Children's thinking development can be divided into three stages:
1, action thinking stage (1-3 years old)
There is an apple on the table. The baby is too short to reach. At this time, he found a stool beside him, so he moved the stool away and climbed up by himself, successfully reaching the apple.
Children learn to use other things to achieve their goals. Children under the age of three mainly think in action, and thinking is carried out in action.
2, the specific image thinking stage (3-6 years old)
In this period, children's figurative thinking is dominant, lacking three-dimensional sense and sense of space.
At this time, parents can help children understand the relationship between plane and three-dimensional when disassembling toys or building blocks, and play picture classification and comparison games with children, so that children can learn to summarize and abstract from the concrete;
Use children's curiosity, often ask them all kinds of questions, and guide them to observe things and phenomena.
3, abstract logical thinking ability (6- 1 1 year)
This period is a critical period to cultivate children's abstract logical thinking ability. One dog has four legs, two dogs have eight legs, and how many legs do three dogs have?
This kind of problem belongs to abstract logical thinking ability. Parents should pay attention to let their children learn to think independently and don't give them ready-made answers.
Therefore, 6- 1 1 year-old is a critical period for children to cultivate logical thinking.

And many group sports are more important than physical strength.
4. Board games and board games
