learn best when they explore what they’re passionate about, even if it’s ice cream. She says the summer holidays are a great opportunity for kids to do things they didn’t have time or opportunity to do during the traditional school year. Both Phillips and Meister encourage project-based learning and point out how learning about things like cooking or skateboard history can teach science and math to kids.

Created by James Beard Award-winning food writer and former executive editor of Saveur as a culinary social club for teens and teens in Park Slope, Brooklyn, Dynamite Shop has turned its in-person cooking classes online. Young chefs aged 7 to 15 can join one of two afternoon afternoon classes (depending on their time zone) where they learn how to cook a hearty family meal. The spring semester has already begun, but additional classes are available and a new schedule will be announced soon.

In these online classes, children learn to play a musical instrument by writing their own songs. Lessons are available for children ages 3 to 18, in small groups or as private one-on-one lessons, and include lyric writing, song structure, rhythm, and learning on their chosen instrument.

If they love making mud pies or watching bugs in the wild, Tinkergarten’s online offer is a great way to keep them busy. Fitzgerald and her husband founded Tinkergarten as a free resource to help families get outside and take advantage of the early learning opportunities nature has to offer. Now, with social distancing, they offer weekly live streaming sessions online where kids and families can follow their nature activities such as building a bird feeder, planting seeds, or making paper from scratch. There are even ideas on how to bring nature into indoors for families with limited access to outdoor space.

If your child is crazy about slime, you can support their passion by enrolling in one of the Sloam Institute’s online slime making courses. For $20, they’ll get a list of ingredients, an hour-long lesson taught by a Zoom expert, and a follow-up video so they can make their own slime over and over again.

If you’d rather browse through many different courses to see what sparks your kids’ imaginations, Sawyer is your one stop shop. They run a ton of direct enrollment, semester or summer classes, from hip hop and yoga for toddlers to programming and foreign languages taught by instructors from all over the country.

Phillips tells us that many of the physical aspects of school have been lost with distance learning. Things like moving from the circle to their seats and moving from class to the cafeteria for recess are an essential part of their daily education. Phillips. So adding some regular exercise to their summer schedule will help them manage stress and prepare for learning.

Chances are your kids have already switched to the GoNoodle dance video or yoga at school. Movement and mindfulness videos are used by millions of educators across the country. But they also offer free weekly activity roundups for kids on their site, including one with special guests like the Harlem Globetrotters who will teach them balance and coordination.

Meister recommends Industrial Gymnastics, which makes lessons for kids as accessible as possible in the form of free videos for kids from babies to 8 years old. Meister not only gets your kids moving and helps them practice somersaults and backbends, but he says they’re one of the few gyms that offer non-gender-friendly classes. “Gymnastics can be challenging for non-gender-conforming kids” because it’s such a gendered sport. But this gym has done a really amazing job of fixing that by making all the kids feel turned on,” she says.

Like Sawyer or Outschool, Activity Hero is a one-stop shop for online classes from hundreds of different teachers and schools across the country. In addition to art and academic classes, they also offer a huge selection of sports and movement activities from beginner tae kwon do and soccer to virtual ballet and aerial circus lessons.

The 7 Best Online English Lessons for Kids in 2021 [Apps & Courses]

English is one of the most valuable gifts you can give your child. Learning a language as a child is much easier than as an adult, and for it is possible to get many awards. English speakers often earn more, have access to excellent universities, and have more travel opportunities. In short, learning English as a child will help you succeed later in life.

Online classes are a great way to help your child learn English from home without the extra cost or stress of logistical issues. Here are 5 reasons why online lessons are the best choice, along with some basic tips for choosing the best apps, websites, and courses.

We have online tutors in over 50 languages.

Preply is one of the leading educational platforms offering 1 on 1 lessons with certified teachers via exclusive video chat.

5 Benefits of Online English Lessons

More and more parents are choosing to “send” their children to online English lessons rather than traditional language schools. Here are five compelling reasons to take the plunge!

Convenient

If you send your child to a language school, you may have to reschedule some of your limited free time. car throughout the lesson. Raising a child is immensely difficult – English lessons should not be an additional stress factor!

It’s also easy to forget that a school day can be exhausting for children. If you wear them on a trip to a language school at the end of the day, they may start to resent learning English.

The convenience of online lessons is great for kids and parents alike. Let your tired kids study at home in pajamas with light snacks, and of course they’ll be happier. While they work on a nearby computer, you can cook dinner, do chores around the house, or relax on the couch. A win-win!

Makes one-on-one learning affordable

Another big benefit of online learning? With sites like Preply, one-on-one learning is easily accessible and cost-effective. In traditional language schools, children share the teacher’s attention with other students. In one-on-one lessons, students receive the undivided attention of their mentor.

