ABOUT WATER
AND AIR
FOR CHILDREN 4-6 YEARS
Droplet travel.
A droplet lived in a large beautiful lake. She happily swam and dived. Once a droplet saw a bright sun and rose closer to the surface of the lake in order to better see it. She did not notice how she became a light parinka and began to rise up. It was cold upstairs, and she again turned into a droplet.
Other droplets also gathered in the sky, they turned into a white fluffy cloud. It floated across the sky. When many droplets gathered, the cloud darkened and became a cloud. The droplets did not stay in it and fell to the ground. There they joined in a stream. The brook murmured, had fun, ran further and further until it merged into the lake. The droplet recognized her lake and was delighted - she returned home!
We will call the journey of a droplet the water cycle in nature.
How the parinka turned into a snowflake.
An air droplet flew out of a small puddle - a steam. She was tired of sitting in a puddle, and she decided to take a walk in the sky. The higher the parinka rose into the sky, the colder it became. She froze and high, high in the sky turned into a crystal stick.
A cloud, walking in the sky, saw a lonely crystal and invited him to visit her. The little crystal was delighted, sank into a cloud and at the same moment turned into a light, delicate beauty-snowflake.
“How lonely it is here,” thought the snow beauty. Suddenly she heard a cheerful laugh. It turns out that she was not the only guest of the cloud. Snowflake quickly found a friend.
The snowflake lived by the cloud for two weeks. During this time, many more small crystals appeared in the cloud. As soon as they descended into a cloud, they immediately united, turned into light beautiful snowflakes.
The days went on as usual, and each new one was similar to the previous one. Once a beautiful snowflake decided to leave a cozy hospitable cloud. Her snowflake friends also decided to travel with the beautiful snowflake. In a quiet frosty evening, they fell from heaven to earth. Falling, they stuck together with each other, forming beautiful, patterned, fluffy flakes of snow. Our familiar snowflake, falling from a height, also found girlfriends and united with them.
Layer after layer of snow fell on the ground, forming snowdrifts. But they were loose, because the snowflakes were loosely pressed against each other and there was air between them.
The winter has passed. Spring has come, which our snowflake has been waiting for. She wanted to return without fail to that puddle from which she once flew out and rose up. The spring rays of the sun warmed everything warmer and warmer. Soon the snowdrifts began to melt. Instead, puddles appeared on the ground. There were more and more of them every day. And finally, all the snowdrifts turned into puddles, streams and entire lakes. And the beautiful snowflake, together with her friends, turned into small droplets. Here is a story that happened with a little bit of steam.
Tale of water.
Once upon a time there was Water, and one day she decided to make Nature beautiful. Water decided to go around the world and observe Nature. She turned into a small stream and flowed over the Earth. Over time, the Creek became wider and wider, bigger and stronger. Soon the Brook turned into a River and flowed not quickly, like a stream, but slowly and importantly, like a real river flows. Suddenly the Sun shone brightly, the River dried up and became Steam. The steam rose high and high and asked the Sun:
- The sun, why did you dry me?
The sun answers:
- Do not be afraid, I will help you to do good to everyone!
Par asks:
- Sun, tell me, how can I make Nature beautiful?
The sun smiled and answered:
- You can guess, and I'll just tell you. Plants and trees need rain!
Par exclaimed:
- Exactly! Thank you Sun!
And turned into Steam Rain. He watered everything around and admires: all the trees and bushes bloomed again, the birds sang their cheerful songs, even oases appeared in the deserts. All people and animals shouted joyfully:
- Thank you, Rain!
And the Rain gathered again in a ringing Brook and flowed, ran merrily along the ground. He was very happy and pleased that he did something good for Mother Nature. Brook was very pleased. Then he ran to clean the Seas and Oceans from salt.
The brook reached the Sea and called out to him:
- Hello, Sea!
The sea replied:
- Hello, sonorous Brook! What do you want?
Brook said:
- Can I take some salt from you for people to eat?
The sea thought
- Okay, Brook, here's my salt. Use it however you like.
The brook happily replied:
- Yes OK! Thank you Sea!
They said goodbye, and Brook gave salt to people's food so that they were healthy, and then returned to his original form.
The water spoke to Nature and said:
- Nature, I made you beautiful, I made people healthy, I helped the Sea get rid of excess salt. I have fulfilled my purpose.
Nature answers:
- Thank you, Water, I am very grateful to you!
On that they parted. Water, having fulfilled its purpose, returned to its home and began to live in peace and do good to the whole world.
There lived a river.
There lived a river. At first, she was a small, cheerful stream that hid among tall, slender firs and white-trunked birches. And everyone said: what a clean, what a tasty water in this stream! Then the stream turned into a real river. The water in it did not flow so fast, but it was still clear and clean.
The river loved to travel. One day she found herself in the city. Spruces and birches did not grow here, but there were huge houses in which people lived. Many people. They rejoiced at Reka and asked her to stay in the city. The river agreed, and she was chained in stone banks. Steamships and boats began to walk along it, people sunbathed on the banks. The river watered the whole city.
Years passed, people got used to the River, but they no longer asked her for anything, but did whatever they wanted. Once a huge factory was built on its banks, from the pipes of which dirty streams flowed into the River. The River darkened from sadness, became dirty and muddy. Nobody said: “What a clean, beautiful river!” No one walked on its banks. Various unnecessary things were thrown into the River: cans, logs, cars were washed in it, clothes were washed. And none of the townspeople thought that the River was also alive. And she was very worried. “Why do people treat me so badly? After all, I gave them water, turned the turbines of power plants, gave light, protected them from the heat on hot days, ”she thought.
