The peasant needs to be transported across the river wolf, goat and cabbage. But the boat is such that only a peasant can fit in it, and with him either one wolf, or one goat, or one cabbage. But if you leave the wolf with the goat, then the wolf will eat the goat, and if you leave the goat with the cabbage, then the goat will eat the cabbage. How did the peasant transport his cargo?

Solution 1.: It is clear that we have to start with a goat. The peasant, having transported the goat, returns and takes the wolf, which he transports to the other shore, where he leaves him, but he takes and carries the goat back to the first shore. Here he leaves her and transports the cabbage to the wolf. Then, returning, he carries a goat, and the crossing ends happily. Solution 2: First, the farmer again transports a goat. But the second one can take the cabbage, take it to the other side, leave it there and return the goat to the first bank. Then transport the wolf to the other side, return for the goat and again take it to the other side.

From the first nine sources, everyone can take dead water, but source No. 10 is located in Koshchei's cave, into which no one except Koshchei himself can get.

The taste and color of dead water is no different from ordinary water, however, if a person drinks from any source, he will die.

If he drinks not the seventh poison, but the ninth, only poison No. 10 can help him. And if he immediately drinks the tenth poison, then nothing will help him.

Ivan the Fool challenged Koshchei to a duel. The terms of the duel were as follows: each brings a mug of liquid with him and gives it to his opponent to drink. Koschei was delighted: “I will give poison number 10, and Ivan the Fool will not be able to escape! And I myself will drink the poison that Ivanushka the Fool will bring me, I will drink it with my tenth and be saved!

On the appointed day, both opponents met at the agreed place. They honestly exchanged mugs and drank what was in them. It turned out that Koschei died, but Ivan the Fool remained alive! How did it happen?

Ivanushka gave Kashchei plain water, and it turned out that Kashchei drank poison from the 10th spring. Before the duel, Ivanushka himself drank poison from any one source and it turned out that he washed down the poison with Kashcheev 10, and as a result, this poison was neutralized ..

As you know, the Earth rotates around its axis, and quite quickly (in just 24 hours, each point on the earth's equator travels approximately 40,000 km - a path equal to the length of the equator). So, instead of going somewhere by train or flying by plane, or sailing on a ship, it is enough for us to rise high above the earth in a balloon or airship and stay there motionless for some time. During this time, the Earth will turn to us with another part of its surface and it will only be necessary to descend to the right place. Is this reasoning correct? If not, what is wrong with it?

This way of travel is, of course, unsuitable. The atmosphere, attracted by the Earth, rotates with it. And even if the atmosphere were motionless, then, having risen into it from the rotating Earth, we would continue the earth's movement by inertia for some time. In addition, if the atmosphere were motionless, and the Earth would continue to rotate in it (and fast enough: see the condition of the problem), then in this case the greatest hurricane would not stop raging on Earth, which would make impossible not only any travel but also human life itself.

274. Is it possible to boil water on an open flame in a paper box?

The question of the problem, at first glance, seems very strange, because if you hold paper over a fire, it will definitely catch fire. But the fact is that the boiling point of water is much lower than the ignition temperature of paper. Since the heat from the flame is taken away by the boiling water, the paper cannot reach the required temperature and therefore does not ignite. It is only necessary that the paper is thick enough, otherwise the water will simply tear it and pour out onto the flame. A cardboard box is quite suitable for boiling water. The same explanation underlies such a phenomenon as a fireproof piece of paper tightly wound around a metal rod (or steel nail) and brought into the flame of a candle. The rod will take the heat of the fire, preventing the paper from heating up to the desired temperature and catching fire.

275. In one class, the students were divided into two groups. Some had to always tell only the truth, while others - only a lie. All students in the class wrote an essay on a free topic, which had to end with the phrase: "Everything written here is true" or "Everything written here is a lie." There were 17 truth-tellers and 18 liars in the class. How many essays turned out with a statement about the veracity of what was written?

