Developing things for children with their own hands. For the little ones, a developing mat is suitable. Homemade soft toys and dolls

developmental toys fine motor skills It's not for nothing that they're so popular with parents. After all, everyone has long known that stimulating the nerve endings of children's fingers directly affects the development of that part of the brain that is responsible for speech. Store shelves are strewn with similar toys, but you can’t buy everything, and children get bored of them pretty quickly. You can save money and make them yourself. It will take quite a bit of time and household items that you were probably going to throw away.

Lid toys

Little kids are big fans of unscrewing bottle caps. Turns out it's extraordinary. useful activity for motor skills training!

In order to make an educational toy, you will need: a shoe box, cut off bottle necks with caps, colored paper.

Carefully cut holes in the lid. We insert parts of the bottle into them so that the necks remain inside the box, and the lids remain outside. We decorate everything with colored paper.


Get creative or use our template.

If you thread the ropes through the covers and fasten them, they will not get lost during the game.

Mosaic

Materials: plastic lids, balloon holders, box and glue.


We glue the "holders" and corks so that we get chips on the legs. We make holes in the upper part of the box with an awl. We get an excellent educational mosaic with large details that will definitely not fit into the baby's mouth! BUT Interesting games turn the stacking of chips into an exciting activity:

  • "Track". Put two toys on the field and ask the baby to help them meet by connecting them with a path.
  • "Stars in the sky" Prepare a figurine of a bunny and tell the baby a fairy tale: “A bunny got lost in a dark forest and will not find its way home. We will help him if we light stars in the sky.” Lay out the yellow details, and then let the morning come and the sun will “rise”.
  • "Hen with chickens". Lay out with white chips the figure of a chicken mother calling her children: “Chick-chick, my chickens!”. Invite the baby to arrange the chicks.

Sewn development

Moms who have at least some ability for needlework can sew unique educational toys from scraps of fabric and sewing accessories.

It can be a rug, a panel, puppet show and even a big book. Appliqués, pockets, patches united by a common plot are decorated with buttons, zippers, Velcro and buttons that are useful for developing finger motor skills.

Similar material:

Baby book "Kolobok"

All children love fairy tales. But it is difficult for them to simply listen, since children under 3 years old are characterized by visual-figurative and visual-effective types of thinking. That's why the best option for the development of the crumbs there will be a book sewn based on a fairy tale. In our case, this is "Kolobok".

Prepare scraps of fabric and the basis for the book (clamshell type). On the first page, a house and a tree will be depicted, and on the rest, all the animals encountered on the way of Kolobok. It is more convenient to attach them with Velcro so that the baby can take them off and put on. The child will move Kolobok himself along the path (a string stretched along the entire book).


Similarly, you can beat other fairy tales, for example, "Turnip". Such benefits develop attention, contribute to the formation of moral feelings in a child, teach to remember the sequence of events in the plot of a fairy tale.

"Funny animals"

From felt, you can sew muzzles of bunnies and cubs. Their removable eyes or ears are attached with buttons.


Assembling animals from parts, children learn to recognize colors and shapes, unfasten and fasten buttons, stimulating the nerve endings of their fingers.

Pusher

An ordinary mayonnaise jar with a lid or a container can turn into a simple fine motor simulator in a few minutes. Also prepare an awl or knife and small items for pushing.

Make holes in the lid of the existing container corresponding to the size of the beads (beans, tennis balls, counting sticks, coins). For some items, you can make holes a little smaller so that the little one has to make an effort. So he will get acquainted with the concepts of "big - small."

Alternatively, you can use a non-spill glass and push pompoms or buttons into it. The main thing is to always be close to the baby during the game so that he does not inadvertently swallow a bead or button.

"Hungry Box"

We glue a small box with colored paper and draw a funny face on the lid. In the place where the mouth is located, cut a hole. We offer the baby to “feed” the box with small items.

We lace and string

In young children, the fingers are still quite inept, so it is difficult for them to perform precise movements. Lacing games are very convenient and easy to make yourself.

If there is absolutely no time for preparation, we give the child a ribbon and offer to string chopped cocktail sticks, pasta, buttons. For lacing, you can make holes in a cardboard picture or printed blanks with a hole punch in a few minutes, through which the baby will thread the ribbon, lace and wire.

Thematic material:

You can pre-make material for the game. We roll balls of clay, pierce them with a toothpick and let dry. After that, you need to cover them with PVA glue and paint with gouache and varnish. Beads can be of different shapes, colors and sizes.

