The life of any child. They are useful, so the child learns to think logically, compares the qualities of different objects, and also learns the world. However, for some reason it is generally accepted that only natural phenomena, simple things or fruits and berries can be hidden behind verbal comparisons. However, this is an absolutely wrong judgment. Riddles about a washing machine, for example, kids nowadays guess very quickly.
Why are riddles needed
Every child needs riddles. As soon as he learns to speak and begins to learn about the world around him, he can already ask the first riddles. Of course, the washing machine riddle is tricky for a two- or three-year-old child, although it all depends on his wits.
So, in general, all riddles are useful. First of all, this allows the kid to explore the world, to recognize its individual parts by descriptions. And also riddles can attract a kid to poetry and reading in general. Thanks to the beautiful poetic form, often with rhymes, jokes, riddles about a washing machine or other objects are just great for young children. Older children prefer hard-level puzzles. Here you can already involve logic, and not just describe the properties of an object.
Riddles for children about the washing machine. How to compose
Many parents understand that the supply of familiar riddles is running out. Not every kid is interested in hearing about the fact that the grandfather is wearing a hundred fur coats, as well as about two rings and two ends and a carnation in the middle. No, now the child is actively using different techniques, so it is possible and necessary to take into account the changes in the modern world.
Therefore, a parent can independently come up with a riddle about a washing machine. To do this, it is not necessary to clothe everything in a poetic form, it is enough just to list the properties of the object. First of all, this is what household appliances are intended for. Of course, this is the laundry. That is, this unit makes the dirty - clean. But it can also be a dishwasher, so it should be emphasized what exactly can be cleaned. It is not recommended to use synonyms for the answer word in the riddle about the washing machine. That is, you should not say the words "machine" and "washing". However, for a very young child, you can omit this rule.
Examples of riddles. We invent it ourselves
The riddles that the parent makes can be both in the form of prose and in the form of verse. The child will not find fault with bad rhyme, but he will remember this much faster.
So, a riddle poem can sound like this:
She washes very clean
Although the clothes of a chimney sweep
At least my favorite socks.
It will be very, very clean!
In the form of prose, you can simply list the qualities of the device. "She cleans up our clothes, helps me clean up dirt from socks and shirts and dresses." You can also indicate those qualities that are inherent in a particular type of machine, for example, where it is located in the apartment or what color. You can also indicate what is next to it or directly on it.
It is not so difficult to create a riddle yourself. However, if there are difficulties, you can find a suitable option, you just have to try.
