Children are the flowers of our life. And the future of our children depends only on us. Parents and teachers have a great responsibility - to teach the child to be independent, sociable and, of course, a kind and sympathetic person. Our goal is to develop the child's mental and physical abilities. This can be facilitated by intellectual and educational games for children.
It's high time for adults to understand that educational games for preschoolers and children primary school- This is not just a fun pastime. While playing, the child not only gets a lot of positive emotions, but also gains experience communicating with peers, develops various abilities. Joint entertainment teaches children friendship and mutual assistance, and makes up for the lack of communication between peers.
The development of personality, self-control, early formation of intelligence, assimilation of knowledge, abilities and skills occurs during intellectual play indoors (learning letters and numbers in early development groups, riddles, board games, quizzes with a well-thought-out scenario). Kids up to school age and students under 7-10 years old will benefit from outdoor exercises in the yard, especially if their parents take part in this.
Research by psychologists around the world has long proven that a person who did not have the opportunity to communicate and have fun with other children as a child will not find it easy to find a common language with the world around him. The early development of many complexes and intellectual deficits are explained by the lack of communication between preschoolers and primary school children under 10 years of age with parents and peers.
Intellectual abilities grow through early exposure to concepts such as letters and numbers. Puzzles and riddles, board games and intellectual quizzes with an interesting scenario will undoubtedly captivate children 7-10 years old and preschoolers. Indoor exercises, as well as active entertainment, have a beneficial effect on intellectual growth and strengthening the immune system of children of preschool age and up to 10 years.
There are many educational games for preschool children and children from 7 to 10 years old. These can be quizzes, children's board and educational games, as well as outdoor activities.
Quizzes for younger students
Participation in quizzes makes a tangible contribution to the development of children’s abilities:
- Attention develops;
- non-standard thinking is developed;
- vocabulary increases;
- horizons expand.
Scenarios, topics and questions of quizzes for preschoolers and children of primary school age can be very diverse: about the world around us, about space, history, sports, plants, animals, books and literary characters. It could be team game or every man for himself. You can use popular programs from television screens.
To interest elementary school children in participating in the quiz, it’s worth thinking through its course down to the smallest detail.:
- exciting script;
- colorful design;
- interesting prizes;
- musical break.
It is important that the game is short-lived (from 30 to 60 minutes), since the child’s body quickly gets tired of the monotony.
Examples of questions for the quiz “About everything in the world”“:
- What device shows time? (watch).
- What month is the shortest in the year? (February).
- The most dangerous fish in the seas and oceans? (shark).
- All covered in thorns, but not a hedgehog? (cactus).
- What do thunder and lightning portend? (rain).
Questions and answers for the quiz “Krylov’s Fables”:
- How many fables did I. Krylov write? (about 200).
- On which tree was the crow sitting with a piece of cheese? (on spruce).
- Who sang red summer? (dragonfly).
- What were Cancer, Pike and Swan going to do? (to carry a cart).
- How many musicians are in the quartet? (four).
- Who do you think sings better than a donkey - a nightingale or a rooster? (rooster).
Logic test! 5 simple questions
Indoor games (in the classroom or at home)
The age-old question is what to do with kids during school breaks indoors? Or how can parents diversify the home leisure time of a preschooler and schoolchild under 10 years old when there is bad weather outside? Children under 6 years old can learn letters and numbers. Puzzles and board games will come to the rescue:
- Checkers and chess - teach schoolchildren to think logically and calculate actions several moves ahead;
- children's lotto or dominoes - develop logical thinking and fine motor skills, promote the study of letters and numbers;
- printed “walkers” – instill imagination, discipline and develop various abilities
- a game of “words” can captivate both adults and children: the driver names any noun, and each subsequent player names a word starting with the letter that ended the previous word.
In this way you can play “cities”, “fruits and vegetables”.
In the breaks between lessons they will be very useful and exciting for children of primary school age (7-10 years old) sedentary games indoors, intended for relaxing leisure and having a beneficial effect on the psyche:
- “Broken phone” - the children take turns saying the hidden word in their ear. The leader’s task is to ensure that this word reaches the trailing player unchanged, in its original form;
- “Spoiled Fax” - the rules are similar to “telephone”, only the players sit with their backs to each other and each draws an image on the player in front, which must reach the end of the chain without changes;
- “Associations” is a fun intellectual game that develops ingenuity and intelligence. Children are divided into two groups. One team thinks of a word, which the second team tries to guess while one of the players depicts it using movements and facial expressions;
- “Ring” - players sit in a row, cup their palms, and the leader quietly places a small object (coin or ring) in one of the participants. The chosen one needs to quickly run away from the other players so as not to be caught.
