How to play with your child and enjoy it!

The adult is small

When you want to share the game his child, he must be careful to give him the initiative. The child must discover the pleasure of playing alone. The adult must be present at the request of the child. But it should not lead the game It is not his role. Otherwise, the parent is likely to replace the leadership of his child who will never know what to play when he is alone. You should know how to be discreet to enter the child's play. For example, if you want some coffee with her dinette, we must of course accept a cup, but be careful not to hold the food and service!

Broaden the range of games

The game is the main activity of a child. To enrich his imagination, it is important to be able to propose a wide choice and variety. And not to limit the palette to what is believed to be games for girls or boys. Especially for the imitation games, such as the doctor, doll, toy library etc ..., we often see girls handle cars and garages, while their friends are pushing prams with babies. It is more difficult in the family, except when siblings are mixed.

Patience and kindness

Construction games are also games that can be shared between adults and children. The adult can build a tower of Kapla building or developing a Lego child take great pleasure in breaking down or destroy. It is the child to discover at your own pace you can be proud of a building and want to leave it a little while standing. If the child wants to break the tower of cubes, you must let him. These are his toys!

Face off and staging

But entertainment where parents can have a very important role, especially that it is the game. Children, even very young are fond. We sat around a table, manipulating dice, and small characters ... Everything decor impresses and attracts. For a successful party with children, you must first master the essential rules of the game If the adult put a quarter of an hour trying to understand the rules, children will give him the slip. Then, with the smallest, it is necessary to play the scene, presenting a story that makes it alive. For the game Verger example, set the scene: there are 4 beautiful trees loaded with fruit. We will help the farmer to go off before the arrival of the raven!

No cheating!

What is really fun for the child is that it can win the game with beard adults. But do not chew. Let him win all the time, it is a form of contempt. Unlike the adult who wants to win at all costs, regardless of the child, may discourage it. It is for this reason that cooperative games, where you earn together, are suitable for small children. Games involving memory, including visual memory, are also recommended because they favor the children. Last advice: do not cheat when playing with children. Cheating is lying. It is anti-education and conflict with parenting!
