But finding New Year's children's books, the plot of which would not be connected with Santa Claus or Santa Claus, is not easy. Many do not imagine the New Year without Santa Claus, however, everything more parents around the world, and even more so parents who choose the path of Montessori, tells children the truth that in fact this character does not exist and mom and dad put gifts under the tree. Santa Claus is such a tradition. And you can follow it, or you can agree that the expectation of the New Year and its celebration is a wonderful time that we spend with our family and give each other love and warmth.

We hope that our selection will help create a magical atmosphere of this special time, which adults can plunge into with their children, without focusing on Santa Claus and fairy-tale characters.

New Year's books for kids from birth to three years

At this age, we need to give the child the most accurate reflection of reality. The main questions that interest the baby are: “What is around me and what is it for?” That's why Special attention pay attention to the illustrations: they must be believable - let's leave Santa flying through the sky on reindeer for later. The texts are small and clear, giving an idea of ​​winter, the holiday and its attributes.

thick pages, bright photos, short texts- exactly what is needed one year old baby. View pictures and study objects together:

• "The world around me. New Year. Photobook" (Tatiana Koval)
• "The world around me. Multicolored New Year. Photobook" (Tatiana Koval)

Older children, 2-3 years old (and after three too), love to look at Wimmelbuch books and books with a lot of details that need to be found, shown and named, and at an older age, write stories about characters.

• "Once Upon a Winter" (Elena Zapesochnaya)
• picture book "Once Upon a Time in the City" (ROSMEN publishing house)
• "Winter Adventures. Stories from pictures with stickers” (Elena Zapesochnaya). To some extent, this is a version of the well-known "Winter Book" by Rotraut Berner adapted to Russian realities. It contains stickers of Santa Claus with the Snow Maiden, which the parent can remove.
• "Winter. Forward-looking finders” (Bianca Minte-Koenig, Hans-Günther Dering). We draw the attention of parents: since this is a translation, on one of the pages there is a mention of a mistletoe potion. This is typical of German culture and unusual for us. You can tell your child about it.

Poems to create a special winter mood:

• "Snow Bunny" (Olga Vysotskaya)
• "Winter Fun" (Evgeny Migunov)
• “It was in January” (Agniya Barto)
• "Soon, soon the New Year!" (NosyCrow)

New Year's books for children from 3 to 6 years old

At this age, children are already more interested in the plot. They are interested in answers to the questions "why" and "where". They still enjoy exploring the world around them. And if parents support them in this, children will discover a lot of new things for themselves.

Therefore, I wanted to start the list with books that reveal the secrets of familiar things. For example, how does a snowflake form and how is it that snowflakes always have six faces? Where does snow come from and why does it crunch underfoot? Why is ice slippery?

• "Snow. winter miracle» (Mark Cassino, Jln Nelson)
• "A Book about Snowflakes" (Olga Dvornyakova) Will interest both 5-6-year-old children and those who are older. Everyone will take something from her.

Winter stories can be truly mesmerizing, whether it's about the life of animals or two little brothers Chuk and Gek.

• "Who winters like" (Yulia Smirnova)
• "Chuk and Gek" (Arkady Gaidar)

Around the age of 5, the child begins to clearly distinguish between reality and fiction. During this period, you can start reading fairy tales. In the days of December will help create Christmas mood fairy tales:

• Moroz Ivanovich (Vladimir Odoevsky)
• "The Tale of the Little Christmas Tree" (Marina Aromshtam)
• "Snow globe" (Olga Fadeeva)
• "Christmas tree, cat and New Year" (artist Maria Pavlova)
• "One Winter Night" (Nick Butterworth)

• "Winter poems and fairy tales" (artists Lidia Gladneva, M. Afanasyeva, V. Pertsev)
• "Winter poems" (artist V. Belousov)
• "Frost and sun. Poems of Russian poets about winter" (artist Vladimir Kanivets)
• Winter Sorceress (artist Elena Drobotova)
• “Very fun in winter. Snow stories for kids "(Mikhail Yasnov)

Closer to 5-7 years old, children begin to be interested in the origin of the New Year, the traditions of celebrating in different countries. This is a good opportunity to talk about what "Santas" in different cultures have their own distinctive features.

• “How children around the world celebrate New Year and Christmas” (Pavla Khanachkova)
• Santa Claus and his brothers. Winter Wizards of Russia (Olga Kolpakova)

You can learn about the history and traditions of the holiday and in an unusual way- through the detective story “New Year. A terribly complicated case” (Yakov Akim, Viktor Dragunsky, Anton Zolotov).