This is wonderful for several reasons. First, your child will have much more practice in speaking English than in class. There will be no students to talk to in their own language. Second, the lesson progresses at its own pace. If they miss something, the tutor will definitely work on it until they understand. Thirdly, children – especially small ones – really like it when adults give them undivided attention! Many of our little students really want to spend time with their online tutors. The feeling of being “seen” and supported makes learning English so much more enjoyable!

It’s cost-effective

It goes without saying that online English lessons are usually cheaper than in-person lessons. A subscription to a good learning app can cost anywhere from $10 to $40 a month, which is the price of an hour or two at a language school. There are also plenty of free resources available online!

Some parents fear that such a low price means a lower quality education. But if you do your research and choose your tools wisely, this is not necessary! Preply, for example, offers one-on-one English classes for all budgets. Enter your ideal price per hour into our search engine and we’ll show you teachers who charge what you can pay.

It’s more fun

One of the challenges of parenting in the 21st century is taking your child off the Internet before bed! Many children are inseparable with tablets, phones and computers in the family. Thanks to online English lessons, their love of screen time will be very useful!

There are many free apps and programs available online that make learning English a game. Your child will enjoy these activities much more than traditional activities. Many of our online English teachers even put children’s vocabulary games as “homework” because they know that learning is more effective when it’s fun!

Very flexible

If you send your child to traditional language classes, you will have to work on someone else’s schedule. Online English classes are much more flexible. If your child is learning with the app, they can attend “lessons” spontaneously, anytime they need some worthwhile entertainment.

Even the busiest family will find time for online lessons with Preply. Is your child very awake at 6:30 AM (yup!) but very sleepy after a long day at school? Thanks to the different time zones, you can schedule classes as early as possible if it suits you! Is your son too young to focus on hour-long lessons? Have shorter sessions! Has your daughter caught a cold? Cancel any lesson with four or more hours’ notice and receive a full refund. This is a tutoring session designed for real families.

The 7 Best Online English Lessons for Kids: Tutoring, Courses & Apps

1.

Preply

We may be biased, but we think Preply is by far the best online English course for kids. Many online courses and apps rely on self-motivation. Online learning is much better for short periods of time! A friendly tutor can keep your child busy for an entire hour, which language apps, courses or games can’t do.

Preply offers all the live practice, personalized feedback and human interaction of traditional language classes at an affordable price. You can build Preply lessons into your weekly routine if you want, but if life gets in the way, they’re flexible too. It really is the best of both!

Search our database of child tutors and find someone your child will love.

2.

Duolingo

If you keep hearing “Mom, can I play on your phone?” then maybe it’s time to download Duolingo! Duolingo is the world’s most downloaded educational app for one reason: it makes language learning a game. With its friendly owl design and easy-to-use interface, it’s the right way to teach kids English vocabulary.

While you can’t expect your child to play this “class” for hours, Duolingo is a good way to keep them entertained and learn English on the go.

3. British Council: Learn English Kids

If you have learned English online on your own, then you are probably familiar with the British Council website and their database of free learning resources. exercises for children to improve their knowledge of English. The website is a little old fashioned, but it has a lot of very useful material to help you give your child English lessons.

They also have a fantastic YouTube channel with videos teaching English nursery rhymes, stories and fun songs. If your child enjoys being read to before bed, this could be a way to integrate learning English into their daily routine! For very young kids – ages 2 to 6 – Timmy’s Learning Time series is amazing and has fans all over the world.

4. Fredisalearns

Looking for a structured online course for your child? Check out Fredisalearns! It has a set of exercises for children who have never learned English before, and another for those who speak at an intermediate level. Sample lessons are free, but regular users must purchase a membership. At $40 for six months, it’s an economical solution if it’s right for you and your baby.

5. Lingokids

Lingokids is an award-winning educational app for kids ages 2-8. It’s colorful and modern, with repetitive characters that kids look forward to every time they play. One of the benefits of this app is that parents are encouraged to help their child in the lessons, making learning more family oriented.

The basic subscription is free and gives you access to 3 games per day. However, if your child really likes it, the paid plan isn’t too expensive either.

6. NovaKid

NovaKid is a structured language program for children aged 2 to 12. Parents buy lessons and the child works on the learning material every week with the help of a personal tutor.

Unlike Preply, parents cannot choose tutors for their child or look for those who offer lessons within their budget. Once agreed, the class schedule is also not as flexible as Preply. However, the principle of one-on-one language learning via video chat is very effective!

