Bakugans and Zubles are small monsters that fold and open when a certain impact is applied to them: when they come into contact with a magnetic platform, when they hit a hard surface, for example, when thrown, etc. Despite their similarity in principle of action, these toys differ from each other.

Bakugan

Bakugan is a Japanese fighting monster that reveals its essence and true power during the battle. Bakugan itself is a ball consisting of a monster and a stand. The Bakugan ball contains the body of a whole monster, which has wings and much more. The advantageous difference from other toys is that it combines several types of toys, and besides, it fits easily in the palm of a child.

Experts assure that it is the size of the palm of your hand that is optimal for a child aged 6-9 years. Although in practice, children start playing Bakugan earlier - and from the age of 4.

Bakugans are also multi-colored and have different sizes and fillings, so they can be eaten. In addition, different heroes are hidden in each ball, which are revealed only in certain ones. The opening mechanism of Bakugan is a small spring that is activated when it comes into contact with a magnet. Thanks to this, it is possible to conduct entire studies on how and when the balls open. You can check if it will open underwater, when colliding with another Bakugan, etc.

Bakugan game is a whole strategy game. You can invent your own plot, develop moves and actions for the characters. Also, characters can be assigned their own characteristics: character, behavior, etc. Therefore, it is believed that Bakugan is a toy.

Zubles

Zoobles toys are Bakugan. They are small and mischievous creatures that live on the mystical island of Zoobl. Zubles are the development of the same company that Bakuganov made - SpinMaster.

When Zubles is in a dream, he is a normal marble. However, as soon as you put it on a special magnetic platform, it opens up into a cute creature that you can play with. Zoobles, unlike Bakugan, are cute little animals. In each of them, you can guess the features of a particular animal - cats, dogs, etc.

Zubles, like Bakugan, are quite diverse, due to which you can create entire collections, gather families and play role-playing games. In addition, modern manufacturers have tried and created an entire industry for Zubles: houses, swings, cars, etc.

You do not have to worry about storing such small toys. So, for example, the Zubles have a special house in which they can be kept all of them in a sleeping position.

Girls will definitely appreciate the sets of silicone clothes for Zubles. After all, thanks to them, you can turn magical little animals into real fashionistas.

Today Zoobles and Bakugans are very much in demand. And parents really appreciate that such toys not only entertain

The essence of the whole game comes down to the maximum lined up series of falling out of the same color, that is, how much money you have to raise the bet. I thought so until I realized one thing that I didn't attach much importance to at the very beginning of the game.

There are 3 halls with different maximum bets:

• 1 hall — from 0.01 rub to 5 rub;
• Hall 2 - from 1 rub. up to 500 rubles;
• Hall 3 - from 5 rubles. up to 2500 rub.

So, let's say we play in the first room with a maximum bet of 5 rubles. By placing a bet of 1 kopeck in case of winning, we win 2 kopecks, that is, how much we bet and won. But if you count the series:

1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512.

That is, the maximum series is 10. And then, making the tenth bet in case of a win, we will lose 12 kopecks, because we bet 5 rubles, and not 5.12 rubles. to recoup all previous bets.

So, after playing for several days, my streak only reached 9. I thought, what if I play for higher stakes in the second room. That is, a bet of 1 ruble, but I replenished my casino account with 1000 rubles in order to play the maximum series. To my surprise, the series increased to 10 and I lost.

Hypothesis with playing just 3 minutes a day

I was very upset. I began to study and watch all the videos about playing roulette. The guys everywhere promise mountains of gold, and their game schemes differ, but the most interesting thing is that they all win!

I will work at a loss

Do you think anyone wants to make their casino so that it brings only losses? And people only won in it? Even if not all. No. Never and no one.

The essence of casino algorithms is to adapt to your game strategy. Do not be surprised, but the algorithms in the casino know that you are playing according to the strategy, thus they increase the series, the same number appears several times in a row, zero. And the series increases so much that there is not enough bet and you lose all the money.

