V. Bogat "In hot Africa: We develop the creative thinking of preschoolers 4-6 years"
For more than 20 years, the theory of solving inventive problems (TRIZ) has been used in domestic pre-school pedagogy, which allows the child to solve non-standard problems facing him.
The child learns to find the right solutiontask through the identification and formulation of contradictions, using different resources. Seeking to achieve the ideal, that is, the best solution, the child does not go to one, but even to several correct answers, which is an important criterion of creative thinking. Solving problems facing the heroes of these stories, children learn to think creatively, while reducing the stereotyped thinking and, most importantly, they understand that from any embarrassing situation one can always find a way out!
Evil Porcupine
Once in a bush, past which smalla lion cub went to the lake, a porcupine settled. He did not like very much when someone approached his home and often frightened the lion, releasing his long needles. The lion said to the tortoise: "You imagine, it's so loud hissing, and even threatens to prick me with its terrible needles, if I get close to the bush." The intelligent turtle thought and said: "So you do not have to go close to the porcupine dwelling." "But how can I then go to the lake, because the bush is just on the way there?" - the lion cub was surprised. "And you go to the lake when the porcupine goes hunting or other business," the turtle advised. The lion cub thought: "I wonder how I find out if the porcupine has gone hunting or is sitting in a bush?" He did not dare to ask about this turtle.
Help the lion to solve this problem.
