The benefits of playing puzzles for babies, every parent wants his baby to be smart, and parents also want their baby to be smart, so they can consider playing puzzles with their baby. Because the baby can develop intelligence by playing puzzles, let's talk about the benefits of playing puzzles for the baby!
The benefits of playing puzzles for babies 1 1. Train children to understand the relationship between "part" and "whole"
Children can know that many parts can be pieced together into a whole, and a whole is made up of many parts.
2. Cultivate children's concept of plane combination
Building blocks are three-dimensional combinations, while puzzles are the concept of plane combinations, spelling out an object and spelling out a logical thing in a limited 2D range.
3. Cultivate the meaning of children's learning order/sequence/logic.
Many children naturally know how to spell from the edge when they first come into contact with multiple puzzles. This is the meaning of learning order, order and logic, and learning classification from observation and judgment. He must observe the correct spelling in the example to spell the correct answer.
4. Improve children's operation and hand-eyes.
Puzzle requires baby's patient operation and hand-eye coordination. As long as it is not coordinated, you can't put the color blocks in the right position, but children who can't at first will naturally practice a few times.
5. Cultivate children's observation, patience and concentration.
Draw the correct figure, in addition, it can cultivate the child's patience and concentration, so that he can sit still and do one thing.
6. Learn the methods and strategies to solve problems.
Playing puzzles can help children learn the ability of reasoning and thinking, because children will try different choices until they decide the right choice, that is, through the process of hypothesis, judgment and choice, so as to learn how to use logic to solve problems.
7. Improve children's frustration tolerance and endurance.
Children will inevitably make mistakes in the process of playing puzzles. At this time, they will feel depressed and express their willingness to stop playing, but adults can help them and help them tide over the difficulties.
8. Get affirmation from chaos/destruction reconstruction and build confidence in yourself at the same time.
When a child finishes a puzzle, it is easy for him to have a sense of accomplishment, which is very important for improving his interest and is also the source of his self-confidence in completing the puzzle independently in the future.
Benefits of playing puzzles for babies 2. Never underestimate their abilities just because they are young. My children have been interested in puzzles since childhood, and they took a fancy to 50 pieces at once. Although I don't believe she can finish them, I bought them anyway.
As soon as I got home, the baby happily opened the package. I thought she wouldn't bother me if she played by herself, so I went to work. We had dinner together at noon, and she said there would be a fight in the afternoon, so I was naturally happy.
Until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, when I got off work, it was strange to see the baby still putting together puzzles there. Shouldn't I give up playing something else because I can't put it together for a long time?
When I take a closer look, my baby has put together two-thirds of the puzzle. I was surprised and asked how the baby put it together. The baby said that there was a sample picture on the puzzle box, which he put together by himself.
From that moment on, I understood that many things were not impossible for her, but I thought she couldn't do it. Later, Dr. Early Education also asked me to take my baby to play educational games, such as puzzles and beading.
According to the doctor, the jigsaw puzzle not only needs the coordination of the baby's hands, brain and eyes, but also exercises his observation ability and control over details. At the same time, serious puzzles are also an exercise for his endurance, concentration and hands-on ability. The sooner he is trained, the smarter he becomes.
Five benefits of baby playing puzzles
1, can exercise the baby's observation.
As we all know, puzzles have different patterns, and each puzzle has different colors, shapes and even lines, so babies need to distinguish them one by one.
2, you can exercise your baby's concentration.
I believe many parents are worried that their children can't concentrate on their lectures and do their homework seriously in class, and these are the reasons for their lack of concentration. Playing puzzles requires children to observe shapes and colors through their eyes, touch lines and shapes with their hands, and then simulate them with their brains. This series of processes is the process of exercising concentration.
3, exercise hands-on ability
People often say that the hand is the second brain, and the flexibility of the hand directly reflects the activity of a person's brain. For 0-3-year-old babies, they are in the process of stimulating their brains through hand movements, scratching, touching and other stimuli, and puzzles are a favorable tool for exercising their hands.
4, exercise thinking ability
Puzzle is a process from simplicity to simplicity, and then from simplicity to complexity. Simply put, it is to break the whole into independent parts first, and then the children combine these independent parts into a whole through thinking and hands-on.
This process is beneficial for children to form abstract concepts of "whole" and "part", which can stimulate the simulation area in the brain and have a good exercise effect on children's spatial ability and three-dimensional ability.
Step 5 exercise patience
As we all know, learning is a long and boring process, which requires children to have some patience, and puzzles can just cultivate the ability of patience when the baby is young. Parents can compare their children's different reactions when they encounter obstacles for the first time and the tenth time in the process of jigsaw puzzles.
When encountering obstacles for the first time, many children will show impatience and anger. However, when they encounter obstacles for the tenth time, they will become calm and actively seek solutions to this problem.
How to guide people of different ages?
How to guide people of different ages? This is the confusion of many parents. Children must have different ages and different types of acceptable things. Therefore, Grapefruit Macey Toy City has sorted out the types of puzzles suitable for children aged 0-3 at each stage, and how parents guide their children to play puzzles at this stage.
0 ~ 1 year-old: Choose puzzles with simple patterns to guide children to see the patterns.
0 ~ 12-month-old baby, because of his immature body development and limited space for activities, this period is more suitable for him to see something with bright colors, clear lines and large patterns, and try to choose toys and graphics with four primary colors of red, yellow, blue and green to prepare for the development of baby's visual image cognition.
1 ~ 2 years old: choose to play jigsaw puzzles and guide children to participate in assembly.
/kloc-babies around 0/year old can walk, have a broad vision and greatly improve their cognitive ability of things and images. During this period, you can play with some simple three-dimensional toys for your baby.
Some toys sold in the market, such as detachable and assembled radishes, are good choices. This kind of toys can help the baby to initially establish the concept of whole-part-whole from disassembly to assembly, and can also promote the movement and development of hand muscles.
2 ~ 3 years old: Choose to play four kinds of puzzles and guide the children to observe the patterns before assembling them.
At this stage, the baby's "formal" jigsaw puzzle can begin. It is recommended that the baby play 4 puzzles first.
When choosing a puzzle, you should pay attention to the pattern and lines of the puzzle to be large and clear, and the color blocks should be obvious. For a baby who hasn't played with puzzles, you'd better show him the process of putting four puzzles together to form a complete picture, so that he can observe the final pattern carefully.
