Timer
Almost every kitchen has a timer (or a microwave with a timer). Each time you set the time on the timer, announce out loud “1 minute,” “5 minutes,” etc. And when the timer beeps, remind your baby again how much time has passed.
Regular exercises with a timer develop a sense of time. In addition, the timer can be used as a “recess bell.”
For example, you are cooking, and your child asks you to read a book. Set a timer for a few minutes and explain to your child that you will be reading when the recess bell rings. Don't forget to keep your promise!

Appendix 1 Materials for the project Poems about the profession “Cook” B. Zakhoder. Cooks. How easy it is to make lunch! There is nothing difficult about this, it’s as simple as shelling pears: This is it – and you’re done! (If mom cooks dinner.) But it happens that mom has no time, And we cook dinner for ourselves, And then (I don’t understand what the secret is!) It’s very difficult to cook dinner! ****** Cook, cook, cook! Young, remote! The cook banged with a rolling pin, the cook rattled the bowl, took apart spoons and forks and filled pots. The cook did not sleep all night - he served the dinner party, he called all the guests, and treated him to a delicious dish. The guests ate, drank, praised the cook, emptied the boilers, drove off home, and left the cook only to sort out the dishes - Lie down, poor cook, without eating in bed! ***** Cups, spoons, ladles, Matryoshka dolls took a dip, Gurgle! ***** Give the cook food: poultry, dried fruits, rice, potatoes... And then delicious food awaits you. ***** Cook Vasya very deftly peels carrots with a knife. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Back and forth and back and forth. He stirs the soup with a ladle And crushes the potatoes with a masher, Cuts the dill with a knife, Whip - whack - whack and into the bowl! It turned out delicious so that he personally takes samples from the dishes. Everything will be salted, peppered and bitter with mustard. ***** And today in our group there will be a new game! All the girls are cooks, and the boys are cooks. We'll put on robes, Caps on our heads, And pots with scoops, Lay out on the tables Our cubes - potatoes And carrots - pencil. Even a ball will become an onion. Our soup will be delicious. Let’s add salt, stir, and pour it into plates. We'll have fun sitting the dolls down and feeding them before bed. We are cooks today, We are cooks today. But let's wash the plates, After all, the game is over.

Paintings with salt
Many of you have probably seen and admired amber paintings made by artists. A similar work of art can be made using regular coarse table salt.
While dinner is cooking on the stove, draw a winter landscape with your child on a piece of cardboard. Apply a thick layer of glue (preferably PVA) to the roofs of houses and tree branches with a brush and sprinkle salt on top. When the glue dries, any unadhered salt residue can be shaken off. Using this technique you can make a beach, a Barbie doll dress decorated with diamonds, and so on.