7. Marta says

Okay, we got scammed here! It’s more of a TV show than an English class. Everyone knows someone who claims to have learned English by watching Friends, so we thought why not kids try this method too?

Martha Speaks is a very sweet series. It follows the adventures of Martha, a dog who eats alphabet soup and suddenly becomes able to speak! The dialogue is intended for children aged 6 to 10 years. Martha is still learning English, so new words are introduced with a fun and helpful introduction. She is an all-American dog, so your child will probably learn something new about US culture from this show too. Episodes are 25 minutes long, many of them are available on Youtube.

Closing thoughts

Hosting online English lessons for your child is a responsible and generous step. In our opinion, there are three main categories of online classes to choose from: apps and websites designed to be used by your child alone, courses for you and your child to take together, and online tutoring services such as Preply. that allow your child to learn from an expert.

All three of them have their pros and cons, but in general, children do most of the work under adult supervision. By taking several courses with your child or, even better, by investing in an experienced, kind mentor for him, you will make a great contribution into his future — and secure the adult attention that all children crave!

Frequently asked questions about online English lessons for children

My 9 year old is not good at reading. He is assisted by a special education teacher at school, but is still at least two grades behind. What can we do at home to help him improve his reading skills?

Question:

My 9 year old has trouble reading. He is assisted by a special education teacher at school, but is still at least two grades behind. What can we do at home to help him improve his reading skills?

Answer:

Some students can’t read, but there are many things you can do at home with your child to improve their reading skills. The Reading is Fundamental website has an excellent list of 20 ways to encourage parents to read, and the Reading website Rockets has a robust parent strategy section. You can find useful suggestions on both of these sites.
There are also a number of free games and activities online that can help inspire readers who are struggling or resisting. Depending on your son’s reading level and maturity, some of these websites may seem too small, so it’s important that you give him a variety of options and see what he likes best. A good resource to help you get started is Tutorial reading with multimedia materials. This article discusses the various ways in which multimedia tools can be used to support learning to read, and provides a list of resources that offer various websites and games to help children develop their reading skills.
Starfall has a collection of online books and activities for different reading levels and ages. Students can hear words read aloud and read at their own pace. The section I’m reading might be the most appropriate for your son. Sylvan Learning has a free website called Book Adventure that can also motivate your son. Students read books, take a short quiz and earn points. The points can then be redeemed for prizes (books, games, etc. ). Book Adventure also has a page for parents with suggestions for encouraging reading, entertainment, and recognizing reading difficulties.
The game format can be a safe way to practice reading. If your son enjoys the game or wants to know what’s next, he may be more motivated to read. PBS has a great selection of educational games and activities for students. The PBS Kids Cyberchase program is for older elementary and middle school students. Although not a reading game, students can read a significant amount of text.

How to choose circles and sections

And so, having picked up the child under her arm, the effervescent mother is taking him from music to English, from choreography to drawing. We’ll sleep on the subway, have lunch from a thermos in the corridor, take a walk along the road from tennis to origami … All relatives join in a crazy race to transport the baby to and from classes, prepare for various performances and competitions, make manuals and costumes.

Of course, you really want to be in time everywhere and everywhere, to invest in your baby as much as possible, but still, when choosing circles and sections, you should listen to the voice of common sense and the opinion of the baby himself.

It is better not to take your child anywhere until the age of three. Now there are many developing groups for the smallest, but, as a rule, they do not offer anything other than finger games, rhythm and drawing. Sometimes this “gentleman’s set” is supplemented by learning to read Zaitsev’s cubes. You can successfully do all this at home, and the road and the noisy company of new acquaintances will only tire the baby and distract him from classes. In addition, in the studio, in addition to knowledge, you will probably receive a whole bunch of viruses and childhood diseases as a “free application”.

At the age of three or four, a child can already be enrolled in one or two clubs. But first, consider whether you can do something on your own. If dad is a master of sports in chess, it hardly makes sense to waste time and effort and drag the child to the section. Yes, and English with a grandmother will go no worse than with someone else’s aunt, provided, of course, that the grandmother is ready to study systematically, and the grandson perceives her as a teacher.

The road to the circle should not take more time than the classes themselves. Best if you can get there on foot. If you do not have the opportunity to take the baby by car, try to get to the place of employment without a change and do not have to wait for transport for a long time. Never travel with children during peak hours. You should not go to mugs more than two, maximum three times a week. Classes should be held at a convenient time for the baby, not to disturb the regime of his day.