And of course, December is a wonderful time to create that magical holiday atmosphere with your children that will be remembered for a lifetime.

• "Simple Snowflakes"
• “Christmas tree flags. A set of flags for the Christmas tree "(artist Maria Pavlova)
• "Christmas decorations" (Tatiana Kozhevnikova).

Creative tasks, indoor and outdoor games, useful ideas in preparation for the New Year for 5-6 years and older:

• “Entertainers. Winter. Fascinating activities for children and parents” (Nina Surova, Philip Surov)
• "Great time. Winter "(Ksenia Dryzlova)

New Year's books for children from 6 to 12 years old

At this age, children ask questions: “What is the reason?”, “What will happen if? ..”, “What would I do?”. Young researchers are increasingly interested in the world of relationships between people. Any story will become an occasion for discussion of good and evil, justice and mercy, love and friendship. Along with this, children continue to enthusiastically study how the world works.

As noted winter holiday our ancestors? Which traditions have survived to this day, and which ones are being revived or have appeared only now? Why do we celebrate both Christmas and New Year? Answers to these questions:

• "Christmas tree. One hundred years ago"
• "Christmas tree. The latest edition for a gift in verse and prose "
• "Christmas tree. Ancient fun "(A. Smirnov)
• "Story Christmas tree"(Alexander Tkachenko)

The world of people and relationships is much more complex than the world of nature and technology. How to find your place in it, how to distinguish good from bad, how to understand your experiences, what friendship, love and justice are - all this can become a topic for discussion while reading. New Year's stories and fairy tales:

• Bengal Lights (Nikolai Nosov)
• "How to arrange a holiday" (Anna Remez)
• "Christmas in northern ice"(Marina Aleshina)
• "Visiting polar bear"(Oleg Bundur)
• "The key to the Christmas tree chest" (Ekaterina Medvedeva)

• "Christmas Girl Doll" (Yulia Nasvetova, Lidia Avilova)
• "Journey of the smallest snowflake" (Elena Pervushina)
• "Wonderful Doctor" (Alexander Kuprin)
• The Little Match Girl (Hans Christian Andersen)
• "The Snow Queen. The Nutcracker and the Mouse King (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann, Hans Christian Andersen)
• “Santa Claus is calling us, or the Story of Droplet, her friends and how important it is to find your talent” (Irina Danilova)

For children who want to decorate the house for the holiday with their own hands, suggest:

• “A miracle with your own hands. Christmas toys» for 7-9 years (artist McLelland Kate)
• “A miracle with your own hands. Magic Birds for 7-9 years old (artist Ingram Zoe)
• Paper snowflakes "Winter". Cutting set "for 10–12 years old (A. Zaitseva)

Celebrating the New Year at home with your family can be made interesting and unforgettable if everyone takes part in the preparation of games, riddles and tricks with a set of 50 brochures "New Year with the Family" (Natalya Krupenskaya). It will be interesting for children from 6-9 years old.

We hope the review of children's New Year's books will be useful. Share in the comments your favorite books that you are especially happy to read with your children on New Year's Eve.

Illustrations: Montessori.Children

Everyone believes in the magic of New Year's Eve - both adults and children. Moms and dads make wishes to the chiming clock. Children - everyone, from young to old - write letters to Santa Claus. And then they are looking forward to when the kind old man and his granddaughter will drop by and see them at the light. With congratulations and, of course, with a full bag of gifts.

New Year for children: waiting for a miracle

hold the snowflake

Make “snowflakes” from small balls of cotton wool and distribute them one at a time to each participant in the game. On command, all players throw their "snowflakes" up and start blowing on them, trying to keep them in the air without the help of hands. The winner is the participant whose snowflake soared in the air the longest.

The main thing is not to laugh

Participants write one word at a time on pieces of paper. New Year theme(snowflake, icicle, Christmas tree, Snow Maiden, Santa Claus, snowman, garland, etc.). Leaves need to be folded into a box and mixed. Then each player pulls out one leaf and reads to himself what is written there. The facilitator asks the participants pre-prepared questions. To which the players must always answer with one word. The one that is written on their leaflet. Eg:

What is your name?

Snowman.

What did you eat for lunch today?

Snowman…

The winner is the one who answers all the questions of the presenter and, at the same time, does not laugh.

And under the ice the river sleeps.
All around snow, all around white,

He is talking about something to the sky.
And in the snow a trace is noticeable -
That wolf was looking for a meal.

He buried himself under a bush.
Don't be afraid, bunny, it's always snowing
Will save you from the wolf.

