Features of development of children 5-6 years old
When creating a card index of games for children 5-6 years old, you need to take into account the characteristics of this age. After all, these are no longer the same kids who are ready to spend hours selecting the right part for the sorter, assembling a pyramid or moving a gurney, enjoying these activities. Children attending the senior group of kindergarten have already accumulated a considerable amount of knowledge and skills. They:
- independent;
- speak well;
- are able to analyze the situation;
- explain some phenomena;
- defend their opinion;
- work in a team;
- can carry out tasks according to instructions.
Priorities in games are also changing. Older preschoolers prefer to play with peers rather than with parents; the time has come for role-playing entertainment. However, these are not the only favorite activities. Kids are not averse to frolicking on a walk, playing board games, doing creative work, taking part in competitions or musical entertainment.
There are many games available for 5-6 year old children. Their classification is quite arbitrary. We offer a selection of three types of games for preschool educational institutions - active, played indoors or outdoors; low mobility (with teaching aids); plot-role-playing.