You shouldn’t go to the so-called “harmonious development studios”, where a child is taught several subjects at once (as a rule, a foreign language, speech development, music, drawing). Classes in such groups are built on the principle of school, with desks, lessons, calls, often even with homework. All this, of course, is absolutely unacceptable for preschoolers, especially younger ones. In addition, there is absolutely no guarantee that all teachers will like your child equally, and you will have to pay for everything at once, and the program, as a rule, is not much different from kindergarten, so the game is not worth the candle.

Talk to your child about what he would like to do. Take him to the nearest children’s art house or cultural center for an open day, let him choose which clubs he likes. Even if his choice does not meet your expectations, do not rush to argue: maybe a living corner will really suit your child more than ballroom dancing. In the end, if the kid made a mistake, you can always leave the circle.

Be sure to get to know the teacher personally. First of all, it should be a kind, charming person who sincerely loves children. In addition, the teacher must be a high-class professional. It’s not even about having a special diploma, but about real mastery of the subject, the ability to sensibly and cheerfully teach it to children, to infect them with love for it. Ask permission to attend classes. A good teacher who has nothing to be ashamed of will not refuse you this. Well, if he refuses, this alone should alert you. In the classroom, first of all, pay attention to the atmosphere in the classroom. The circle is not a kindergarten or a school, and the relationship between children and teachers should be less formal, more relaxed and spontaneous, but not familiar. Classes with preschoolers should take place in a playful way.

Naturally, a timid, shy toddler should be allowed to come with his parents until he settles in. Pay attention to the state in which the children leave after classes, are they overexcited, are they depressed? If the teacher raises his voice to the children, is overly fond of contests and competitions, in general, just if at least something in his behavior alerted you, it’s better to look for another place for your baby. A mistake can cost too much: the child will stop trusting adults, refuse to go to any classes, give up an interesting business that he could love.

Even if in your dreams you already imagine your child on the Olympic podium or on the stage of the Bolshoi Theatre, do not rush to send him to a sports or ballet school. The system of classes in such schools requires a very rapid development of professional skills. If the baby is not among the leaders, he will feel like a loser and, most likely, after a while will lose all interest in classes. Well, if the child really turns out to have outstanding abilities, more and more new achievements will be required of him, turning the baby into a narrow professional too early.

It would be much more useful for the child’s physical and mental health to choose clubs where children are not expected to become champions and laureates. In this article we will not talk about those circles and sections that were often mentioned in other materials. Let’s dwell on what usually remains “behind the scenes”.

Sports

If you want your child to play sports, it is best to take him to the pool. Children’s subscriptions are quite inexpensive, and the health benefits of swimming are greater than from any other sport (load on all muscle groups, hardening, development of coordination of movements). Perhaps the best and most modern of the Moscow pools is the “Seagull”. Children are accepted here from the age of three, and if the baby is scared, you can buy a subscription for yourself and at first go to classes with the baby. The Frog is located right next to the adult pool, so you can keep an eye on your child at all times. The undoubted advantage is that this is an outdoor pool, which means that the baby will breathe air during classes, and not chlorine vapors. So that the baby has time to adapt, it is better to start classes in the summer or early autumn. Girls usually really like water aerobics and synchronized swimming.

Aerobics classes will bring great benefits to the baby. Intense movements to music will develop not only muscles and coordination of movements, but also a sense of rhythm. There are aerobics groups for children in almost any children’s art house. Many adult fitness centers also have classes for the little ones.

Don’t forget about classic sports. Both boys and girls tend to enjoy figure skating very much. There is an excellent figure skating school in the new Silver sports complex on Glagoleva Street. Children are accepted here from the age of four. Parents of boys should not be upset that this is “not a manly sport.” Over time, a boy who is good at skating will be gladly accepted into the hockey or skating section. Great for kids and athletics. This truly royal sport harmoniously develops all muscle groups, increases endurance, teaches you to control the whole body. At the same time, it is much less traumatic than, for example, gymnastics. There are athletics sections in almost any stadium or in a children’s art house

All team sports are also very good, but they are either very expensive, like tennis, or they start playing them already at school age.

Children of preschool age should not engage in sports where there is a high risk of injury: diving, acrobatics, gymnastics.

Drawing

In addition to the traditional “basement studios” run by single teachers and children’s art clubs, there is another type of art studio that probably brings the greatest benefit to children. These are studios attached to large art museums. Here, children are not so much taught to draw as to perceive and feel art.

Children are immersed in the enchanting atmosphere of a museum from a very young age (they are accepted here from the age of four). Experienced art teachers introduce them to the permanent exposition of the museum and exhibitions, in an accessible form for kids talk about different styles, genres and schools, gradually shaping their taste, attitude. Going to the museum from the category of outlandish events becomes a way of life for a child. Well, after the tour, the children return to a cozy studio and, inspired by what they see, draw themselves.

