These games are not every day. After accounting for a long time to restore the order in the bathtub, but the child receives from them a lot of useful experience. For security reasons, to play with water, a child should only be in your presence. During the games necessarily comment on the words everything he does and sees the child. Pay attention to how they behave in water objects of different materials, different size and weight, with holes or without them.
How to play with water?
First warm bath wall jet of hot water from the shower. At the bottom of the tub may be something to put a piece of foam or penoplena (cut to form the bottom of the bath Mat from the tourist). Put the baby in the bath, not pouring down water, and let her out of the faucet. To leave the child in a bath filled with not even a minute. And about a small basin with water. Therefore, it is best to put a basin under the faucet so that water is taken in it. Then the water can be taken from the pelvis, and from the tap.
Pour, pour, observe, compare!
Water can be poured into different containers. Naturally, only plastic (you can use cans and bottles of various size, style, type, texture, volume). Compare the amount of water in the vessels of similar shape but different size. Conversely, similar size, but different shape. Different transparency-opacity. Use the measurements as a third vessel (transparent), making a mark on the marker and water pouring from the first two turns.
Try to count how many small cups "fit" in a large bottle (to fill the bottles using a funnel). And if you pour out and then back into the cups? Will they all full? Or water in the bottle will remain?
Ask the child, what happens if you omit the empty open bottle completely under water. It will be filled or left blank? The bottle can be submerged under water, holding a variety of ways: horizontally, inclined or vertically (up or upside down).
And if you close it and drop into the water? Take an empty plastic bottle, tighten the lid and toss in the water. It will float horizontally on the surface of the water. Let your child try to lower it to the bottom and hold it.
Then open the lid, fill the bottle with water to half, close and let go into the water. She will swim at an angle. The part that is filled, will be under water.
Then pour the bottle to the top, close the lid. It will sink in water. If you do not fill to the top, then the water will be the tip of the bottle where there is no water. The same experience to do with boxes of kinder surprises.
Turn the two filled the water bottles and gradually pull out of the water. Leave one immersed neck, and the other gradually pull on. Watch what will happen.
The cover of one of the bottles, preferably made of soft plastic, perform a small hole. You will get an ordinary spray can be, remember, before the kids splashed each other of these on the street. Teach your child to pour water into it, squeezing the bottle and dipping the tip in water. And allow him enough to drizzle in the bathroom, canavesi blinds.
In the walls of any plastic bottle (better to take a bottle of thick plastic) you can make a hole. They are made with scissors: pierce a hole and crank shears around. This may be one hole (any size, and better, if will be different in different bottles): at the top, bottom or middle. Or more (all the same or each of its size):
- in a row horizontally, i.e. in a circle, at any height, at any distance from each other,
- in a row vertically,
in a series of spirals,
- from top to bottom around the entire bottle (only hole to do little, nail punctures),
- located randomly throughout the surface of the bottle.
You can make holes in the bottom of bottles or cans (one or more same or different size).
Experiment with these bottles: fill them with water from the tap (try to do it under different pressure), submerge them under water (you can try to plug the hand the mouth, then pull out and watch as water is poured through the holes, and at what point it ceases to flow. Different look transparent and opaque bottles.
Throw everything into the water!
In the water you can throw and catch those toys that will float on the surface of one or two palms, two fingers or a sieve, a colander, a net, stick, ladle. You can scoop up a Cup, the ball will float in it, and if the sieve, the water will pour out, and the toy will remain at the bottom. Not so easy to catch the toy palm.
Tried to play with floating toys, now let's find out, whether the items and materials that do not float in water.
Let's try to put into the water objects of different materials:
Metal - an ordinary spoon, other items (don't forget to immediately pull out, wipe and clean them);
Wood - wooden spoon, bowl, etc. also do not forget to immediately take that subjects did not deteriorate from moisture);
Plastic - any items and toys;
Rubber - in one rubber toy cut out the bottom, and the other throw, as is; compare;
Fabric - pieces of different fabrics, different sizes - some of them will quickly get wet, some are not. If you have prepared in washing is a very dirty thing, give the child her "wash", this "wash" gives children great pleasure, in addition, they become familiar with how the fabric absorbs water as it is heavier, changes to the touch, like changing its color.
