Every Russian person remembers how his mother and grandmother hummed different songs to him in childhood, told jokes, rhymes and made riddles about teeth, cheeks and nose, about animals and the world around them. It may seem that all this is just for fun, and the only goal was to distract the baby. But in fact, the wisdom of our ancestors, which came to us with minor changes, is much deeper and more serious.
Riddles as a pedagogical tool
Riddles about teeth for children - this is the main tool for educating the right attitude to oral hygiene. We all understand how important it is to monitor our own health from early childhood. But, perhaps, it is the teeth and the dentist that are the most unpleasant horror story for most children. Passing by the doctor’s office and listening to the same sound of a drill, almost every kid wants to immediately retire from there. Even if you came just for a visit. And if your little miracle sees a crying child at the exit from the dentist’s office, then all - you can go home.
That is why it is so important from an early age to convey to the child the need to monitor their teeth. Prevention is always the best method, and in this case also saves you money. Here, all teachers unanimously tell us to read poems, sing songs and make riddles about teeth, which are an effective way of education. After all, they make the child himself think of the correct answer.
