Educator. Easter is the biggest and Holy holiday christian church Nature rejoices, Everything around blooms and blooms
In Russia, Holy Pascha has always occupied a special place in the spiritual life of people, since it was associated with ideas about the eternal renewal of life, about the rebirth and purification of the human soul. Holidays, and especially such light ones as Easter, united people in a single feeling, mood and state of mind. Such holidays spiritually rallied disunited people They united families Family members, even if a short time, got together, united common cause: preparation for the holiday, joyful feeling, fun feast.
People were preparing for Easter for a very long time, and this preparation is called Great Lent(7 weeks). Throughout this week, they worked tirelessly in all houses: women and girls whitewashed stoves, washed and scrubbed tables, benches and floors, wiped dusty walls with wet rags, swept cobwebs, washed all household utensils and generally cleaned out all the dirt accumulated in the house - the peasants prepared firewood for the Easter fire, as well as bread and feed for all the cattle for the entire Bright Week, so that later on the holiday they would not have to bother and everything would be at hand. The height of all these works usually falls on Maundy Thursday, on which, according to the popular expression, “even a crow is washing its ravens in a puddle,” on this day, everyone must steamed in baths for beauty and health, washed small children and even pigs, so that “all were clean for a year. "
But even at this time, each person must seriously think about himself, about his actions - good and bad, about his deeds - good and not so, he must understand that he has done bad, and fix it. During the fast in Russia, they did not celebrate the merry ones, noisy holidays haven't played weddings.
Musical slides "Christ is Risen" (song)
On Easter day, people congratulate each other. In churches, houses, on the streets, greeting, they joyfully say Christ is risen! "-" Truly is risen! " This is called "christening" Everyone sets the festive tables where the main treats were cakes and colored eggs
Guys, do you know why eggs are painted?
it small miracle, it is a symbol of life. The custom of dyeing eggs dates back to antiquity. Previously, it was considered a red egg - a symbol of the sun, a new business, a new life,
Legend
On Easter, Mary Magdalene (a disciple of Jesus Christ) told the Roman emperor Tiberius that Christ had risen, but Tiberius did not believe, then Mary Magdalene gave him egg with the words "Christ is risen!", and the egg immediately turned bright red, symbolizing the blood that Christ shed.
Since then, in memory of this event, which symbolizes our faith in the Risen Lord, we paint eggs.
The eggs have always been painted by women. While painting eggs, they associated their HOPES with THIS, WISHES which were woven into the applied pattern. So from generation to generation, ornaments and drawings were formed and passed on.
To paint Easter eggs, our ancestors used vegetable dyes which were made in advance from oak and apple bark, alder cones, onion husks of beet broth, nettle, etc.)
Each color had its own meaning:
Red is a sign of happiness; yellow is a sign of the sun, green is a sign of life, blue is a sign of the sky, blue is the color of night and mystery; Brown color- the color of the earth.
Easter week traditions slides
Let's play with you the game "Rolling eggs from a slide" (children, parents play, sort out the prizes - candies and eggs)
As we said earlier, the ornament of Easter eggs was the most diverse: geometric, plant depicting the world of animals and birds.
In ancient times, such eggs were called Krashenki. And there were also other eggs that served as a talisman throughout the year. They were painted by hand and were certainly raw, such eggs were called Easter eggs. On Easter eggs, the ornament was carried out very clearly and accurately. Well, if the ornament was broken, then among the people such eggs were called Malevanks. Painted eggs were placed on sprouted wheat, which was sown in advance and decorated the Easter table.
Painted eggs, according to ancient beliefs, Easter eggs protect from evil, and therefore give them to friends, relatives or loved ones as a symbol of love and life.
So I propose to you to make the "Easter egg" applique and present it to your parents as a talisman.
(after executing productive activities children, show the slide "Congratulations to the cartoons")
At the end of the lesson - a treat with Easter and Easter eggs

