You are the best mother for your child, remember this! These games will help relieve emotional stress in a child: Game “House” Every child needs his own personal space, a space where he can to retire, to hide. And such personal space also helps to develop an understanding of personal boundaries, to literally feel them physically. Make sure that the child has such a “place of his own,” regardless of the child’s age. This is not only the child’s room, it can be houses – tents, cardboard houses, houses, like in our childhood, made of chairs and sheets, a house under the table.2. Game “cocoon” This game can be tried before bedtime, especially if the child has been overtired, scared or emotionally tense, overexcited, it will help him calm down. Create a “house” for the child, but more cramped than in the game above. This can be blanket, and the child is a sausage inside the dough, a sandwich made of pillows or the cocoon of a caterpillar that will soon turn into a butterfly. You can gently but forcefully press the blanket with your hands so that the child feels his body inside. Many children also love to be rocked like a baby , wrapped in a sheet. Important! The child should like this and not frighten him.3. Game “Kolobok” Tell the child that he is dough, invite him to lie down and now you will make a bun out of him. This game is a massage of the arms, legs, fingers, head, back. You stroke it and say how soft and airy the dough is and how pleasant it is to sculpt with it. This will help the child relax, calm down, or live through his emotions.4. Game “Ice Cream” Invite your child to imagine that he is ice cream. It was just taken out of the refrigerator. The ice cream is hard as a rock. The arms are tense, the child’s body is icy. But then the sun warmed up, the ice cream began to melt. And the body, arms, legs became soft and relaxed. The arms hung limply along the body.5. Another game “Snowman” (for tension and relaxation, like “ice cream”). At first, the whole body is also tense, the child stands straight, tenses his arms, legs, and body with effort. Then the sun comes out, it gently warms the snowman with its rays, little by little the child relaxes, and then slowly lies down on the floor, like a snowman in the sun turns into a puddle.
