Anyone who has ceased to be surprised himself is unlikely to be able to surprise anyone, especially a child. So start with yourself. Remember what you wondered the last time and how long ago it was.
Instructions
Step 1
The way in which you surprise your child will, of course, depend on their age. For example, you can play peek-a-boo with the smallest. Hide and look out of different hiding places, joyfully exclaiming "cuckoo!". The child's confusion from your disappearance will be replaced by surprise and joy when you appear.
Step 2
With an older child, you can play an orienteering game while blindfolded. It is better to play in the yard, where there is a lot of free space. Blindfold him with a scarf, spin it around its own axis and tell him how many steps he should take to the right, left, forward or backward. Then ask him, without undoing his scarf, to name the place in which he found himself. When you untie his scarf, he will be very surprised to see where he is. Even if he guesses this place, he will still be surprised at his ingenuity.
Step 3
Surprise your child by telling him a fairy tale about what happened to you on the way home from work. For example, you went to a grocery store, and say that you met a talking squirrel in the forest, and she passed these delicious nuts for your son or daughter.
Step 4
Surprise your child by doing something atypical for you: start doing exercises every morning, shoot together a plasticine cartoon, do a headstand, show him your hometown from a bird's eye view, learn to wiggle your ears together, tell where children come from, plant flowers and wait for them to bloom, go in search of the treasure to the summer cottage, buy a microscope and look at everything, take the child to the planetarium, tell him about dinosaurs, etc.
Step 5
Often put yourself in the child's shoes and see the world through their eyes. To do this, try to find the child in yourself. Cultivate attentiveness and observation in your child, and then he will learn to be surprised himself.
