The best mobile and logic games for children from 5 to 10 years old

Introduction

Games are the best remedy to make the process of raising a child pleasant and useful for himself and for the adults around him. While playing, the child learns the world around him, studies the phenomena that he has to face, grows up and learns to communicate with people.

The mobile and logical games presented in this book will help parents, educators, teachers, nannies and tutors to usefully organize a child's leisure time, instill in him the necessary skills and abilities, develop his physical strength and intellectual abilities.

Working with children in this book, adults will be able to develop the communication skills that children have, and children will learn how to work in a team.

Games are selected taking into account the age characteristics of preschoolers and younger students, their interests, physical development and mental abilities.

Outdoor games

In the physical education of children from 5 to 10 years old, outdoor games occupy the most important place. They allow you to simultaneously influence the motor and mental sphere of the child. Such games consist of a wide variety of movements that help strengthen muscles, accelerate metabolism and harden the body. With the help of games, dexterity, speed, strength, endurance are developed. In addition, outdoor games have a positive effect on the development and improvement of not only the physical, but also the personal qualities of the child.

Outdoor games are of particular importance for the formation of a children's team. By systematically watching the games, parents, teachers or educators see how relationships between children change and improve, as well as how the skills and qualities of each child develop. Influencing the children's team through games, parents and teachers should strive to ensure that each child can subordinate personal interests to the interests of the team.

An important feature of any outdoor game are the rules. They help children understand the concept of the game and game actions. The fulfillment of these rules requires certain efforts from the child, limits his spontaneous activity, which makes the game interesting, exciting and useful for the development of the child.

In the organization of outdoor games, counting rhymes are of no small importance. They help children, without quarreling, determine the driver or the one who starts the game first.

A child who knows the counting rhyme pronounces it in a singsong voice and, with each word, points in turn to the participants in the game standing in a circle. The driver must be the one on whom the last syllable of the rhyme falls.

Children can say counting rhymes several times, until everyone except the last one, on whom the final word falls, leaves the circle. It is also possible to determine the leader in such a way that the counting rhyme sounds every time from the beginning, as soon as the one on whom the count ended leaves the circle. This continues until two players remain and it becomes clear who exactly will be the driver.

If you need to choose two drivers in the game, children can do this using a counting rhyme: first choose the first, and then the second.

Examples of counters:

80. A problem invented by the learned monk and mathematician from Ireland Alcuin (735-804).
The peasant needs to be transported across the river wolf, goat and cabbage. But the boat is such that only a peasant can fit in it, and with him either one wolf, or one goat, or one cabbage. But if you leave the wolf with the goat, then the wolf will eat the goat, and if you leave the goat with the cabbage, then the goat will eat the cabbage. How did the peasant transport his cargo?

Solution 1.: It is clear that we have to start with a goat. The peasant, having transported the goat, returns and takes the wolf, which he transports to the other side, where he leaves him, but he takes and carries the goat back to the first bank. Here he leaves her and transports the cabbage to the wolf. Then, returning, he carries a goat, and the crossing ends happily. Solution 2: First, the farmer again transports a goat. But the second one can take the cabbage, take it to the other side, leave it there and return the goat to the first bank. Then transport the wolf to the other side, return for the goat and again take it to the other side.

A person who cannot swim needs to cross to the island with a rope, the length of which is a little more than 200 meters. How can he do it?

Having tied the rope with one end to a tree growing on the shore, it is necessary to go around the lake with a rope stretched over the water and tie the other end of the rope to the same tree. As a result, a double rope will be stretched between the trees for crossing to the island.

In fact, he will drink the last pill not in an hour and a half, but in an hour. The person immediately drinks the first pill. Half an hour passes. He takes the second pill. Another half hour passes.

261. In the dense Murom forest, ten sources of dead water gush out of the ground, they are numbered from No. 1 to No. 10.

From the first nine sources, everyone can take dead water, but source No. 10 is located in Koshchei's cave, into which no one except Koshchei himself can get.

The taste and color of dead water is no different from ordinary water, however, if a person drinks from any source, he will die. Only one thing can save him: if he drinks poison from a source whose number is greater. For example, if he drinks from the seventh source, then he must definitely drink poison No. 8, No. 9 or No. 10. If he drinks not the seventh poison, but the ninth, only poison No. 10 can help him. And if he immediately drinks the tenth poison, then nothing will help him.