People polluted the River more and more, and she endured everything, waiting for them to finally come to their senses.
Once a large tanker sailed down the River, from which a lot of oil spilled into the water. The River was covered with a black film, its inhabitants - plants, animals - began to suffocate without air. River got sick. “No,” he thinks, “I can no longer stay with people. We must get away from them, otherwise I will become a dead river.
She called her residents for help: “I have always been your home, and now trouble has come, people have destroyed your house, and I got sick. Help me recover, and we will leave here for other lands, away from ungrateful people.” The river inhabitants gathered: plants, fish, snails, and animals - they cleaned their house of dirt, cured the River. And she ran to the edge of her childhood. There, where spruce and birch trees grew, where a person is a rare guest.
And the inhabitants of the city the next day were surprised to find that they were left alone, without the River. There was no light in the houses, the factories stopped, the water from the taps disappeared. There is nothing to wash, nothing to drink, nothing to cook soup from. Stopped life in the city. Its inhabitants became so dirty that they stopped recognizing each other. However, it did not matter: there was still no light in the evenings.
And then one day the day came when the townspeople ate all their food supplies. Then the oldest and wisest Citizen said: “Dear fellow citizens! I know why the River left us. When I was very young, I bathed in its clear water. She has always been our friend and helper, but we did not appreciate this and treated her like an enemy. We unfairly offended Rechka and must ask her forgiveness. I propose to go to distant countries to bow to our nurse. We must apologize to her and pledge our friendship. Maybe then she'll come back."
The strongest and most enduring townspeople set out to look for the River. They searched for a long time, and when they found it, they did not immediately recognize it: after all, it became clean and transparent. The people asked River to return to the city as soon as possible, told how bad they felt without her, promised their care. The river was kind and did not remember evil. In addition, she began to miss the people she had become accustomed to over the long years of living in the city.
The River returned to the city to help its inhabitants. And people removed all the garbage, cleaned the plant's effluents and even assigned special scientists to monitor the health and well-being of the River. Since then, in this city, people and the River live together. And recently, the River was made an honorary citizen of the city, and the Day of its return is celebrated as the most important holiday.
Stupid bunny and brook.
One day, the bunny thought about running away from home. He ran away, but he still knew the way back. Here he sees a stream running. And the brook says to the hare: “Let's go race to run. Whoever runs to the forest faster, he won. The bunny agreed. So they ran to the forest.
They run, run, run, and then the bunny did not see the brook and shouts: “Where are you, brook?” And the brook replies: “I evaporated and turned into a fog. Well, let's keep running. Where there is fog, there I am. And they ran. They run, run, run, and then the bunny did not see the fog and shouted: “Where are you, streamlet, which fog?”
“I am here,” says the brook, “I have turned into a cloud. Well, let's run!"
The bewildered bunny and the brook continued on their way. They run, they run, and then the bunny did not see the stream. The bunny shouts: “Where are you, a stream, which is fog, which is a cloud?” The brook replies: “I have turned into rain. Well, let's run." And they ran, but suddenly the rain stopped, and again the bunny shouted: “Where are you, brook, which is fog, which is a cloud, which is rain?” The brook replies: “I am here, under your paws. The rain stopped, and I became a stream again.
The stupid hare and the brook ran together to the forest. But the hare did not understand anything.
"Good Air"
In a pure kingdom, in an airy state, there was an unusual school. Forest school. At a lesson at the Forest School, the Wise Owl told the animals about the air.
All living things on earth know that air is necessary, - said the Wise Owl. It nourishes all the cells of our body, supports the fire. People, animals, plants breathe air. Air is everywhere, it is large and all-pervading. Air can absorb moisture, carry it, and then, in another place, give it away. Air protects the earth from cosmic rays harmful to all living things, and resists falling meteorites.
The animals listened attentively to the Wise Owl. And after the lessons, the little Fox cub suddenly said: “But I don’t need air. I still don't see him."
At that moment, an unknown force swooped in, spun and spun around the Little Fox, and took him away with it. Before the Fox cub had time to come to his senses, he ended up on another planet. It was the planet Mars. There is practically no air on Mars, and the air shell does not protect this planet. The entire surface of Mars was bombed by meteorites.
Just a few minutes the Fox cub was on another planet. He was out of breath. But the good forces took pity on him, and returned him to a pure kingdom, to an airy state.
It was then that Fox Cub appreciated the value of air. Nothing that he did not see the air. The main thing is that air exists. Good, pervasive air.
"How the bear cub caught the air"
One autumn day Paddington was sitting on the porch of his house reading a book. The book was so interesting that Paddington could not tear himself away and forgot about everything in the world. When I finished reading, I found that I was very hungry. Well, nothing, because there are always favorite sandwiches with jam in the bag! Paddington opened the bag, but there was not a single sandwich! There weren't even crumbs!
What happened? Who could steal the sandwiches?
Sir Henry was passing by, and Paddington rushed to him.
Sir Henry, my sandwiches have been stolen! - he shouted - There is nothing in the bag!
Nothing at all?
Just look for yourself,” said Paddington and opened the bag, “there’s nothing!
Well, not really anything. There is air there,” Sir Henry smiled.
He flew away! Sir Henry laughed and went on about his business.
And Paddington sat down on the step and thought. So it was Air who stole his sandwiches and then flew away. We must find him and catch him, let him give back what he took.
And Paddington went to catch air.
He walked along the path, and when he came to the river, he saw a fish. She floundered helplessly on the shore. Seeing the bear cub, she began to beg him to throw her back into the water, which Paddington readily did.
Thank you, little bear! - the fish thanked him, - And then I didn’t have enough air on the shore. A little more and I would have completely suffocated.
