How children can ride trains for several hours or even a day without growing bored or sedentary!
Travel and summer vacations are finally here! As parents, we cringe when we consider how our kids could endure several hours, or even a whole day, on a train without growing weary of sitting still and doing nothing. Let’s examine forced inconveniences from an opposing perspective. We struggled to find enough time each year to spend in-depth communication with our child. We are now by ourselves with the infant. We have the chance to get to know our child and watch him grow without being sidetracked by work.

So, to prepare a fun trip we will need:
• Children between the ages of three and ten; • Neighbors that are kind and creative; • Balloons; • Stationery (paper, pencils, scissors, glue, etc.); Approximately two to three brand-new books, magazines, and toys; a selection of tiny toys (perhaps from Kinder Surprise eggs); building kits; stickers; audio recordings of activities and fairy tales; devices for playing audio and video; and details about the towns and villages you will tour.
5 cooking secrets
To prevent children from getting tired on the road: 1. Follow the usual daily routine: washing, exercise, breakfast, activities, games, lunch, dinner, bedtime story, etc.).
2. Don"t forget to organize active games and activities, get off the train at stops.
3. To add some spice to the monotonous food on the train, come up with a menu for the whole day together with your child. Change the usual names of dishes to fictitious ones, and hang a beautiful menu in a prominent place in the compartment.
4. We do not give the child all the prepared toys at once – we keep the element of surprise.
5. Create some temporary responsibilities for your child on the way: wipe the dust, look up the name of the next settlement, take out the trash, wash the fruit, make sandwiches, etc.
Game piggy bank
Board games Many traveling mothers take children"s board games on the road: they take up little space in the bag and the children like them. But, in my opinion, they are all monotonous and predictable. What if you make your own board game with your child on the way? I suggest gluing together a couple of album sheets, drawing the playing field into sections and naming them after the settlements that your route passes by. You can draw and cut out the chips in the shape of carriages or use your youngest son"s small racing cars. Your hometown Yekaterinburg can be the start, and your destination can be the finish. Sign up the tasks for each station, like in forfeits. For example:
• in the “Start” section: pretend to be a conductor and say the words: “Attention! The train leaves. Request to leave the wagons!"
• kiss mom;
• treat a neighbor with something tasty;
• tell the poem;
• Fulfill the song;
• make a riddle;
• Find the differences in the landscapes of two windows opposite;
• Name 5 red objects;
• buy;
• PROSED FOR FOR A MN.DR.
The usual sections “Spend of the course” or “double stroke” can be replaced by the names “Night”, “Day”.
, with the help of this game, the child and the name of the cities will remember, and the time will pass with enthusiasm. Role games Cover the shelf for sleeping a sheet and get a house for games or a screen for a puppet performance. If you are a happy owner of two neighboring shelves, the house will be two -story. It will be interesting for the child to retire in his own space and play "Teremok", treat animals in the hospital, conduct reading and math lessons, or maybe arrange a casting for the show "Minute of Fame" among the toys. Uniting with children of another compartment, you can prepare a concert: so kill two hares: both the children will be busy and you will rest. Developing games Use a child toys for different variations of games:
• Report animals in places, ask the baby: “What has changed?"
• Remove one or two toys, let the child call the loss.
• Fold toys in an opaque package, and the son (daughter) guesses them to the touch.
• In turn, make ups about toys (surrounding objects) and guess them.
• Find general and distinctive signs of toys.
• Compare objects: higher – lower, longer – shorter, larger – less, more dangerous – safer, thicker – thinner, etc.D.
• MOSENT AND SOW MATEMATIC PROBLEMS. Verbal games Intellectual games develop speech, thinking, memory and even a sense of humor. Here are some of my children"s favorite games:
1. "Poker" – the child chooses his own name – the name of kitchen utensils: colander, fork, ladle, frying pan. The host asks any questions to which the child answers with his new name. For example:
– What is your name?
– Frying pan.
– And who is your dad?
– Frying pan.
– Who will you become when you grow up?
– Frying pan.
– And what will you call your children later?
– Frying pans.
– What did you eat today?
– Frying pan. A cheerful mood and laughter are guaranteed. 2. "City, name, animal" (with older children) – we name the letter and write in the table the names of cities, names, rivers, animals for a given letter. 3. "Snowball" – the essence of the game is known to you, when players repeat previously named words on a certain topic. And you use the road theme, continuing the phrase: "I"ll take with me on the road …" 4. “Calculate” – give the child the task to calculate in the car of all the mustachioed men, all boys or girls, all sleeping, etc.d. 5. “Guess” – the child makes himself a fruit, a piece of furniture, a famous star, an animal, etc. The players must guess the image with the help of 10 leading questions. 6. “Ear, throat, nose” – quickly name the parts of the body. The child’s task is to cover them with their palms. The presenter deliberately confuses the child by pointing incorrectly. 7. “Gifts” – we write the names of the gifts on pieces of paper, fold them and put them in a bag. In another bag we put similar packages with the written purposes of the gifts. One of the players pulls out a “gift” and says: “I give you …, for example, a carrot”. The other player pulls out a piece of paper from the second bag and thanks: “Thank you! I will pin this carrot to my hat!”.
8. Of course, your story about the cities you pass by will contribute to development. Find out on the Internet what these stations are interesting, as the rivers are called in them, what animals and birds can be seen there. Pay attention to the change in natural zones outside the window. Outdoor games Of course, the space in the carriage is quite limited, but you can still move around. Balloons will help us with this. Bright and light, they quickly involve even the most indifferent passengers in the game. Here are options for throwing balls:
• throwing balls, calling out names or titles of cartoons;
• throwing balls, making 1-2 claps;
• throwing a ball over a stretched rope;
• throw a ball from behind your head.
Another option to move is to organize exercises. This could be an audio exercise or a song with movements.
A book of riddles that you have prepared will help you do gymnastics with enthusiasm. A child guesses a riddle about a bicycle, and then depicts it. You can catch mosquitoes with your hands, butt like kids, arch your back like a cat, fly like a bee, etc.d. The main thing is to be careful when moving the train and select safe exercises. Massages can also help compensate for the lack of movement. Draw, cut out, color Why not make a postcard for your grandmother on the road when you are going to visit? Or maybe it"s time for your little one to learn to cut? Draw vegetables or fruits, color them, and then cut them into small pieces for a salad! A little daughter took a paper doll on the road. It"s time to update her wardrobe by drawing and cutting out new dresses. A son is into cars. Cut out cars using templates, color them in different ways, glue on drivers (cut out faces from mom"s magazines we read) and the car collection is ready! Tired of drawing? Take pencils and construct geometric shapes, a house, a boat, a Christmas tree, and animals from them. Of course, the easiest way is to give your child a smartphone with games or turn on cartoons on a laptop. It is only sad that both we and children spend a lot of time in the virtual world, if only not to get lost in it and not lose precious time. I hope my recipe to the sound of wheels was useful to you.
A well-planned train trip can be enjoyable for children ages three to ten. In addition to bringing small toys or coloring books, pack snacks and family games to keep the kids occupied. Including stops for walking and gazing out the window to take in the view will help to make the journey enjoyable. The trip can be just as exciting as the destination with a little planning and inventiveness.
