Introduction:
Preschool children, i.e. children between
the ages of 3 and 7, have the most important period to
develop their thinking skills. During this period, children
will have many opportunities to learn, understand and
form logical thinking skills for the world around them.
Logical thinking is the ability to solve problems,
understand causal relationships, and express one's
thoughts consistently. This article will consider the
methods of developing logical thinking skills in
preschool children.
1.
Games and activities

activities are recommended to develop logical thinking:
-
Constructors
: children develop logical thinking skills by
creating shapes using different constructors. In the
process, they develop the skills of realizing their
thoughts, solving problems and creativity.

thinking. They learn to form a whole image by
combining different parts.
-
Role-playing games
: children develop logical thinking
and social skills by playing different roles. For example,
through shopping in the store, doctor and patient
games, they learn to solve problems.
2. Logical questions and problems
Asking children logical questions and creating different
situations to solve problems is important in the
development of logical thinking. For example:
- Question and answer games
: asking children simple
logical questions, motivates them to think and answer.
For example, "if it rains today, what do we do?"
questions.
- Problem-solving situations
: giving children simple
problem-solving situations, such as "how can we
prepare
food
if
we
don't
have
enough
nutrients?"questions.
3. Books and stories
Reading books and telling stories to children plays an
important role in developing logical thinking. Through
stories, children learn to understand cause-and-effect
relationships, analyze characters, and observe events
in a logically consistent manner.
A) interactive books
: children can develop their
thinking by teaching interactive books, asking them
questions, and discussing events.
C) telling a story
: telling stories to children and asking
them for their opinions will help them develop their
logical thinking skills.
4. Arts and creative activities
Art and creative activities are important in the
development of children's logical thinking skills.
Through drawing, handicrafts, music, and dance,
children develop expression, creativity, and logical
thinking.
Drawing
: teaching children how to draw, the student
develops their imagination and increases their logical
thinking skills.
Crafts
: creating crafts from different materials,
develops creative thinking and logical relationships of
children.
5. Logical games and exercises
Logic games: logic games and exercises designed for
children, such as "Who, when, where?"to develop their
thinking skills through games such as.
Working with numbers and shapes: children learn to
think logically by working with numbers and shapes.
For example, games related to colors, shapes and
numbers.
6. Social activities
Working in a group-encouraging children to work in a
group, expressing their thoughts and helping to solve
problems together. In the process, children learn from
each other.
The main thing is to develop the logical thinking of the
child in the way of play. As the lesson did, its forced
development does not lead to a positive result. If a
preschool child is able to develop in every possible way,
then it will be easy for him to achieve success later.
Games, logical questions, books, art and creative
activities are important for the development of logical
thinking skills in preschool children. These methods help
develop children's thinking skills and prepare them for a
successful future life. Preschools and parents are
required to help children develop their logical thinking
skills by using these techniques.