For children who still do not know how to string and lace, we are preparing tactile toys with ribbons.

We will need: a jar with a lid in which holes are cut, different textured ribbons or laces. At the ends of the latter we tie knots and thread them through the holes. We show the child how to stretch them, and enjoy the free time!

Sensory pads

These are fabric bags filled with cereals or beads, making them easy. You can sew such accessories in the form of animals or figures.

But the best option is the so-called searchers, in which there is a transparent window. In such toys, in addition to cereals and beads, they put "treasures" (small figures, sorter details, etc.). Children sort through the bag with their fingers and look for hidden objects.


Grain games

Suitable for little ones from six months, the main thing is to make sure that they do not pull them into their mouths. The smallest can simply sort and pour buckwheat, rice, peas, and for older children, you can come up with real didactic classes, during which they will get acquainted with the concepts of "big - small", "above - below", the names of animals, sorting rules, etc.

"Gather the chickens"

Prepare a container or large box, cereal, tongs (spoon, clothespin).

Game options:

  • bury small objects and ask the child to find them;
  • lay out on the rump of chicks, small elements that can be sorted according to any sign or fed;
  • if there are no such toys, take animal figurines and let the baby find a cow (“Who says “Moo-y”), a chicken (“Who says “Ko-ko-ko”), etc .;
  • you can also print letters, numbers and figures on the croup with your finger.


rice drawing

If you cover rice with food coloring, you get an unusual drawing tool. Apply glue to the paper and have your child sprinkle the grits.

Such an activity will be useful for finger motility, color perception and imagination.

Clothespin games

Maria Montessori, who was still familiar to everyone, spoke about the benefits of these items. If you show a little imagination, it is easy to come up with a lot of interesting educational games using them.


It is easy to make blanks from felt or cardboard (fruits, animals, trees). One-year-olds can only remove clothespins from the base, two-year-olds will cope with other actions.

Use paperclips instead of clothespins. This option is suitable for children of preschool age.

Tactile pouches

Prepare two identical bags. In each of them, put one pair of items (pebbles, buttons, tennis and massage balls, designer details). The main thing is that they are made from different materials, differed in form and texture.

We take out a figure from one bag, let the child see it, ask him to name its properties. We invite the baby to find the same object by touch in another bag.

Observe what attracts the baby, and turn it into an educational game. Made by yourself, it will be unique and will bring much more benefits than a regular store-bought toy.

Homemade children's toys have always been interesting. Every toy made for a child has the love and energy that goes into its construction. No wonder children are sometimes very careful about seemingly unsightly toys.
Currently, there are a lot of different colored and beautiful children's toys in stores, so homemade toys are very rarely made. But hidden meaning in a homemade technical toy that is precisely the process of creating a toy, thinking, building it with your own hands with the help of a tool. Moreover, such a process takes place together with one of the parents or older brothers and sisters, especially when the children are small and cannot work with the instrument on their own, this is both a game and a learning process.
Purchased educational toys(like the "Lego" constructor) are very good, they allow you to assemble many structures, but the weak link is that everything is assembled from ready-made bricks - just fasten these bricks together and get the intended design.
In such a game, the original elements of creativity disappear - the choice of materials, processing them by hand with the help of various tools until the required shape is obtained, fastening in the necessary ways, achieving the necessary function.
Therefore, a homemade toy is a truly educational toy.
As children, we were forced to build ourselves toys and equipment for games. Many of them are undeservedly forgotten. Let's try to recall some homemade toys for boys May they bring joy to children and their parents.

Wooden reel tractor

Such a tractor is interesting for boys 3-7 years old. It is made from a spool of thread or, as we called it, a katonchik.
Indentations are carefully cut out on the wooden cheeks of the katon with a sharp knife - this is the prototype of the tread on the wheels or the hooks on the tracks.


Such hooks allow reel tractor crawl freely on sofas and pillows.
The basis of the engine is rubber. Its length should be slightly longer than the coil. The best rubber is aircraft model, good rubber can be carefully pulled out of ordinary clothing gum. This tire gives you a lot of power.


On one side, a small carnation or two is hammered into the katon. The rubber band can be hooked with one end to the carnation, or you can place a piece of a match behind the carnations - then the rubber motor is fixed exactly in the center, which gives another half a meter of travel.