I used the method of playing alternately with a bet on one strategy, after winning a bet on another strategy - all in vain, it is calculated for a couple of bets and the casino already completely controls you.

iron composure

Not only did it take me a lot of nerves and time to get to this point and learn all these principles. Fortunately, not money. To bet on one color in a row requires incredible iron nerves, believe me, it's not so easy when you see that my color is losing and your nerves are screaming to bet on the opposite! Sometimes I broke and flew, but fortunately I tested all my algorithms on a penny).

Then I just couldn't resist and not play, because, as it seemed to me, I had finally developed a win-win game! No, it's not, NO FREE ON THE INTERNET! And there are no free casinos either. This is a myth, a divorce and a brazen fawn!

You will never know what your series will be, because applying this or that game method, the casino changes its algorithms. Yes, this is true, I have noticed this more than once - it was clearly and clearly visible!

Not even a possibility

In on-line casinos, there is not even an elementary mathematical probability with which a color should fall out.

The variant with the game only for 3 minutes was solved the very next day! yes, that's right, the algorithms are built on the principle of luring you into the game, giving you the slightest chance of winning, and then ripping you to the skin. They know in advance that no one will win anything.

20 most necessary and interesting items and toys for the development of fine motor skills: how to make and how to play, the child's correct grasp of toy parts.

20 most necessary and interesting objects and toys for the development of fine motor skills

On the main success factors in the development of fine motor skills in children. we have already talked with you in articles (massage of hands and fingers, how to properly conduct and select exercises) and \

In this article, I have compiled a list of the most interesting and unusual objects and toys for children to develop fine motor skills. And I give ideas and recommendations on how best to use them and what to look for.

1. BRIGHT SATIN RIBBONS OF DIFFERENT WIDTH.

Take bells or bells and tie bright multi-colored satin ribbons to them. Tie a string across the crib and attach the bells to it. Put the ribbon in the child's hand and ring. With the exercise, we encourage the baby of the first year of life to grab the ribbons and cause the chime of the bells.

2. TOOLS AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS:

- a spoon (we transfer balls, large beads, small pompoms from a tray into a vessel with a spoon; we shift with a spoon and sort two types of nuts - for example, walnuts and hazelnuts),
- a net (we catch small floating toys in a basin or in the bathroom with a net),
- sieve (sift through a sieve and separate the beans from the semolina).
- hammer (we drive pegs into holes of different sizes with a hammer),
- wand (we move the toy towards us with a wand if it is far away and inaccessible),
- shovel and scoop (we act with sand),
- fishing rod for magnetic fish,
- lace with a wooden needle for stringing various objects,
- a jug or ladle (we pour water from one vessel to another).

Such games with objects develop sensorimotor coordination, visual-effective thinking, coordinated work of both hands of the baby.

3. LACES, RIBBONS AND ROPES.

Instead of ribbons, you can use ribbons of different textures. Tie ribbons and ropes of different textures to sounding or ordinary toys, hang toys over the baby's bed. Put the ends of the ribbons in the baby's palms. Show how you can make toys move. The kid will grab the ribbons, training his fingers and learn the thickness and texture of the cord when grabbing.

4. WOODEN TEA SPOONS.

From the age of 3 months the baby's fingers begin to unbend gradually. Before that, they were tightly compressed into a fist. Therefore, to develop the ability to grab an object, you need to purchase toys or objects with a handle that the baby can grab onto. You can use small light Khokhloma teaspoons.

Exercises with spoons can be found in the rubric

Baby 3-4 months old give only objects with a handle shape that is easy to grip.

You can tightly tie two wooden spoons to each other in a pair (through a hole in the handle or tightly tying the spoons with a cord) and give the game to the child. With such spoons, you can knock on a chair or each other, wind a string around objects or on your fingers and unwind it, take one spoon and watch another spoon sway on a string. It will be interesting for a one year old child.