Does Air live in water? Paddington was surprised.
And it's in the water too. It is dissolved in water, and I breathe it through the gills, - the fish confirmed.
Yes, I can’t catch him in the water, but I don’t know how to swim, - the bear cub thought, - probably, this is some other Air. My bag is dry and there is no water.
What are you doing? asked the little bear.
I fill the balloons with air, - the boy answered.
So he hid inside the ball! - exclaimed Paddington and asked - give me one ball, please.
Hold, - and the boy handed him a red ball.
Paddington stepped aside a little.
There you are, Air! he yelled. Why did you steal my jam sandwiches? Confess!
And how do you speak then if there is no mouth? – with doubt asked teddy bear.
Well, I don't know how it works. Sound is what? This is an air concussion. Here I myself am shaking, my voice is obtained!
What do you have then? – already with interest began to question Air Paddington.
What is something, - Air thought, - is my lightness. I am very light, lighter than stone and even lighter than water. I would fly up, but this heavy ball, in which I sit, keeps me.
What if I let you out? Paddington untied the balloon and it immediately deflated. Where are you now, Air?
I am everywhere! I am around you! You breathe me in and breathe me out! - so ticklish, - Air laughed.
Who are you talking to? Paddington heard the voice of Sir Henry returning.
With Air. We made friends with him! - happily said the bear, - and he did not take my sandwiches, as I first thought.
Of course I didn’t, Sir Henry laughed, but look at your mouth.
Paddington walked to the glass door of the verandah and looked at his reflection. His whole mouth was covered in jam!
So I ate it myself! - the bear cub exclaimed in confusion, - he read so much that he did not notice ...
So you thought in vain about the Air. Food is not for him. Although he does not take strength. The air is very strong and can lift a lot! Or maybe shoot.
With these words, Sir Henry hurried back up the path away from Paddington, leaving the bear in thought. And how can such light Air be strong? He can also shoot. But how?
"The Tale of the Dragon and the Wind"
Lived at that time on a deserted island, lost somewhere in the ocean, the Great Dragon. He lived there alone, and did not have a single friend. The sun, of course, shone on the island, and the moon and stars gave their light, but there was no one to chat and talk with. The dragon did not know how to swim and fly, so he could not go in search of friends. But one day a small boat sailed to the island. There was a boy in it, just like you. The air bubble smiled mischievously. - The boy's oar broke, and he swam where the water current carried him, there was no wind at that time. He was very tired and hungry, and besides, he wanted to go home to his mother.
When the boat was washed ashore, the boy was very frightened of the Great Dragon, but after a while they became real friends, they talked a lot, played, the boy even taught the dragon to sing. But, of course, the boy really wanted to return home to his mother. He tried to make a new oar, but nothing worked. Once, when the dragon was fanning the fire for dinner, and the boy was sitting and looking sadly at the sparks of fire, an amazing idea came to his mind.
Listen, - he turned to the dragon, - there is complete silence and peace around us, and when you blow on the fire, the air is no longer calm, it flies quickly, quickly, fanning the fire. What is this?
I don't know, - the dragon answered, - I can blow on a tree so hard that it will break. I can blow away a whole mountain of sand. When I blow, it turns out ... it turns out ... Let's call it wind?
Come on, - the boy agreed, - what is the wind and why does it happen?
Well, probably because before blowing, I inhale a lot of air, fill my mouth, full chest and even a full stomach. The air becomes crowded there, the pressure with which it presses on me from the inside is greater than from the outside, so it flies back quickly. This is where the wind comes in. Air from the high pressure zone enters the low pressure zone!
How amazing! - the boy clapped his hands, - you invented the wind. And can you blow on my boat so hard that it floats on the sea and swims to my house?
Probably, yes, - the dragon sighed, - but then we will never see each other again! I will be here alone again. But you're right, you should try. After all, your mother is waiting for you at home.
To make it easier for the dragon to blow on the boat and push it. the boy made a sail for the boat. Then he said goodbye to his friend and got into the boat.
I will remember you! - shouted the boy, - maybe we'll see each other someday!
The dragon took a deep breath and blew, then another and another. The farther the boat sailed, the harder the dragon had to blow so that it continued to swim. Soon the boat disappeared from sight, and the dragon blew and blew. Night gave way to day, but he still did not stop blowing. The dragon was very worried about his friend, he stopped only ten days later, when he was completely exhausted.
But when it stopped blowing, the wind didn't stop! He blew himself! What a miracle. It turns out that the Great Dragon mixed the air so much in 10 days that now the air pressure was no longer the same everywhere. Somewhere the pressure became high, and somewhere low. And the wind was blowing from high pressure places. - Great! - the dragon admired, - now my friend will definitely swim to the house, and I won't worry about him. And now I'm not alone here on the island. The wind is with me, so different, fickle and cheerful! And he drives the clouds, all the time different. That's so beautiful!
Ecological fairy tale for children of senior preschool age
"Air, Water, Fire"
A long time ago, three sisters lived on planet Earth. The oldest was called Air, the middle one was Water, the youngest was called Fire. The sisters were inseparable and friendly. But once a dispute arose between them, which of them is more important and more necessary for a person.
Sister Air says:
I am the first who appeared on planet Earth, life began to emerge with me: plants, animals, birds, insects, and, of course, man. Without air, a living organism cannot live more than three minutes.
The middle sister objected - Water.
I am more important than anyone in the world. Even every blade of grass, the smallest bird, will not live long without me. What can we say about fish and animals whose home is water. And a person starts every morning by washing his face and brushing his teeth, preparing food and drinks, washing clothes, watering plants, and all thanks to me. I am the most needed on the planet!
