H elp Child Find Jo y in P la y tim e Amusements That Can Be Made Pleasurable and Purposeful. Children can be helped to enter tain themselves. This Is easiest when there are several children in a family and their ages are not too widely different. It Is the only child who finds It hard to amuse herself, unless she Is taught to do so. For the comfort of the child and the mother, It is wise In each Instance to show the little folk ways of keep ing pleasnntly occupied without some adult member of the family super vising the play. If not actually en tering into IL The children may have to be Instructed in ways, and methods, although they may not be aware this Is happening. In order to do this the children must he supplied with materials. For example, a little girl will thoroughly enjoy making dresses for some iavo- ,r|te paper doll. If she has gay col ored papers, and hits of lace paper with which to make them. There Is something fascinating about creating fashions. If only for a paper doll. As the little girl grows older she will find pleasure in making dresses from fabrics for a real doll, pro vided she hns dainty hits of textile to make Into frocks. Both boys and girls will find oc cupation for many hours at a time, pasting pictures onto heavy card board, and then cutting these card board-backed pictures Into many sized and shaped pieces for picture puzzles. Then there Is the further entertainment of putting the queer pieces together to reconstruct the pictures. A large box of blocks will afford a boy or girl hours of entertainment building towers. When they are old enough and build before, dusk sets In, let them further darken the room, and put an electric bulb on a lamp cord through the same opening be tween blocks, and then turn on the current The shadows of the blocks as they are thus silhouetted against walls and furniture about the room are certainly interesting, especially when the tower Is really high. A pair of blunt scissors should be one of the utensils permitted a child. With these, and some wrap ping paper, or even old newspapers, silhouettes can be cut, awkward and ungainly at first, but gradually In creasing In good looks as the chil dren become more adept. Give a child a good-sized paste board box and tell her it Is the ma terial for a house or for her paper doll family. Some time when she wants them to have a home she can make the house out of I t She need not do It now, Just some time when she feels like I t Her Ingenuity will be called Into action. Some children will merely turn the box on Its side, leave the cover off and Imagine this Is a house. Another child will cut a roof from the cover and seenre It to the box with strips of adhesive pa per. By the way, It Is a good Idea to give the child some of this paper and an extra box from which to cut and make partitions for rooms. e. 1531, B ell S y n d ica te — W NU Service.
