Sooner or later there comes a happy moment when your baby takes its first independent steps. You are happy, because it is joyful and exciting. But after a while you begin to understand that the key word is "exciting" and very responsible.
Baby items become available, devices, mechanisms, which are a potential danger to the health of your son or daughter. Sockets energized, door and window locks that kid yourself trying to open or close, traumatic cabinet doors due to its mass and inertia. But you never know how much more dangerous for children inventions and progress of the human mind. What to do?
Deny? Prohibition always generates increased interest to overcome it. "The Forbidden fruit is sweet". Follow? I think you have seen - does not always follow. Is not it better to satisfy the curiosity, allow, give plenty to explore and enough of? But to do this safely, simultaneously developing the intelligence and motor skills.
To achieve a simple task will help in manufacturing and developing equipment board for the child - bizibord. And it's the perfect time dads to show their skill and ingenuity.
To begin with bases, for example, sheet size 70cm plywood. to 70cm. In fact, the format may vary in a wide range, perhaps even on the principle that "what is at hand, or I could find." The basis can also serve as a sheet of chipboard, laminated fiber boards and other similar materials. The only important condition - the edges on all sides must be processed, that is to be smooth and not sharp.
Now, about the equipment. Carefully review the contents of the economic box, closet, garage. Visit the hardware store or market. What can I use? Be sure the electrical outlet and attached next piece of wire with a plug on the end that is sufficient for free inclusion in the socket. A pair of electrical switches, preferably of different size and type, some buttons and toggle switches.
Screw the hinges on the window a small plate, which will simulate a door or furniture door. Give her furniture or a door handle, depending on the size. Latches, bolts, door and window hooks, different constructions hooks on chains or ropes. Overhead and padlocks with loops and, of course, key. You can use the TV remote control, coil spinning. In the end, sacrifice dusting around the calculator.
Water tap or faucet. Disk for dialing the old landline phone, bicycle bell. Door chain, the top of a plastic bottle with a twist-on lid. Maybe even an old, but clean shoes washed with drawstring. Then it all depends on my father's imagination, capabilities and skills. As well as the basics sizes.
The board must be securely fastened to the wall or the side of the furniture to the child by applying force to the mechanisms, not knocked it over.
Do not use sharp, pointed, sharp objects and mechanisms. And there are no connections, electrical voltage, this stuff is already in short supply in today's homes.
You can not fill the entire board at once, but gradually add new objects, thereby introducing an element of novelty. Change the boring and the study of mechanisms for new ones. To complicate the problem, creating a maze of puzzles. The pinnacle of my father's skill could be the creation of a board to developing exciting quests from scrap materials. Experiment, dream, play with your child.