In order for a person to cook food and not freeze in a severe frost, fire is needed, the younger sister said. - When a person appeared on planet Earth, air and water were available to him, and he invented me himself. So I am more important for a person.
For a long time the sisters argued about their importance, but did not come to any decision. Then the sisters turned to the planet Earth:
Mother planet Earth, judge which of us is more important and necessary?
Planet Earth answered:
My dear daughters, the three elements - Air, Water and Fire, do not quarrel, but rather look at how a person treats each of you. The one who sees a caring attitude towards herself, the one who will be the most important.
The sisters began to think about the words of the mother of the planet, and decided to observe human behavior in the city. The first volunteered to see the older sister - Air.
A man will take care of me, where can he be without clean air.
But suddenly she saw how the cars released exhaust gas, and coughed. In the distance stood large plants and factories, exhaling puffs of black, blue, green smoke. The older sister wept.
A person does not protect me at all, he does not need me, apparently.
The middle sister, Water, chuckled:
I know for sure that a person is obliged to protect me. Where would he be without me?
As soon as she said the last word, as from the same plant, chemical waste began to pour directly into a clean river. Before the eyes of the middle sister, fish, crayfish and other river animals began to die. The person who drank such water was sick.
Angry Water:
How is it possible: they themselves poison the water, and then they drink it !!!
The middle sister was completely desperate. And only the youngest still hoped for the championship. But when she saw how the fire was not extinguished in the forest, and the flame embraced all living things around, she prayed:
Mother, planet Earth, I don’t want to be in a person’s life, but I was created to bring benefit, not harm.
The sisters Air, Water and Fire have completely drooped, they no longer remember their disagreements.
Maybe we don't need a person at all? Maybe it's better that we weren't in his life at all?
Wait! Do not hurry! - called out to them the planet Earth. You have seen only the worst deeds of man, but there are other people. There are many children on the planet, and they appreciate your participation in their lives. For example, they see off the winter and meet the spring on the Shrovetide holiday. Children prepare a doll from multi-colored fabric, burning it on the street. Everyone sings, dances, rejoices, eat pancakes, which cannot be cooked without fire. In the summer, when it is very hot, kids celebrate "Neptune's Day". They joyfully water each other from watering cans, sprinklers, glorifying water. With the help of air, the children blow soap bubbles, the teacher helps them organize games with a kite and spinners.
Kindergarten teachers teach children to protect nature. Even the smallest children know that water quenches thirst not only for humans and animals, but plants also need it. To be healthy children need to walk more in the fresh air. And you can’t play with matches, otherwise trouble will happen!
The sisters looked at each other, wiped away their tears, and decided:
If there are children on planet Earth, then they equally need air, water and fire.
Since then, the three sisters Air, Water and Fire began to live together.

Who gave life to the earth?
Who gave life to the earth? To whom should she be grateful? She inherited no more than others: mostly a very small amount of oxygen. You can't live on this.
The planet will not live. The star will not live. The sun will not live. But the Earth is alive. The Earth breathes oxygen!
And all this is from nothing. Literally from nothing. By your labor. With your worries.
Here it is, our Earth.
With a capital letter Earth.
Although often it is written with a small letter.
"Water and Air"
Once upon a time there was an ocean, it had a very, very much water and the atmosphere is a very large amount of air. Their lives were boring. Nobody lived in the ocean, nothing grew, not a single plant. No one lived in the air either. Decided to go air to visit the water. The water rejoiced at his arrival. They became friends. After some time, the ocean noticed that plants appeared in its water - algae, fish, crabs, beautiful shells formed. The ocean was very happy and told the air about it. And the air was also very joyful, he told his friend the ocean that, having woken up in the morning, he heard birds singing, saw colorful butterflies flying, everything around became bright and beautiful. They realized that this was due to their friendship, as the ocean gives water to the atmosphere, and the atmosphere gives air to the ocean. You can't live without water, just like you can't live without air, and you can't live without air, just like you can't live without water. That's how good it is to have friends!
"Great Controversy"
Once, Queen Atmosphere and King Neptune argued about which of them is more important. Queen Atmosphere says that it is impossible to live on Earth without air. And Neptune says that you cannot live without water. So they argued for a long time. To resolve their dispute, they decided to ask someone.
They were the first to meet plants. Atmosphere asks:
What is more important to you, air or water? Plants answered them:
You can't live without water! We need water for growth and nutrition.
Neptune rejoiced:
King Neptune and Queen Atmosphere looked at each other. And we decided to ask people and animals more. But here they heard the same thing.
And they decided not to argue with each other anymore. Boiling life on Earth. And everything is important for this life: both air and water.
"All living things need water"
There lived a hare. One day he decided to take a walk in the woods. The day was very cloudy, it was raining, but this did not prevent the bunny from taking a morning walk through his native forest. A bunny walks, walks, and a hedgehog, not a head, not legs, meets him in a friend.
- Hello hedgehog! Why are you so sad?"
- "Hello bunny! And why rejoice, look at the weather, it has been raining all morning, the mood is disgusting.
- "Hedgehog, imagine what would happen if there was no rain at all, but the sun always shone."
- “It would be great, you can walk, sing songs, have fun!”
- “Yeah, a hedgehog, no matter how. If there is no rain, all trees, grass, flowers, all living things will wither and die.”
- "Come on, hare, I don't believe you."
- "Let's check it out"?
- And how are we going to check it?
- "Very simple, here, hold a hedgehog a bouquet of flowers, this is a gift from me to you."
- “Oh thank you bunny, you are a real friend!”
- "Hedgehog and you give me flowers."
- "Yes, just keep it."
