I am Daddy

  


  I am Daddy. My son is a year and a half. A wonderful age! The angel’s smile (or the child's elfin smile), unconditional love and interest in everything else. "Linger you now, you are so fair!" I want to enjoy every moment I spent in the society of the God’s thing. But! I am sure that most fathers feel mother pressure. Masked pressure. The mom is sure to be happy, if the dad spends more time with the child especially with son! Nevertheless, at this age, children are very much tied to their mom. The dad will never take the mother’s place. However, it is quite possible (I think it is quite necessary) build a small but magical world that will belong only to the Father and his baby.
Leave unkind (IMHO) poems by Agniya Barto, endless kid songs, and drawing with crayons to the mom. She will cope. The basics of English, letters and numbers may be delegated to Grandmas and Grandpas.
  I want to keep a small world, which will belong only to my son and me. Now, this world includes swimming, chess and music.
Let us go step by step.

  Swimming pool lessons 

is a very useful activity.  It strengthens the spine, immune and nervous system. Excellent breathing exercises! Moreover, the kid just like it. The child’s positive emotions are priceless (they are given to Dad). The kid really likes to swim in the pool!
At first, we joined the group “Mother and baby”, which is sports with an instructor. But after the first visit, the administration rejected our attendance at these sport classes, because we are "Dad and baby" (it should be noticed that that it is illegal, as it is gender-based discrimination, which runs counter  to the Russian Federation Constitution). But we were not upset about it and after scratching our heads, decided that it would be we even more convenient to visit the swimming pool on our own! We have remembered the exercises we remember and if there are any questions, I will take some training sessions with an instructor. Now we are not tied to the timetable. We go to the swimming pool three times a week, and it's great.

  Chess. 

  Of course, at the age of a year and a half, it is impossible to teach a kid to play chess. But I do not set this goal for myself. I want to teach him chess pieces, interest him in this game, and, it is the most importantly, create our own area. Several times a week for 20 minutes, we play with the chess figures. This time belongs to me- Dad. To Dad only! I hope that in the future, in 3 or 4 years, when my kid will be able to begin to study the game, it will help him. I think it is great, because a game of chess not only develops the intellect, but also helps to prepare for school (perseverance, the ability to calculate the actions and reactions). I don’t want my son to be a boy wonder, but I really want him to be an intelligent boy. I have found that intelligence and kindness go hand in hand, and this, in my opinion, is the most important thing.
So we are playing pawns, horses and elephants and Dad is studying the book "Chess for the little ones" by I.G.Sukhin.

  Our third “sanctum sanctorum” is music. 

  They write and say a lot that Mozart's music helps towards a better brain building. On the Internet, there are lots of special videos for children. But for us all is easier and more reasonable. If Mozart piano concerts, then performed by Rubinstein, and if Bach music, of course, performed by Glenn Gould. Neural connection are formed in childhood with an incredible speed, and, as compared with any adult, a kid is a genius. I believe that Music is not just a Lullaby, but also aesthetic enjoyment for children. Let us form a sense of beauty and enforce good taste.

I am sure that over time the bond between the dad and his child becomes stronger. There are common activities (section, shopping, millions of interesting questions, etc.). But, while my son is a year and a half, I am able to find the small islands that belong only to us, and it makes us happy.
