A game
The child begins to show interest in the environment from a very early age. So why not take advantage of this? Let the child be surrounded by objects of very different shapes, colors, with different tactile, sound, visual characteristics. Play with the child using these items, always pronouncing their names aloud and showing how these toys can be used.
Story
Walking with the baby, tell everything that you will see: birds, trees, flowers. Pay attention to how the weather changes, how the seasons change each other. Try to talk only about interesting news, because the boring and unnecessary information the kid simply will forget.
Your speech
When speaking with a child, do not distort speech. Pronounce the words correctly, clearly, intonationally highlighting important words. Ask more questions: "Do you think the sparrows are hungry?" Let's go and feed them. "
Do not try to convey information to the child through academic studies. Instead of saying: "I've told you a hundred times that nothing can be lifted up from the earth." It's better to explain why it can not be done: "Things are dirtier on the ground, they have a lot of harmful microbes, which can irritate the animal."
Reading
Read the child from birth. This is the enrichment of his vocabulary, and let it seem that he does not understand onnik, in fact, the baby's brain processes the information received. Parents who know foreign languages can read foreign books.
With older children it will be useful to discuss what has been read, to find out that the child has understood what lesson he took from the book.
Music
It has long been known that listening to beautiful music stimulates the creative activity. An older child can be given to a music group, but not for the purpose of educating a world-famous musician, but to activate other abilities: mathematical, linguistic.
Enthusiasm
Draw, sculpt, decorate ... Analyze that the child is most interested in and give this lesson more time. The main thing, do not interfere, then interest in the lesson will not go out quickly. And remember, it's not necessary to force a child to do things that are not interesting to him. Otherwise, all your lessons with the child will turn into frank mutual torture. If the child can not do something, do not insist, it is better to ease the task. And do not put any time when the assignment should be completed. Let 10minut child creates with interest, than 2 hours under torture.
Motion
Walk with the child, do exercises. During the movement of the child's brain is saturated with oxygen, which in turn leads to an increase in mental activity. If space allows in the apartment and financial possibilities, purchase a special children's corner with rings, turnstiles, stairs, which will become an indispensable assistant in the development of the child's physical abilities.
Always be near
Most importantly - participate in all the beginnings of the music. Support it, praise it. Let the child know that the parents are nearby, and that he has someone to turn to for help.