- “And now it's time to check the hedgehog. Now we will go each to our own home. I will put my flowers in a vase and pour water into it. And you, a hedgehog, also put flowers in a vase, but do not pour water.
- "Good hare. Goodbye"!
Three days have passed. The hare, as usual, went out for a walk in the forest. On this day, the bright sun shone and warmed with its warm rays. A bunny walks and suddenly a hedgehog meets him, not his head, not his legs.
- "Hedgehog, are you sad again"? The rain has long ended, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the butterflies are fluttering. You should rejoice."
- “Yes, why should the hare rejoice. The flowers you gave me have withered. I'm so sorry, it was your gift."
- “Hedgehog, did you understand why your flowers withered”?
“Of course I understand, now I understand everything. They withered because they were in a vase without water.”
- “Yes, a hedgehog, all living things need water. If there is no water, all living things will dry up and die. And rain is water droplets that fall to the ground and nourish all flowers and plants. Trees. Therefore, you need to rejoice in everything and the rain and the sun.
- “Bunny, I understand everything, thank you. Let's go for a walk in the forest together and enjoy everything around!
« The tale of water, the most wonderful miracle on Earth"
Once upon a time there was a king, and he had three sons. Once the king gathered his sons and ordered them to bring a MIRACLE. The eldest son brought gold and silver, the middle son brought precious stones, and the youngest son brought plain water. Everyone began to laugh at him, and he said:
Water is the greatest miracle on Earth. For a sip of water, a traveler I met was ready to give me all his jewels. He suffered from thirst. I gave him clean water to drink and gave him a supply with me. I did not need his jewelry, I realized that water is more precious than any wealth.
And another time I saw a drought. Without rain, the whole field dried up. It came to life only after it started to rain, filling it with life-giving moisture.
For the third time, I had to help people put out a forest fire. Many animals suffered from it. If we didn’t stop the fire, the whole village could burn down if it were thrown onto it. We needed a lot of water, but we coped with the whole world. That was the end of my search.
And now, I think, you all understand why water is a wonderful miracle, because without it there would be nothing living on Earth. And birds, and animals, and fish, and people will not live a day without water. And water has magical powers: it turns into ice and steam, - the youngest son finished his story and showed all the honest people the wonderful properties of water.
The king listened to his youngest son and declared water to be the greatest miracle on earth. He commanded in his royal decree to save water, not to pollute water bodies.
"Rowan"
There was once a husband and wife, and they had two children. The eldest, unloved, and her name was unkind, her name was Eight. She was angry, wayward, envious, but her parents affectionately called their little son Romanushka. He was kind and friendly, his parents doted on him. Eighthly disliked Romanushka and planned to destroy him. Once she took a child into a swamp and killed her. But she did not manage to destroy Romanushka completely. A friendly and curly tree grew in that place, has been growing since then throughout the Russian land, and the people affectionately called it "Ryabinushka".
In the folk calendar there is a day "Peter-Paul Fieldfare", which falls at the end of September - the time of ripening berries. On this day, branches with berries were tied into bundles and hung under the roofs of houses. The custom is associated with the idea of mountain ash as a tree that can protect a person from all sorts of troubles. Mountain ash is a symbol and guarantee of happiness and peace in the family, so they tried to plant a mountain ash near the house. Therefore, the mountain ash is a favorite character of Russian folklore.
"Sunflower"
Once a girl Masha dropped a seed on the ground, right next to the window of her house. After the rain had passed, Masha noticed a small sprout, began to take care of it, water it. But no matter how hard Masha tried, the sprout grew with difficulty, and then she asked her dad: “Dad, why do I water the sprout every day, loosen the ground, but it doesn’t grow?” Then dad smiled and said:
“Masha, this is a sunflower, he doesn’t have enough water, he loves the light, and you have it in the shade. Let's transplant it while it's small so that the sunflower can get better sun exposure."
Masha and dad carefully transplanted the plant to the sunny side. Masha couldn't be happier. Every morning she ran to her sunflower and looked to see if it had bloomed, and one early morning Masha saw a “big yellow hat”, it was her sunflower. He turned his head straight towards the sun, which helped him survive and flourish.
"Rose hip"
One early morning in June, the "wild rose" woke up, straightened its leaves on the stems, which she really liked. There were many of them, and they shaded the flowers with their greenery so beautifully that the rose carefully monitored their purity. And when it rained, she made sure that every leaf was thoroughly washed, but a particularly wild rose was proud of its flowers. But how could one not be proud of them! They really looked like real garden roses. The white flowers emitted such a fragrance that all the nearest bees flocked as soon as they heard it. Our wild rose was more proud than all the other plants. The same wild rose as she, but with pink flowers, she considered less attractive than herself. Yes, and she ordered everyone to call herself only a wild rose, although more and more she was called under a different name - wild rose. Rose is the queen of flowers. How could our wild rose change this title for some non-sounding rosehip.
So, the rose woke up, washed herself with dew, powdered the stamens of flowers with pollen and began to wait for the guests.
Many insects came to the rose to feast on the pollen. The rose treated, and if she did not like someone, she drove away with her sharp, like a real rose, thorns. These spikes served her as a weapon against herbivores. If not for them, some cow or a horse passing by would have already had dinner with it long ago. So day after day went on, until one day a bee said to a wild rose: “Hello, white dog rose.” Rose was so angry that she forbade all insects to come to visit her. A day or two passed, the beauty became bored, and all the insects were visiting the pink dog rose. On the third day, the rose saw a beautiful butterfly flying past and called to her.
Oh, you stupid white rose, said the butterfly, don't you know that you need the insects you drove away even more than they need you. If they do not pollinate your flowers, then you will not bear fruit.
Yes, but they called me a wild rose, - the rose exclaimed indignantly.
