What to do with a child in the city?

Every parent knows how challenging it can be to come up with interesting and, most importantly, useful activities for a child in an urban environment. Before you is a unique collection of ideas that will turn ordinary days into an... exciting adventure for you and your child. In the age of digital technology, when children spend more and more time in front of screens, this book offers a lively, creative, and developmental interaction through simple yet engaging activities. Here you will find over 100 activities for children of different ages: from preschoolers to teenagers. You will discover both calm activities (origami, shadow theater, board games) and energetic entertainment (flying bowling, active quests), with special attention paid to developmental aspects: many games train logic, fine motor skills, and creative thinking.
Particular attention is given to sections dedicated to scientific experiments and tricks. These activities not only entertain but also awaken in children an interest in science, demonstrating physical and chemical phenomena in an accessible playful form. The section titled «Delicious Pictures» will turn an ordinary breakfast into artistic creativity. Most of the proposed activities do not require special materials or complicated preparation – just what is available in every home: paper, clothespins, plastic bottles, lids. Step-by-step instructions with illustrations make the process of creating toys, crafts, and holiday gifts simple and understandable. This book will become an indispensable assistant for modern parents who value real communication with their children and want to fill their childhood with genuine, rather than virtual, experiences. 
For a wide range of readers.
