Features of the development of the child after a year
At the age of one, the child actively studies the objects around him, learns to manipulate them. The baby copies the actions of the parents, perceives the skill of handling objects. In one year, the child already realizes that each thing is endowed with meaning and performs some specific function.
Note! It is very important to perform some kind of manipulation with the baby, for example, play together, read books.
It is not necessary to include too many objects in an educational game for a one-year-old child, as this will distract his attention. It is necessary to constantly alternate exercises aimed at physical, cognitive, sensory, motor, speech and mental development. Parents will have to help the baby all the time, since he will have to perform many actions for the first time. It is necessary to deal with the baby only in a warm and ventilated room. It is also important to make sure that the child is doing great, not hungry or thirsty, and slept well. If the baby is capricious, then it is better to postpone classes for a while.
How to play with your child at home
Developing activities with a 1 year old child at home must be carried out at the right time. The crumb should be well-fed and slept. Outdoor games should not be played before bedtime. For developmental activities, it is better to choose the same time every day so that the baby gets used to the regime. Games with a one-year-old child at home should be short (no more than 10 minutes) and interesting for the baby. The development of a one-year-old child occurs through imitation, so parents should show what to do with objects and encourage the baby to repeat their actions. So that the child does not lose interest in the game, Evgeny Komarovsky advises to attract him with colorful toys or sound.
Important! Do not leave a child alone with small and loose things, toys that break or have sharp parts.
