Magnetic educational game "Learning time!"

A child up to about 7 years old thinks graphically. It is very difficult for him to realize what cannot be seen, heard and touched. Therefore, mastering the concept of time does not develop until a certain age, and for the baby there is only the present. For example, memories are not tied to a specific date, but to some bright event during that period. This, of course, does not mean that you just have to wait until this very age, when the child will understand everything himself. No, you need to start studying much earlier, developing abstract thinking, which, in the end, will help to master the concept of time. And you need to start by understanding the sequence of events and understanding the time of day. The child should understand the meanings of the words “before”, “after”, “then”, “now”, “before”, “after that”, “first”, “day”. Especially important (and maybe this is why it is so hard for the baby) "yesterday", "today", "tomorrow". But you can't do without them. After that, you can master the clock. To do this, you need to know the numbers, understand the concepts of "second", "minute", "hour".