All the truth-seekers rightly claimed that everything they wrote was true, but all the liars falsely claimed that everything they wrote was true. Thus, all 35 essays contained a statement about the veracity of what was written.

Correct answer

278. A bottle with a cork costs 1 p. 10 k. A bottle is more expensive than a cork by 1 p. How much is the bottle and how much is the cork?

At first glance, it may seem that a bottle costs 1 ruble, and a cork 10 kopecks, but then a bottle is 90 kopecks more expensive than a cork, and not 1 ruble, as by convention. In fact, a bottle costs 1 r. 05 k., and the cork costs 5 k.

Correct answer

279. Katya lives on the fourth floor, and Olya lives on the second. Rising to the fourth floor, Katya overcomes 60 steps. How many steps does Olya need to climb to get to the second floor?

At first glance, it may seem that Olya walks 30 steps - half as many as Katya, since she lives two times lower than her. Actually it is not. When Katya goes up to the fourth floor, she overcomes 3 flights of stairs between floors. This means that there are 20 steps between two floors: 60: 3 = 20. Olya climbs from the first floor to the second, therefore, she overcomes 20 steps.

Correct answer

280. How to pour exactly half of a mug, ladle, pan and any other dish of regular cylindrical shape, filled to the brim with water, without using any measuring instruments?

Any dish of the correct cylindrical shape, when viewed from the side, is a rectangle. As you know, the diagonal of a rectangle divides it into two equal parts. Similarly, a cylinder is bisected by an ellipse. It is necessary to drain water from a cylindrical dish filled with water until the surface of the water on one side reaches the corner of the dish, where its bottom meets the wall, and on the other side, the edge of the dish through which it is poured. In this case, exactly half of the water will remain in the dishes:

Correct answer

281. Three hens lay three eggs in three days. How many eggs will 12 hens lay in 12 days?

You can immediately answer that 12 hens will lay 12 eggs in 12 days. However, it is not. If three hens lay three eggs in three days, then one hen lays one egg in the same three days. Therefore, in 12 days she will lay: 12: 3 = 4 eggs. If there are 12 hens, then in 12 days they will lay: 12 4 = 48 eggs.

Correct answer

282. Name two numbers in which the number of digits is equal to the number of letters that make up the name of each of these numbers.

283. "I guarantee," said the salesman in the pet store, "that this parrot will repeat every word it hears." A delighted buyer bought a miracle bird, but when he came home, he found that the parrot was as mute as a fish. However, the seller did not lie. How is this possible? (The task is a joke.)

The parrot can indeed repeat every word it hears, but it is deaf and does not hear a single word.

Correct answer

284. There is a candle and a kerosene lamp in the room. What will you light first when you enter this room in the evening?

Of course, a match, because without it you cannot light a candle or a kerosene lamp. The question of the task is ambiguous, because it can be understood either as a choice between a candle and a kerosene lamp, or as a sequence in lighting something (first a match, then - from it - everything else).

285. Half of half of a number is equal to half. What is this number?

Correct answer

286. Over time, man will definitely visit Mars. Sasha Ivanov is a man. Consequently, Sasha Ivanov will eventually visit Mars. Is this reasoning correct? If not, what is wrong with it?

The reasoning is wrong. It is not necessary that Sasha Ivanov eventually visit Mars. The external correctness of this reasoning is created due to the use of one word ("man") in it in two different senses: in the broad (abstract representative of humanity) and in the narrow (concrete, given, this particular person).

Correct answer

287. It is often said that one must be born a composer, or an artist, or a writer, or a scientist. Is this true? Is it really necessary to be born as a composer (artist, writer, scientist)? (The task is a joke.)

Of course, a composer, as well as an artist, writer or scientist, must be born, because if a person is not born, then he will not be able to compose music, draw pictures, write novels or make scientific discoveries. This joke problem is based on the ambiguity of the question: "Do you really have to be born?" This question can be understood literally: is it necessary to be born in order to engage in any type of activity; and also this question can be understood in a figurative sense: is the talent of a composer (artist, writer, scientist) innate, given by nature, or is it acquired during life by hard work.

