Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a knotting learning tool which clearly shows a knotting process to an infant when an instructor like his or her parent teaches the infant how to knot a string.SOLUTION: The knotting learning tool is configured by attaching two pairs of strings 2 and 3 and strings 4 and 5 distinguishable with colors or patterns, to a sheet 1, where strings of two pairs of strings on the left side of the infant and the instructor have the same color or pattern and those on the right side of the infant and the instructor have the same color or pattern. One of the two pairs of strings is used by the instructor to show a model, and the other is used by the infant. Preferably, flexible rigid strings for shape retention are attached to front end parts of one of the two pairs of strings, namely, the pair of strings for use by the instructor, and the other of the two pairs of strings has not shape retainability.

Description

  The present invention relates to a teaching tool for teaching an infant how to tie a string or the like.

Conventionally, teaching tools for letting you become familiar with the string have been proposed. For example, the idea of Japanese Utility Model Sho 63-191365 is to prepare a hole through which a string is passed on the paper on which the design is written, and practice to pass the string through this hole.
However, even if you get used to handling the strings by using such teaching tools, you cannot practice tying the strings. And it is difficult for teachers such as parents to teach how to tie a string, and it is often felt painful for their children.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-191365

When parents and other leaders teach infants how to tie a string, it is difficult to show the infant the middle of the way the parents are doing the tying.
However, the above-mentioned conventional proposal does not solve these problems.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to obtain a teaching tool that can clearly show an intermediate progress to an infant.

The knotting instructional teaching tool of this invention attaches two sets of two pairs of strings that can be identified by color or pattern to the sheet, and the color or pattern is the same color on the left side and the right side of the person who ties the string in each group Alternatively, it is configured as a pattern.
The pair of strings is used by a leader to show a sample, and the other pair is used by a trainee (infant). The color or pattern is for recognizing the correspondence between the string operated by the instructor and the string operated by the instructor, and the color or pattern only needs to distinguish the left and right strings. Accordingly, a case in which one string is plain and a color, a pattern, a specific mark, or the like is given only to the other string is also included.
And one set of the two sets of strings, that is, one set of strings used by the instructor, is attached with a flexible rigid strip for retaining the string at the tip, The pair of cords is preferably configured as having no shape retention (Claim 2).

The sheet is a substrate to which four strings for the instructor and the instructor are attached, and any sheet can be used as long as it can attach the string regardless of the material such as cloth, cardboard, and synthetic resin sheet. Moreover, the shape is not ask | required.
The string only needs to be an object of the work of “knotting”, and includes a flat ribbon-shaped object and a thick rope-shaped object.
And the string should just be fixed to the sheet | seat, and a pair of string may be fixed to the place isolated or fixed to the same place. The fixed position does not matter. The fixing method is not limited.
The rigid strip is, for example, a wire, and it is sufficient if the knotting place where the instructor of the instructor ties the string is rigid, and it is sufficient if the leading end side of the instructor string is rigid. It may be mounted over the entire length.
In addition to the above, by attaching marks indicating the crossing position and the bending position to each pair of cords, it is possible to instruct a well-balanced knotting method. In order to identify two strings, for example, if this mark represents a plurality of kinds of animals, it crosses at a specific animal (for example, a penguin) and crosses at another specific animal (for example, a cat). Anything can be used as long as it can be specified.

It is difficult for an infant to determine which is the right string and which is the left string when observing the two strings being tied by the instructor. However, according to the present invention, both the instructor's string and the instructor's string have the same color or pattern on the left side and on the right side, so the instructor depends on the color of the instructor's string etc. You can understand the positional relationship of the strings and learn how to tie them correctly.
According to the invention of claim 2, since the string of the instructor is formed, it is possible to maintain the state in the middle of tying the own string and instruct the instructor to observe how to tie it.
Therefore, the trainee (infant) can easily understand how to tie the string.

  Examples of the present invention will be described below.

The base end of the cord 2 is fixed to the left apex portion of the substantially square cloth 1 having the top in the plan view as the apex, and the base end of the cord 3 is fixed to the apex portion below the fabric 1, A pair of instructors is composed of two strings 2 and 3. The base end of the string 4 is fixed to the lower apex portion of the fabric 1, and the base end of the string 5 is fixed to the right apex portion of the fabric 1. Construct a string for the instructor. Each of the strings is detachably attached using a snap.
The strings 2 and 4 are located on the left side of the person who ties the string and are both red, and the strings 3 and 5 are located on the right side of the person who ties the string and are both blue. Each of the instructors' strings 2 and 3 is obtained by stitching ribbon-like cloths on the front and back sides, and a wire is mounted over the entire length thereof. With this wire, the strings 2 and 3 have shape retention.
The two cords 3 and 4 attached to the lower apex portion are attached to the cloth base 6 that is rotatably attached to the cloth 1 by a snap, and the left and right cords are rotated by rotating the base. The colors can be reversed.

