Riddle as a means of developing the thinking of the baby

man began to create in ancient times. comparing objects and phenomena, drawing sometimes unexpected parallels between them was a natural process of studying the world around us. this process was reflected in the riddle.

riddles in children's fairy tales

were often used as a plot component to test the character's quick wit and resourcefulness, which determined him further fate and sometimes even life. in Russian mermaid songs, young men were asked insidious questions: what grows without a root (stone.) what blooms without a flower? (fern.) what runs for no reason? (water.).

for example, A. Platonov in his fairy tale "smart granddaughter" made such riddles "who decides, he will get a foal": “what is the strongest and fastest in the world?”, “and what is the fattest in the world?”, and also “what is the softest and sweetest of all?”. and the riddles are so intricate that you won’t guess right away - “Although your riddles are wise, our sovereign judge, but I immediately guessed them: the strongest and fastest of all is the brown mare from your stable: if you hit her with a whip, she will catch up with the hare. and the fattest of all is also your pockmarked boar: he has become so fat that he has not risen to his feet for a long time. and softest of all is your downy feather bed, on which you rest. and the sweetest of all is your son nikitushka!

and Ivan the Fool more than once had to "puzzle" over riddles. in “The Tale of Ivan the Fool and Mary the Tsarevna,” the tsar, as an entertainment, asks the nobles riddles, and Ivan the Fool helps them solve:

"beat me with sticks and hammers,
keep me in a stone cave,
burn me with fire, cut me with a knife.
Why are they ruining me like this?
for being loved."

the nobleman thinks: “It’s a mystery about me. always under the blow of the royal eye, I live in stone chambers. here the tsar is destroying us all so that they have respect for the tsar ... so the answer is: boyars and nobles. and looks at Ivan the Fool. and Ivan the Fool quietly says to him: "This is bread."

A riddle is a question that describes the main qualities of an object or phenomenon.

Teaching children to find clues

one can hardly rely on the natural ingenuity of young listeners - children are not capable of solving even the simplest, in our opinion, riddles without training and education. if children find it difficult to find a solution, adults, sometimes, yielding to their requests, simply give a clue, explain to them the meaning of the riddle, thereby depriving children of the opportunity to think and reflect.

Be patient, don't rush to answer. after all, the meaning of the riddle is not in the correct answer, but in the thought process, the search for a solution through numerous selections and associations based on personal experience and observation of children.

how to teach children to solve riddles?

Teaching children the ability to guess riddles does not begin with their guessing, but with educating the ability to observe life, perceive objects and phenomena from different angles, see the world in diverse connections and dependencies, in colors, sounds, movement and change.

the development of a general sensory culture, the development of attention, memory, observation of the child is the basis for the mental work that he does when guessing riddles. therefore, children will only be able to guess the riddle when we introduce them in detail to the objects or phenomena that we are going to ask about.

When examining birds, animals, insects and observing them, the attention of children is drawn to parts of the body (head, legs, wings, tail, beak, etc.), their structural features, lifestyle, habits (where they live, what they eat, how moves, how it defends itself, etc.).

considering, for example, a goose, they note that it has a long neck, a strong long beak, red paws, membranes between the fingers; the goose can fly, cackle loudly, and if it gets angry, it hisses and pinches. knowledge of these features will help the child solve various riddles about the goose:

Long neck,
red paws,
pinching at the heels,
run without looking back. (goose.)

hissing, screeching,
wants to pinch me.
I'm going, I'm not afraid
who is this? (goose.)

we also need knowledge that specifically leads the guys to guessing.

you can watch how birds make nests (for example, how swallows and rooks make nests), ants build an anthill, a spider spins a web, to conclude that birds and insects build their homes without hands, without tools. this conclusion is the basis for guessing riddles:

without hands, without an ax a hut was built (nest.)

Men without axes cut down a hut without corners. (ants, anthill)

A sieve is hanging, not twisted by hand. (web)

There are many natural phenomena that change over time. riddles about such phenomena are built on the basis of generalized human conclusions based on the results of long-term observations:

lay in the winter, and in the spring ran into the river (snow.)

In a fur coat in the summer, and in the winter - undressed. (trees.)

but sometimes even repeated observations in natural conditions do not help to form a complete picture of the phenomenon. to solve riddles: does not burn in fire, does not sink in water; in the yard with a mountain, and in the hut with water, it is necessary to make appropriate experiments with ice and snow. they are the clue.

Using various tools, children note, for example, what a heavy head the hammer has, they see how with each blow the nail goes deeper into the board, how the saw “sings” and “screeches” when working. noting this, they easily guess riddles about the hammer and other objects:

he is thin, his head is a pood. (a hammer)

They beat the yermilka on the back of the head, he does not cry, he only hides his nose (a nail.)

With the ball, the children set: it is elastic than hit harder, the higher it jumps; the spinning top has only one leg, and he “can’t” stand on it, but he “sings merrily” when he spins. knowledge of these features helps to solve riddles about the ball, spinning top:

they beat him, but he does not cry, only jumps higher, higher;

A one-legged willow, a painted shirt, singing, dancing - a master, but standing - no way.

riddles for kids 3-4 years old

They offer riddles in which the bright ones are named, characteristics appearance(color, shape, size), those properties that children know well are noted (the voice of the animal, what it eats, habits, etc.). for example, about a cat:

furry, mustachioed
drinks milk, sings songs
soft paws, and scratches in the paws.

should not be very detailed, since the child is not able to remember many signs and correlate them with each other.

At this age, children show great sensitivity to the semantic nuances of the word, they begin to understand the meaning of figurative expressions in literary works.

Older preschoolers can make riddles, both folk and literary, among which there can be both concise and detailed.

The characteristics of objects and phenomena in riddles can be brief, but among the signs an essential, typical one should be named:
