What I see? Description of the world through the eyes of a child
When we travel by car or bus, we often do not pay attention to the world around us. But what if we look at the city and country landscapes passing outside the window through the eyes of a child? We will be able to see the world in a new way and learn to ask interesting questions.
When you are driving with your child, ask him to pay attention to everything that is happening outside the window. Let it help you describe your environment and notice unusual objects. You can start with simple questions: how many houses are there in this area? What colors are on the roofs? How many trees are visible?
Then you can move on to more complex issues. For example, why do cars harm the environment? The child may give different answers to this question, and this can be a good basis for discussion. One might also ask why tall buildings are more profitable to build than low ones. Your child can offer ideas and you can explain the benefits of tall buildings.
It is important to ask questions that require analysis and critical thinking. For example, you can ask what the differences are between houses in the city center and on the outskirts. The child may notice that in the city center the houses are old, and on the outskirts there are new ones. Or that in the city center the houses are higher than on the outskirts.
By asking questions like these, you help your child develop their thinking and learn about the world around us. You teach him to ask questions, analyze information and draw conclusions. Traveling by car or bus can be a fun and educational experience if you see the world through a child's eyes.