Frosty morning crow
Everything argues in the sky about its own.
And these disputes can not be counted -
Everything must be done during the winter.

New Year for the little ones: new year games for children early age, puppet show, home New Year's party for kids from 1 year to 3 years.

New Year for the little ones

In this article, I shared with you ideas, games and useful tips for home New Year's Eve for the smallest children:

- children under one year old,

- Children from 1 to 3 years of age.

Section one. New Year for the little ones: the first year of life

If your baby is about a year old, then the first Christmas tree in his life is waiting for him.

Does a child need a tree?

Undoubtedly needed. This and new experience, And vivid impressions, And joyful mood mothers (and children "read" mother's emotions on the fly). The only question is how to introduce the baby to the Christmas tree and ensure his safety.

First. A Christmas tree in a family in which there is a baby of the first year of life should not be placed on the floor, but on the table, high - so that the crumb crawling or taking its first steps cannot touch it, pull it towards itself, reach for the branch and, clinging to it, pull the tree down.

Therefore, the baby will consider the toys on the Christmas tree and the Christmas tree itself, sitting in his mother's arms.

Second. The baby must be introduced to the Christmas tree. What is the best way to do this?

How to decorate a Christmas tree for a child of the first year of life and introduce the baby to it?

Each game or conversation with the baby about the Christmas tree takes no more than 3-5 minutes, while the baby's interest remains.

First step. Show your child an undecorated Christmas tree - just the way it is. (If you can see a natural Christmas tree on a walk, then consider it with your baby). When looking, talk to the baby, using those babble syllables and small words that the baby can already repeat after you: “Ah! Smells! Ahah! Let's smell the tree! (we hold a twig in our hand and let the child sniff it, bringing our hand closer to him). Oh, how it smells! ”,“ Oh, prickly needles, oh, oh (prick your finger and lightly the child’s finger - oh, prickly - we say jokingly). Hey what beautiful tree- ouch!

Read the poem about the Christmas tree to your child:

“Daddy chose a Christmas tree
the most fluffy
the most fluffy
The most fragrant.
The tree smells like this -
Mom will immediately gasp! Oh! Which beautiful Christmas tree. Oh! (A. Usachev).

Second step. Play with a Christmas tree that has not yet been decorated and toys familiar to the child, for example, such toys as a bird and a bunny will come in handy. We will introduce the baby to the names of these toys, their actions, we will encourage them to repeat simple babble words.

Show how a toy bunny runs to the Christmas tree: top-top-top-top, how he jumps - jump - jump - jump-jump! Wow! Bunny fell. Get up! Jump, jump, the bunny jumps again. A hare galloped under our Christmas tree, sits and moves his ears:

"A white bunny is sitting
And wiggles his ears.
That's how, that's how
And wiggles his ears."

Give the bunny in the hands of the baby, let him stroke the toy, feed the bunny, show how the bunny jumps, where the bunny has ears. "Where is the bunny?" (hide the toy) - “No bunny!” (surprised). With a glance we are looking for a bunny with a child and we find: “Here is a bunny (we take out a toy)”.

Put the bunny in the box so that the baby does not see this toy and is not distracted by it. And show me a toy bird.

Plant a bird on a spruce branch:

"A bird has flown
The bird is small.
Sit down, don't fly away!
Flew away. Ai!

"Where is the bird? (Throw an opaque bright handkerchief over the bird). Here is a bird! (open handkerchief).

On another day, other toy animals can "run" to the Christmas tree.

Third step. Introduce the child to Christmas decorations and their names. (Even if you decorated the Christmas tree without the presence of the baby, you can do it now).

Let the baby touch Christmas toys that are safe for him: textile balls, wooden Toys. Name what kind of toy it is, what it is called (“This is a yoke-ho-go-horse. The horse jumps and shouts: yoke-ygo-ygo-yoke!”). Show how the horse jumps, let the baby play with this toy.

Useful advice: Now they produce very beautiful and child-safe wooden Christmas toys that you can buy at New Year's fairs from craftsmen. This is Santa Claus, Christmas tree, cracker, candy, bear, matryoshka, grandmother, grandfather, bright ball, icicle and many others. And toys made of fabric and felt are easy to make yourself or use ready-made ones by sewing a loop on them for hanging on a Christmas tree. Use them for little kids.

First introduce 2-3 child-safe Christmas toys and their names. Where is the bear? Here is a bear. What a beautiful. The bear walks slowly: toooop-toooop-toooop-toooop. And who is this? Bunny. When the baby remembers them, then introduce him to other toys.