These are holidays that people still remember, they try to observe some traditions. Let's remember some of them. On New Years - they put up a Christmas tree, on Christmas - they conduct fortune-telling.
To celebrate Easter, you need to prepare in advance. The church prepares believers for the most important holiday, the seven-week fast - this is the time of repentance and spiritual cleansing.
Easter is the expectation of spring. Delicate flowers- tulips, daffodils, hyacinths - decorate our house for Easter.
You can put birch and willow twigs into the water in advance. They will bloom in the warmth, and live green leaves will delight your family.
Easter is main holiday christian world. This is the victory of life over death! By great love to us, people, the Lord came down to earth in the form of a man, accepted suffering and death on the cross for us. The week before Easter is called passionate. Maundy Thursday reminds of the last sacrament. On Friday, Christ was crucified on the cross and his body was placed in a cave. And on the third day, at night, Jesus Christ came to life.
It is customary to paint eggs for Easter. different colors but among colorful eggs must be bright red. Why? History has preserved such a tradition for us. After the resurrection of Jesus Christ, his disciples and followers dispersed to different countries proclaiming everywhere good news that you no longer need to be afraid of death. Christ, the Savior of the world, defeated her. He resurrected Himself and will resurrect everyone who believes Him and will love people as much as He loves.
Christ has risen from the dead! - with such news, Mary Magdalene ran to the Roman emperor Tiberius.
It can't be, ”the emperor chuckled. White egg in your hands will never turn scarlet!
And at the same moment, a chicken egg - a modest offering to the emperor - turned bright red ...
On Easter, we repeat this miracle: we paint eggs in bright yellow color is the color of the sun, green is the color of spring and, of course, bright red is the color of God's blood shed for us.
On Easter, as in the most important holiday church year, a particularly solemn service is performed. Since ancient times, the Church has developed the tradition of celebrating the Easter service at night; or in some countries (for example, Serbia) in the early morning - at dawn.
The tradition to put at the altar during the night Easter service there is a large candle in all Christian countries. People take candles with blessed fire home to light the hearth. It brings happiness to the home.
At the Easter Liturgy, all believers try to take communion without fail. And after the service is over, the believers "christianize" - they greet each other with a kiss and the words "Christ is Risen!"
On Easter we joyfully say: "Christ is Risen!" and exchange red testicles. This custom is very old; Christ gave us life, and the egg is the sign of life.
Arriving home, and sometimes right in the temple, they arrange an Easter feast. During easter week in all churches, as a rule, anyone is allowed to ring the bells.
The celebration of Easter lasts forty days - exactly as long as Christ appeared to His disciples after the Resurrection. On the fortieth day, Jesus Christ ascended to God the Father. During the forty days of Easter, and especially on the first week - the most solemn one - they visit each other, give colored eggs and Easter cakes, and play Easter games. This day is famous not only for delicious treats. It is also rich in rituals. On this day, old people combed their hair with the wishes that they would have as many grandchildren as hair on their heads. Young people washed themselves with gold, silver, and a red testicle in the hope of getting rich. For the Great Holiday, people prepared and are now preparing various treats.
Educator: Tell the children, who knows what kind of treat is prepared for the festive table?
Children: children's answers
The main decoration of the table is, of course, Easter cakes and Easter.
Educator: What to give for Easter?
Impossible to imagine Easter greetings no red or painted egg.
TO Easter table as a rule, many relatives and friends gather. Everyone should try to cook easter gift: a beautiful testicle and a small cake.
If you prepare in advance baskets with sprouted herbs and place eggs and cake on a napkin among the greenery, the joy of your loved ones will reward your efforts and fill your heart with happiness.
If the person you want to congratulate on Easter is far away, you can send him an Easter card.
Educator: This is what we will do now, we will make a greeting card.
For work you will need: napkins, cardboard, templates, a brush, PVA glue.
To make a postcard we need:
- Outline chicken template on cardboard
- Roll small balls from cut napkins

- Glue it under and over the chicken
- Complete the postcard to the end.

