Activities that help to activate the development of small motor skills in preschool children

The development of fine motor skills in preschool children is always at the center of attention of educators and parents, because oral speech in a baby begins to form only when the accuracy of the fingers of his hands reaches the required level. The relationship of these skills is undeniable.

The development of fine motor skills in preschool children, which corresponds to the age norm, is one of the signs of their readiness for training in the first grade. And its underdevelopment will not only complicate the educational process, but will not give the child the opportunity even to participate in it.

The system of exercises for the development of small muscles responsible for the movement of fingers, with regular exercises will increase the efficiency of the child's brain, and with it memory and attention will improve.

Recommendations for the organization of children's classes on the formation of movements of complex coordination

1. Due to the fact that the development of manual activity presupposes the appropriate degree of maturity of brain structures, it is ineffective to force the child to engage. It is necessary to begin with the exercises feasible for him, the successful fulfillment of which will bring the child pleasure and confidence in his capabilities.

2. Regularity is required in the exercise.

3. Adult control is required for the accuracy of the movements. Otherwise, a positive result can not be guaranteed.

4. To begin, you do not need to exercise for more than 3-5 minutes. The increase in time is due to developing games and other activities.

5. The pace of tasks should be comfortable for the child.

6. The kid needs to help, praise and support him.

7. Before each session it is necessary to demonstrate the progress of the exercise and give a short and precise instruction.

8. Instructions should be repeated from time to time, and the tasks are spoken out loud.

Education of children of preschool age should be carried out by parents unobtrusively and benevolently. The need to engage in the preparation of the baby for school, the fulfillment of tasks for the development of the fingers and the muscles of the hands for the development of the child should not cause an increase in psychological tension.

Often underdevelopment of fingers occurs in those children, who are protected from families in self-care. Such children at five years old do not know how to dress or undress independently. They find it difficult to tie a hat or shoes, fasten a jacket or a shirt. The movements of the hands when dressing and undressing are also training. Raising the child's independence takes, of course, a small person from the zone of total control of adults, but you can always agree!