5. BALL BALL.

If you have a gymnastic complex or a Swedish wall, then make a ball throw on them for the child to experiment with balls. You will need three plastic pipes of different diameters (you can buy them at the hardware store) and balls of three different sizes from different materials. The child climbs the wall to the upper edge of the pipe and lowers the ball into it. He needs to empirically find a tube of a suitable size for the ball so that he can roll down the tube. In climbing, the baby alternates arms and legs, which is also useful for its development. At the bottom, the balls fall into the box with a different sound.

6. PIPETTE.

You will need a pear - a pipette with a plastic thin end from a pharmacy. Show her how to act. We squeeze the pear, lower the pipette into a glass of water and unclench. The water filled the pear. Then pour the water through a pipette into an empty jar. You can drip from a pipette onto the flowers drawn on a plastic modeling board (“to drink the flowers”), drip from a pipette into the cells on the palette (one drop into each cell), make colored water using watercolors and mix them (we drip with different pipettes from different jars and see what happens when mixing colors).

7. RUBBER PEAR (sold in a pharmacy).

Buy a small pear. By pressing it, a stream of air is obtained, with which you can blow off a cotton wool or leaflet from the table. You can even play football, trying to drive the cotton wool into the gate of two cubes with a jet of air. For children of the first year of life, a pear is not needed, this role is played by rubber toys - squeakers, playing with which the baby develops hand strength.

With a rubber pear, you can play rain: squeeze the pear to make splashes. This game can be played outside in the summer or at home in the bathroom.

8. HOME-MADE TOY GARLAND.

When the baby of the first year of life learns to grab toys and hold them in the palm of your hand, you can give him a toy - a homemade garland. Take toys 5-7 cm in size for her and connect them firmly with a ribbon in a circle. You can use rings of different colors and sizes from a plastic pyramid and string them on a rope, use balls, cubes and bricks from sets of geometric shapes in a garland - they require a different position of the fingers when gripping and develop the baby's handle. Do not use small toys that the baby can swallow in the garland.

You can make a garland out of plastic bottles with lids. In each bottle we make two holes opposite each other, we stretch the cord through them. We put on small toys on the sides of the vessels. Fill the vessels with different fillers. Vessels can be moved along the cord, taken in a pen, and various sounds can be extracted. For fillers, you can use any large elements that will not spill out through the holes: buckwheat, beans, peas, semolina, bells, paper clips, buttons, pasta, large beads and other items.

9. RATTLES WITH DIFFERENT HANDLE SHAPES.

From 5 months give your baby rattles with different handle shapes - this is very important! The handle can be in the form of a stick, eyelet, club, ring, dumbbell, animal tail. If you sew or knit rattles yourself, then choose a different texture for different parts of the rattle, put different fillers or bells into it. The kid will learn to make a variety of movements to capture the toy, taking into account its shape, to act differently with fingers when grabbing, to feel different textures, to peel off parts with Velcro and fix them again.

For each type of handle, the child's hand makes its own specific type of movement - sliding or loop-like movements, so this principle of selecting toys is very important for the development of the baby.

10. PLASTIC BOTTLES WITH LIDS - NOISE MAKERS (for tasks for sorting objects).

The child fills two containers with small items, sorting them. It is very important that the baby does this either with a pinch (with three fingers), or with the “tweezer grip”, that is, he grabs it with two fingers - thumb and forefinger. In this case, the remaining fingers should be bent and not interfere. Show your child the correct way to do this exercise.

We mix two types of filler in one box - peas and beans, or shells and pebbles, or buttons and small bells. And ask the kid to help you make sounding toys. We fill bottles or toys-matryoshkas, filled with filler. In one container - one type of filler. First, the baby sorts two types of objects (puts peas into one nesting doll, and beans into another nesting doll): “Katya's nesting doll loves peas, she has a polka-dot dress. And matryoshka Lena loves beans. You can then sort up to 5 items. After making a toy with a baby, we try to ring or rustle it.

11. Slingbuses.

Slingobuses can also act as a garland. They need to be tied or sewn in a special way. It is advisable to use different threads to get a different texture of the beads. Beads should be large, different colors and sizes. The baby can play with beads only in the presence of his mother. The beads must be fastened very firmly so that the baby cannot bite off and swallow the part.

