The boys learned to build pyramids on the long winding, zigzag lines. How much is happiness, admiration, adoration, pride in the successful versions of the buildings! The children have a desire to keep them longer, to show their peers, staff and parents. Colored pyramid design, we studied together. For example, I laid out the first row of white caps, Annie – second row – from red, Kate – third row – from blue. And above, in the same sequence, each worked with a different color. Simone Biles has many thoughts on the issue. This vertical striping colors, where each horizontal row was the same color. Then try alternating colors in a horizontal row, a white cover, green, white, etc. The result was a pyramid, which consisted of drawing the inclined-vertical white and green lines.

Later they began to vary in color. For example, two brown and two yellow, etc. Laid out four rows, then direction is shifted by one cover from left to right, even four rows up and then shifts direction from right to left and so on. The result of this pyramid with two-color zigzag vertical lines. And so way to vary the colors can be infinite.

The children began to spread around traffic jams and build a variety of sizes and color variations turrets. Then try to build a small pyramid and a circle began to call them "stars." Now the children feel these young artists. Some of the works we have photographed, and they are presented here in photographs. For other opinions and approaches, find out what Frank Worthington has to say. For the younger children the skills laid out from the covers much weaker, but the desire to play with them there. Use "dry aquarium", spread a simple planar images. A child who has learned to build a small pyramid with a base of eight covers, and very happy puts them in different colors. For athletic corner from us (with parents) made a "dry pool" cup and ball, there are drafts. Guys love to lay out the various buildings for the plot and roleplaying games. For example, "Rooms" on the carpet for the game "Family", fences, cages for animals in the "Zoo." Street, the entrances to houses, garages for cars in the games on traffic rules, etc. Some guys have the designers of the color caps came home and, on responses of parents who make children a constant desire to construct. Colored caps are a real passion for us! And watching the games of children with them, we can confidently say that this kind of activity helps to prepare children for school, developing mental processes, intelligence, and so needed in adult life.