Correct answer

288. In order to see, it is not at all necessary to have eyes. We see without the right eye. We also see without the left. And since we have no other eyes besides the left and right eyes, it turns out that neither eye is necessary for vision. Is this statement correct? If not, what is wrong with it?

The reasoning is, of course, wrong. Its external correctness is based on the almost imperceptible exclusion of one more option, which in this reasoning also had to be considered. This is an option when not a single eye sees. It was he who was omitted: “Without the right eye we see, without the left too, which means that the eyes are not necessary for vision.” The correct statement should be: “Without the right eye, we see, without the left we also see, but without two together we cannot see, which means that we see either with one eye, or the other, or two together, but we cannot see without eyes, which, thus necessary for vision."

Correct answer

289. The parrot has lived less than 100 years and can only answer yes and no questions. How many questions does he need to ask to find out his age?

At first glance, it may seem that a parrot can be asked up to 99 questions. In fact, you can get by with a much smaller number of questions. Let's ask him like this: "Are you over 50 years old?" If he answers "yes", then his age is from 51 to 99 years; if he answers “no”, then he is from 1 year to 50 years old. The number of options for his age after the first question is halved. The next similar question: “Are you more (you can ask - less) 25 years old?”, “Are you more (less than) 75 years old?” (depending on the answer to the first question) reduces the number of options by four times, etc. As a result, the parrot needs to be asked only 7 questions.

Correct answer

290. One man who fell into captivity tells the following: “My dungeon was in the upper part of the castle. After many days of effort, I managed to break one of the bars in the narrow window. It was possible to crawl through the resulting hole, but the distance to the ground was too great to simply jump down. In the corner of the dungeon, I found a rope forgotten by someone. However, it turned out to be too short to be able to go down it. Then I remembered how one wise man lengthened a blanket too short for him, cutting off part of it from below and sewing it on top. So I hurried to split the rope in half and re-tie the two resulting parts. Then it became long enough, and I safely went down it. How did the narrator manage to do this?

The narrator divided the rope not across, as it most likely might seem, but along it, making two ropes of the same length out of it. When he tied the two pieces together, the rope became twice as long as it was at first.

Entertaining tasks for children and their parents

Target: development of the child's abilities
Tasks:
- to interest the child in solving non-standard problems;
- develop imaginative and logical thinking;
- to offer material for leisure activities in the family.

Working with children, I have always tried to develop creative non-standard thinking in them. For this purpose, problems are well suited for the solution of which it is not enough to be able to add or subtract numbers or be able to count to one hundred. Finding such tricky puzzles is half the battle, arousing children's interest in solving them is more difficult. It is difficult because the classes are strictly regulated in time, they are not designed to solve non-standard tasks. I still manage to do something, but I always want more.

Last school year, at a parent meeting in the preparatory group, I proposed an option: at the end of the week, each child will receive an envelope with a task. This problem must be solved within a week and the answer should be sent to me in an envelope. This is a voluntary matter, if you want, participate - if you don't want, it's your choice. Of course, everyone wanted to, but after two months, the number of those who wanted to participate decreased, because often the parents (!) themselves did not understand how to solve this or that problem. And it's very sad. Only one girl reached the finish line, which was quite predictable.

So, the simplest task that I offered the children in the classroom was this: “How to divide 3 apples in the basket among three girls so that each girl gets 1 apple and one apple remains in the basket?” Children immediately begin to offer 2 apples to cut, but this does not correspond to the condition of the problem, which says that each girl should receive a whole apple. Then I pick up a basket with 3 apples and ask one of the children to fulfill the condition of the task - to share the apples. At this moment, an insight occurs - we take one apple along with the basket!