12. PIECES OF FABRIC.

Child aged 5 months and over you can give only pads and shreds of fabric of different textures for games (velveteen, cloth, chintz, silk, velvet, wool, knitwear). Give your child the opportunity to grab a piece of fabric with their fingers. As soon as the child grasps the patch, pull slowly on the other corner of the patch, stimulating the baby to hold the fabric firmly in his hand. This develops his pens.

When the baby grows up, let him pick up pairs of shreds according to texture.

13. TOYS WITH MOVING PARTS.

From six months and older we need toys that can change their appearance - with movable elements, ropes for pulling parts, with rotating parts. They will encourage the baby to act with small objects and develop his pen. These can be ready-made toys, textile books and rugs, sewn patchwork balls of various textures with removable elements.

14. BALLS OF DIFFERENT SIZES.

Ball games develop the correct grasp of objects and the isolation of the thumb from other fingers of the hand. The kid begins to hold objects, clasping them with his palms and thumbs of both hands. At the same time, he begins to keep his thumb separate from the rest of the fingers - this is a special stage in the development of fine motor skills (For more information about the importance of isolating the thumb from other fingers of the baby’s handle, read the article). Balls can be thrown forward, down, up, rolled into a gate or into a hole in the ground, caught, pushed away from oneself, thrown into a basket on the floor, thrown and caught up, run holding the ball with both hands in front of you.

Balls can be rolled down the hill. To do this, make a slope of a slide with sides in the shape of the letter P from a long narrow sheet of cardboard. Put it on a stack of books or a low bench, you get a slide that can roll balls and balls. You can vary the height of the slide and see how far the ball rolled.

15. MATRYOSHKA OR BOCHATS FROM TWO HALVES.

The kid learns to disassemble and assemble the matryoshka and develops fingers and the ability to correlate the details of objects. What nesting dolls do we give the baby to play:

1 year 1 month – 1 year 3 months- two nesting dolls with a difference in size of about 3 cm. A small nesting doll does not open.
From 1 year 3 months to 1 year 6 months. Two nesting dolls with the same difference in size, but both of them are detachable (that is, they consist of two parts and open and close).
From 1 year 6 months to 1 year 9 months- three nesting dolls with the same difference in size. Two detachable nesting dolls, one - the smallest - one-piece.
From 1 year 9 months to 2 years- three nesting dolls with the same difference in size, but all three nesting dolls are detachable.
2 years to 2 years 6 months- the kid can assemble a 4-5 local nesting doll himself, all nesting dolls are revealed.
From 2 years 6 months to 3 years- the child learns to assemble a 6-seat nesting doll, while all nesting dolls are detachable (open and close).

How to teach a child to play with nesting dolls you can read in the article

The development of fine motor skills is also helped by the baby's games with pyramids of various shapes and sizes.

16. TOP.

First, the baby learns to launch the spinning top, and then the tops of large sizes. And after that, give the baby tops of a small size. Instead of a top, you can use and twist any other objects: pyramid rings, balls, plastic bowls, etc.

17. WIND-UP TOYS.

It is useful for the development of fine motor skills to start clockwork toys with a key.

18. TOY CLOTHES WITH VELCOOLS, LACES, BUTTONS, LARGE BUTTONS.

First, the baby learns to dress a doll, a bear, a bunny, and then - to dress himself.

19. CLOTHES.

Teach your child to play laundry and hang small items and toy clothes on a line to dry. The rope should be at the level of the child's eyes. The baby attaches each item with a clothespin. Teach him to “open” and “close” the clothespin, attach it to the rope.

20. POLYSTYRENE OR POLYPROPYLENE FIGURINES - "VELCCOPIES" (sets are sold in children's stores).

Teach your child to dip the figurine in water and attach it to the bathroom wall (the figurine will hold tightly), make your own compositions from the figurines. The figurine is taken with all fingers with the protrusion of the thumb - show the correct grip to the baby.
For the development of fine motor skills, it is not the number of toys or games at home that is important, but the correct capture by the child of small elements in the game.

