It is not for nothing that the game is called “leading” - it is thanks to it that the child gets to know the world of objects and people around him, enters the world of social relations, the community of adults. Through play, a child learns about himself and his capabilities. “ A game is a spark that ignites the flame of inquisitiveness and curiosity,” noted V. A. Sukhomlinsky.

One of the tasks of a preschool educational institution is to create harmonious conditions for the development of gifted children, taking into account intellectual, mental, physical and age characteristics and the desire to acquire new knowledge in a particular area. Parents believe that children with a high level of intelligence should reveal their full potential, however, it is important to note that many different additional activities and clubs do not give the child the opportunity to be a child, since the parents’ high standards do not leave children time to play with their peers.
In the context of the implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard, children are taught through play, since play constitutes the main content of the life of a preschool and is his activity.

Play is a special activity that blossoms in childhood and accompanies a person throughout his life.
In play, a child develops as a personality ; he develops those aspects of his psyche on which the success of his social practice will subsequently depend. The game is a testing ground for children’s social tests, that is, those tests that children choose for self-test and during which they master ways to solve problems of interpersonal relationships .
