Productive children's activity is the activity of a child with the goal of obtaining a product (construction, drawing, appliqué, molded crafts, etc.) that has certain specified qualities (N.I. Ganoshenko).

Productive types of children's activities include designing, drawing, modeling, appliqué and creating various kinds of crafts and models from natural and waste materials. All these types of children's activities play an important role in the development of a child - a preschooler.

Productive children's activity is formed in preschool age and, along with play, is of greatest importance during this period for the development of the child's psyche, since the need to create a product is closely related to the development of his cognitive processes, emotional and volitional sphere, skills, moral , aesthetic and physical education of preschool children.

These actions develop not only imaginative forms of thinking, but also such qualities as focus, the ability to plan one’s activities, and achieve a certain result.

The social and personal development of a child is facilitated by the opportunity for him to demonstrate creative activity, initiative in creating drawings, modeling, and crafts that he can use himself or show and give to others.

In the process of visual activity and design, children develop the ability for purposeful activity and volitional regulation of behavior.

For the artistic and aesthetic development of a child, the modeling nature of productive activity plays an important role, allowing him to reflect the reality around him at his own discretion and create certain images. And this has a positive effect on the development of imagination, imaginative thinking, and creative activity of the child.

It is important to cultivate in children an aesthetic attitude towards the environment, the ability to see and feel beauty, and develop artistic taste and creative abilities. A preschooler is attracted to everything bright, sounding, and moving. This attraction combines both cognitive interests and an aesthetic attitude towards the object, which is manifested both in evaluative phenomena and in the activities of children.

Productive activity plays a big role in nurturing the aesthetic senses of a preschooler. The specific nature of drawing classes provides ample opportunities for experiencing beauty and for developing children’s emotional and aesthetic attitude to reality. Productive activity shows a person the world of really existing beauty, shapes his beliefs, influences behavior, and promotes the development of children’s creative abilities, which is possible only in the process of preschoolers acquiring and practically applying knowledge, skills and abilities.

Productive activity is closely related to solving problems of moral education. This connection is carried out through the content of children’s work, which reinforces a certain attitude towards the surrounding reality, and through the development in children of observation, activity, independence, the ability to listen and carry out a task, and bring the work started to completion.

In the process of depiction, the attitude towards the depicted is consolidated, since the child experiences the feelings that he experienced when perceiving this phenomenon. Therefore, the content of the work has a great influence on the formation of the child’s personality. Nature provides rich material for aesthetic and ethical experiences: bright combinations of colors, a variety of shapes, the majestic beauty of many phenomena (thunderstorm, sea surf, blizzard, etc.).

When properly organized, productive activities have a positive effect on the child’s physical development, help raise overall vitality, and create a cheerful, cheerful mood. During classes, the correct training posture is developed, since productive activity is almost always associated with a static position and a certain posture. Performing applicative images promotes the development of hand muscles and coordination of movements.

In the process of systematic classes in designing, drawing, modeling, and appliqué, cognitive processes develop:

— Children’s visual representations of surrounding objects are clarified and deepened. A child’s drawing sometimes indicates a child’s misconception about a subject, but it is not always possible to judge from the drawing whether the child’s ideas are correct. The child’s idea is broader and richer than his visual capabilities, since the development of ideas outstrips the development of visual skills.

— In the process of productive activity, the child’s visual memory is actively formed. As is known, developed memory serves as a necessary condition for successful cognition of reality, since thanks to memory processes, memorization, recognition, reproduction of cognizable objects and phenomena, and consolidation of past experience occur. Fine creativity is unthinkable without operating with images of the child’s memory and ideas obtained directly in the process of drawing. The ultimate goal for a preschooler is such knowledge of a subject that would make it possible to master the skill completely freely and depict it according to the idea.

— The development of visual-figurative thinking occurs in the learning process. Research by N.P. Sakulina showed that successful mastery of image techniques and the creation of an expressive image require not only clear ideas about individual objects, but also the establishment of connections between the appearance of an object and its purpose in a number of objects or phenomena. Therefore, before starting the image, children solve mental problems based on the concepts they have formed, and then look for ways to implement this task.