Teach your baby to find a toy, first naming its "adult" name, and then the lightweight children's one: Where is our bear? Where is the bunny? Where is the lala doll? Where is the dog aw-aw? Where is the yoke horse? Where is the b.b. machine?

When you decorate a Christmas tree, then ask the child to show you a toy: “Where do we have a tick-tock clock? Here is the tick-tock clock. Let's hang them on the tree. Like this! Ah, what a beautiful watch!”

When decorating the Christmas tree, read the rhyme to the baby:

“Mom decorates the Christmas tree,
Anya (child's name) helps her mother,
She gives toys
Stars, balloons, crackers.
We will invite guests
Let's dance and sing together."

Turn on fun dance music and let the baby dance to it with you.

Fourth step.

If your baby knows the names of toys on the Christmas tree well and easily finds toys on it, you can change their places on the Christmas tree - outweigh them. Will the baby find the clock in a new place on the Christmas tree?

Also add new toys to the Christmas tree. Particularly good bells or bells. Let the baby ring the bell and hang it on the Christmas tree. If the kid wants to ring a bell already attached to a Christmas tree branch, do not refuse him this. Bring the bell right on the branch to the baby’s hand and gently ring it together with the “hand of a child in the hand of an adult” technique.

Helpful Hint: You can buy bells at a hobby store, and you can buy beautiful, child-friendly little bells at fishing stores. Tie to a bell and a bell beautiful bows and sew a loop to hang them on the Christmas tree.

Introduce your child to the lights of the garland on the Christmas tree. This spectacle always fascinates the child. Lights! So beautiful! Give your baby a few minutes just to look at this amazing sight for him: the lights are on!

"Christmas tree, Christmas tree, Christmas tree -
Green needle!
Light up different fires -
Green and red!

What beautiful lights! They're on fire! There are no lights. Where are the lights? (the lights went out on the flashing garland) Here are the lights!

How to decorate an apartment for the new year, if there is a baby in the house who is not yet a year old?

Decorate your apartment for the arrival of guests with decorations that your baby can play with. This is especially true for children 8-12 months old.

Playing with colorful flags

How to make a garland with flags for a child of the first year of life. Cut from bright colored cardboard different colors rhombuses, fold them in half so that you get triangles - flags. Put your “triangular flag” on the rope and glue it at the bottom so that the flag stays on the rope, does not open, and at the same time it can be moved along the rope. Make such a multi-colored garland. The kid will be able to examine the flags and move them with a pen along the rope to the right - to the left when you take it on the handles and bring it to your homemade garland.

You can remove two flags from the garland, give one to the child, and take one to the mother. And dance a dance with a flag to the song: the baby “dances” in the arms of his mother: he waves the flag, the mother is spinning with the baby in her arms.

We will take the flag in our hands
And we'll go in circles.
Ay-yes, ay-yes
And we'll go in circles.
Show your flag to friends
Let's lift up and wave
(show how to do it, take the baby's hand from your hand and wave the flag, then release your hand, the baby waves by himself).
Ay-yes, ay-yes
Let's lift up and wave.
Look at your flag
Hang out with him buddy.
Ay-yes, ay-yes!
Spin around with him, my friend (mom spins slowly, the baby is in her arms)

Repeat this dance different days- the baby will begin to recognize its melody and will imitate your movements with pleasure.

We play with bells or New Year's bells

The child will also be interested in decorations in the form of metal bells with bows, suspended on strings like garlands or simply in groups. different places rooms. The kid will be happy to pull the rope and ring the bell.

Take the bell in your hands and sing a song about it:

"Ding-dong - ding-dong!
Ringing bell!
Ding-dong - ding-dong!
The bell is thin!
Ding-dong - ding-dong!
Plays fun.
Ding-dong - ding-dong!
Masha (child's name) amuses!

We play with rattles

Rattles can also be included in Christmas garland and hang them in groups for bright ribbons. You can make a whole bunch of rattles for a child, fastening them with a festive bright satin ribbon. While playing with a rattle, you can sing to your baby a version of the dance with rattles adapted for the smallest:

Oh what fun today
kids have fun
Anya (child's name) was given rattles
Rattles are good!
Chorus:
Oh yes, call
ringing toy
Oh yes, call
Our rattle
Where, where, rattle?
Hid their kids
Show the rattles
Rattles are good.
Chorus:
Oh yes, call
ringing toy
Oh yes, call
Our rattle.

Take the rattles and "hide" them by covering them with a scarf so that one part of them is visible. Where are the rattles? The child needs to pull off the handkerchief and find the rattles, after which he himself plays with them.

