When sending a child to kindergarten, few parents think about the benefits that they can derive from being there. It seems to mom that she is just trying not to leave the baby unattended and to ensure that he communicates with peers. But everything is much more serious.
Each preschool educational institution carries out work according to the approved program of training, education and development of preschool children. Everything is taken into account in it: both the mental development of the child and the physical. There are special volumes of work related to the care of children's health in kindergarten. They include the development of a diet of proper and wholesome nutrition, the implementation of a number of physical exercises aimed at the development of all muscle groups and internal systems of the body. And special attention in this direction is given to children staying in the fresh air. Walking in kindergarten is a systematic and carefully planned process. It includes:
- observation of animate and inanimate nature ;
- physical exercise in the fresh air;
- games of high, low and medium mobility;
- training in new types of movements (throwing, jumping in length and height, running at speed, etc.);
- independent activity of children.
Not a single walk in a kindergarten takes place without the education and development of a child. Just imagine that your kid, going out into the street, with the help of an experienced adult learns to “hear” and “see” nature! He hears the sparrow chirping, sees how the foliage changes color every day in the fall, as a berry ripens in a small improvised bed; understands that the wind is weak, strong and gusty, learns that the snow consists of carved snowflakes, each of which exists in a single copy. Every day, the kid learns something new and remembers new words-descriptions, enriching his vocabulary right here, on the street. Agree that this is one of the most wonderful ways to learn!
All of us parents perfectly remember the words of the famous song that “in every little child ...” there is a huge clot of irrepressible energy. And where could he throw it out, if not during a walk in kindergarten! At the sites of the preschool institution, competent specialists have provided all the means for this: gymnastic horizontal bars, stairs, slides, sandpits, paths from the "bumps" (rooted hemp), swings, etc. Moreover, all these attributes do not exist by themselves, but purposefully used by educators to organize and conduct sports competitions, physical training and outdoor games.
In addition, not a single walk in kindergarten takes place without portable material. These are buckets, molds, balls, ropes, ropes, hoops, dolls, crayons, cars. Naturally, all this wealth is not presented in a single copy, but in several pieces, allowing children to unite according to their interests. And we, parents, can significantly diversify and refresh all this equipment, giving a group of our child a ball lying in the corner for a long time or a toy (doll, car) forgotten by his son (daughter).
But this is far from all that mothers and fathers can do to ensure that a child’s walk in kindergarten evokes only positive emotions. So, for example, you need to be careful about what we dress him in, collecting in kindergarten. Too warm clothes interfere with movement and lead to overheating of the baby's body. It must be remembered that a heated child comes with a walk to a cool, ventilated locker room, where it can catch a cold. Light clothes also may not be an acceptable option. Best of all, if you will be provided with an additional set of clothes, allowing, if necessary, to “warm” the baby or replace too warm clothes with lighter ones. Your group teacher will always help in choosing the right option - he knows exactly what and how is happening with your son or daughter on and after a walk. Therefore, you should carefully listen to his advice.
I really want to remind all parents of the long-known truth: during a walk, children have the opportunity to improve their health, breathe fresh air, get the physical activity necessary for a growing body, and, in the end, just frolic and play. But adults quite often deprive their children of this by saying some wrong phrase. Dear parents, always remember one main rule: your children completely imitate you and copy you. Know that if you show a negative attitude to walking, to the need for a child to stay outdoors, then he will not love this bright and fun pastime. Therefore, before you say anything negative about walking in kindergarten, think about why you can deprive your child of one careless thought spoken out loud!
