The importance of didactic games and toys in the education of young children
Educational games and educational toys are of great importance in the learning, learning and development of young children. After all, it is a game and a toy that can simultaneously teach, educate and bring joy to a child.
From an early age, a child actively learns about the world around him, through studying what is happening around him. In this knowledge, he is actively helped by educational games and toys, which help expand the child’s horizons, teach him to observe and highlight the characteristic features of objects, and establish simple relationships between them.

Educational games and toys are of particular importance in the education of young children, since with their help children learn and assimilate the norms and rules of behavior in society and acquire skills of interaction with others. All these skills are necessary for children not only for successful subsequent studies at school, but also for successful socialization in society.
Observation 1
A didactic game and a toy are inseparable from each other. Thus, an educational toy can become the beginning of a game during which a storyline unfolds that requires additional toys.
The value of educational games and toys is that they introduce children to life, promote their mental development and provide opportunities for all types of children's activities.
Speech game on the topic “Toys” 4. “How we play”
We learn to select actions (verbs) to an object (noun).
Tanya and Vanya love to play with toys. And they want to know how you play with your toys. Let's tell them about our games (you can use a toy phone). You “dial a number” on a toy phone and start a conversation: “Hello, Tanya and Vanya! This is Danilka calling you. How are you? We are playing, do you want to know how? Now Danilka and I will tell you”:
Danilka (your child’s name), what are we doing with the ball? We roll, throw, catch (we choose words together with the baby). If a child wants to show how he does it, let him show all the actions right there. During the demonstration of actions, he can remember new actions and name them too, or he can come up with them.
- What does the ball do? Rolls, flies, bounces, bursts, jumps, jumps, hits the floor, etc.
- What do we do with the doll? We put the doll to bed, feed, drink, dress, undress the doll, rock it, and take it for a walk.
- What does the doll do? Walks, eats, sings songs, dresses, walks, dresses up, plays, dances.
- What do we do with the car? How do we play with it? We drive, load bricks into the back, honk the horn, catch up with other cars, stop, brake.
- What does the machine do? It drives, rushes, stops, accelerates, skids, drives into a garage, brakes, rolls over, breaks down, gets stuck, drives out, overtakes other cars.
For this game you can choose any toys that your child loves.
Didactic game "Toys"
Dolls have existed for centuries; they are the best means of comprehensive development and socialization of children. Therefore, no kindergarten can do without a large play corner.
The purpose of the didactic game “Toys” is to get acquainted with different dolls and toys, to develop the ability to distinguish between them based on their main characteristics.
Tasks:
- formation of ideas about the types of toys, their size, geometric shape, color, number;
- enrichment of vocabulary on the topic “Children’s toys”;
- education of careful handling of toy objects;
- developing the ability to think logically and concentrate;
- improvement of finger motor skills, general coordination of movements, spatial orientation;
- development of speech skills, the ability to communicate, build a dialogue, listen to the interlocutor, answer questions, describe objects;
- development of imagination, visual perception.
Speech game with toys 2. “Teams”
We teach the child to use verbs in the imperative mood in speech. We prevent and correct grammatical errors in children's speech.
Tanya and Vanya's toys love to follow their commands. Let's teach your toys to perform different commands.
Ask your child to choose a favorite toy to teach. The toy (in the hands of an adult) carries out the baby’s command only if he has not made a grammatical error. In case of an error, the toy “wait” for the child to correct his mistake himself or with the help of adults.
First, you help the child give commands to the toy: “Ask the doll to dance, lie on its back, sing, etc.”, then the child comes up with the commands, and you only help him, suggest the correct option if necessary. In the future, you can change roles with the child.
Below I give a selection of words that children very often make mistakes and say, for example, like this: “lie down”, “wave”, “sing”, “wake up”. These mistakes will very quickly disappear from children’s speech after our fun game. The main thing is to repeat the game many times with different toys and different teams. Commands can be made by an adult, a father and mother, or a child at your request - come up with your own options! Have fun playing!
Sample commands for playing with a toy: sit down, bend over, wave your hand, sing, dance, draw, run, jump, sleep, wake up, clap your hands, stomp, lie on your back, lie on your tummy, comb your hair, ride, sit, jump over ..., touch your nose (ears, tail, mouth), etc.