In Russia, Easter was called Great day, Bright day.
This holiday symbolizes the victory of good over evil, life over death, the triumph of spring, sun, warmth over winter cold.
Easter is a holiday dedicated to the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. There was a belief that the sun plays on Easter. And many tried to watch for this moment. The children turned to the sun with a song:
The sun, the bucket,
Look out the window!
Sunny, roll

Young people climbed the rooftops to meet the sun. Easter big holiday, lasts a week and this whole week was filled with various games, entertainment, visiting. On Easter it was customary to congratulate each other on the Resurrection of Christ. Bright Resurrection of Christ is the most important Christian holiday. This day all Orthodox world marks the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. In Jerusalem, Jesus was crucified on the cross, but on the third day after death, He rose from the dead.
(Show a picture of the crucifixion of Christ.)
Easter has never been without a swing. Absolutely everyone swayed. Something of a village club was forming near the swing; girls with sunflowers, women with children, men and guys with accordions and talans. Crowded here from morning till night. Some just looked and admired the fun of others, others had fun themselves.
And now the children will read poems:

Prepared for the meeting of this holiday in advance. Eggs were cleaned, cleaned, washed and painted in every house. The custom of exchanging red eggs for Easter, saying: "Christ is Risen!" long-standing. It was believed that the egg is a sign of life, and it was painted red because Christ gave us eternal life with his blood. Giving was considered a sign that you forgive a person all insults, that he is pleasant to you, that you do not hold any grudge against him.
There were two types of eggs: dye and pysanka.
Krashenka is a dyed boiled egg.
A pysanka is an egg covered with multi-colored patterns. There are hundreds of patterns - symbols, magic signs, amulets.
Fish is a symbol of Christ.
Curls and spirals- signs of cosmic power.
Triangle with dotsis a symbol of a sown field, a sign of prosperity and wealth.
Plums and apples are the magic of love.
Oak, pine, ash leaves- these are symbols of the tree of life. The boy was given a Easter egg with oak leaves, as Oak Leaf- a symbol of harmony, beauty and strength.
Flowers on Easter eggs- these are the symbols of the born souls. A woman who wanted to have children painted many Easter eggs with flowers and presented them to children.
Green hearts- the heat of love (the girls gave the couples).
Colors also have their own symbolism: red is the color of joy, life; yellow is a sign of the sun, warmth; green symbolizes spring; blue is the color of the sky; brown and black - the color of the earth; blue is the color of the leg, the color of secret spirits.
Today we will try to apply patterns on the eggs. You can draw with gouache, varnish, felt-tip pens. We will paint with felt-tip pens.
The felt-tip pen does not like haste, inaccuracies, because the line cannot be erased. First, decide how you will paint the egg. Draw pictures or design a pattern. If you find it difficult to immediately draw with felt-tip pens, then first draw with a simple pencil.
In the meantime, you will apply the pattern, I will tell you about the beliefs that existed in Russia about the miraculous powers of Easter eggs.
They walked with the egg into the field and threw it up so that the bread would grow as tall.
Eggshells were scattered across the field for soil fertility. The eggs were rolled over the backs of pets so that they would not hurt, saying: "As the testicle is smooth and round, so is my horse, be smooth and light." Pysanka was used in the treatment of certain diseases. The dried egg yolk was used to treat burns and wet eczema. Splinter eggshell strung on woolen thread and worn for colds and fevers. Pysanka commemorated deceased relatives. Easter eggs were often given to each other for happiness, health, joy.
Now I invite you to play Easter games.
- The players sit down opposite each other and roll the Easter eggs, the Easter eggs collide: whose egg breaks, he gives it to the opponent.
- On command, the children simultaneously unwind their Easter eggs. Whose egg will spin longer is the winner.
- The game "Bowling in Russian". Prizes are placed along the perimeter of the table: whistles, gingerbread cookies, sweets, nesting dolls, etc. The task of the players is to knock out the thing that they like with their eggs. You have to skate the queue. Each player receives the prize that he knocked off the table with his egg.
By Easter, each family collected and colored 100-200 eggs in onion skins. They were handed out to those who came to swallow, to children, or they themselves broke the fast with their own family. And on Easter, they cooked Easter cottage cheese and baked delicious sweet buns-cakes. Let us and we try a piece of delicious Easter cake and treat the guests.
The heart will get used to troubles -
But when the demon gallops away
Descending to us on the wings
Easter is bright from heaven.
Russian Easter, old,
With variegation and a crowd,
Genuine, epic -
The one that celebrates with the family.