1. Misha returned from fishing satisfied.
- How many fish did you catch? his comrades asked.
- I will not say. But he ate both.
How many fish did Misha catch?
This is a very easy task, but when the child does not hear the usual numbers, he does not understand at first how to solve it.

2. Marina had 7 sweets. She gave 2 sweets to her sister Katya, who also had sweets. After that, the sisters had equally divided candies. Think about how many sweets Katya had at first?
It is also one of the simplest tasks, but in a lesson 2-3 people can solve it at once, the rest do not have time to think of it on their own.

3. How many squares do you need to take to glue the cube, sticking 1 square on each side?

4. 3 people were waiting for the train for 3 hours. How long did each one wait?

5. Three fishermen eat three fish in three days. In how many days will five fishermen eat five fish?
Solution: If 3 fishermen eat 3 fish in 3 days, then 1 fisherman eats 1 fish in 3 days. Therefore, 5 fishermen will eat 5 fish in the same 3 days, and not in 5, as both children and adults often answer.

6. 2 hens laid 2 eggs in 2 days. How many eggs will 4 hens lay in 4 days.
Solution: 2 hens lay 2 eggs in 2 days, so 1 hen can lay 1 egg in 2 days. 1 hen will lay 2 eggs in 4 days and 4 hens will lay 8 eggs in 4 days.
Answer: 8 eggs.

7. One Winnie the Pooh eats 1 jar of honey in 1 hour. How many Winnie the Poohs will eat 5 jars of honey in 5 hours?
Solution: in 1 hour Winnie eats 1 jar of honey, therefore, in 2 hours he will eat 2 jars, in 3 - 3 jars, etc.
Answer: one Winnie the Pooh will eat 5 cans of honey in 5 hours.

8. Vanya lives in a 12-storey building, on the 9th floor, counting from the top. What floor does Vanya live on?
Solution: If you offer a preschooler to solve this problem, it is best to ask him to draw a 12-story building and count the floors in reverse order. If the child is already in school, the solution is available to him in his mind without relying on the drawing. It turns out, if you count from the bottom up, after the 9th floor there will be three more floors up: the tenth, eleventh, twelfth. If you count from top to bottom, then after the ninth floor, where Vanya lives, there will be three more: the third, the second, the first. Therefore, Vanya lives on the 4th floor.

9. Zabyvalka and Putalka bought several pairs of boots in a shoe store, and the total number of boots turned out to be a single digit. When the dwarves returned home, Putalka began to divide the purchases. He did it so cunningly that at the end of the division he had 8 more boots than his friend. How many boots did the surprised Zabyvalka get?

Solution: to solve this problem, the child must know what the words "pair" and "single digit" mean. Dwarves couldn't buy 10 boots because 10 is a two-digit number. They couldn't buy 9 boots because shoes are always sold in pairs. If they bought 8 boots, then Putalka got all these boots, and Zabyvalka got nothing.

10. The pig weighs 2 kg and half a pig. How much does a pig weigh?
Solution: The pig weighs 2 kg and half a pig. We understand that the weight of the two halves is equal to the weight of the pig, if one half weighs 2 kg, then the whole pig weighs 4 kg.

11. The elevator rises to the third floor in 6 seconds. In how many seconds will it take him to the fifth floor?
Solution: in 6 seconds, the elevator overcomes two spans - from the first to the second floor and from the second to the third. Therefore, one flight of the elevator passes in 3 seconds. To get to the fifth floor, you need to drive 4 flights. This will take 12 seconds.

12. Muddler goes to the cage with the tiger. Every time he takes 2 steps forward, the tiger growls and the dwarf steps back 1 step. How long will it take him to reach the cage if there are 7 steps to it, and Putalka takes 1 step in 1 second?
Solution: When solving this problem, you should use a drawing from which it will be clear that moving 2 steps forward and 1 step back, Putalka spends 3 seconds to get 1 step closer to the cage with the tiger. But having approached 5 steps in 15 seconds, he takes the last steps in 2 seconds and ends up at the cage.
Answer: in 17 seconds, Putalka will reach the cage.

