All parents know that they need to develop their babies from an early age, and want their native child to be better, smarter, stronger than their peers. While mothers and fathers themselves are not always ready to come up with entertainment and holiday scenarios. That is why children's entertainment is considered the most faithful and organic (in kindergarten).
Fun activities in kindergarten
Entertainment for children in kindergarten is not only a way to amuse kids, give them a piece of joy, fun and laughter. Another equally important function of entertainment and holidays is the mental development and formation of certain skills in children. After all, children perceive this world through play and fun, and moral teachings and boring stories do not bring any benefit to the development of kids.
Children's entertainment in kindergarten is divided into the main types:
- everyday program;
- holiday scripts.
At the same time, both forms of work of the kindergarten teacher are an integral part of the life of the group and make a huge contribution to the development of children, provided they are properly organized.
Kindergarten Activities
Activities in kindergarten can be very diverse:
1) Everyday kindergarten entertainment.
2) Rest.
3) Themed holidays.
4) Musical and artistic activity.
Most often, as practice shows, the musical director, physical education instructor and educators are only busy preparing for the holidays. They prepare a script, hand out roles and learn them with children. In September, the group prepares for the festival of autumn or harvest. Immediately after it, all scenarios of entertainment in the kindergarten are reduced to preparing for the New Year's matinee, then to the Eighth of March and so on.
Of course, holidays, matinees and preparation for them are an important component of the children's team, but far from the only one. Therefore, the work of the educator should be diverse, and the scenarios of the holidays are thought out so that the children do not have long and painful preparations.
Types of rest
Rest in kindergarten can also be active and passive. Passive relaxation includes:
- general muscle relaxation (sleep, relaxed conversation);
- contemplation of paintings, nature, beautiful objects;
- easy conversations.
Rest can also be active:
- gymnastic exercises;
- work in the courtyard of the kindergarten;
- outdoor games.
The main essence of relaxation is that the child must independently choose the type of activity, realize their desires and needs in accordance with their own interests.
Scenarios of holidays and entertainment in kindergarten
Entertainment topics in kindergarten may include:
1) Household: harvest festival, New Year's Eve, graduation of children to school.
2) Public: March 8, Victory Day, Easter.
3) Seasonal: holiday of autumn, farewell to winter, day of birds, summer holiday.
One of the most common holidays in kindergarten is the "Autumn Festival". For example, “Autumn noisy ball invited guests to his place”, his preparation includes:
- selection of text material and musical accompaniment;
- scenario development;
- learning the lyrics and songs for the holiday;
- prepare children in advance: tell all about the signs of autumn and how animals prepare in the fall for winter;
- room decoration with air decorations, posters;
- preparation of costumes and other attributes for children.
Actors: host, fungus, bunny, fox, bear, titmouse, birds, as well as vegetables: garlic, tomato, carrots, cabbage, cucumber and others.
To the sound of music, children enter the hall and become a semicircle. The presenter begins her speech, then each vegetable tells verses about his vegetable. After that you can perform the song “Autumn has come”, “Sad Crane” and other compositions dedicated to the autumn theme.
Autumn holidays and fun in kindergarten
Autumn is a dreary and rainy season, but not for kindergarten children, because teachers always try to find the most fun and interesting entertainment scenarios for children (in kindergarten).
So, musical theatrical entertainment "Fun trip to the fall." The main characters of this entertainment: autumn, vegetables, squirrels, hares, bear, cat, birds. The role of autumn and the leader is played by adults, all the rest are children of older groups.
The kids in verse ask autumn, why did she come with frequent rains, with cold nights? Why did you take away a fun and hot summer in autumn? "Better use winter!" Autumn, in turn, answers that it will try to fulfill the request of the children and give them snowstorms, and she herself will go to those countries where she will be very happy.
Then all the children come to the music in the roles of trees, squirrels, hares, birds and vegetables. They say that they won’t understand what’s happening, because the trees didn’t have time to throw off the leaves, they didn’t change their hares, and they barely escaped from the wolf, because they can’t hide in gray fur coats on white snow. Squirrels reply that they did not shed and did not manage to stock up on mushrooms for the winter. And then the Bear enters the clearing, he roars, because he did not have time to find a lair to sleep, and not wander through the forest, scaring animals. But the birds did not have time to fly south to the warm lands and now they are completely freezing. And they tried so hard in the summer, kept up, but only people did not pick them. And all together - animals, birds, vegetables are asked to return the children to autumn, and the guys are looking for and bring her.
Here autumn returned again, but not by itself, but with gifts. She carries a basket of vegetables and fruits, and gives the children sweet sweets.
New Year's entertainment scenarios
New Year, as you know, the most favorite holiday not only for children, but also for their parents. Therefore, the organization of this holiday is so important for everyone, and preparation takes a lot of time. There are a large number of Christmas entertainment scenarios, for example:
- "Travel around the world of Santa Claus, the Snow Maiden and all-all-all." The heroes of this tale are Baba Yaga, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden. Their roles are performed by adults. Harlequin, Malvina, Cinderella and other heroes of children's fairy tales - children.
At first, children come under the New Year's composition. Children recite poems about a fun holiday called "New Year." The host invites all the children to dance around the Christmas tree and make the most cherished desires, approaching the green New Year's beauty. Then the children recite poems about the tree or sing a song together.
Snegurochka comes out and performs a song. Then Baba Yaga appears, who talks about the enchantment of Santa Claus. Children and adults, not believing her, all together call him. Finally, Santa Claus comes in and gives everyone presents. This is the most important thing for children, especially on such a magical New Year holiday.
Spring fun in kindergarten
Spring is the time when everything comes to life. Do not forget about the events. For example, you can arrange such kindergarten entertainment in kindergarten as “Bird Day”. In such an event, you need to use puzzles and sayings about different birds, imitating the voice of various sounds that winged friends make. The teacher makes riddles about the sparrow, raven, woodpecker, and at the same time he says: “chik-chirik, car-car, tuk-tuk”.
You can also offer children to play such an entertainment called "Birds". Its essence is that you need to draw a big circle - this is the sky where birds fly. Each child at the beginning of the game chooses one favorite bird for himself, and one of the children depicts a fox. Children-birds walk in a circle, and a fox between children. When she speaks a verse about one of the birds, for example, about a cuckoo, the one who chose to be it at the beginning of the game should quickly fly into a circle so that the fox does not have time to catch it. At the end of the game, birds that survived in a circle, and those who fell into the paws of a fox, pull a rope or stick, competing, whose team will win.
Most importantly, the scenarios of holidays and entertainment in kindergarten should be bright and varied.
