The modern world is changing rapidly: new technologies appear, new professions emerge on the labor market, while old ones disappear into oblivion.
The ability to easily adapt to these changes turns a person into a true professional who will be able to leave his comfort zone, adapt to market demands and find applications for his skills in the most relevant industries.
That's why it's so important to work on developing this skill from childhood - if you want, of course. So that in the future he will get a decent job.
The best way to develop flexible thinking is to introduce variety into your child's daily life.
Homework in a new way
Encourage your son or daughter to try new ways to solve homework, such as doing math on paper or in their head instead of using a calculator.
Hand replacement
Ask your child to perform familiar actions with the other hand, such as brushing teeth or closing a door. Psychologists say that such experiments are interesting for children and, in addition, stimulate the work of both hemispheres of the brain.
Exercise "What if..."
Think of an unusual situation and ask your child to think about it a little. For example, you can ask him how events in the world will unfold if the Internet disappears.
Playing Sherlock Holmes
Take your child for a walk to a familiar place. Once you reach your destination, tell him that you are at a crime scene. You will need to come up with a backstory in advance and stock up on evidence - a scarf, a note, etc., which you need to place in the designated places. The child will have to solve the crime during the game. Thanks to this process, he develops attention to detail, learns to consider situations from different points of view and make informed conclusions.
