Besides picture books, I think what parents should prepare most is building blocks. I once took Momo to my grandmother's house to play. There was only one set of building blocks at home, and we played for several days.
From Momo's birth to the present 20 months, there are always four sets of building blocks in our family. It's not much, but it's played frequently, and some of them have been worn out ... (Of course, maybe Momo chewed them-)
So what's a good way to play with building blocks? Teach you n kinds of gameplay in 3 stages, and take you to have fun and play smart!
1
Conversation stage
Small-month-old children can't keep up with finger movements, and the acceptance of building blocks mainly comes from parents' preaching. Although babies over one year old like to play with themselves, they can't do without their parents' company, so parents' explanation is particularly important.
We have a set of wooden building blocks printed with 26 letters, 10 Arabic numerals and 12 China Zodiac. So when we usually play with building blocks, I like to explain the above knowledge to him. When I was younger, I just talked dry. When I was older, I would make up stories. It usually takes an hour or two to play with this set of building blocks.
skill
Dialogue with children, encourage children to participate, strengthen children's knowledge input by asking questions, and actively encourage children to export knowledge. Gradually transition from "I say you listen" to "you say I listen" to promote the development of children's language ability. Some building blocks are bilingual, which can also enrich children's English vocabulary and entertain and educate.

Hands on the stage
Help the brain and promote brain development and thinking. Momo's first building block is a set of cloth building blocks. When he was a child, he liked to chew and study, and he liked to pull the small cloth on it and listen to the bells ringing inside. When I was older, I bought him two sets of building blocks, a set of wooden blocks that can be built and a set of plastic blocks that can be buckled (meters high).
When I was about one year old, my interest in building blocks was still at the stage of listening to stories. About 14 months, I began to like high cardinality. After going to Gymboree for early education, my favorite thing to play is the advanced building block table, which is buckled up a little and falls high, which is very fulfilling.
skill
In this process, encourage children to do it. Because children's concentration time is limited, they can appropriately lengthen the concentration time by playing with building blocks. For example, if children are tired of playing with building blocks and don't want to play, they can change their skills and try to build a long base into a small train. By changing the way of doing things, it is easy to attract children's attention to the building blocks.

Imagination stage
People's imagination is the most precious wealth. Some people say that children are happy because they not only have a happy childhood, but also have an imagination that adults can't match. Imagination is especially precious to children. Building blocks are a good helper to encourage and guide children to develop reasonable imagination.
By building blocks, castles, robots, or ponies and sofas, the moment it is made is the joy of success. Although some things are just the same, the next time children play by themselves, they can expand their intentional imagination through the accumulation of unintentional imagination.
My aunt gave me Lego bricks for my first birthday. Momo didn't like them at that time, but now he is 20 months old. He can even creatively put them in the middle of the wheel or pose to tell me that this is his "cart".
skill
Encourage children's imagination on the basis of the first two stages, first explain and then do it together, and then reach the children to play and do it themselves. This process is very long, but you can see the progress of your child little by little. In the imagination stage, no matter what children do, they should give a positive response: applause, applause, so that children have a sense of accomplishment and experience the joy of success.
I told them that I was careful when playing with the children. In fact, as long as parents are willing to persist, playing with their children and exploring the fun of parent-child activities together will be a benign promotion for children.
Playing with building blocks helps them to establish a knowledge system in the initial stage of knowledge integration and form a cognition of things, colors, shapes and so on. After they start working, they change from big particles to small particles, exercise hand muscles a little, promote brain development, help them develop reasonable imagination, and have certain knowledge accumulation and practical ability, thus successfully achieving the purpose of entertaining.