And you are a wild rose and you should be proud of it. What are the benefits of a garden rose? She is beautiful and smells, but she is not useful, and you are a wild rose, a medicinal plant. Combining the beauty of a garden rose and the usefulness for people in medicine, the wild rose is far superior to an ordinary rose. In autumn, when orange or red fruits ripen on your branches, people will pick them up and dry them. And in winter, when there will be few vitamins, they will begin to make tea for themselves and remember the wild rose with a kind word. And many garden roses are your descendants. For example, such as tea roses.
Well, I have to go. - And the butterfly flew away. And the rose invited guests to her place.
"About how birch and willow remained faithful to their home"
It was a long time ago. A small birch lived in the old reserved forest. Her name was Rosyanka. Why? Waking up early in the morning, she washed her face with night dew.
Other trees grew next to it. Different. Among them are oak and maple. They were proud of their unusually beautiful carved leaves and did not want to know anyone in the forest. They were very important. Both oak and maple often laughed at Rosinka, her leaves seemed to them very simple, unpretentious.
A willow also lived near Rosinka. They called her in the forest Fluffy, because the reverse side of her leaves was soft and warm. With her zaznayki-neighbors did not want to be friends. And Rosinka liked the willow. And they became friends, in the summer they rejoiced together in the sun and rain. In autumn, they covered the ground together with fallen leaves to cover their roots from hunger, slept together in winter, had wonderful dreams about spring and summer.
But all of a sudden everything changed. The Snow Queen decided that she could not get the North Pole and needed to expand the boundaries of her possessions. And a very long winter came to the forest with severe frosts and cold winds, and the summer became short. The trees in the forest got agitated, worried and decided that it was better to give in to the Snow Queen and go where it was warm. After consulting, they came to the conclusion to put all their strength into seeds and fly away with the wind to warm countries.
But then the voices of Dewdrop and Fluffy were heard. They offered to stay, because here is their home. Leave him to fend for himself? Especially in such a difficult moment? But no one listened to them. Everyone just talked about how good it would be for them in a foreign land, in warmth.
As the days passed, the wind carried the seeds of the trees to where it was warm. The turn came to Rosinka and Pushinka - they resolutely refused to leave their native land, as the wind did not persuade them.
And they stayed at home, only with time they became completely different, because the cruel Snow Queen decided to destroy them and sent a severe frost that bound the earth. But in it are the roots that feed and water the tree.
But neither Rosinka nor Fluffy were afraid, but transferred their roots to the topsoil. What did it give them? During the short summer, they managed to stock up on water and food for the whole winter.
The Snow Queen did not calm down even here, she ordered the wind to destroy them at all costs. But even now the friends did not give up: they only bent the branches to the ground and hid them under the snow. At the same time, their branches became small, small. Since that time, Rosinka and Fluffy have been called dwarf.
But now the Snow Queen could not sleep peacefully: two small trees did not want to submit to her! She decided to kill them with thirst. But our friends thought and thought and again found a way out - they decided to reduce their leaves, and the birch covered them with a wax coating, and Fluffy made them even more pinnate in order to drink less water.
So the Snow Queen could not conquer the birch and willow. They loved their native land very much and were very close friends.
"Health Grass"
The boy Vanya was walking along a forest clearing. He walked, singing a song, and did not notice that he was trampling on grass that was completely unsightly to the eye. But suddenly he stumbled on a cobblestone and broke his knee. The injury was so severe that it bled. "What to do? No water, no brilliant green, no bandage, thought Vanya. “How can I treat my wound?”
And suddenly I heard:
I can help you.
And Vanya angrily:
Who are you? And how can you help me?
And I'm a small, completely inconspicuous plant. Although I have thick, strong, wiry leaves, it still hurts me when someone accidentally steps on me. But it takes me a long time to grow up. My little seed must fall into the ground, it must be rained, warmed by the sun. Only then will it release its stem. Time will pass, the root will get fat, the stem will fill with strength, the leaves will become large and will fill with healing juice. Since ancient times, people have known my healing properties. By applying my leaf to the wound, you can stop the bleeding.
Yes, indeed, you are so small, but you can do so much, - Vanya answers. - What is your name?
Plantain.
I will know now, take care of you, and tell my friends. And we will be friends together: both people and plants. Make friends and help each other.
"Oak"
Once upon a time, there lived a king. He was very famous and rich. And he had a daughter whom he loved more than anything in the world. Once the princess fell ill, she stopped drinking, eating, and every day she became weaker. The king was saddened, he called all his court doctors and ordered them to cure his daughter by any means. No matter how hard the wise men tried, but they did not succeed, the princess continued to get sick. By chance, a wanderer drove by, drove into the palace and found out about the royal trouble.
And he said to the king: “I can cure your daughter. In your garden grows the right cure for your daughter's ailment. According to the horoscope of the Druids, each person has his own tree, so to speak, a guardian angel. You just need to stand under your tree and many ailments will recede back. Your daughter's tree is oak, this tree has healing power due to the content of phytoncides.
The wanderer led the princess into the garden and said: “Stand under the oak tree, hug it, hugging it with your whole body. Stand on the ground with your bare feet, and you will feel better.”
A few days later, the princess came to life, turned pink, she had an appetite, she began to recover. The generous king, in gratitude, offered the wanderer the hand of his daughter. Since then, they live in peace and harmony, happiness and health. And under the window grows a mighty oak, which is carefully looked after by the princess and her relatives. The oak has become a friend of the family, they water it, dig the soil around the trunk, so as not to damage the roots.
"Owl"
Dunno once went to the forest. I took a walk - look, but it's already getting dark. We must hurry home. Suddenly, right in front of him, a large gray bird landed noiselessly on a stump.