In order for the rubber to spin at a low speed, a clutch of laundry soap is placed between the support stick (or match) and the cheek of the coil.
Its diameter should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the wheel (so as not to interfere with movement), and the thickness is about a centimeter. A hole with a diameter of 4-5 mm is made in the center, for a supporting match - a small groove.
You can make a muff from bath soap - it is a little softer, you can use a candle or ski wax. How softer material clutch, the more it slows down and, consequently, the slower the tractor goes.
Assembling and starting the tractor is shown in the video.

Such a tractor does not spoil anything and does not make any sounds. Only the child himself growls a little when he plays.

Toy "Pinocchio with a ring"

This toy is cut out of 4mm plywood with a jigsaw.
First, a pattern is applied to the plywood through a copy, then it is cut out. The edges are treated with sandpaper, then everything is painted and varnished. A small hole is drilled at the end of Pinocchio's nose and a harsh thread 50-70 cm long is tied. A ring 3-7 cm in diameter is tied to the end of the thread.
The ring can also be cut out of plywood or you can find a suitable ready-made one.
Holding the Pinocchio profile in your hand, you need to throw the ring up with a jerk of the thread and put it on your nose. The smaller the diameter of the ring, the more difficult it is to do.
Several people play at once, trying to score as many effective throws as possible in a certain number of attempts.

Working model sailboat

Being on vacation near the water in the summer, you can with great pleasure engage in the manufacture and launch of small sailing boats.


To make these, it is enough to have only a sharp knife with you.
A suitable piece of dry wood is taken, or, even better, pine bark, which sometimes comes across on the banks of a river or lake. The hull of the boat is cut with a knife - a flat-bottomed boat with a sharp bow and a rounded stern.
The hull is tested for lack of roll.
Then two cuts are made in the hull - one vertical in the middle of the stern for attaching the rudder and another cut with the tip of a knife right in the middle of the hull along the fibers for attaching the mast.
The mast is made of a round twig, light and durable. One end of the twig is sharpened with a spatula and hammered into a cut in the middle of the body with a knife handle.
The rudder is pulled out of a flat piece of wood about the thickness of a ship's hull and about one-third the length of the hull. The rudder is also driven with a knife into a notch in the stern of the hull, and the rudder must be completely immersed in water.
The sail is also cut out of birch bark with a knife. Round holes are made at the top and bottom of the sail, with the help of which the sail is carefully pushed tightly onto the mast.
It is possible to equip one mast with several sails.


Sails can be made from plastic bottles, and the body is made of foam.
You can build a frigate by equipping the ship with three masts and a lot of sails. The main thing is that he does not roll over from the severity of the equipment and tolerates pitching well.
After several buildings, experience comes and the ships keep their course well and gain good speed.
If you have several sailboats, you can arrange a small regatta for speed and accuracy. It is very convenient when there is a shallow closed reservoir, where you can work out launches without fear and without loss of ships.

paper planes

A child of 5 - 7 years old is usually already easily controlled with scissors, and he is quite capable of building these schematic flying models of aircraft himself.


The best thing paper planes are obtained from postcards - they have good thick paper and suitable sizes. Planes keep their shape well and fly well inside the room.


You can cut out models of various shapes and designs, you can test a flying wing, make two stabilizers, make wings of various sweeps.


Each form of the model has its own flight characteristics, its own flight speed and its own stability in flight.
When building a flying model, it should be taken into account that one hundred and all lines of the aircraft must be perfectly straight, that is, the paper should not be crumpled. The folds of the papers are gently ironed with a fingernail.


The center of gravity of the model should be in the first third of the wing. The angle of attack of the hind wings should be within 15-20 degrees, it is selected experimentally and then obtained automatically.
A well-gliding, slow-moving model should come out of a vertical dive with an outstretched arm and land smoothly on the floor. An airplane launched up from the floor makes a dead loop and makes a soft landing.

Gymnast on the bar

The basis of the toy is an "H"-shaped frame made of two wooden slats, fastened in the middle with a bar.
Two parallel threads are stretched in the upper part of the frame, threaded through the holes in the hands of the gymnast figurine in the "feet up" position.
The figurine of a gymnast is cut out of veneer or other thin material.
The arms and legs of the gymnast are articulated with the body using a thin wire.
In the initial state, the gymnast hangs on the threads with his feet down, and the threads are twisted 180 degrees to the left and right of him.
If now you slightly squeeze the lower ends of the crossbar with your hand, then the threads at the top will stretch and the gymnast will do a handstand. If at this moment the ends of the crossbar are unclenched, then the gymnast, by inertia, will turn over to the other side and the threads will twist again, only in the other direction.
By changing the strength and sharpness of the pressures, you can get very interesting pirouettes of the gymnast.