13. Once upon a time there was a Serpent Gorynych. He was very picky about food. His right head didn't like fruit and couldn't stand cutlets. His left head couldn't stand pears. For lunch, pears, ice cream and cutlets were served. What will each head of Gorynych choose for dinner?
Solution: the right head will choose ice cream, the left - cutlets, the middle head, as the most picky, will get pears.

14. There are 4 coins in two wallets, and in one wallet there are twice as many coins as in the other. How is this possible?
Solution: To make this happen, we lay out the coins two in each wallet, and then we put one into the other. It turns out that it now has 4 coins, which is 2 times more than in another wallet.

15. A small military detachment approached the river. The bridge is broken and the river is deep. How to be? Suddenly, the officer noticed two boys playing in a boat by the river. The boat is so small that only one soldier or only two boys can cross it - no more! However, all the soldiers crossed the river on this boat. How did they manage to do it?
Solution: first, both boys cross in the boat. One of them remains on the other side, and the second boy returns and gives the boat to one of the soldiers. He crosses the river. The boy, waiting for him on the shore, takes the boat and swims to the rest. Then the cycle repeats until all the soldiers have crossed.
16.
The task is childish, but adults find it difficult to find a solution. Stereotypes interfere.
Hint: how do animals give voice? It turns out that the cow - "mu", the pig - "oink", the goat - "me", the cuckoo - "cuckoo", the dog - "woof", the cat - "meow", the rooster - "crow", and the donkey - "ia".

Literature.
I.B. Rogozhkina "An easy way to interest a child and develop his abilities." Smart tasks for kids from 5 to 9 years old.

Hello dear readers!

All parents can already be congratulated on the almost coming Day of Knowledge - September 1. That is, the happy time of the year for all the children of schoolchildren - the summer holidays, alas, is over.

Days loaded with lessons begin, and it seems not the time to write about entertainment, but there are still reasons to write an article.

Ahead of us is the academic year in which there will be entrance, holidays, and, unfortunately, sick days, and just the need for a break from schoolwork. After all, not just studying ... 😉 Therefore, it's time to think about what to do when the children are bored at home and what to do with the children at home.

I'll start with a general piece of good advice I read in one of the psychological magazines intended for "alarmed", always busy moms who are unable to distribute their time between work, household chores and activities with a child and constantly feel guilty about this.

How wisely it was said there - do not think that good mothers constantly and inseparably play with the child. No. You must know:

If during the day you give the child at least 15 to 30 minutes of your time, but devote it fully, to nothing else but the child, without being distracted, then this will be enough for the child to feel that his mother loves him.

Well, and do not forget in the remaining time to exchange a couple of phrases with the baby, drive for the mess in the room, and for the sweets eaten before dinner. Everything, as it should be for a real mother 🙂

After all, our task is not so much even to entertain the child, but to show him how many different activities there are, how interesting it is to do them, and what, in my opinion, is very important, to teach the child to do some part of the time on his own, and not to languish with boredom Or spend hours on the internet.

This list is suitable for classes with children of primary and secondary school age, but it may well suit younger and older children, although when compiling it I was guided by the question of what to do when children of 10 years old are bored at home, in particular, a girl who stays at home alone, because my daughter just the same age) So,

1. Board games

They were the main attraction of this summer. I had no idea how much the board game industry has come a long way in recent years.

During the next purchase of books in the online store, I accidentally noticed what beautiful and varied games it offered. I approached the choice carefully, in which the Igroved online store helped me a lot, on the site of which you can not only buy games, but also watch videos with detailed information on how to play them.

As a result, we bought the board game "Carcassonne", which allows you to play together with your daughter and a larger company.

Among the variety of board games, you can choose a game that meets all your needs: the age of the child, his interests, the number of expected participants.

If you know that your family members at their leisure will be happy to “buy new lands”, trade on the stock exchanges, or make the longest words, then you can safely buy a game designed for a large number of participants. If only mother “loves” to play them, then there are games for two participants, and in some the child will be able to play on his own.