Who are you? - Dunno was scared.
You are a bird. But why are you flying at night then? After all, other birds are already sleeping.
You see, Dunno, I can't see well during the day when the sun is shining brightly. It blinds me. But I do not see even late at night, as you think, I fly in the evening, in gray twilight.
Ah, that's why you're so grey. But why should you be gray, because then no one will see you? And yet, you fly silently - no one will hear you.
I must be invisible and inaudible so that those small animals, mice, bunnies, birds that I hunt, do not hear me. And I'm the only one. Cats and some other nocturnal animals also hunt in this way.
"Mysterious Beast"
The cat catches mice, the seagull eats fish, the flycatcher eats flies. Tell me what you eat and I'll tell you who you are. And I hear a voice:
Guess who am I? And I eat bugs and ants
I thought and said firmly:
That's not guessed! I still eat wasps and bumblebees!
Aha! You are a bird-honey!
Not a honey buzzard! I also eat caterpillars and larvae!
Thrushes love caterpillars and larvae.
And I'm not a thrush! I also gnaw on antlers shed by moose.
Then you must be a wood mouse.
And not a mouse at all. Sometimes I eat mice myself!
Mice? Then, of course, you are a cat.
That mouse, that cat! And you didn't guess at all.
Show yourself! - I shouted. And he began to peer into the dark spruce, from where a voice was heard.
I'll show myself. Only you admit defeat.
Early! I answered.
Sometimes I eat lizard. And occasionally fish.
Maybe you are a heron?
Not a heron. I catch chicks and carry eggs from bird nests.
Looks like you're a marten.
Don't talk to me about the marten. The marten is my old enemy. And I also eat kidneys, nuts, seeds of fir trees and pines, berries and mushrooms.
I got angry and shouted: “I give up!” The branches swayed, parted and I saw a squirrel!
Remember! she said. - Cats eat more than just mice, seagulls don't just eat fish, and flycatchers don't just eat flies.
And squirrels gnaw not only nuts. I am the most famous animal in the forest.
For parents:
Look at the poster carefully with your child.
It encodes the basic properties of air.
- air has no shape
- air has no color
- the air has no taste
- air is invisible
- the air is odorless.
To prove this, you have to go with your child
conduct a series of experiments.
Experience No. 1 "Air has no shape"
You will need:
- three balls of different shapes.
Target:
prove that air has no shape.
Experiment progress:
The child inflates three balloons of various shapes.
What's happening:
The air takes on the shape of the balloon you just inflated.
Conclusion: air has no form.
Experience number 2 "Air has no color"
You will need:
paper .
Target: show that air is transparent.
Experiment progress: Compare air with opaque objects.
Let's take a sheet of paper. It is opaque - through it we do not see the surrounding objects. And you can see everything through the air.
Conclusion:the air is transparent, because the surrounding objects are visible through it.Experience No. 3 "The air has no taste"
Experiment progress:
Ask your child the following questions: Does the air have a taste? (NO) Can we try it? (YES) Open your mouth and inhale. Do you feel anything? (no) What conclusion can we draw? Does the air have a taste?
Conclusion: so the air has no taste.
Experience No. 4 "Invisible Air"
You will need:
- two bowls of water and a glass.
Pick up an empty glass and ask your baby:
Do you think this glass is empty? Look closely, is there anything in it? And now we will check it.
Hold the glass straight and lower slowly. What happens? Why doesn't water get into the glass? What's stopping you from lowering the glass?
Conclusion: There is air in the glass, it does not let water into it.
And now you again offer to lower the glass into the water, but now hold the glass not straight, but slightly tilted.
What appears in the water? (bubbles). Where did they come from? (Air comes out of the glass and water takes its place) And why did we first think that the glass was empty? (Because air is not visible, it is transparent)
Conclusion: Air is invisible, but surrounds us everywhere.Experience number 5 "The air has no smell"
You will need:
(for older preschool children)
Program content: Form an idea about the air, its properties (colorless, has weight, odorless, lighter than water, moves); about the role in the life of living beings.
Develop an interest in learning and experimentation.
To develop thinking, to teach to draw conclusions in the process of experiment, to substantiate judgments.
Materials and equipment: Hanging scales; 2 identical balloons; a glass of water for each; tubes for a cocktail; an empty glass for each; transparent container with water; 2 candles; jar; matches; fans for each; cellophane bags for each; sharp sticks for each; soap bubbles on the floor of the group; cards - designations of air properties; toy Frog; bundled balloons.
preliminary work: Conversation "Living and non-living nature"; looking at illustrations in an encyclopedia; observations while walking the wind.
Educator:Guys, today we will have an unusual lesson.
Remember, we talked about living and non-living nature. Let's remember what refers to wildlife (people, animals, plants)?
And what about inanimate nature (stones, water, air, soil, stars)?
Well done! Now listen carefully to the riddle. If you solve it, you will know what we will talk about today in class.
We need it to breathe
To inflate the balloon.
With us every hour
But we do not see it for us.
That's right, it's air.
Guys, what do you know and can say about the air?
Our entire planet is shrouded in an air blanket. Air is everywhere: on the street, in the room, in the ground, water and even inside us.
(Sounds come from outside the door)
Frog: Oh, help me, save me, I'm flying!!!
Educator: Who is that screaming (opening the doors)?
(A frog flies into the room on balloons).
Hello frog! How did you get to us?
Frog: Hello guys! I was walking with balloons, but suddenly the wind picked me up and carried me, carried me and brought me to your kindergarten.
How interesting are you here! What are you doing here? May I stay?