Ship models with a rubber motor

Creation boat models with a rubber motor, even a very simple, already the process of creating a technique. There are already shafts, screws and brackets, there is something to think about and do.
The simplest ship model is a wooden boat with a rubber engine.


The hull of the boat is cut out of a wooden plank, and a cutting is made from a suitable block or piece of foam. Next we build a rubber motor.
For the operation of the screw from tin, we make a bracket with a tube for the shaft (we beat the nail) and bend the ears for fastening. The bracket can be attached with nails or small self-tapping screws.
We cut out the screw from tinned sheet, solder the axis from a paper clip in the middle and bend the propeller blades.
Then we put a bead on the axis as a bearing, insert the axis into the bracket and bend the hook.
In front of the body we hammer in a wire hook for an elastic band. The rubber motor is made from aircraft model or fishing gum. The number of rubber bands is selected empirically. In the free position, the rubber motor should sag about half the length of the rubber. The ends of the rubber can be covered with threads by inserting rope loops.
The rudder blade of the boat should be directly in the center of the propeller. The axis on which the rudder blade rests must ensure that the rudder turns at least 45 degrees, then the model can be launched in an arc.
For the convenience of planting a rubber motor, instead of a hook in the bow of the hull, you can put a nose bracket with a fixed handle.
On the rubber motor, you can build a submarine that can dive to a depth of up to a meter or even more.


In order for a submarine to dive into the water on the move, it needs depth rudders and very little positive buoyancy. Two pairs of depth rudders are also made of tin.
To control buoyancy, we use flat lead weights. We strive to ensure that only the cabin of the boat is visible from the water afloat. The trim should be zero, that is, the boat should not peck down either bow or stern.
Before adjusting the buoyancy, the submarine must be painted, otherwise, after several launches, the wood will get wet and the submarine will go under water forever.
The longer the hull of a ship model with a rubber motor, the greater its power reserve. The quality of the lead screw also affects the power reserve.

boomerang frame



Being in nature, you can make a very simple boomerang in two minutes - a frame of five flat wooden slats 20-25 centimeters long.
For this, the slats are intertwined according to the figure. The design is held by the bending of the rails.
The frame is taken in the hand by the lower part of the central rail and thrown in a vertical position forward and slightly upward, and it, like a real boomerang, lies on its side and, making a circle, returns back.
If it hits a hard object, it shatters into pieces. It's cool, you can collect again.

A simple car with an electric motor

The simplest car with an electric motor has a wooden frame made of plank or plywood, four wheels in pairs on two axles, no steering, the transmission is direct - from the engine shaft, which is covered with a rubber tube - directly to the rubber wheel of the car.


The meaning of such a car is to feel the excitement of construction, to see the dynamics and power of the electric motor, to study the basics of electrical engineering.
The wheels of the model are taken ready-made from a suitable toy, the axles are made from bicycle spokes. The axle mounting brackets are cut out of tin and fastened with self-tapping screws or screws.
The electric motor is attached with a bracket to the frame.
It would be better to fix the electric motor on a non-rigid elastic loop bracket, then the grip with the wheel will be more reliable.
The car is powered by a double wire (from any low-voltage adapter). Batteries and the stop-forward-back switch are assembled in any plastic box of suitable sizes.
You can play just by running after the car, or you can make a circular track and fix the wire in the center of the circle.
Developing the interest of the child, you can design with him the speed controller, steering, and then he himself will design cool controlled cars and disassemble your favorite car.

Cannon of two cannons

The children's cannon is assembled from 2 wooden cannons.
One of the ends of the first katon is planed straight, leaving the front sight, at the second end the lower edge is cut off to the level of the middle, and a cutout is made in the upper part of the sight. This will be the barrel of the gun with the shield.
The second katon is used without modification. These will be the wheels of the cannon.
You also need a piece of rail 2 cm wide and 4-6 mm thick, about one and a half lengths of the caton. This will be a kind of emphasis and hook for the ramrod.


