Play is the nature of children, but also the most effective way to develop children's intelligence. Parent-child games can make children's observation, attention, memory, imagination, and thinking ability develop, and also can cultivate children's comprehensive quality, children in the game will not be afraid of frustration, are not tempted, and actively cooperate to solve problems. Early parent-child play with children is not only beneficial to the emotional exchange between parents and children, a close parent-child relationship but also has an important role in promoting the development of the child itself.

Play requires a certain environment so that children can play in their little world without fear or worry, and only by providing a suitable play environment can children give full play to their imagination and enrich the content of the game. Parents can also integrate a variety of learning activities with their children's games in the game environment, so that teaching is fun and teaching plays.

Games

So, how can parents use the existing conditions at home to set up a play environment for their children?

[Create a good mental environment

Children need a good physical environment for parent-child play, but they also need a warm, harmonious, democratic, and equal psychological environment. Many parents impose their own will on their children, and often raise excessive requirements for children in the game, forcing children to play games they do not like, such as loudly threatening, chastising, or amusing children as toys, and so on. This kind of so-called "game" will make children lose interest in the "game", and will not take the initiative to raise the desire to play the game.

Disney Myriad Homes remind parents that, when playing parent-child games with their young children, parents should be level-headed, only then will they have correct expectations of their children, so that they can play parent-child games scientifically.

[Open up a separate play area].

If there is plenty of room in the house, you can provide a playroom specifically for your child. There you can set up different play areas for your child, such as a natural area, family area, building area, book area, intellectual area, etc. Families without extra rooms can use a cloth to separate a play area in the corner of the child's bedroom or living room so that the child can play a variety of games in their little world.

[With suitable game props]

In different areas match the appropriate props, so that children play to feel more image. For example, we collect discarded boxes, cans, advertising paper, buttons, pens, tape recorders, etc. to give full play to the original functions of the materials and promote the development of children's creativity and hands-on skills. Faced with the waste of low-structure materials, children will sprout a thousand different whims, and the materials will become substitutes and manipulation tools in parent-child games, being made into home appliances, furniture, cars, and other works. This is both environmentally friendly and safe.

At the same time, the experts here at Disney's Wonderful Home remind parents that in the process of making materials for their babies, parents should incorporate as much as possible the emotional elements that their children are familiar with and have experienced to stimulate their children's desire to play and learn emotionally. For example.

1, the child has a pleasant emotional experience of people, things, objects, and situations directly migrate to the material;

2、Fusing the meaningful materials of children's life into the materials;

3、Contextualize the materials so that the original inanimate materials add emotional color.

Ensure the safety of the game environment

To ensure the safety of the game, parents can lay a carpet or foam mats in the children's play area, so that children can play games lying on the ground, sitting, kneeling, etc. to do all kinds of actions, but also to avoid children playing dirty clothes or getting cold and sick.

A good game environment is a basis for parents and children to play parent-child games. Therefore, to create a good game environment, to teach and play the game, get half the effect of education.
