Every parent wants his baby to be developed and curious from childhood. What is not being done to achieve this goal: countless books are bought, book for the smallest, toys and coloring books. Now finding tasks for a 4-5 year old child is very easy, and in our article only the best exercises aimed at improving logical thinking, developing speech and general developmental tasks are collected.
Logic tasks are one of the most important for children.
Logical thinking helps the child his whole life. Thanks to well-developed logic, the baby does not fall into children's "trouble" and does not commit acts for which he can then be punished. Logic exercises - the first thing you need to start the development of a child 4-5 years old.
The tasks may be different, the most popular were and still are puzzles. For instance:
1. Gray shaggy beast,
Runs on four legs
Loves milk, believe me
And he does everything stealthily.
Who is it?
2. This animal is not loved,
Forever afraid, screaming and catching.
Nobody will buy it in the store,
It is called kittens dinner.
Who do you think this is?
3. Little bird
In a gray jacket
Not a bullfinch, not a titmouse,
Cats chase him, and he collects the crumbs.
It is very important to communicate with the child during the execution of tasks, prompt, ask questions: "Do you know who this is? What are your thoughts?". Developing tasks for children 4-5 years old should not be very difficult. At the initial stages, you can show pictures with the answer after reading the riddle.
The second type of logical tasks is finding a pair, for example, a cat - a kitten, a cow -? (calf, is solved by the principle: mother and child); shirt - tie, pants -? (belt, is solved by the principle: what the thing is tied from above); chicken - an egg, a bee -? (honey, is decided by the principle: what the animal gives to man). This series can go on indefinitely, even the parent himself can create similar tasks for the baby.
Assignments for a child of 4-5 years old such as jigsaw puzzles are another effective and interesting way to help the child learn logic.
We develop speech
Tasks for a child 4-5 years old should also include a set of speech therapy exercises. However, first you need to find out the pronunciation of which sounds are violated, and only then select the tasks.
The most effective way to work out missing or unpronounceable sounds is to pronounce the words for the parent. For each sound, 3 words (the problem letter should be at the beginning, middle, end).
[C] - bag, paddle, kvass;
[H] - hare, goat, cart;
[] - step, pedestrian, reed;
[F] - giraffe, fire, crew;
[] - goldfinch, lizard, ivy;
[L] - fox, shawl, crocodile;
[P] - cancer, muzzle, ball.
Due to the presence of sounds in both strong and weak positions, the baby will understand that the word is not always pronounced as it is spelled. You can also work out each sound separately, starting with the deaf and ending with voiced, complex ones such as [P].
Parents themselves can make speech therapy tasks. For children 4-5 years old, themes of animals and cartoons are perfect. Do not forget that the exercise is not a boring lesson in which the child will fall asleep, but a fun lesson that helps him deliver his speech.
Overall development
At the age of 4-5 years, the child should already know the main animals: a wolf, a fox, a bear, a hare, a squirrel, a cat, a dog, etc. The baby is still struggling, but still needs to know the months. First, you can show him association cards, for example, in December - a Christmas tree, New Year's Eve, snow melts in March, snowdrops open, the sun shines in June, students go on vacation, and in September students, on the contrary, go to school. Such uncomplicated tasks for a child of 4-5 years old at first will seem difficult, but he only learns, he learns the world, therefore, in case of failure, he should not be scolded or punished - after several classes he will learn everything.
Young children do not always know how to tie shoelaces, do not distinguish between right and left, do not know the days of the week, etc.
Here again, graphic pictures showing a particular process will help. These cards can be printed or drawn with your child. Days of the week, for example, depicted in the form of a tree with branches-days; in order to learn to distinguish between right and left, draw little people who look either to the right or left (you can come up with mobile search games, for example, turn right, go straight, turn left, and at the end of the baby there should be a surprise).
The importance of having a baby
A variety of tasks for a child of 4-5 years old are extremely important, because it is at this age that he learns the world, discovers new things and studies what is useful to him throughout his life. The task of parents is to help their child achieve development results and instill in him a love of knowledge.