Another garland for the little ones. You can tie rattles and bells into one big garland. Make a box with two side holes about 15 x 15 cm in size. Pass a ribbon with toys through the holes and tie it into a single ring. Get a kind of "carousel" in the box. The kid will pull the ribbon and get the next toy out of the box.

Playing with painted wooden spoons

Spoons can also decorate a room for the new year. Show your baby first how you can knock with a spoon on the floor, on the table. Later, teach him to knock spoons against each other.

Tuki-tuki, spoons!
Ringing hands!
Knock knock, knock knock!
Sounding spoons hear the knock!

We play with bunnies

You can sew small felt white finger caps for your child. Sew two caps to the base long ears and draw a muzzle of a bunny with a marker. It turned out "finger puppets - bunnies."

Show your baby a mini-performance with bunnies:

Fingers, fingers
little bunnies,
Bunnies danced (we move our fingers),
Bunnies played (we continue to move our fingers).
And… (pause) Run away!

After the show, put the caps on the baby's fingers - let him move his fingers and play bunnies.

How can a baby participate in a home New Year's holiday?

Useful advice 1. If you are going to visit a New Year's holiday with your baby of the first year of life, then find out in advance whether you will have the opportunity to retire from time to time with your child in a separate quiet room?

The fact is that the baby, and even after the road, will get tired of the constant presence in a noisy new group of people for him. Therefore, after 20-30 minutes of the baby's stay in the common room with guests, it is better to leave with the child in a separate room. In addition, in a separate room there will be an opportunity for the child to sleep if he gets tired.

If there are no such conditions, then it is better not to risk going to visit New Year with such a small child. Because the baby can be capricious, and you will not enjoy the holiday. And he too.

Don't go directly to new year's eve, it is better to go with a child for a daytime holiday to friends with children or relatives.

Helpful Tip 2. Put on yourself and the child a “day off festive clothes» She sets the mood! And your mood of the holiday is very important for the baby too! It also gives you strength!

Helpful Tip 3. Naturally, strangers will get acquainted with the baby at the holiday. There is no need to be afraid of this, but there is no need to transfer the child from hand to hand strangers he might be scared. But new contacts will be useful for a child who is about to be a year old. That's why let new people play with the baby when he sits in his mother's arms - they will tell him a joke, praise him, show him “patties” or dance actions. The baby is safe, he is smiling, everything is fine!

Helpful Tip 4. Ask the hosts and guests that at the time when the baby is present in the common room in it there were no sharp loud sounds(clapping crackers, for example), which can scare him very much so that the music does not sound loud. A baby of the first year of life cannot endure great emotional overloads; in case of overload, he begins to act up, cry and in every possible way express this unpleasant state of his voice. If other guests need to clap crackers, then leave the common room for this time to your quiet place outside of it. And then come back.

Helpful Tip 5. With a baby on a holiday, you will need to practice, communicate, play. He will not be able to just passively sit or lie down during the holiday. Think about what toys you will take with you so that the baby can play with them at a party. Teach your guests the baby's favorite nursery rhymes(magpie - crow, patties, ay-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta and others). Let the guests play with the baby - they will amuse him with nursery rhymes.

Helpful Tip 6. If you host guests at your home, then there will most likely not be any problems with a separate lounge. But another question will arise - if you need to retire with your child for a while to relax in a separate room, who will be able to play the role of host or hostess with guests at this time? It's good to have a friend or family member who can take over this role so you don't have to leave your baby alone in another room in an emergency.

Section 2. New Year for the smallest: children of the second and third years of life

For children from one and a half years and older, it is already possible to arrange a small children's home holiday. Invite 3 to 4 more children of the same age or a little older. It is important that the children's party is either at your home or near your home, because. during the journey, the baby will get tired and will no longer be able to actively participate in it.

Recommendation 1. Holiday duration. So that the children do not get tired, the active part of the holiday for such little children should be no more than 30 minutes, and the entire time the guests stay should be about an hour. This additional 30 minutes includes dressing up the children, and juice with treats after the holiday, but does not include the preparation of the premises for the arrival of the children - the room for the holiday is prepared in advance, even before the arrival of the children .

Recommendation 2 Holiday participants. Invite children and adults already familiar to the child to the holiday. If there is someone new for the child, then it is better to introduce the baby to these people before the holiday - let them come to visit you even before the holiday on a separate day. The fact is that young children always support each other in everything, especially in crying! Therefore, if one baby is frightened of someone unfamiliar and cries, then a friendly roar will be provided. To avoid such moments, you need to take care in advance that all guests know each other well.