Pros: Board games are fun.

You can "officially" enjoy a child's game, I'm not talking about a child.

Cons: The biggest disadvantage is that board games are expensive.

You can get acquainted with Carcassonne and other board games in more detail in the article.

2. Puzzles

On the one hand, this is also a board game, on the other hand, it is so peculiar that I want to highlight it as a separate item.

Helping your child to pick up pieces of the picture will have a good time, but if you are busy, then the child can handle it on his own. Invite him to collect at least part of the picture, be sure to admire the result.

It is very good if there are puzzles of different levels of complexity at home: easy, collecting which the child will always feel like a superhero, and more difficult, as an option for “assembly” with the help of adults.

Advice from personal experience - do not buy puzzles with a large number of pieces, 300 or more, which depict animals. The beautiful mane of a lion and the fluffy fur of cute dogs will give you a nervous tic in just 10 minutes of selection. Even the endless blue sky is somehow easier to collect.

Pros: Few activities compare to jigsaw puzzles in terms of benefits for fine motor skills.

In addition, they develop perseverance and spatial imagination.

"Easy" puzzles the child will be able to fold independently.

Cons: During the next cleaning of the apartment, you have a chance to periodically “enjoy” the characteristic sound of puzzles tapping in the pipe of the vacuum cleaner))

3. Reading books

There are two options: the child reads with pleasure; The child refuses to read.

Everything is clear with the first one, if you have a reader at home, then there will be time not only for homework, but also for your own hobbies, it is enough to periodically update the children's library.

Everything else is not so simple, there are methods for teaching a child to read, but you have to work hard to achieve a result. Well, being a parent is not only fun 😉

Pros: There is no point in listing them. In short - useful, interesting, accessible (libraries now have almost everything).

Cons: If the child loves to read, you will have to select books to force him to do his homework or go to the store.

If the child does not like to read, you will have to develop a strategy to attract him to reading. A good "initial" option would be books based on cartoons or "biography" of your favorite toy characters. We had one of them.

4. Checkers, chess, dominoes, backgammon, lotto.

Unfortunately, I can only play checkers, and also lotto :)), but if you are a master of all other types of games, then this is just wonderful.

Pros: Very, very useful and developing activity.

Cons: Since these are paired games, they are only suitable for activities with a child if you have a considerable amount of time to play with him.

5. Games with cards, solitaire, tricks

About eleven years ago, children and playing with cards were considered incompatible concepts, since such games were considered gambling. In principle, it is such now, but nevertheless, now the passions have subsided, and against the backdrop of casinos and "one-armed bandits" cards look like innocent entertainment.

Moreover, in addition to the games themselves, there are solitaire games from which you can find out if your wish will come true. And tricks that are always interesting.

Pros: Develop memory and attention.

Knowing a certain number of tricks, a child at leisure can “shine” in the company of his peers.

Cons: The child must be taught all the tricks and games you know, and if you forgot or did not know them, you will have to learn it yourself.

The cards have not had a very good reputation since Soviet times.

6. Educational activities - coloring, drawings, plasticine

A great job that doesn't require a lot of investment.

I myself loved to paint as a child, and my youngest daughter sculpts well from plasticine, and she manages to sculpt her products well, oh, very tiny. I wanted to show you my favorite “works of art”, but I hid it somewhere that I couldn’t find it, they are small 🙂

Therefore, I had to steal their “breakfast” from the table at the dolls - scrambled eggs, a sandwich and a cake 😉 To show the “grandness” of crafts, I put a small 11-cm salt bowl next to it.

Pros: Of course, develops creativity.

If you are busy, you can safely go about your business, your participation is not needed, all that is required of you is just to praise the end result.

Cons: You will have to teach your child to do everything carefully, and clean up after yourself after class, if you can do it, there will be no problems with developmental activities. (At first, our entire floor was covered in multi-colored sticky blots of plasticine, which my husband had to pick off from his socks 😉).

