Victory Day in kindergarten. May 9 in the kindergarten

The Great Patriotic War is getting farther and farther, the veterans are getting smaller, the Great Victory Day is also moving away from us. Today, the issue of educating patriotic feelings among the younger generation is very acute. Unfortunately, many children do not understand the significance of the May 9 holiday, despite the fact that their great-grandfathers paid their lives for today's peace and freedom. A sense of respect for this date should be brought up from early childhood. Victory Day in kindergarten is a holiday of peace, a tribute to the courage and heroism of Soviet soldiers in the fight against fascism.

In order for the younger generation to truly understand the whole significance and feel the spirit of the great victory of the USSR in 1945, educators and methodologists need to exert considerable effort, creating a script for Victory Day in the kindergarten. He must be imbued with patriotism and some pathos, but at the same time it is understandable and interesting for preschoolers.

How to spend Victory Day in kindergarten?

This holiday should be held annually in the middle, senior and preparatory age group. Now the types of its holding are very diverse - it can be:

• Children's morning performances for children of medium groups.
• Holidays according to the scenario for middle and senior age groups.
• Sports events dedicated to the Victory Day in older age groups and preparatory groups.

Whichever type of event is chosen, qualitative preparation for its conduct is necessary. I would like to note that it is not necessary to work on the same scenario every year, because this can cause a feeling of indifference not only in the educator, but also in children. And the main task of the holiday is the education of the child as a real person.

Unfortunately, there is such a category of educators that considers Victory Day in a kindergarten a formal event and conducts it "for a tick". Such an attitude of adults can never bring up in children feelings of respect, compassion, respect for heroes, love for the Motherland and its merits, and most importantly - the guys will not be able to understand the true greatness of the Victory Day.

Preparation of the celebration

This case is troublesome, but it's worth it. Victory Day in kindergartens is called upon to evoke in children a sense of pride and admiration for their country and people. To do this, remember that every child should take part in the preparation of the holiday itself. For example, ask children to draw pictures on the themes "Peace", "Soviet soldier", "Motherland" and then by May 9 to arrange an exhibition of works.

At the matinee, veterans or their relatives should be invited, for whom children will read poems or sing songs. If guests agree to attend a kindergarten, the script "Victory Day" should include time for communication between the veteran and pupils. At the end of the meeting the children will give them postcards made with their own hands, and flowers.

You can at one of the classes devoted to the date of May 9, 1945, show the children a thematic documentary. Let the children see how people perceived the news of the end of the war. How sincerely they did not hide their tears, hugged each other, met the winners with flowers in their hands.

I would like to note that in the preschool age children do not need to talk about bloody battles and how many deaths and sufferings there were. This can hurt the gentle child's psyche. Let the kids perceive the holiday as joy.

Room decoration

Victory Day in kindergarten often takes place in the music hall. In order to create an atmosphere of festive mood, you need to properly decorate the room.

For this event, despite the solemnity of the event, the decoration of the hall should be sustained in the framework of strictness and restraint. For example, let paper flowers with the image of joyful faces of children among them be hung on the main wall, and under them a St. George ribbon with the inscription "Victory Day" should be placed.

If you fulfill all the requirements for decorating the hall in good faith, then May 9 in the kindergarten will be memorable and bright.

Scenario

Most holidays in kindergarten are held according to the scenario. It should be designed taking into account the age opportunities of pupils and include information necessary for the development of the child and accessible to his perception. So, for example, the phrase "May 9-Victory Day" should contain a script for the kindergarten. This is necessary for the formation of children inextricably linking these two concepts.

Also, when drawing up the scenario "Victory Day - May 9" in the kindergarten, one should remember that the holiday should not be seriously delayed. Children 4-6 years old quickly get tired, so the event should last an average of 40-60 minutes. Contests held within the framework of the scenario should correspond to the theme of the holiday.

The event scenario can contain the following items:

1. The guys come into the hall accompanied by teachers to the music of the military waltz.
2. The teacher greets the audience and in a few words talks about the holiday. You can prepare a presentation using slides in advance.
3. The guys are singing the song "Victory Day".
4. The children of the older group play the scene "In the dugout".
5. Entertaining part of the program. The guys participate in contests, solve riddles about military equipment.
6. The final speech of the teacher. Children distribute postcards made by themselves.

Whom to invite to the holiday

Of course, not a single kindergarten festival can not do without the participation of parents. On a celebration called "Victory Day" in a kindergarten is to invite grandfathers and grandmothers. They sincerely will be pleased with successes of the grandson or the grand daughter, and the holiday will stir up in their soul memoirs on difficult military or uneasy post-war time.

Children usually very diligently produce invitation cards on a given topic, and the tutor signs them, specifying the time of the event. No bought card will replace a postcard made by children's hands, because they are filled with love and warmth of a pure soul.

When to celebrate?

Due to the fact that Victory Day is always declared a day off throughout Russia, it is better to spend the 9th of May in kindergarten on the last working day before the legal holiday. If parents are invited, the event is better planned for the evening time.

It is compulsory for the educator to invite the kids to visit the Victory Parade in your village. Whatever the holiday in the garden, he can not replace the real parade and the feelings that every child has when he sees marching young soldiers or goes to lay flowers at the monument of an unknown soldier, where eternal fire burns.

Victory Day in the kindergarten and at home

Victory Day in kindergarten is a large-scale mass event, conducted with an educational and educational purpose.

But do not forget that in every family there were heroes of the Great Patriotic War. And children should not look at old photographs as pictures, every child should know about a man who fought for a peaceful sky above his head. He should treat these people with respect and respect.

The event "Victory Day" in kindergartens can tell children about the significance of this event for the country and the people. But as yet there is a possibility, the child needs to hear the story of a grandmother or grandfather, great-grandmother or great-grandfather about the heroes who fought for their Motherland, whom they remember personally. Maybe there are military trophies or letters in the house - show them to the child, ask the teacher in the kindergarten to make a thematic exhibition on the memorable date.