Recommendation 3 One important nuance. The holiday will bring joy to children of this age and adults only in one case - if the children are not spectators of a performance carefully prepared by an adult, but its active participants! They will answer questions, call characters, play, dance. Moreover, for an early age it is very important that all children do the same action at the same time: for example, everyone throws cotton snowballs at a fox, driving it away. Or they all portrayed a bunny sitting under a Christmas tree - together and at the same time.

Adults also should not be passive spectators: if we dance, then both children and adults dance in it. Also, adults participate in games, showing a pattern of actions to their kids.

A) either give everyone absolutely the same so that this does not happen: two kids grabbed one toy and do not give it to each other (children at this age still do not know how to give in and restrain themselves),

B) or have a large stock. And if one of the kids suddenly grabbed a bell with a yellow ribbon, and the second one immediately grabbed it, then give the second another one of the same bell so that everyone is happy and satisfied :).

Be sure to give children beautiful props for dancing - snowflakes or ribbons or lanterns or rattles the same for everyone, as bright holiday props helps the baby to feel the atmosphere of the holiday and is very attractive and interesting for the little ones.

If you go to visit a family New Year's holiday with a child of 1-2 years old, and it is customary in the host family to bring individual gifts for the New Year, then in no case do you ask a child of 1-2 years old to give a gift to other children. There will be tears and spoiled mood. Just wrap the gift and give it yourself - and again, not in the hands of the child, but in the hands of his mother!

Recommendation 6 About Santa Claus. It is advisable not to invite Santa Claus to the home Christmas tree for children under 2 years old, the kids may be scared of him. Santa Claus for many of them is an unknown uncle in strange clothes, and by no means fairy tale hero with gifts. Let Santa Claus be painted on their gifts, which they will find under the tree. And they will see the “living Santa Claus” a little later, when they grow up.

What can you do with children 1-2 years old at home New Year's holiday:

- dance (both adults and children dance to any cheerful music with the simplest movements: we clap, do half-squats - springs, show flashlights, spin, stamp our feet),

- round dance around the Christmas tree (to any song about the Christmas tree),

— puppet theater viewing(more on this below),

— Christmas tree lights game when we blow, the lights on the Christmas tree go out (you need to agree with someone in advance so that this is provided). When we clap our hands, the lights come on again! Children's delight! But if we don’t do it together (for example, Vanya didn’t clap), then it doesn’t work, we must repeat!

— music making for children musical instruments. Give the kids the same bells, rattles and let them sound with them to cheerful music, and the toy bunny will dance to their accompaniment!

- mobile game.

How to decorate a Christmas tree if the family has children 1-2 years old

At this age of the child, the Christmas tree can already be placed on the floor, but make sure that it is stable and cannot fall. On the bottom tier of the tree(on high, accessible to the child) unbreakable toys are hung out - from paper, cardboard, cotton wool, fabric, wood. To the top tiers of the tree hanging breakable toys. We also hang tinsel on the upper tiers of the Christmas tree so that the child cannot pull it and accidentally drop the Christmas tree on the floor.

A child of one and a half - two years old can already be taught to decorate a Christmas tree by hanging several toys on it. It is very helpful for development fine motor skills And sensorimotor coordination. Make a thick loop of string for unbreakable toys and teach your baby to hang the toy on a branch and remove it. Do not expect the baby to decorate the whole Christmas tree - he will hang only 2-3 toys, or maybe only one. Leave the rest for next time. This difficult task for the child, and you should not overload him, forcing him to hang several toys at a time.

Happy New Year to relatives with a child 1-2 years old

Now it is more common for all adults to be focused on the child. In traditional folk pedagogy, for thousands of years early childhood taught the child to take care of loved ones. It was then that he would absorb the ability to be merciful, sympathetic, to help adults.

On the other hand, how much can such a baby? Alone - no, but together with my mother - a lot.

When we do with a baby 1-2 years old holiday crafts- gifts to grandparents and other relatives - there are two extremes.

First, the mother does everything for the child. It turns out beautifully, but whose craft is this?

Second: the child does everything himself. But ... it turns out ugly and obviously that this gift is not a fact that you will like it. Perhaps it will be accepted, but just for granted.

How to make the gift beautiful, and the child actively participated in its manufacture. The way out is the joint creativity of an adult and a child.