7. Useful games

How many there are now! No, there were a lot of them before, but thanks to moms and dads, inventors and the media that tell us about these inventions, they have become simply unimaginable. This point deserves a separate article.

As an example, I will cite Galina Kuzmina's blog "Merry Science". That's where the inexhaustible fantasy))

Pros: Just a lot. And interesting, and development, well, just comprehensive.

Cons: Happiness, if you are a born organizer and experimenter, if not, you will have to learn this, which, admittedly, is not easy.

8. Needlework

A wonderful activity, especially if mom or dad is fond of it, who can teach the child. And there are a lot of handmade options: knitting, embroidery, beading, weaving from newspapers, wood carving, batik ... and this is only a small part.

Pros: These skills will always come in handy.

Cons: You will have to spend a long and tedious briefing that the needles should always be in the needle case, the knitting needles in the covers, and the threads and pieces of fabric in special bags and boxes. And after a session of needlework, find all this in different angles and put it in place.

9. Pen and paper games

These are games that are played most often during lessons, because this is the best time for sea battle and tic-tac-toe 😉 But playing them at home, you will also get a lot of fun, and the child will train well so that later, at school, beat your classmates.

Pros: Do not require any material investments.

Cons: I don't even know what...

10. Stickers

Oddly enough, but they can be singled out as a separate item as a full-fledged lesson.

It seems to me that the production of stickers is just on a large scale. Firstly, on sale you can find a sticker of any hero of any cartoon. During my daughter's passion for the Winx fairies, my eyes and head just rippled from all these Flores, Muses and Techn (names of fairies), made based on all 120 episodes.

Secondly, stickers can be very interesting in terms of texture: glitter, voids with balls, volume, and many more various chips are added to them.

So that the child does not try to “update” the furniture with the help of Spider-Man or Gummi Bears, buy him a common notebook in which he will glue his favorite characters.

Pros: The child, snoring from effort, will be busy for a long time.

Cons: There is a chance to find stickers that unobtrusively decorate your documents or household utensils :)).

11. Useful activities - putting things in order after the game, washing doll clothes, cooking, etc.

As a child, girls love to wash doll clothes, sweep the floor and help their mother knead the dough, and the boys are happy to spoil the nails by hammering them, and sawing the planks, and they will also help to sculpt pies for their mother with enthusiasm. Here, the main thing is to allow.

But I have never heard of any of the children like to clean up after the game 🙂

Pros: Excellent development of skills needed in the future.

Often, children can really help you, most importantly, entrust a feasible task.

Cons: Well, here you all perfectly imagine ... spilled water, scattered flour, everything is smeared and turned upside down, but you have to endure ... The efficiency is too high 😉

12. Watch TV. Computer games

All our efforts come down to ensuring that the child spends as little time as possible near the TV screen and computer monitor, but we can’t get away from progress.

The only thing is to teach the child to skillfully use these benefits of civilization. Moreover, the child must be aware of popular films, cartoons and computer games, otherwise it may turn out to be a situation similar to what happened with the son of Yulia Menshova, which I mentioned in the article “Children on the Internet. Harm and benefit.

In situations where mom is really busy, cartoons and computer games are a lifesaver. The main thing is to help the child make the right choice, but, among the huge number of options, this will not be difficult to do.

We have a Disney channel connected at home, which almost always justifies the expectations placed on it. But to convince the child that old, but such beautiful and meaningful cartoon fairy tales are also very interesting, I fail, alas ...

Pros: Properly selected programs will help you learn a lot of new and useful things.

With a reasonable and metered choice of programs and games, the child gets a lot of pleasure.

Minuses: Basically one - how to get the child out of there.

I have listed our favorite pastimes, I hope they will help you at least a little when looking for an answer to the question of what to do when the children are bored at home, and maybe you will also tell me what else you can do with the children at home :))
