Wind is a movement of layers of air from areas of elevated pressure in the field of the lowered pressure. The most high pressure in that area where temperature is higher. To understand the causes of wind can be difficult sometimes even to the adult what to speak about the child.
Instruction
1. Children actively watch the world around and see how trees shake. They feel as skin receptors cold when wind blows. Gradual accustoming by wind as an everyday occurrence is included in the mechanism of natural adaptation. In principle, the child can over time guess what is wind, but if you want to accelerate process, rely on figurativeness of thinking of the kid. It is unlikely difficult scientific paradigms will be clear to the child, to abstract constructions he is not capable yet.
2. The key part in education of kids is assigned to fairy tales. Telling the kid of the fairy tale, forget about the theory of relativity, in your narration everything has to be unambiguous: good and evil, light and darkness, joy and grief. Compare wind to shout of the huge invisible magician ruling weather. Draw analogies to other vital phenomena: flight of birds, travel to the distant countries, avalanche.
3. Walking in windy weather, draw the attention of the child to what occurs around. Leaves come off the earth, in ears howls, in way it is necessary to overcome air resistance. Tell about force and speed of wind. Specify that movement of air masses such spontaneous that involves in itself other objects. Form at the child figurative associations between wind and the sun, water, the sky, a rain.
4. To demonstrate to the kid the wind nature, take a plastic cup and do in it a small hole. Fill a glass with liquid to the brim. Naturally, liquid will begin to flow from a hole out of capacity limits. Explain to the child that in a glass it was close and heavy therefore liquid "escaped" in search of happiness and the better life.
5. Compare wind to human breath. Show to the child what at an exhalation of people can create similarity of wind. Show "pushing out" of the exhaled air from a mouth, suggest the kid too to try to play wind. The movement of air can cause also swinging by hands or a towel.
6. Tell the child and about a scientific explanation what is wind and why it blows. Do not worry if at once the kid does not estimate that he is acquainted with so sacral knowledge. In subconsciousness for certain your story will be postponed, and in the future the child will apprehend the same information how long familiar and clear.