Course of the lesson:
The story of Easter is a journey through millennia. Leafing through its pages, you can discover something new for yourself every time, because the history of the origin of Easter is an interweaving of traditions, beliefs and customs.
Let's go on such a journey! Do you agree?
Easter is the feast of the Bright Resurrection of Christ Easter we joyfully meet And we sing: "Christ is risen! We all answer in unison: "He is truly risen!" Years pass in succession Under the azure skies. And the peoples everywhere are singing: "He is truly risen!" Joy and hugs are everywhere: “Brother, sister, Christ is risen! Hell is destroyed, there is no curse: He is truly risen! " (V. Kuzmenkov)
Jesus Christ was sent by God to earth for our salvation from sins (bad deeds)
He was kind, just, never condemned anyone and fought against evil.
The kings feared that Jesus Christ himself would become the ruler of the whole world. And they executed Him - they crucified Him on the cross.
Jesus Christ was executed on Friday. At this time, the earth shook and stones fell from rocks and mountains. It was the saddest and most mournful day for people. Today this day is called PASSION FRIDAY.
After the execution, Christ's disciples removed his body from the cross and put it in a cave and closed the entrance to it with a huge stone.
On Sunday, the women came to the cave and saw that the entrance to it was open. The women were very surprised that such a huge and heavy stone pushed back.
Angel reported good news about the miraculous resurrection of Christ. Christ is risen - it means became immortal.
One of the women, Mary Magdalene, decided to inform the Roman emperor about the resurrection of Christ. She presented the emperor with an egg that symbolized a miracle. But the emperor said to Mary: "It is more likely that this egg will turn red than I will believe that Jesus is risen."
The egg immediately turned red ... Since then, there has been a tradition to paint eggs for Easter.
The bright holiday of the Resurrection of Christ has its own traditions, customs, symbols and ancient rituals associated with them.
Easter fire, spring water of a stream, wreath, eggs, cakes - all these are symbols of the Great Day and have roots in the distant past.
Fire protected our ancestors from predatory animals and evil spirits, people made fires to drive away winter and meet spring faster. The Easter fire embodied the power of the hearth.
Easter wreath is the personification of eternal life.
The egg symbolized a small miracle of birth. There are many customs with the egg. Our ancestors wrote prayers on them, magic spells and signs. The deep meaning is embedded in simple patterns... For example, the circle symbolizes the bright sun, and the wavy lines symbolize the oceans and seas.
On the holiday, egg fights are popular for Easter meal, or "clinking" eggs, as the people say. It's simple and fun game: someone is holding an egg with its nose up, and the “opponent” beats it with the nose of another egg. Those who have not cracked the shell won and continues to “clink glasses” with another person.
The holiday lasted throughout the entire Bright week, the table remained set, invited to the table, treated, especially those who could not or did not have such an opportunity.
Easter is the main holiday christian calendar... It is not for nothing that it is called "holidays, a holiday and a celebration of celebrations."

