Pop it is a hit toy. Now it can be seen in the hands of children of different ages: both a 5-year-old toddler and a 13-year-old teenager. The bursting of multi-colored bumps soothes. But not only. With pop it they have already invented a bunch of games
Toddlers can use pop it to learn colors and develop fine motor skills / istockphoto.com
25 pop it games
1. "Race" - you can beat bumps at speed: at the same time with the child on the same product, each from his side, or, timing, on different toys.
2. We burst on command: "with one, two, three or five fingers" or with the little finger, thumb, middle finger.
4. We throw a dice - we burst the number of pimples that will fall out. The last one lost.
5. We play the melody on the pimples ("proclaiming" the rhythm).
6. "Draw" with convex or "convex" cells.
7. By touch, with closed eyes, we determine how many pimples have been squeezed.
8. Divide pop it into halves mentally. One participant "pushes through" a simple drawing. The second one should repeat the pattern symmetrically.
9. Children who are learning to count: we give an assignment - an example. They push the answer with pimples.
10. We cover with paint and put color prints - stamps on paper.
11. We play boats in the bathroom: this thing does not sink.
12. We buy different geometric shapes, click on the assignment: "Click in the square."
13. For 1 move, press from 1 to 3 pimples. Turns in turn. The task is to make the opponent click on the last pimple.

14. We name the sound / syllable - press the pimple.
15. We press on the pimple in a mirror-like manner with both hands.
16. Press with both hands in different directions: up / down, right / left.
17. Rhythm program - pressed 3, missed 1.
18. We draw a pop it diagram and paint over certain cells. The task is to repeat the drawing, as in the diagram.
19. Coming up with a fairy tale: a new pimple - a new hero / event. Or spreading a sentence - a new bubble = a new word.
20. Press and perform an action with hand movements. For example, they pressed - slammed, pressed - banged with their fists.
21. We press and accompany with sounds. For example, we clatter our tongue, etc.
22. We play associations. The game requires several people and one pop it field. Someone is the first to name any word by pressing one of the buttons. Then the next one says a word that is associated with the one that just sounded. The third word should be associated with the second, the fourth with the third, etc. Until the whole field is "drunk".
23. Playing with your favorite words. On a square field, we play with rulers. On the margins of a different form - come up with what will be better for you. We give the child any letter that you need to call your favorite words by pressing the buttons one after the other. On a square field, each row has words with a different letter. For example, the favorite words of children with the letter "m": mom, ice cream, dream. In short, every age will have its own words, and thanks to this game you will learn a lot about what the child likes.
24. Game "Thank you". The child presses with the adult in turn until they press the entire field on one side and the other. Each pimple begins with the words "Thank you today for .." or "Today I really liked how you are."
25. Find the ball. This game requires one silicone platform and a small ball that is smaller than the half-sphere hole. The goal of the game is to find the ball without clicking on the bump. To do this, throw the ball under the pop-it so that none of the players can see which section it is under. Then the players take turns calling the column and the row of the cell, under which, in their opinion, the ball is hidden, and pop it. If the bubble has burst, then there is no ball under it, and the move is passed on to the next player. The game continues until the ball is found.
