Why is it necessary to solve riddles with children.
“Riddles are one of the oldest and most common types of folk art. In ancient times, the riddle had a certain meaning, served as a means of testing wisdom, had cognitive value. With the help of riddles, folk knowledge, folk wisdom were passed on to generations. In short colorful and intriguing questions that compiled about absolutely everything in the world, the wisdom and experience of not a single generation was collected.
The concept of "riddle" of ancient origin, comes from the word "think". Riddles help teach our children simple life truths, introduce them to the surrounding objects, things, and the world as a whole.
The very process of guessing and guessing riddles is never a boring activity. Many children love to solve riddles, and this fascinates them. Looking for clues is very interesting and fun.
Always encourage children to be interested in riddles. They teach to think and analyze, enrich vocabulary, expand knowledge about the world, instill love for their native language. Riddles perfectly develop thinking, memory, attention, perseverance. You can solve riddles in a playful way and at ease. A riddle is a brief description of an object or phenomenon. It includes a lot of valuable information about the world around. From the presented riddle, the child can obtain information about the appearance of the object. Riddles are of great importance for the development of the child's thinking, as they make you observe, compare and contrast phenomena. Therefore, riddles are a kind of exercise for the children's mind. They teach to think and prove, teach to think logically, analyze, draw conclusions, highlight the most significant features and phenomena, and thus develop the child's mental abilities. Teach your child to solve riddles. To guess the answer, the child needs to identify all the signs of an object or phenomenon, compare them with each other, remember where he saw this or that object. If it is difficult for a child to guess, do not rush to immediately tell the clue. Give time to think, otherwise interest in riddles will quickly disappear. Children should be taught to consciously guess riddles, understand their content, look for solutions, and, importantly, explain and prove the correctness of their answer. Come up with riddles with your child. This is no less exciting and useful than guessing. You can invent riddles about everything. Start with simple descriptions of the objects around you. Such creativity teaches the child to speak vividly and figuratively, to look at ordinary objects from a new perspective, to find similarities between different objects. You can play riddles on purpose, that is, explain to the child that he needs to carefully examine everything around, remember and solve the riddle. And you can spontaneously, for example, going out into the street or walking in the park. The main thing is that you yourself know them and can remember them at the right time. Do not forget to explain to the child that everything is important in the riddle, you cannot miss a single word. After the child has found the answer, it is necessary to find out how he did it, why he decided that way. Such questions teach the baby to reason, explain, prove, and you are given the opportunity to find out the course of his thoughts and, if necessary, correct the conclusions. It is important that the riddles be on any one specific topic: today - about animals, tomorrow - about nature, then - about plants, and so on. Such a narrowing of topics helps the baby to achieve results faster, makes him confident in his abilities.