When a leader (for example, a parent) teaches a trainee (child) how to tie a string using the teaching tool of the present invention configured as described above, first the parent and the child are arranged side by side, and the parent is for the leader. The cords 2 and 3 are used to tie the strings, and the child imitates them and ties the strings 4 and 5.
Since the strings 2 and 3 for the instructor and the strings 4 and 5 for the instructor have the same color on the left side and on the right side, the child chases the parent string with the same color as his own string, It is possible to connect correctly, and the leader is easy to point out the child's mistake.
Moreover, since the cords 2 and 3 for instructors have shape retention property, the middle state of the knotting work can be maintained at a point that is the main point of the knotting method. Therefore, it can be shown to the child as a sample in the middle, and the child can understand how to tie it.

FIG. 3 shows the instructor and the instructor facing each other.
Only the arrangement of the strings is different from that in Example 1, the strings 2 and 3 for the instructor are attached to the lower vertex of the fabric 1, and the strings 4 and 5 for the instructor are attached to the left and right apexes, In the two sets of cords, the red cords 2 and 4 are arranged on the left side of the person to be tied, and the blue cords 3 and 5 are arranged on the right side of the person to be tied.
By fixing each string to the fabric 1 in a detachable manner, the embodiment 1 and the embodiment can be used by appropriately changing the position of the string.

According to this embodiment, although the instructor (child) tends to grasp the left and right in the opposite direction, the child can distinguish the left and right by using the color of the string as a mark. You can tie them correctly by following the parent's string that has the same color as your string.
In addition, by changing the left and right, not only face-to-face, the leader may sit on the knee, for example, to reach out from the back of the child to guide, or remove the string from the fabric Good.

  On the surface of the fabric 1, a pocket made of a net 11 is provided, and a safety pin 12 is accommodated in this pocket. These are teaching tools to help children learn how to use safety pins. That is, it is possible to teach how to tie a string and how to use a safety pin based on one piece of cloth.

  Conventionally, safety pins that have been made difficult to remove in consideration of the safety of children have been proposed (for example, Japanese Utility Model No. 63-1852). It has not been. Therefore, we propose teaching tools that can teach children how to use safety pins without risk of injury.

The safety pin 12 is a protective part 13 whose tip is covered with a synthetic resin, and the locking part 14 is also made of a synthetic resin so that the child is not damaged. The protective part 13 is thick at the tip side and gradually narrows toward the base, making it difficult to insert into the net and easily remove it from the net.
The size of the eyes of the net 11 is such that the protective part 13 of the safety pin 12 passes with resistance. The normal use scene of the safety pin is often used to hold a name tag or the like on the clothes, and when passing the tip of the pin through the clothes, there is a resistance to break through the cloth. Therefore, in order to realize this resistance, the size of the net is such that the protective part of the safety pin passes with resistance as described above.
Reference numeral 15 in the figure denotes a fastener for opening and closing the pocket.

  Two through holes 16 and 17 are provided on the left side edge of the lower portion of the fabric 1, and through holes 16a and 17a are provided on the right side edge at positions corresponding to the through holes on the left side edge. In addition, through holes 18 and 18a are provided side by side at the bottom corner.

In order to use these teaching tools, the instructor (parent) first shows a sample and the child operates in the same way. At this time, since the tip of the pin is a protective part 13 covered with a synthetic resin, and the locking part 14 is also made of synthetic resin, even when the child removes the tip of the pin from the locking part 14, There is no risk of damaging your fingers when fitting. Then, when passing the eye of the net 11 through the protective part 13 at the tip of the pin, the child can learn the same feeling as when actually stopping on the fabric because it does not pass unless it is pushed in with some force.
Moreover, you may provide not only a net | network but the hole of the grade which the protection part of a safety pin passes with resistance in sheets, such as cloth.

  The main point of this teaching tool is that a safety pin having a protective part at the tip of the pin is combined with a net having a size that allows the protective part to pass through with resistance. By attaching the net 11 to the base cloth 1 as a pocket, there is an advantage that a safety pin to be used in combination can be stored. However, it is not always necessary to use a pocket. It is also possible to configure as a combination.

The through holes provided in the fabric 1 can be used in the following two ways.
The first is stringing practice. The four strings attached to the fabric can be passed through the hole as appropriate, and the practice of passing the string through the hole can be practiced, and as the next step, by passing one string continuously through the corresponding left and right through holes, It is also possible to practice forming the fabric 1 into a bag shape.
The second practice is to insert the safety pin through the hole. By setting the size of each through hole so that the protective portion 13 of the safety pin 12 can pass with a margin, it is possible to practice before the practice of passing the net. The next step is to pass the fabric 1 by passing safety pins through the corresponding holes on the left and right and bottom (for example, fastening the four holes of the holes 17, 17a, 18, 18a with one safety pin). You can also practice to form a bag. The size of the through hole may be such that the safety pin passes with a sense of resistance.

  The present invention is useful as a teaching tool for teaching a child, particularly an infant, how to tie a string, and has industrial applicability.