In a school or at home, children can play under the guidance of adults or independently.
Outdoor games
It's no secret that active games in the yard are useful for children. Fresh air and sun rays, so necessary to strengthen the immune system, are something that cannot be obtained in sufficient quantities indoors. Frequent colds are due to insufficiency physical development child. By playing outdoor games on the street, children of preschool and school age harden themselves, develop manual dexterity and learn to act cohesively, taking into account the interests of their comrades.
In the yard, children can play, for example, the following games:
- Hide and seek;
- tag;
- catch-up or “in kvacha”;
- “Cossacks-Robbers” is a fun team game full of adventures;
- “The sea is worried” - at the moment when the presenter finishes reading the poem, all the guys should freeze in the position in which they find themselves. The first one to move takes the place of the leader.
Fun educational games with a ball will appeal to everyone without exception - both parents and their children.:
- Volleyball;
- “bouncers”;
- “hot potato”;
- “edible-inedible” - the presenter throws a ball to each player in turn, while naming an object. The new leader is the one who caught and ate the “inedible”.
Riding on roller skates, a skateboard, a scooter or a bicycle will also be fun and beneficial for health and for improving physical abilities. And it’s better to do this together with parents - lack of communication with them has a bad effect on the child’s self-esteem.
Educational and educational games
It is a long-known fact that any information submitted to game form, is perceived and absorbed by children of any age much better than in school classes. Pupils kindergarten and primary school students may be interested in:
- Puzzles;
- puzzles;
- crosswords;
- labyrinths;
- confusion;
- “Adventure” games (with chips and dice).
While playing, a child gains many skills and abilities that will undoubtedly be useful to him in his studies, in communicating with friends, and in adult life:
- Logical reasoning;
- attention;
- memory;
- imagination;
- fine motor skills;
- attentiveness;
- observation;
- intelligence.
For schoolchildren and pupils senior group Kindergarten children are recommended to read educational literature that promotes the comprehensive development of thinking processes. Lack of information is one of the reasons for the inhibition of the growth of a child’s abilities.
The younger generation will also benefit from educational computer programs. With their help, learning letters, numbers, multiplication tables, foreign languages, grammar rules will turn into a fascinating and educational game. However, you should not get too carried away with virtual learning - long periods of studying at a computer indoors can be harmful to a child’s body.
Children's games for memory development
What memory is is a mirror reflection of experience and knowledge acquired earlier. To develop memory, there are many entertaining exercises, manuals and games with interesting scenarios.
- Exercise for training visual memory“Describe what you saw” - the child studies the illustration for half a minute, and then retells in detail what he remembers. After the story, show the picture again and point out the missing points.
- An exercise for training logical memory “Reversals” - the child says a word, and then spells it backwards. To begin with, it is recommended to use small words consisting of three or four letters.
- Memory development game “Memorize” - at least five players take part. The topic is discussed, for example: plants. The first player names a word, then the second repeats this word and names his own. And so on.
Reading various children's literature contributes to the development of verbal and logical memory. It is important to control that after reading a story or fairy tale, the child can retell the content of what he read as accurately as possible. This may not work the first time. But don’t despair - “patience and work will grind everything down”!
Start small - let your child, first, retell at least one paragraph. And then you can move upward. Just do not overload the child, so as not to discourage the desire for knowledge. A walk in the yard after intellectual exercises indoors will benefit children of any age - lack of fresh air has a detrimental effect on a growing body.
Many computer games for children of preschool age and up to 10 years are aimed at early development memory. But remember - the main thing is not to overdo it.
Conclusions
Memory, imagination, attentiveness, logical thinking and other indicators of development are human intellectual abilities. They need to be developed from early childhood to form a full-fledged personality - this is the main goal for parents.
Therefore, allow your child to “grow” and help him develop fully - learn letters and numbers with him, keep him busy with interesting things board games indoors, ask riddles, encourage communication with peers. Teach to distinguish bad from good.
Do not allow the weak and infirm to be offended. Set an example of good behavior in society. Involve your offspring in jointly cleaning the apartment or caring for the garden. Support all your child’s aspirations and endeavors.