IT IS IMPORTANT: Make sure that in all games for the development of fine motor skills, the baby correctly captures small elements of toys: with a pinch (three fingers) or a tweezer grip (thumb and forefinger). Show how it's done. First, use volumetric elements for such a capture, then flat ones (capturing flat objects is more difficult for a baby).

The baby captures large parts with a handful, small ones with a tweezer grip with fingertips.

At all times in culture there are special characters - heroes. The characters can be real or fictional. But heroes always lead, because that is their role - to be leaders. Who is a child's hero today?
What is it and where does it lead? Modern parents are faced with a huge variety of the most unusual characters that appear in the nursery faster than adults have time to realize who they are and how they got into the house. Over the past ten years, we have experienced many similar creatures - Tamagotchi, Teletubbies, Spiders, Ninjas, Petshops, Winxes, Transformers - the heroes of children's games and fantasies. Today in the "arena" two armies of new aliens - Bakugan (Bakugans) and Zubls (Zoobles). We present them together, because in part they are “relatives”.

Who are Bakugan, how do they differ from Zubles and how to play them?
Bakugan - (Japanese) is a fighting monster that reveals its true power during battle. The Bakugan toy is a ball that consists of a folded monster and a stand, and opens when it comes into contact with a special magnetized playing card.

Zubles is positioned as Bakugan for girls. Its principle is the same - a drop-down ball, but the inner content is different. If the Bakugan ball contains the body of a whole monster, most often with wings and a stand, then the Zubles ball is rather its head, in which eyes or ears can open when in contact with a magnet, and the lower part of the body can appear below. By itself, Zubles is a tiny peaceful animal from the island of Zooble (Zoobl), it can look like a bunny, a bird, a fish, etc.

Both toys outwardly represent ordinary small multi-colored balls. However, in fact, we have before us a new type of toy - a synthesis of several types of toys at once. The first coup in making this toy is something that fits easily in a child's palm - the most successful toy size for 6-9 year olds. The second luck is that the balls are conceived as multi-colored, different in size and according to the "stuffing", that is, they can be collected. The third find is a small secret - someone lives in a small ball, a creature with paws and wings, which is revealed only under certain conditions. Fourth - when revealed, the creature is filled with a special magical power. Possession of this little secret gives protection from enemies or possible fears. Fifth - a small ball stepped from the screen of a modern cartoon - provides a certain status among peers.
At first glance, Bakugan as a toy can be interesting for children of all ages - even one-year-old babies may show interest in a surprise - there was a ball that turned into a creature. However, the time of playing with a surprise toy is extremely short - a few minutes. Therefore, in this capacity, the attention of Bakugan babies will not be delayed for a long time. For a much longer time, toys are interesting as a collection of colorful balls - they can be looked at, rolled, hidden in houses, pushed together, in a word, they can be played like ordinary small balls. For children of primary preschool age (3-5 years old), balls can be an interesting material for experimentation, because they have a mechanism with a spring, which is activated by contact with a magnet. Here you can unfold a whole scientific study - where the ball will open and where not, and what if it is thrown into water, leaned against a metal surface, pushed against each other, and so on.

At the age of about 4 years, children begin to discover the character traits of the hero, embedded in his image. A child who is not familiar with the plot of the cartoon and the rules of the game, relying on external signs, for example, the color and appearance of a toy, can present it as good or evil, cheerful or sad, determine where it can live, what to eat, with whom to be friends and what to do.
How to play Bakugan? At its core, the game of Bakugan is a strategic board game where monster balls are chips. In strategy games, the child thinks through his moves, learns to anticipate the actions of a partner or opponent, and develop ingenious tactics. For children over 7-8 years old, playing Bakugan is an exciting and meaningful game in which arbitrariness, attention, memory, logical and spatial thinking, communication skills, and teamwork develop.