Examples of co-creation in manufacturing New Year's gifts with a child 1-2 years old:

- V New Year's card an adult draws a background: the sky, houses, snow on the ground. And the child “poke” draws only snow swirling in the air (we take a pencil and draw dots with the reverse “non-drawing” end of the pencil, immersing the pencil in white gouache),

- a child in the background winter forest, made by an adult, can draw traces of animals by sticking: jump-jump-jump, a bunny galloped here,

- a child can, together with an adult, mold sweets, apples on a Christmas tree from salt dough,

- you can instruct the baby to smear plasticine on the background, and then against this background, an adult lay out a picture of small parts of plasticine.

There are many possibilities and options! And there is a distribution of work - what does an adult, and something baby. Moreover, the adult does not interfere in the "children's" part. If you need to show something to the baby, then we show it on our own. separate sheet paper, not on a common postcard.

We consider New Year's pictures

With children 1-2 years old, you can already consider christmas pictures in books and postcards. Where is the Christmas tree, where is the star, where is the flashlight, ball, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden in the picture? And where is the star on our Christmas tree?

Round dances for children 1-2 years old

Children 1-2 years old really need round dances. It is in the round dance that the baby gets the first experience of interacting with peers. In the first round dances, all the kids do the same actions.

For example, the traditional New Year's round dance "Hare" for the smallest.

Zainka, come out,
Gray, get out!
Like this, come on out!
Like this, come on out!

Zainka, take a walk,
Gray, take a walk!
Like this, like this, take a walk
Like this, like this, take a walk.
Zainka, jump.
Grey, jump.
Like this, like this, jump.
Like this, like this, jump.
Zainka, stamp your foot,
Grey, stamp your foot.
Like this, like this, stomp your foot.
Zainka, dance,
Gray, dance,
Like this, like this, dance!
Like this, like this, dance!
Zainka, bow,
Gray, take a bow.
Like this, like this, bow down.
Like this, bow like this.

All children in a round dance and adults make movements in the text. On new year holiday a toy bunny can ask the kids to dance with him. Then we will take the bunny into our hands, put it in a round dance (the bunny will dance between two mothers) and dance with it.

If children know this round dance well and easily perform its movements, then the task can be complicated. Then one bunny is selected from the children, he depicts all the actions in the center of the round dance, and all the players repeat everything after him. At the end, another verse is added:

Zainka, choose!
Gray, choose!
Like this, like this, choose!
Like this, like this, choose!

For a child, being in the center of a round dance is a very important experience! After all, he needs to behave freely when everyone is looking at him and attention is focused on him. Not every child will immediately go to the center of the round dance. If the baby is not ready, let him just look at the round dance for now or just walk in it with you. When he gradually gets used to it, he will also go to the center of the circle (this may be in a week or two).

New Year for the little ones: how to show a puppet theater to children 1-2 years old

For puppet show It is not necessary to buy special toys. Your usual toys for children's games will also work.

Tip 1. Before the start of the performance, give the kids in the hands of toys - characters. Let him examine them, act with them. Let them become from new acquaintances to the child. Otherwise, during the performance, the baby will reach for new toys and demand to pick them up.

Tip 2. Instead of a screen, you can use:

— big box,

- a suitcase, decorating its bottom as a "scene with scenery", and top cover like "sky"

- regular table

- cloth stretched between two chairs,

- fabric stretched in the doorway.

Decorations can be made using clothespins: stick the figurine on the clothespin, and attach the clothespin to the fabric - the screen.

Tip 3. How to move the puppets during the performance:

- when the toy speaks, it moves (for example, bends over - sways towards the hero to whom it speaks). When the character is silent, he must be motionless.

- when the toy enters the stage, it moves either from the back of the stage to the children (if it is a box), or from right to left or left to right (if the stage is a regular table),

- if the toy needs to move something along the plot of the performance or pick it up, then you hold the doll with one hand, and with the other hand do necessary actions,

- if you show a performance with the help of bibabo dolls (dolls worn on the hand), then you can express different gestures with the help of the toy's hands. For example, arms to the sides - this is surprise, the doll rejoices - these are jumps, the doll brings the hands to the cheeks "oh!"

- if you used a toy and you don’t need it anymore during the performance, then put it in an opaque box so that it does not distract the children’s attention.

Tip 4. At the end of the performance, first let all the heroes - puppets bow to the audience, and all the spectators slap the artists and heroes - puppets. Mothers - viewers show the children a pattern of actions and guide them.

New Year's round dances for young children

Below you will find round dance options for home children's holiday. In order for the children to be able to play it, you must first sing a round dance with the baby at home before the holiday, make movements according to the text. Only then the baby will be able to act together with his peers at the holiday with pleasure and quickly, and will be glad that he heard a familiar melody and familiar words. Young children are very fond of repetition and everything recognizable and predictable. And they can not immediately get comfortable with a new dance for them.