HOST: See you again at our marathons!
During a long trip, in rainy weather, or in the countryside, away from toys, you can keep your child occupied with exciting and useful game. Intellectual games are good because they are accessible and develop the child. With their help, time will fly by unnoticed. And at the same time, they do not require cash costs or special preparation.
Direction of intellectual games
Intellectual games have enormous potential and allow you to develop:
- Memory. During the game, both involuntary and voluntary memory works - even preschool children will perfectly remember information presented in this form.
- Attention. In an interesting game, the child concentrates it as much as possible, trying not to lose sight of the smallest details.
- Thinking. By thinking about a complex but exciting problem, a student will be able to excellently train this skill and master solution algorithms for the future.
- Logic. Intellectual games are inextricably linked with logical thinking and allow you to instill its basics in children younger age and improve it with older students.
- Speech. A number of games, using the child’s speech, develop the articular apparatus and help to learn new grammatical structures.
The game can have its own specifics and be aimed at developing only one of these processes or train several skills. In today's article we will look at multitasking games. In addition to the above processes, they will also help develop imagination, creative thinking, fine motor skills, etc.
Principles of using intellectual games
When offering a game to your child, it is important to remember the following principles:
- The game should be interesting. Offer your child an exciting time, instill a spirit of competition in him and monitor his behavior during the game. If enthusiasm quickly dries up, it is better to change the task.
- The game should have an optimal level of difficulty. Too easy - it will not be able to attract the child’s attention for a long time; too complex - it can upset him, cause displeasure or resentment.
- The child needs support, help and praise. Be prepared for the fact that you yourself will have to rack your brains over the problem - the child should feel your interest and see your participation. Praise his successes, but do not over-praise, and reduce criticism to a minimum or remove it altogether.
Game "Monkey"
![](https://i1.wp.com/img.repetit.ru/blog/image_84704_01-06-2017_11-33-49_.jpg)
Being a monkey isn't always a bad thing!
What develops: attention, memory, fine motor skills, coordination of movements
The game begins with a short fairy tale: “Once upon a time there was a little monkey. And one day she became very bored. She was sitting at the table and was sad when a boy entered the room. The monkey hid under the table and began to watch. The boy went to the buffet and took the candy - the monkey also ran up to the buffet and took out the candy. The boy unfolded the piece of paper and the monkey unfolded it. The boy took a bite and the monkey took a bite. The boy smiled and so did she.”
Next, the adult offers the child (children) a game in which he himself becomes a boy from a fairy tale, and the child becomes a monkey. After this, the parent can show any actions (for example, assembling a model), and the child’s task is to quickly repeat them.
“What item was removed?”
What develops: attention, memory, logic
A set of any items is laid out in front of the child (the optimal number for elementary school children is 5-9). The student’s task is to carefully examine all the objects (for 30-50 seconds) and remember them. Then he turns away, and the adult removes one object. The child must determine which item was removed. If he is at a loss, then you can give a hint: “This object is red”, “It is round”, etc.
To develop logic, you can slightly change the conditions of the game. To guess the missing object, the child is given a number of logical clues: “It was lying behind the scissors, but in front of the pen,” “The object is larger than a notepad, but smaller than a book,” “It has four corners, but not a square,” etc.
"Chronological Sequence"
What develops: memory, attention, thinking, speech, logic
It is necessary to prepare several pictures based on the fairy tale. For example, for the fairy tale Kolobok, you can draw a grandfather and grandmother, a cheerful Kolobok, a hare, a wolf, etc. You can search for relevant images in books and the Internet.

The child is offered several pictures, for example, one shows a girl holding candy, the second shows a girl with an empty candy wrapper in her hands, and the third shows a crying girl. The student needs to compose a logical story based on these pictures. In this case, the events in the story should occur in the sequence in which the images were presented.
"Put it in the correct order"
What develops: attention, thinking, logic
The child needs to arrange objects in the correct sequence based on logical conditions. Example:

"Balloon Frame"
What develops: attention, thinking
Task: Imagine that you have 15 balls. 5 of them are yellow, 5 are blue, 5 are red. You need to arrange them in a triangular frame so that there are no balls of the same color nearby.
“Unravel the code and complete it”
What develops: memory, attention, thinking, logic
The child is presented with a series of images that are selected according to a certain principle. The task is to unravel this principle (code) and complete the series.
