Every parent needs some time to rest and recharge their batteries to continue caring for their children.
At the same time, we want the child to constantly develop and acquire new skills.
Do you feel like it's impossible to find a balance between the needs of all family members?
Let me convince you otherwise: here are some ideas that will allow you to drink a cup of coffee, wash your hair or work in silence, while your child in the next room plays independently, develops his imagination and has an interesting time with himself.
Water coloring
This subject will interest children starting from 2-3 years of age. During work with water coloring, voluntary attention is trained, colors, shapes are studied, the world of animals, technology, nature is introduced - everything depends on what theme you have chosen.
You can paint not only with a brush or a special felt-tip pen, but also with your fingers, thereby developing tactile sensations.
Painting in the Ebru technique
Thanks to the ebru water painting kit, your child will “pump up” their creative abilities and motor skills. And that’s not all: such a pastime has a positive effect on the emotional background.
You can be sure that while drawing, your child will lose track of time and won’t even notice that you’re not around.
Game of blankets and pillows
You can diversify your child's leisure time by offering him to build a structure from blankets and pillows. Throw them on chairs, turn on a New Year's garland inside - and the magic tent is ready.
This simple game, which has many details, promotes the development of imagination and is very exciting for children.
Constructor
Another way to keep a fidget busy for a long time. When a child collects parts and gets closer to the intended goal step by step, he works on developing imaginative thinking, motor skills and perseverance.
Important: Since most construction sets involve small parts, do not leave your child unattended. You should be in the same space with him during the game, but you can do your own thing: read a book, listen to a podcast, etc.
