Sometimes parents complain that it is difficult to captivate a child with any useful activity, or even a game. The child does not seem to understand why this is needed - although a little later he may happily do exactly what he refused 5 minutes ago. If distractibility, “field dependence” is expressed excessively, it manifests itself not only at home, but also in communication with teachers and causes inconvenience for everyone (including the child himself); this is often associated with hyperactivity and instability of attention. And here the help of a neurologist would be appropriate. But the “approach” to such children is no less important. You shouldn’t be offended or immediately refuse to do a joint activity - just as you shouldn’t insist on your own, try to organize the child by force. If we are talking about a game, developmental activities or learning in a playful way (for example, at home you learn letters, counting), then it is best to use the following techniques: - place gaming/developmental material in full view of the preschooler. If he doesn’t pay attention: start playing yourself, setting an example, and try to gradually involve the child. Show that you are interested in the game - comment on what is happening for the child (not for long - but only so that he pays attention), do it emotionally. - if the child has taken developmental material, but acts with it incorrectly (for example, he wants to put together things he knows letters into a word, but made a mistake), do not immediately correct the child’s “result”, but do this task yourself, showing him the correct option, and let him compare, see and correct the mistake: (Look, do you see where you got it wrong? Do you see , how to fix it?) And only if the child cannot cope with this, correct it yourself. - Be sure to praise the child for a well-done task. The most important thing that you will achieve with such an unobtrusive hobby is that the preschooler will train the ability to “switch” gradually, at his own pace, and will not consider himself “bad.” Gradually, classes can become longer and more varied. If they are systematic, then at some point you can emphasize: “You now know how to not only play, but also study. You’re great!” In my opinion, a good example of the use of such techniques can be seen on the children’s channel “Kapuki Kanuki"