Ivan the Fool challenged Koshchei to a duel. The terms of the duel were as follows: each brings a mug of liquid with him and gives it to his opponent to drink. Koschei was delighted: “I will give poison number 10, and Ivan the Fool will not be able to escape! And I myself will drink the poison that Ivanushka the Fool will bring me, I will drink it with my tenth and be saved!

On the appointed day, both opponents met at the agreed place. They honestly exchanged mugs and drank what was in them. It turned out that Koschei died, but Ivan the Fool remained alive! How did it happen?

Ivanushka gave Kashchei plain water, and it turned out that Kashchei drank poison from the 10th spring. Before the duel, Ivanushka himself drank poison from any one source and it turned out that he washed down the poison with Kashcheev 10, and as a result, this poison was neutralized ..

Highlighted in yellow, add as a note to the same task, we have it.

268. The missionary was captured by the savages, who put him in prison and said: “From here there are only two ways out - one to freedom, the other to death; two warriors will help you get out - one always tells the truth, the other always lies, but it is not known which of them is a liar and which is a truth lover; you can ask any of them only one question.” What question should be asked to get out to freedom?

It is necessary to turn to any of the warriors with the following question: “If I ask you, does this exit lead to freedom, then you will answer me “yes”?” With such a formulation of the question, the warrior who lies all the time will be forced to tell the truth. Suppose you, pointing him to the exit to freedom, say: “If I ask you, does this exit lead to freedom, will you answer me “yes”?” In this case, it will be true if he answers “no”, but he needs to lie, and therefore he is forced to say “yes”.

272. A train leaves Moscow for Vladivostok every day. Also every day a train leaves Vladivostok for Moscow. The move takes 10 days. If you left Vladivostok for Moscow, how many trains going in the opposite direction will you meet during the trip?

At first glance, it may seem that during the trip we will meet ten trains. But this is not so: we will meet not only those ten trains that left Moscow after our departure, but also those that were already on the way by the time of our departure. This means that we will meet not ten, but twenty trains.

Correct answer

273. There is an easy and cheap way to travel, which, surprisingly, no one uses. As you know, the Earth rotates around its axis, and quite quickly (in just 24 hours, each point of the earth's equator travels approximately 40,000 km - a path equal to the length of the equator). So, instead of going somewhere by train, or flying by plane, or sailing on a ship, it is enough for us to rise high above the ground on hot-air balloon or an airship and stay there motionless for some time. During this time, the Earth will turn to us with another part of its surface and it will only be necessary to descend to the right place. Is this reasoning correct? If not, what is wrong with it?

This way of travel is, of course, unsuitable. The atmosphere, attracted by the Earth, rotates with it. And even if the atmosphere were motionless, then, having risen into it from the rotating Earth, we would continue the earth's movement by inertia for some time. In addition, if the atmosphere were motionless, and the Earth would continue to rotate in it (and fast enough: see the condition of the problem), then in this case the greatest hurricane would not stop raging on Earth, which would make not only any travel impossible but also human life itself.

Correct answer

274. Is it possible to boil water on an open flame in a paper box?

The question of the problem, at first glance, seems very strange, because if you hold paper over a fire, it will definitely catch fire. But the fact is that the boiling point of water is much lower than the ignition temperature of paper. Since the heat from the flame is taken away by the boiling water, the paper cannot reach the required temperature and therefore does not ignite. It is only necessary that the paper is thick enough, otherwise the water will simply tear it and pour out onto the flame. A cardboard box is quite suitable for boiling water. The same explanation underlies such a phenomenon as a fireproof piece of paper tightly wound around a metal rod (or steel nail) and brought into the flame of a candle. The rod will take the heat of the fire, preventing the paper from heating up to the desired temperature and catching fire.

At first glance, it may seem that a bottle costs 1 ruble, and a cork 10 kopecks, but then a bottle is 90 kopecks more expensive than a cork, and not 1 ruble, as by convention. In fact, a bottle costs 1 r. 05 k., and the cork costs 5 k.

Correct answer

279. Katya lives on the fourth floor, and Olya lives on the second. Rising to the fourth floor, Katya overcomes 60 steps. How many steps does Olya need to climb to get to the second floor?