However, if the Bakugan themselves are just harmless balls, and the game is a useful collective activity of children, it is in the nature of the characters and in the features of the cartoon itself that the possibility of turning it into a rather destructive activity lies hidden. In 2011, the staff of the MSUPE Center for Play and Toys conducted a small pilot study of children playing with Bakugan toys. One group consisted of children who watched a cartoon and had their Bakugan balloons. In the other group, the children did not watch the cartoon, and only saw the balloons or played with them before. Watching the free play of children was recorded on video. Conducted observations of the games of children of preschool age showed the following. Most of the children who watched the cartoon about Bakugan showed signs of having an increased level of verbal and motor aggression in directing and role-playing games. Let us give an example of a transcript of the game of children 5-6 years old.
- Bakugan, they will burn, Christmas trees, the road. They will attack the railroad and the train.
- Tydysh-tydysh (the girl pushes the Bakugan and throws them on the wagons, on the train) - they crashed!
- Yes, they will all die, all the locomotives and passengers.
-Let them take the locomotives and grab them (the boy grabs the trailer with Bakugan tentacles) and throw them, and then burn them with fire, he has a fire (burns the trailer for fun).
- Yes, they have a lot of weapons, we have weapons, we will burn everyone, all adults and children too, burn everyone and abandon them.
- They come to life at night .... No, they don’t come to life ... They will eat me, they are scary
- Yes, they eat people at night and scare them!

Such content of the children's play is caused in many complex, saturated with bright aggressive scenes from the cartoon. At this age, children still cannot grasp the full complexity of the story, the plot and relationships of the characters, and also transfer the plot to the space of a complex strategic game. However, after watching the cartoon, a deep emotional experience remains, which is reflected in the children's play. In this game, the children were able to express their experiences in an acceptable game form and in an imaginary space, but the plot of the game could have developed differently if not for watching the cartoon.
Children in the control group, who did not watch the cartoon about Bakugan, demonstrated experiment games and games with everyday stories.
-Let's play with them! Hey, it's Bakugan!
- I'm closing it! They are magnetic!
- Oh, look, it's blue now, it's dark now!
- Move away, we're flying! Mine went to another planet!
- And mine flies! And - this is a ball, it opens! - these Papugans are always closed!
- Not Papugany, but Bapugany! Do they cling?
- No, you need to turn it over!
- Not required, can be on either side
The child's need to overcome himself, to strive to be the best, to be a hero today is provided by such, at first glance, strange creatures. Children are sensitive to the appearance of a new one and immediately try out new characters for strength. The content of a child's play can tell adults about what is happening with the child and what he is most interested in. Bakugan board games and Zubles director's play sets can seriously compete with computer games, distract children from monitor screens, returning the forgotten tradition of joint games "live". These sets are most appropriate for the game of younger students. At earlier ages, they can be an interesting toy for experimentation or directorial play with character toys.

Which?! Moron?! It?! Invented?! - such an idea appeared immediately after several attempts to use this product for its intended purpose. The author of this masterpiece either got stoned, or an elementary loser. Let's start in order. I saw a toy in fixprice, so bright. fascinatingly written. Like, fill the balloon with water, tie the balloon, throw it! (in the mug to the manufacturer). On the reverse side is a picture - HOW to fill the balloons with water.

Sorry, I studied physics at school 35 years ago and the laws were somehow forgotten. This is by the way. The balls are small, about three centimeters, some kind of funnel is attached to them.

It is necessary to put the ball on the funnel and TIGHTLY (according to the law of physics) put it on the water tap. The ball fits perfectly on the funnel.

Oops! - And what kind of crane is the toy designed for?! This funnel hangs on mine, and on all the taps of the apartment. Just do not pour a jet, according to the same physical laws. But I figured all this out at home, alas ..

I poked, poked, dragged this misunderstanding like a cat and a mouse and just tried to cheat. The green balloon burst, but the next red balloon was inflated and tied. It turned out so small.

Well, at least some benefit, for this one point. It may be interesting for children to inflate. But water bombs. indicated on the package, the child will not wait. Wish to the manufacturer: if you don’t know how, don’t take it. And then another thought - to go buy a new crane, or something ... for forty ruble garbage))).
