TIPS-INSPIRED FAIRY-TALE GAMES AS A PRACTICAL TOOL FOR DEVELOPING PRESCHOOLERS' THINKING: FROM COMPARISON TO RESOURCE-BASED PROBLEM SOLVING

This article presents a practice-oriented approach to developing preschool children’s analytical and logical thinking through TIPS-inspired educational games embedded in well-known fairy-tale plots. Three game formats—“The Little House (Mansion),” “Masha the Scatterbrain,” and “Little Red Riding Hood: The Transformed Grandma”—are described as methodological scenarios that cultivate comparison, classification, functional reasoning, creativity, and communication. Special attention is given to techniques of identifying object properties, searching for resources, moving toward an Ideal Final Result (IFR), and resolving contradictions in a child-friendly form. The proposed games can be implemented in group and individual settings and may serve as a practical resource for preschool educators and methodologists.