The most intricate detail in the gun - a ramrod. Its pushing part should be round and without friction enter the barrel. Length - slightly shorter than the barrel of the gun.
The back part: width - along the width of the stop, height from above 1-2mm, height from below 2-3mm, but so as not to wedge when shooting. All edges in contact with the shield of the barrel (except the top to avoid injury) must be steep so as not to jam. The length of the back is 2.5-3 cm, on the back there is a small cutout for an elastic band. Material - birch. Pine is also good, but more often falls apart when shooting.
A cannon is assembled on threads for sewing.
First, a rubber loop is tightly tied with threads with ends on both sides. Then the emphasis is tied and immediately we tie the lower caton - the wheels across, tightly fitting the threads crosswise.
We insert the ramrod and put on the back of the rubber. The gun is ready.
We shoot with peas or whatever we find. We cock the ramrod, hook it on the edge of the stop, load the pea, put it in the firing position.
Now, if you press your finger on the top of the shield, the cannon will fire.

Bow and arrows

Bow and arrows are acceptable for playing outside the city, because an arrow shot from a bow flies relatively far.
This is not a sports bow, but its distant analogue for playing and training with its own shooting techniques and techniques.
The bow is made from an even piece of willow with skin or veres (juniper), which is even better. A piece of the barrel 50-100 cm long is selected with the necessary rigidity so that there is enough strength to pull the bow.
The bowstring is made of strong kapron thread. the bowstring is tied at the ends of the bow into cut grooves, and is tied in an unstretched state.
In order to pull the bowstring, one end of the bow rests on the ground, with the other hand and body they bend the bow and wind the bowstring into the groove to the required tension. Therefore, the groove for winding the bowstring should be made deeper with a channel for pulling.
The arrow is cut with a knife from a lath split off from an even piece of wood, precisely split off so that the knife is processed exactly along the fibers. Otherwise, the arrow will be impossible to craft.


In front of the arrow, a thick wooden tip is left in the form of a thickening, which is rounded off so that the arrow cannot do much harm.
A shallow groove for the bowstring is cut from the back of the arrow. The shooting technique is the most common, the only thing with this design is that the grip of the arrow shank is not athletic - on the bowstring, but playful - with two fingers on the arrow shank.

A simple toy self-propelled tank with an electric motor

Approximately in the same technology as for a simple car, you can build toy self-propelled tank. It is even more interesting to play such a tank, because it can overcome significant obstacles.


Its speed is small, so it is convenient to work with a wired remote control.
The simple design of the tank does not provide for its turns, only the movement back and forth.
The design of a tank's transmission is much more complex than that of a car. It uses a multi-stage gearbox made of gears from toy cars. You can choose a suitable ready-made gearbox, or you can assemble a simple gearbox yourself.
First you need to pick up the gears.
The main running gear is tightly hammered or soldered onto the axle. To fasten the gears, studs of the desired diameter are selected and bitten to the desired length.
A suitable rectangular block of strong wood is taken. The position of the gear adjacent to the running gear and, accordingly, the position of the bar are tried on.
Then we work separately with the bar. In the marked place we pin the tried-on gear, then try on and pin the next one.
We press the bar with the gearbox to the running gear and fasten it to the tank frame with self-tapping screws.


When hammering a small gear onto the motor shaft, the second end of the shaft must be rested against the anvil so as not to break the engine.
We press the gear of the electric motor to the gearbox and fasten it with a clamp.
We select the drive shafts and sloths of the tank from unnecessary cars.
Rollers are more of a problem. They can be made from playing plastic checkers.
We drill holes with a diameter of 2.5-3 mm in the centers of the checkers, connect the two checkers with the planes inward, thread a tight suitable piece of PVC tubing into the holes and hammer in the axis. As long as the measurements are correct, everything will fit perfectly.
We glue the caterpillars from a rubber strip from the bicycle camera, rubber lugs can be glued, or wooden ones can be sewn from matches. Caterpillars should be tightly put on the tank rollers. When scrolling the caterpillar, the drive roller can be rubbed with rosin.
Such caterpillars sometimes fall off during operation, but this can be corrected by restrictive collars on sloths. In general, full scope for modernization.
Tank superstructures can be glued from any suitable material.
If you put a separate gearbox with an electric motor on each tank track, you get a fully functional model. The axles of rollers and sloths must be replaced with separate axle shafts for each side.
The control unit will also have to be modified to be able to control two engines.

