Well, here it is, almost here, the New Year. Children were especially looking forward to this magical holiday.
How to please them so that not only the magical night, but also every day of the holidays will be remembered for a long time?
There are several interesting ideas, by implementing which you will give your children real New Year's miracles, and this means a sea of smiles and an ocean of joy.
Jar of Wishes
On New Year's Day, make a list with your child of all the things he or she is interested in doing.
Let your imagination run wild for as long as possible. As for the child, he will definitely try to name as many entertainments as possible.
Put all the options together – yours and your baby’s. Keep the ones that your little family member will definitely like.
Then we take sheets of colored paper, cut them into several parts, and write down one idea on each.
Then we roll them into tubes and throw them into a jar of a suitable volume. You can also put them in a transparent vase.
Then, every morning, we pull out (let the child do this, like a lucky ticket in a lottery) one piece of paper.
We read what is written on it and dedicate the day to the announced activity.
By the way, after the holidays you don't have to put away the wish jar, maybe there will be a few leaves left. You can take them out for the weekend, for example.
Cooking together
Let's cook a delicious dish together. For example, a signature family pie or cookies that can be decorated with icing.
A child can, for example, mix ingredients for a pie in a bowl.
Or, if he is a little older, he can cut out cookies using cookie cutters.
Even older children can cook on their own, which will delight them – after all, they have been entrusted with such a responsible and, most importantly, exciting job.
Parents, observing, can give advice, and they themselves will join the procedure if something goes wrong.
Costume dinner/tea party
The child's creative imagination will quickly express itself, there will be no holding back.
Experimenting with clothes that will help you become Cinderella or a Brave Knight will captivate the young members of the family.
They will feel like real fairy tale heroes, which, by the way, will stimulate the development of their potential talents.
The main thing is to agree in advance what clothes and cosmetics will be used.
You can use colored paper, cardboard, tinsel, multi-colored foam sponges (they make great noses).
Home quest
Turn your apartment into a fairytale castle with a magical object hidden inside.
This could be an hourglass, without which time can stop, and then the next day will never come.
Or this item can be used to select pirate treasures that need to be found quickly, otherwise they will turn into coals.
Prepare clues for your story - they will tell the young hero where to go at each stage and where to look for the next key.
You can make it more difficult: offer to solve simple problems so that the castle keeper will give you another piece of paper with a hint.
In addition, you can put on a home performance, walk outside near the New Year tree, make a snow woman, go sledding or skiing, etc.
