The role of toys in the life of your baby is difficult to overestimate. It is her own important role in the knowledge of the environment. Through the toy the kid studies the world: forms, colors, develops his tactile perceptions. Mankind came up with many "tricks" to meet the needs for the development of small crumbs. Recently, modern educational toys for a child of the first year of life have gained particular popularity. About them and talk.
To date, it has become fashionable to choose for the child is developing toys that help as early as possible to teach the baby an unknown and mysterious world. The modern industry offers a wide range of children's toys. This is, first of all, the toys of such popular manufacturing companies as Chicco, Tolo, Fisher-Price, Tiny Love, K's Kids and others.
Almost from the very birth of a crumb can be trained.
An excellent gift for the newborn will be a carousel-mobile - a mobile design with plastic or rag figures of animals or geometric figures. This first toy develops your child's vision, namely: stimulates visual concentration and tracing eye movements. In addition, this toy helps to develop and auditory perception of crumbs, thanks to the playback of the melody. Secure the mobile at a distance of 15-20 cm from the child's eyes. It is recommended to change toys every 4-5 days so that the baby gets acquainted with new objects.
The second useful toy for the newborn will serve as a developing mat. This multi-colored bright rug will help to stimulate development and growth of the child. On special racks of a rug the toys which, as well as in karuselke, can be periodically changed are suspended. The benefit of a mat for a mother is that it helps to find precious time for domestic cares while the kid is engrossed in staring at toys. But mothers-needlewomen can also save by sewing such a developing toy with their own hands. Cheap and exclusive!
From the second half of the life of the baby the choice of interactive toys becomes much wider.
Especially popular was a smart puppy from Fisher-Price. The age at which your baby can begin to play with this soft handsome, 6 months. But this does not mean that the child will take a toy and will play the way you expect. With each month the process of the game will change. Very good, when you together will sing songs, teaching to accompany your comments. A little later, thanks to the puppy, your baby will play games, sing songs, remember a lot of useful information: the alphabet, the names of body parts, colors, count to ten. Playing with a puppy, the kid develops a sense of rhythm, hearing, receives positive emotions. I recommend to hide the dog from time to time so as not to bother ...
In addition, in toy stores you can find various music phones, toys with light and sound effects. Useful will also be moving dogs or caterpillars, which from the touch begin to move, thereby developing a baby's crawling skill. And if such a dog still knows how to bark, play various melodies, sniff the track and call the baby with him, then the effect of such a toy will be stunning!
Popularity was also given to developing toys with sensory cubes. Sensory cubes are designed to develop the sensory organs of the baby: touch, sight and hearing, as well as develop design skills.
The second popular toy among friends of my parents is the magic pot-sorter Fisher-Price. Playing, the child tries to insert details into the holes of the pot. Thanks to this game, the child learns the shape of objects, learns to correlate the shape of the part with the shape of the hole. In addition, the pot "knows how" to sing songs, helps to study the score to five and the names of the main forms.
I will stop on interactive music books. Such unusual forms of book-toys teach the baby letters, numbers, shapes, colors and names of animals. Books contain colorful drawings and rhymes. And, by clicking on the buttons, you can hear the songs and conversations of the acting heroes. Great, really ?!
This is not the whole list of modern educational toys for a child of the first year of life. Visiting a specialized children's store, you can find a lot of funny "syllabus" for small baby. I note that you can buy everything from a wide range, having good incomes. Therefore, before buying a new toy, take an interest in the reviews about it and decide whether it is worth the big expenses.
Dear parents, do not forget the important and main truth that the parents are the best teachers for their children. Therefore, no matter how much you buy developing toys, none of them will replace your knowledge and experience. This is only a good and useful addition for the development of a smart erudite personality. And only in combination with you, parents, toys and fulfill their important mission - the early development of your crumbs in a cheerful cheerful atmosphere.