Paper and paperboard different density - wet in different ways, all at once or first edge, faster or slower, sink or swim, take pieces of various sizes - a small piece of wet quickly large.
Sponges of different sizes - foam, rubber. They can collect water, squeeze them, collect spilled water. Some of them swim, some just get soaked and sinking fast.
Experiments with colored water
You can tint the water with watercolors. Better to start with one color. In one bottle (plastic, transparent) to make a concentrated solution, and then pour this solution in varying amounts in the second, third and fourth bottles (can be cut crosswise, then get a tall glass, they will be easier to pour). Pour solution interesting spoon or small Cup, so that you can see exactly how much you pour, and then it was convenient to compare the results. Spill of concentrated solution into containers, add water and watch with your baby, where the water is darker, where the lighter. Arrange the bottles in a mess. Let the kid try to arrange the bottles from the lightest shade to the darkest. The younger the child, the less sites for comparing (minimum of three).
Play each time with one color, next time take a different color. After some time, try mixing two colors.
In each of the bottles is the solution of different saturation of one color. Add to them the same amount of the second dye. Watch for the resulting color. Everything you see, discuss in detail with your baby. Try to show off colored water on paper (glued with tape on the tile piece of old Wallpaper) or directly on the tiles.
Soluble or insoluble
What else can be dissolved in water, except paints?
Let the kid poured into water (warm or cold) different liquids with a spoon. Juice, milk, yogurt, syrup, honey, jam, or even a few drops of sunflower oil. And if you pour water into different powders? Sugar, salt, flour, starch, soluble or insoluble coffee. And if you throw hard objects into the water? A piece of soap or sugar or something else. What happens to the water? Does the color? Transparency? Whether it dissolves, that we throw into the water immediately after mixing or after some time?
Familiarize children with different temperatures
It is also very important. This can be done with the same bottles that we poured colored water. Pour cold water, slightly warmer, warmer, hot, hot. Let the child touch the bottle. What are the feelings, words, learn to compare - set from the coldest to the hottest. You can try to dip a finger in water or pour from a bottle on hand and compare.
Later have to teach the child to use taps with hot and cold water. First, open the cold, then hot. The cranes usually have a red and blue circles. Red is dangerous, it's hot water. Blue is cold. But the moment the child acquainted with the tap is better to delay. To start a better acquaintance, in two and a half to three. And before that, it is necessary to create such conditions, when the child will not be able to open the valves. To do this, buy a tub wall, on which sit normally, and put some taps. Then the baby wouldn't make it.
And when the child is still to get acquainted with the possibility of opening the taps, you can introduce him to a difference in water head: strong, weak, weaker. To introduce the principle of operation of the mixer. Slightly open a hot, slightly open the cold. Cold stronger, weaker cold, hot stronger, hot weaker. The child in two and a half to three years is very interesting. And how it is useful to him and say no.
Ice is also water
You together with the child to freeze ice in containers of various shapes, but only that the form was not very clever, and then removing it will be very difficult... It will be cups, molds for the test, mugs, plates, molds for sand, any plastic containers of different sizes.
Something can be vmorozit in ice. For example, put some small igrushechku, cube plastic pour, freeze. And then watch, as will thaw.
Drop a glass with ice cubes in the refrigerator, another put in a room, the third - on a shelf in the bathroom. Or put on pieces of ice in a glass of hot, warm and cold water. Watch - where will melt faster. What if one glass with ice wrapped warm jacket (so it is something it just warms), and the other just leave on the table? You can freeze colored water, then the ice melted, water stain.
Invent new games with water. Summer at the dacha in warm weather, let the child play with water on the street in an inflatable pool or basin. Can bring a bucket of water directly into the sandbox.
