"Put the toys away" or "Let's play" - which phrase will a child be more excited about? The answer is obvious. But you can combine the two tasks. Let's tell you how to do it.
1. Defeat the Chaos Monster. Preschool children can be told a heartfelt story about the terrible monster Chaos coming to the Toy Kingdom and Logo-City. He turns everything he touches into a pile of garbage. Cities will be destroyed, dogs will lose their owners, and dolls will not have time to escape to their homes. Who will be able to save the Toy Kingdom from Chaos? Where is a hero when you need one?
Chances are the child will volunteer to be the hero and then you can start cleaning up.
It is important to maintain the legend during the cleanup: praise the hero for quick help, comment on the retreat of Chaos, in general, build up the atmosphere.
2. I'm a robot. This morning it was mom, but today she's a robot. She moves and talks like a real robot. She also turns everyone around her into robots. You can offer children to become the same automatic devices, dance, squat, and then ask them to pick up toys from the floor and like a robot to take away in a box. And then, according to the situation
3. We do everything by playing. You can have your child pick up a doll and hop with it like a bunny to the dollhouse. Or put her in a truck and take her home. Cubes can be stacked by color - Ginny only red, Michael only blue. Soft toys are interesting to throw into the basket from a short distance. Especially fun if mom holds the basket and at some point begins to dodge her flying toys. Alternatively, describe a toy to the child. Once he has guessed it, have him put it back in its place. Or you can offer the child to be a policeman and take the "lost ones" home.