At first glance, it may seem that Olya walks 30 steps - half as many as Katya, since she lives two times lower than her. Actually it is not. When Katya goes up to the fourth floor, she overcomes 3 flights of stairs between floors. This means that there are 20 steps between two floors: 60: 3 = 20. Olya climbs from the first floor to the second, therefore, she overcomes 20 steps.

Correct answer

280. How to pour out exactly half of a mug, ladle, pan and any other dish of regular cylindrical shape, filled to the brim with water, without using any measuring instruments?

Any dish of the correct cylindrical shape, when viewed from the side, is a rectangle. As you know, the diagonal of a rectangle divides it into two equal parts. Similarly, a cylinder is bisected by an ellipse. It is necessary to drain water from a cylindrical dish filled with water until the surface of the water on one side reaches the corner of the dish, where its bottom meets the wall, and on the other side, the edge of the dish through which it is poured. In this case, exactly half of the water will remain in the dishes:

Correct answer

281. Three hens lay three eggs in three days. How many eggs will 12 hens lay in 12 days?

You can immediately answer that 12 hens will lay 12 eggs in 12 days. However, it is not. If three hens lay three eggs in three days, then one hen lays one egg in the same three days. Therefore, in 12 days she will lay: 12: 3 = 4 eggs. If there are 12 hens, then in 12 days they will lay: 12 4 = 48 eggs.

The parrot can indeed repeat every word it hears, but it is deaf and does not hear a single word.

The reasoning is wrong. It is not necessary that Sasha Ivanov eventually visit Mars. The external correctness of this reasoning is created due to the use of one word ("man") in it in two different senses: in the broad (abstract representative of humanity) and in the narrow (concrete, given, this particular person).

Correct answer

287. It is often said that one must be born a composer, or an artist, or a writer, or a scientist. Is this true? Is it really necessary to be born as a composer (artist, writer, scientist)? (The task is a joke.)

Of course, a composer, as well as an artist, writer or scientist, must be born, because if a person is not born, then he will not be able to compose music, draw pictures, write novels or make scientific discoveries. This joke problem is based on the ambiguity of the question: "Do you really have to be born?" This question can be understood literally: is it necessary to be born in order to engage in any type of activity; and also this question can be understood in a figurative sense: is the talent of a composer (artist, writer, scientist) innate, given by nature, or is it acquired during life by hard work.

288. In order to see, it is not at all necessary to have eyes. We see without the right eye. We also see without the left. And since we have no other eyes besides the left and right eyes, it turns out that neither eye is necessary for vision. Is this statement true? If not, what is wrong with it?

The reasoning is, of course, wrong. Its external correctness is based on the almost imperceptible exclusion of one more option, which in this reasoning also had to be considered. This is an option when not a single eye sees. It was he who was omitted: “Without the right eye we see, without the left too, which means that the eyes are not necessary for vision.” The correct statement should be: “Without the right eye, we see, without the left we also see, but without two together we cannot see, which means that we see either with one eye, or the other, or two together, but we cannot see without eyes, which, thus necessary for vision."

289. The parrot has lived less than 100 years and can only answer yes and no questions. How many questions does he need to ask to find out his age?

At first glance, it may seem that a parrot can be asked up to 99 questions. In fact, you can get by with a much smaller number of questions. Let's ask him like this: "Are you over 50 years old?" If he answers "yes", then his age is from 51 to 99 years; if he answers “no”, then he is from 1 year to 50 years old. The number of options for his age after the first question is halved. The next similar question: “Are you more (you can ask - less) 25 years old?”, “Are you more (less than) 75 years old?” (depending on the answer to the first question) reduces the number of options by four times, etc. As a result, the parrot needs to be asked only 7 questions.

290. One man who fell into captivity tells the following: “My dungeon was in the upper part of the castle. After many days of effort, I managed to break one of the bars in the narrow window. It was possible to crawl through the resulting hole, but the distance to the ground was too great to simply jump down. In the corner of the dungeon, I found a rope forgotten by someone. However, it turned out to be too short to be able to go down it. Then I remembered how one wise man lengthened a blanket that was too short for him, cutting off part of it from below and sewing it on top. So I hurried to split the rope in half and re-tie the two resulting parts. Then it became long enough, and I safely went down it. How did the narrator manage to do this?

The narrator divided the rope not across, as it most likely might seem, but along it, making two ropes of the same length out of it. When he tied the two pieces together, the rope became twice as long as it was at first.