It is enough to learn one dance or one round dance with movements according to the text. And the usual round dance around the Christmas tree, the baby can drive with other mothers and children and without preparation.

Dance with snowballs

For the dance, you need snowballs sewn from cotton wool. We take a ball of cotton and white thread with a needle. And we sew the cotton wool so that it becomes a dense white lump - a snowball. You can also make snowballs with your child from white paper, crushing it into lumps - balls. All movements are performed by children to the music in accordance with the text.

We took snowballs in our hands, ran along the path.
The kids ran, all dressed up are good! (2 p.)
We raise a snowball and shake it over our heads.
Swing over me my mischievous snowball. (2 p.)
Dance, you snowball, snowy little friend
Dance, do not yawn and repeat after us. (2 p.)
Let's stomp our feet, take the snowball in the palm of our hand
We will bring the Snow Maiden and return it to the basket. (2 p.)

Bunnies

Our kids had fun
And they circled and danced
Like bunnies jumping.
Jump-jump, jump-jump,
The shoe broke.
All the guys sat on the floor
Looked at the boots.
To mend shoes
Need to nail the nails.
Knock-knock-knock-knock
Need to nail the nails.
Oh, our legs are tired
We clap our hands
Clap-clap-clap-clap,
We clap our hands.
We tapped our hands
Our hands are tired
I'll put them down, I'll shake them,
Bye-bye-bye-bye.
We rested a little
Our feet are dancing again
La la la la.

Beads glitter on the Christmas tree

Beads glitter on the tree,
Flappers and a star.
We love our tree.
Yes Yes Yes! (the words of the verse are sung by an adult and older children, and the kids finish the last line of the song in chorus: yes-yes-yes).
And Santa Claus is cheerful -
gray beard -
Brings us gifts.
Yes Yes Yes!
Snow Maiden in a white coat
Always comes to us.
We sing and dance with her.
Yes Yes Yes! (N. Naydenova)

Dance with handkerchiefs

Who has a handkerchief in his hands
He will go to me in a circle.
He will show his handkerchief
Cheerfully wave.

Chorus: That's it, that's it,

We'll take the corners
Our colorful scarves.
And let's go higher, higher
Above our kids!

Chorus: That's it, that's it,
Here's my handkerchief! (2 times).

Let's all sit quietly in a circle,
Let's hide behind our handkerchief.
And then, and then -
We will find all the kids!

Chorus: That's it, that's it,
Here's my handkerchief! (2 times).

How they look like flowers
Our colorful scarves.
And our boys too
They all look like flowers!

Chorus: That's it, that's it,
Here's my handkerchief! (2 times).

Round dance "Mishenka"

Come out, Mishenka, dance, dance.
Paw, paw, Mishenka, wave, wave.
And we will go around Mishenka in a round dance,
Let's sing a fun song, let's sing!
Let's, we'll hit the patty, hit!
Will, will Mishenka dance for us, we dance!

Dance "Legs and palms"

Like our guys
Legs are fun!
Our people are remote
Even though it's very small!

Only the legs get tired
We clap our hands
In the palms of the hands
Merry chicks!

How can we run
No one can catch up with us!
We are a remote people
Even though it's very small!

And now squat
With my mom next to me
Down, up, one and two -
That's how kids dance!

“Kids are dancing” (to the motive “Oh, canopy ...”)

Here is our Mishenka (name of the child) gets up,
He will start dancing now.
Mishenka will dance
To amuse all the kids!
Misha, Misha, dance,
Wave to our kids.
Choose others to dance
And to amuse the kids!

Everyone clapped their hands (to the motive “Whether in the garden, in the garden ...”)

Everyone clapped their hands
Friendly, more fun.
Our feet are pounding
Louder and faster.

Let's hit the knees
Hush, hush, hush...
Handles, handles raise
Higher, higher, higher...

Our hands are turned
Were down again.
Spin around, spin around
And they stopped.

Rattle dance

Run with a rattle, run faster.
All the children with the rattle immediately became more cheerful.

Rattle, rattle louder
Louder, louder beat.
Dolls, bears, all animals
It immediately became more fun.
Christmas tree, Christmas tree, branches hung.
Fun, fun, fun for all the kids.
Circling around with a rattle
We circled more cheerfully.
All the kids with the rattle immediately became more fun.
Christmas tree, Christmas tree, branches hung.
Fun, fun, fun for all the kids.

I wish you happy new year public holidays and interesting family winter holidays!