As a rule, in museum art studios, teachers do not put pressure on children so much, they do not dictate to them what and how to draw, because here they do not aim to train professional artists. These are schools of art lovers, where enlightened dilettantes are brought up, people who understand art and are able to express themselves in it. Although it is often from here that real, not notorious artists come out, alien to the stereotypes and clichés characteristic of graduates of art schools. There are excellent studios at the Tretyakov Gallery and the Pushkin Museums.

Theatrical skills

Theater studios have somehow not been popular lately. But this is a place where a child can reveal himself as a multifaceted creative personality, learn to fully communicate, move and speak beautifully.

Everything here is like in a real theatre: stage speech and movement are taught to children, acting and pantomime, ancient dances and acrobatics are taught. In the theater studio, memory and a sense of rhythm develop, children learn to work in a group, draw scenery and make props, and sew costumes. As a rule, children are taken in an organized manner to the best performances in professional theaters, they are also introduced to the work of other children’s groups. Among other things, in the theater studios, children are instilled with a love for good literature, because literary works are staged: plays, fables, dramatizations of fairy tales. Many people get so attached to the drama club that they continue to go there even during their school years, often until graduation.

Puppet theater is very useful for the timid and shy. Hiding behind a screen, the baby will feel more protected, and classes with gloves and puppets develop coordination and fine motor skills well. There is a wonderful puppet studio in the Palace of Children’s Creativity on Sparrow Hills, it is led by a wonderful teacher, Elena Plotnikova. There is also a wonderful drama studio, one of the oldest in Moscow: the Theater of Young Muscovites.

Technical mugs

Circles of children’s technical creativity are also not very popular with parents, but in vain. True, they don’t take very small ones here, but a five-six-year-old boy will enjoy going to an aviation or ship modeling circle, doing woodcarving.

In our life, there is almost no place for children to do manual labor, a rare dad is able to teach his sons how to handle a hammer and a drill, and in such a circle a boy will not only master the simplest tools, but also learn how to design, work with drawings, which will be useful to him, even if he and will not become an engineer. The discovery that you can create something yourself, turn a dead, useless piece of wood or piece of iron into a useful and beautiful object, seems like a real miracle to a small child.

Such activities are especially useful for boys who live without fathers. A dexterous, skillful, enthusiastic teacher will become a standard of masculinity for your son, a worthy example to follow. And you can find such a circle in any children’s art house or club. And believe me, classes in it will bring your little boy no less benefit than the now fashionable tennis or horseback riding.

Applied crafts

Your daughter will thank you more than once if you send her to a circle where they teach applied crafts: embroidery, macrame, beading, weaving. Exclusive things are always valuable, and even if your daughter does not have to earn her living in this way, she can always make a unique decoration as a gift, decorate her house in an original way.

Among other things, such activities develop taste, spatial thinking, and fine motor skills. In the House of Scientific and Technical Creativity for Children and Youth on Donskaya there is a whole school of applied arts, classes in which are taught by experienced art teachers. There are such circles in ordinary children’s art houses, and in district clubs.

Living corners

If your child strives to bring home all the homeless dogs and is eager to provide first aid to half-dead chicks, if all the window sills in the apartment are planted with mysterious plants, the earth creaks on the floor, and the biosphere of the swamp is skillfully recreated in a basin under the sink, if, finally , the kid just dreams of a little animal, but you can’t get it in any way – write your naturalist into a living corner.

The child will not only enjoy communication with various representatives of flora and fauna, but also learn about their life and habits, understand that an animal is not just fun, but a huge responsibility, learn to take care of their pets. As a rule, amazing people work in such circles, those who were called naturalists in the old days. These are not just biologists-zoologists, these are people who are in love with nature, who often traveled a lot and saw a lot of interesting things, real enthusiasts who infect their little students with their ardor.

Such a wonderful teacher works, for example, in a living corner of the House of Children’s Art on Miusy; and at the Moscow Zoo there is a wonderful Club of Young Friends of the Zoo. Yes, and next to your house, perhaps there is such a place, a reserve of warmth and love for our smaller brothers.

***

Parents often get angry when their children move from circle to circle, “scatter”, “rush from side to side”. But when, if not in the preschool years, the child will be able to experiment and look for something that may become a favorite for life. And if it doesn’t? – ask anxious mothers – time will be lost !

The happiness lies in the fact that you still have more than enough time, and any business that the kid will do with enthusiasm, at least for a year, at least for three months, will bring him invaluable benefits. And clubs are needed not at all for early career guidance or preparation for school, but so that the child can be creative, make his dreams come true, meet like-minded friends, and communicate with wise and talented adults.
