It's great when there is nothing stopping to be free and independent, but stay safe. Together with developer PIK We explain how the environment helps children to grow smart, creative and self-confident.
1. Yard Park, not-yard parking
The noise of the engines, gas polluted air and the incident under the windows - a common story for most Russian cities. When parking in the yard, afraid to let children walk alone: sloppy driver can bring down the child, and overall uncomfortable attracting marginal companies. Because of this, children are left at home, play a little and move, miss the live communication with peers.
Look for areas where landscaping around the house is paid more attention. One of the latest trends - an enclosed courtyard parks with areas for active play and recreation, which are not afraid to let the child walk alone. For example, the concept of the courtyard park is implemented in a residential complex "Warsaw highway 141 '.
2. Developing children's playground, not plastic skittles
Adult normal to be afraid of children and protect them from everything. So there are "safe" area - uniform plastic construction with low hills and tiny sandbox. The idea is that it's good: it is impossible to climb high, jump somewhere and hit. But children often get injuries just because they do not know how to assess their strength and body control. If you miss the child on the fly, he does not learn to fall and grouped. If to protect him from the high hills, he will not know what the height and danger.
Playground pic provide such an opportunity. Natural materials - wood, sand, stone, water - allow the child to learn and explore the nature. High slides, ropes and suspended bridges introduce an element of risk, at the same time remains a lot of room for outdoor games.
3. Good kindergarten near the house
Children perceive the world differently than adults: look at things from a low altitude, are not familiar with textures, lines and colors. On them all the time are a variety of stimuli: toys, smart phone, TV, computer, outdoor advertising. Too bright interiors in children's rooms only amplify this effect and prevent the child to concentrate.
In a good kindergarten aware of these characteristics and take them into account in the creation and arrangement of spaces.
If the design of the kindergarten space is too many colors, it has giperstimuliruyuschy effect: children become overly excited, sometimes even disturbing and fearful.
How to distinguish nice garden:
- The design uses the main bright tone, and two or three more. The play area is can be bright colors, in the bedroom or study room - quiet complex shades.
- In finishing used natural materials with a variety of textures: wood, metal, cork.
- The images on the walls as simple as possible: abstract images and pictures develop fantasy. The information is located in the field of view of the child - to a height of 1.5 meters.
- Children can decorate the room and take part in group registration: hang your picture, to bring his toy, to paint the walls in a special place.
It is important that the space was easy to transform: to shift or remove furniture, use it for games or children's performances. Having mastered the universe, children are beginning to get bored. Changing the space develops creative thinking and learning rate.
4. The school to which the child is able to get himself
Overprotection not add child independence and their parents - free time. Children can go to school, if you go too far, for example, a few stops on the tram. The main thing is that they know how to behave in a public place. school specialists "Liza Alert," give such instructions:
- Children need to memorize your cell phone number.
- If a child is lost, it remains in place and waiting, and parents are looking for.
- Children can seek help from the police, a man with a child or someone who works in the place where they were lost.
- You can only walk on well lit and crowded streets.
- Adult man never asks for help to a child - he solves his problems by himself or with other adults.
5. Infrastructure, rather than high-rise buildings in the
For families with children becomes an insoluble problem of the lack of nearby health center, swimming pool, park and any entertainment. Among the new areas within driving distance of the objects is usually long and the ride with a small child takes a lot of effort.
Therefore, well-developed infrastructure - an undeniable plus for families with children. It is equally important to be close to home circles and sections. You can be skeptical of early English or fencing, but it's great when a child has the opportunity to try something new. If the special groups are not around, the children are left to themselves and instead theater, football and dance all day will sit on the Internet.