Educator: Of course, stay. Today we are talking about the air with the guys.
frog: About the air? What is air? I heard something about him, but never met him. Maybe it doesn't exist at all?
Educator: Wait, frog. I have never met him either, but I know that he is around us.
Frog: I don't see anything. Where is he? Where did he hide?
Educator: He didn't hide anywhere. Guys, let's prove to the frog that there really is air. I invite everyone to the mini-laboratory so that we can conduct experiments like real scientists (children move to the tables).
Experience #1 "How to Catch Air".
Educator: Take plastic bags from the table and try to catch air.
Roll up the packages. What happened to the packages? What is in them? What is he? Do you see him?
Frog: I'm sure there's nothing there!
Educator: Fine! Let's check. Take a sharp stick and carefully pierce the bag. Bring it to your face and press it with your hands. What do you feel?
(The teacher brings the package to the frog).
Frog: I don't see it, but I feel it.
Educator: Well done frog! You yourself have drawn the correct conclusion that air cannot be seen, but it can be felt.
Let's put on the easel a card-designation of the property of air “Air has no color. It's transparent."
Experience #2"What's in the glass?"
Educator: Look, I have a glass in my hands. Do you think it's empty?
Frog: It is clear to everyone that there is nothing in it.
Educator: Now we'll check it out. We need a container of water and this glass.
Turn the glass upside down and slowly lower it into the water. Please note that the glass must be kept level.
What do you see? Does water get into the glass?
We take out. Look, the outside of the glass is wet, but inside?
(The teacher invites the children to touch the glass inside).
Guys, why didn't the water get into the glass? What can be the conclusion?
That's right, there is air in the glass, it does not let water into it.
And now, let's try to lower our glass into the water, but we will keep it slightly tilted. Look carefully what appeared in the water?
We see air bubbles. Where did he come from?
What can be the conclusion?
When a glass is lowered into water, it gradually displaces air from it, taking its place.
Frog: Guys, I also remembered how you can see the air! I sat in the pond and blew bubbles through the straw into the water. It was so much fun.
Educator: Well done frog! You told me another interesting experiment with air.
Experience No. 3"Air is lighter than water"
Educator: In front of you are glasses of water and straws for a cocktail. Insert the straws into the water and blow into them. What do you see? What comes out of the water with bubbles? Where does it come from?
Frog: Why do bubbles rise to the surface?
Educator: Because air is lighter than water.
Let's put another card on the easel - the designation of the property of air "Air is lighter than water."
Guys, frog! I have a little surprise for you.
(The teacher takes out soap bubbles).
What is this? What do you think is inside the bubbles? Let's play a little. First, some children will inflate them, others will catch them, and then vice versa.
Fizminutka "Soap bubbles".
Now let's go to our laboratory. We are waiting for new discoveries!
Do you think air has weight?
Frog: Of course not!
Educator: Want to check it out?
Experience No. 4 "Does air have weight?"
(The teacher picks up a balloon.)
What do I have in my hands? Why is it called that? Well done!
We will need scales and two identical balloons.
These scales can be made by yourself from a string and a stick (shows scales).
On both sides I hung the balls. Look, now the scales are balanced.
I'll take a sharp stick and pierce one of the balls.
What happened? What can be the conclusion?
The air balloon went down, and the burst balloon went up. So a balloon with air is heavier than a balloon without air.
We put on the easel a new card-designation of the property of air “Air has weight”.
Frog: I wonder if the air smells? What do you guys think?
Educator: Try to suck in air through your nose. Does it smell?
We put the following card "The air has no smell"
Frog: Then why does the kitchen smell of pies, and flowers in the meadow
Educator: Wait, don't rush. I'll try to explain to you. The air has no smell, but moving, it can bring it to our noses.
Frog: Does he still know how to move?
Educator: Tell the frog, how did you come to visit us today?
Frog: The wind brought me.
Educator: Guys, what is the wind? What is the wind like?
Wind is the movement of air. Can we feel the movement of air? What about seeing?
On a walk, we often observe the movement of air (trees sway, clouds run, a spinner spins, steam from the mouth).
Can we feel the movement of air in the room? How?
Experience No. 5"Air Movement"
Pick up a fan, wave in front of your face. What did you feel?
And if we opened the window now, how would we feel? Well done!
So, we conclude that the air is moving and put a new card-designation of the properties of air.
Guys, today we talked a lot about air, its properties, but we forgot to say the most important thing, that air is necessary for all living things. Without it, we will not live even 5 minutes.
Try it, close your mouth and pinch your nose with two fingers. Don't breathe.
Why did you remove your hand and open your mouth? What did you miss? Did you feel good without air?
Let's do one more experiment.
Experience No. 6 "Why does the flame go out?"
Take 2 candles, light them. We will cover one of them with a jar and observe what happens.
Why did the candle in the jar go out?
The jar ran out of oxygen and produced carbon dioxide. In the same way, we cannot live without oxygen in the air.
Tell me guys, where does oxygen come from?
Frog: So if there were no plants, we wouldn't be able to breathe?
Educator: That's right frog!
Children, what can you conclude?
We need to plant more plants and not pollute the air with exhaust gases. We need to protect our planet, take care of the purity of the air.
Well done boys! You worked very well, learned a lot, and I hope you remember a lot.
Let's remember on the cards-designations everything that we talked about in the lesson.
1. Air has no color.
2. Air is lighter than water.
3. The air is odorless.
4. Air has weight.
5. Air is moving.
6. We breathe air. He is part of nature.
Frog: Thank you guys for such an interesting activity. Now I'm the smartest frog in the world!
Educator: Be sure to visit us again.
Frog: I want to give you these balloons. Now I know why they are called air!!!
