2. Shape classification game: Play shape classification game with children. Give children different shapes of objects, and then let them put objects of the same shape together. This helps to cultivate their observation and analogical thinking.
3. Shape recognition painting: draw different shapes on paper, and then let the children find out and name each shape. You can also let them try to draw specific shapes themselves to improve their creativity and hand-eye coordination.
4. Shape maze game: Make a simple shape maze and guide children to find the target shape through the maze. This kind of game can exercise children's spatial cognition and problem-solving ability.
5. Combine with daily life: In daily life, help children know the different shapes of objects by pointing out. For example, when you shop in the supermarket, point out different shapes of food or products.
It must be remembered that shape cognition is a gradual process, which takes time and patience. By exploring and playing with children, we can help them build a good foundation of shape cognition.
