Children's games in different seasons differ in the dynamics of the game action, as well as in the conceptual design and the means for its implementation. Children vividly capture natural change and adapt their attitudes and actions in an intuitive and sensitive way. In addition, they are characterized by exceptional observation, the result of their ability to "block perception" of the outside world. This type of perception is expressed in obtaining a complex of specific, detailed impressions and sensations with the participation of all receptors and analyzers simultaneously. The resulting ("block") picture thus produces a series of associative images and their creative arrangement in a puzzle of ideas and initiatives for the practical exploration and play of the surrounding reality.
We would like to bring to your attention the "Seasonal Games" cycle - our selection of fun, interesting and educational games with children.
Each child with the skill of an artist captures the magnificent play of nature with colors and shapes that he discovers in the colorful landscape, the dripping leaves, in the fruits and vegetables. Here are ideas for 7 exciting autumn games that kids enjoy and initiate if we provide them with enough interesting and diverse material support:
1. Drawing figures of animals and humans from natural materials (acorns, chestnuts, nuts, potatoes, etc.) and engaging in spontaneous gameplay (game etudes and improvisations).
2. Strands (necklaces and garlands) of autumn leaves for accessory to your own toilet or for the decoration of rooms.
3. Preparation of "delicious specialties" according to their own recipe and their inclusion in a self-directed, improvised game ("family", "guest" or "restaurant" games).
4. Making salads and sandwiches with real products during a nature outing (story and role-playing games with chefs and waiters).
5. A game of "Shop" in which the real goods are replaced by leaves, fruits, grasses, pebbles, etc.
6. Organizing and conducting an Autumn fashion show or carnival, at which children are presented with costumes in autumn colors. Some of them may take on the role of a forest animal (with the appropriate costume) and exhibit its seasonal behavior, as well as have a spontaneous dialogue with another forest animal or realize a makeshift theatrical production of a fictional impromptu plot.
7. Children are encouraged to write their Autumn Tale by playing the role of writers and why not of artists who design illustrations of a picture book on a story plot or decorate a theater for a table and perform a puppet show in a fairy tale scenario (puppet dolls or small plastic or plush toys).
