1. Teach the child to understand this world and how it is built, he should know what materials are natural and where they come from. If you live in an apartment and do not have a garden, the child will not acquire this knowledge automatically. You, as a parent, need to correct this and explain that concrete is artificial, that not all water comes from faucets or bottles.
2. Let the child play with natural material, feel it to the touch, in this way children will learn about the world. Accordingly, let her pluck a flower or a leaf from a bush on a walk, pick up a pebble...
3. Allow the baby to play with water, warm or cold, pouring from one vessel to another. Demonstrate a boat that stays on water and does not sink, how bubbles are formed from water, how water passes through a sieve or the palm of your hand.
4. Clay and earth will also allow the child to expand his outlook on the environment. The child will learn to add water to the clay and make it sticky. It's fun!
5. Offer the child to play with stones and leaves. Playing with these materials will not teach the basics of botany or geology, but will show that the world is filled with various textures, shapes, and objects.
6. Wooden toys and constructors will be indispensable in the child's learning of the world. They will help the child feel the warmth and energy of wood to the touch. A long game with constructors helps the child to develop attention and logical thinking. The child will be able to clearly formulate his thoughts, learn to work in a team, as well as plan work, respect peers and adults.
7. Do not limit the child to plastic toys that you buy in the store, give more opportunities to work with natural materials, thus you will expand the child's horizons, teach him to perceive the world from the inside.
Children will play with almost anything you offer them. Little inventors love to explore and experiment. That is why you, the parents, are entrusted with such a great responsibility — getting to know the world).