Educator : Guys, what do you think about a holiday we are going to talk about today? What bright holiday will we celebrate soon?
(Answers of children)
Easter is the most important holiday of the church year, the day of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, when people are freed from everything bad. This is a holiday of hope for the future, joy, the victory of Good over Evil. God loved people so much that he came into the world to save them. He took over everything bad deeds(sins) people. But evil people did not want Christ to save people. They grabbed Him and killed Him. But Christ conquered death, he rose from the dead. Therefore, all people rejoice on this day and congratulate each other with the words: “Christ is Risen! "And they are answered" Truly Risen! ". Many unbelievers also celebrate Easter, because it is the beginning of spring and the awakening of nature.
It was on this day that people could enter the church belfry and touch the magic bells, not only for adults, but also for children - this happens once a year. You can do this too. But you can go up to the belfry when you know exactly what you want to ask for. This is a request that can help someone. Not trivial, but very important: about recovery, salvation and the like. Ask for the most cherished, but silently, in complete silence. On Easter, early in the morning, people went out into the street to see how the "sun plays" and from it they predicted what the harvest would be.
"On Easter, the sky is clear and the sun" plays "- for a good harvest."
"Good rye to Holy Rain."
"To the Holy Thunder - to the harvest."
If the weather is clear on the second day of Easter, the summer will be rainy; if it is cloudy, the summer will be dry.
The whole week preceding Easter is called Passionate. Highlight the last days Holy week- Maundy Thursday (day of cleansing from sins), Good Friday(mention of the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ), Great Saturday (day of sorrow), and Bright Resurrection Christ is a holiday of life and victory over death. Starting on Maundy Thursday, we begin to prepare for Easter - first to clean the house, and then paint eggs and bake cakes.

And why exactly the red egg is the symbol of Easter?
(Answers of children)
Red is the color of joy. And it is also the color of the blood with which Christ sanctified life.
Since then, people began to greet each other with a red egg, as a sign of eternal life. Hear how eggs were painted in the old days. Initially, eggs were painted only red, later they began to be painted in all sorts of colors, landscapes were painted on them, even their thoughts were written down. Also in the old days, eggs were colored using bright shreds and threads that have faded. The egg was moistened with water, and covered with shreds and threads, wrapped in a white cloth and tightly wrapped with thread, then boiled. The whole family was painting eggs on Thursday before the holiday. It was believed that eggs boiled hard in Maundy Thursday, protect from diseases if they are on Easter, and bury the shells from eggs in the ground in the pasture where cattle were grazed, this reliably protected domestic animals from the evil eye and all kinds of misfortunes.

Educator: - Listen, guys, the legend about Mary Magdalene and the first red Easter egg.
“After the Resurrection of the Savior, His disciples went all over the world to tell people about Christ, to teach people the faith.
Among the disciples of the Lord there were also women, one of them - Mary Magdalene - went to preach the word of God to the city of Rome and entered the palace to the emperor. Once upon a time, Mary was noble and wealthy, so she was known in the palace and allowed to pass. In those days, when people came to the emperor, they had to bring an expensive gift. Maria had nothing with her except a simple chicken egg. Having greeted the emperor, Maria extended her modest gift to him, saying:
I was once rich.
And, she brought valuable gifts.
Today I am rich only in faith.
The Savior and Lord Christ.
What can I give today?
Here is a gift - a testicle, a symbol of life.
Christ is risen!
The Emperor replied to Mary:
How can anyone be resurrected?
This is incredible, impossible.
Only then would I be able to believe on Sunday
When would the testicle turn red.
Suddenly everyone froze in amazement, and one of the emperor's servants exclaimed:
O emperor, look quickly!
The testicle turns pink, no - it gets dark.
About a miracle! It turned bright red!
Truly Jesus Christ is risen! "
And so, guys, a bird's egg can actually be called a symbol of life, because a living chick can hatch from this outwardly lifeless egg, which looks more like a pebble. Of course, for this, the egg does not need to be taken from the mother-hen, who must incubate it, warming it with its warmth.
But a chicken egg is not stored for a long time, and so I would like to preserve the joy of the holiday. How do you think this can be done?