Good day, dear readers! In this article we will talk about homemade toys. Such toys have always been popular. This type of toys cannot be considered obsolete, because it brings a lot of benefits to the baby, and parents are very happy to make something with their own hands.

Let's see what are the benefits of such toys. DIY toys will be environmentally friendly. After all, you yourself choose the material for your creativity. In addition, the process itself will bring a lot of benefits to the child and will, such as imagination, motor skills, dexterity, perseverance, creativity.

Recently, handmade toys have become fashionable. But along with new trends, old favorite crafts are also popular.

So, what can we do with our own hands, and how it can benefit your child:

Think back to your childhood. You probably liked to dress up your dolls, sew various outfits for them, make accessories, bracelets, earrings. In order to sew a costume for your doll, you can use unnecessary scraps of fabric, old clothes, and leftover skin. Girls always look at their mothers, how they sew on a sewing machine and also want to learn, but everyone understands that a child can get hurt behind an ordinary sewing machine, and it is very large in size.

I was delighted when I saw a sewing machine for children in the Babadu children's store. Here is the solution to the problem. This machine is safe even for babies. Baby's hands are safely protected from needles. The machine does not require thread. In addition, it comes with fabrics, applications, patterns. The machine is easy to set up and easy to use.

Felt crafts

This material is unique. It behaves almost like paper, it can be cut, glued, no need to overcast. The assortment of felt is striking in its abundance. It can be selected by softness, density, pattern, color. From felt you can make toys, applications, accessories that are suitable not only for children, but also for adults. My niece loves to make different applications and even gave me a felt frame with her photo.

A friend made decorations for the wedding of the bridesmaids. Such decorations can also be suitable for children. Often, masks are made from felt for the holidays. As you understand, you can make anything out of it, everything will depend only on your imagination. By the way, such crafts are a great opportunity to spend time with your family, anyone will find something to their liking. In the Babadu online store you can find wonderful felt craft kits. I especially liked the “Sew Slippers” set.

wood crafts

I am sure that every boy in the lesson or with his dad at least once made birdhouses, stools. In addition to standard crafts, there are many different directions. You can use wood and various branches, cones, as part of the decor. Make photo frames, vases.


Now there are a lot of different blanks in stores, eyes run wide, the main thing is to choose crafts and purchase everything you need. But remember that everything you need may already be at your fingertips, show your imagination. I even made a house out of branches myself, it's very interesting.

Homemade soft toys and dolls

Since you will sew the doll yourself, you can choose any materials, accessories, filler that you like. It can be just a soft toy, or a relaxing toy. In addition to sewing, you can add different accessories to your doll's outfit.

Weaving from small rubber bands

You can purchase a set of elastic bands, which includes hooks and a loom for weaving, fasteners for the resulting bracelets, and the elastic bands themselves. Having obtained such a set, you can make your own bracelets, necklaces, rings and other accessories. Fantasy can be limitless, and most importantly, your young needlewoman will be able to make jewelry suitable for the outfit.


From such elastic bands you can weave a bag, and even some items of clothing for yourself or dress up your doll. You can find such a set for needlework on the pages of the Babadu online store, which we all love. It is called Loom Bands 600. Such a set develops imagination, improves imagination, stimulates perseverance, and is useful for fine motor skills. Suitable for children from 5 years old.

Origami

Immerse yourself in childhood, remember what an exciting activity it is. I remember I even had a favorite book on origami, from there I made all the crafts. But there were only simple toys from paper. Crafts can be from a single sheet of paper, or they can be modular, made from several parts. Most often, modular ones are flowers, animals, birds, in a word, complex figures. Such crafts are original, beautiful and pleasing to the eye.


You must have seen a white swan made of paper. This is painstaking work, but it develops the child's imagination and motor skills, perseverance. Not only animal figurines or flowers are made of paper, you can also make interior items. Thus, the craft will not only contribute to the development, but also update your interior.

For the little ones, a developing mat is suitable

You can buy it or make it yourself. Buttons, multi-colored pieces of fabric in the form of a rainbow, various rings, rattles, animals can be sewn onto the rug. The kid will crawl, turn and get acquainted with the world around him with the help of such a wonderful craft.


We only talked about a small oasis in the ocean of homemade toys. Don't forget what needs to be developed from infancy Creative skills your child. These days they are valued. In the future when the child will go in a kindergarten, school, university, when applying for a job, it will be easier for him to get comfortable and prove himself. And what he receives in childhood will be an excellent assistant for him at any stage of his life.