— The fundamental point in design is the analytical and synthetic activity of examining objects. It makes it possible to establish the structure of an object and its parts, and take into account the logic of their connection. Thus, a tower with a too narrow base collapses. Based on analytical-synthetic activity, the child plans the course of construction and creates a plan. The success of the implementation of a plan is largely determined by the preschooler’s ability to plan and control its progress.

— In classes on drawing, modeling, applique and design, children’s speech develops: the names of shapes, colors and their shades, spatial designations are learned, and their vocabulary is enriched. The teacher involves children in explaining tasks and the sequence of their completion. In the process of analyzing the work, at the end of the lesson, children talk about their drawings, modeling, and express judgments about the work of other children.

In the process of systematic design and application classes, children intensively develop sensory and mental abilities. The formation of ideas about objects requires the assimilation of knowledge about their properties and qualities, shape, color, size, position in space.

In the design process, preschoolers acquire special knowledge, skills and abilities. By constructing from building material, they get to know each other

— with geometric volumetric shapes;

- with techniques for modifying flat forms by bending, folding, cutting, gluing paper, resulting in a new three-dimensional form.

When designing from paper, children's knowledge of geometric plane figures, concepts of sides, angles, and center are clarified. Get ideas about the meaning of symmetry, balance, proportions;

In the process of productive activity, such important personality qualities as mental activity, curiosity, independence, initiative, which are the main components of creative activity, are formed. The child learns to be active in observation, doing work, showing independence and initiative in thinking through content, selecting materials, and using a variety of means of artistic expression.

Equally important is the education in the process of productive activity of purposefulness in work, the ability to complete it, accuracy, the ability to work in a team, diligence, and inquisitiveness.

According to teachers and psychologists, a child’s mastery of types of productive activities is an indicator of a high level of his overall development and preparation for school. Productive activities greatly contribute to the mastery of mathematics, work skills, and writing.

The processes of writing and drawing have superficial similarities: in both cases, they are graphic activities with tools that leave marks in the form of lines on paper. This requires a certain position of the body and hands, the skill of holding a pencil and pen correctly. Learning to draw creates the necessary prerequisites for successful mastery of writing.

During productive activities, children learn to use materials carefully, keep them clean and tidy, and use only the necessary materials in a certain sequence. All these points contribute to successful learning activities in all lessons.

Conclusion.

Productive activity is an important means of all-round development of children. Learning to draw, sculpt, appliqué, and design contributes to the mental, moral, aesthetic and physical education of preschool children.

Directions

We invite you to get to know productive activities more closely in order to have an accurate idea of ​​​​it.

  1. Independent creation of various objects that are suitable for games, educational and research activities.
  2. Making objects that will fill the art gallery of a preschool institution.
  3. Ability to create layouts.
  4. Design of the group’s own book, which will contain drawings, stories of children, and their chronicles. You can also create a nature diary, and the children will decorate it with pictures and a herbarium.
  5. Making decorations and decorations for the holidays. For example, garlands, posters, posters, Christmas tree decorations.
  6. Creation of invitation cards for the holiday for parents, greeting cards for them, souvenirs that will be distributed at the end of the performance.
  7. Development of a wall newspaper for the group.
  8. Making up a story as a group. You can diversify your activities by creating a fairy tale or story each time so that each word begins with the same letter. By the way, this is a very good activity for developing oral creativity, logic, and helping in learning to read and write.
  9. Creating your own performance. You can prepare your own script for it, and the children should help. The scenery and costume elements are also collectively created.

Why is all this needed? The fact is that the development of productive activities for preschoolers is not only interesting, but also very useful.

art

It is necessary to engage in this activity collectively, drawing on one topic. Fine art allows us to instill in children a sense of beauty, an aesthetic understanding of the world and individual objects. The development of productive activity in preschoolers is priceless, because classes teach them to see beauty in everything around them, and only a harmonious, developed and intelligent person is capable of this. Children develop a sense of aesthetics, they change their attitude towards every bug, blade of grass, you just have to tell them correctly what and how to draw. For example: “Look what long antennae this bug has, it won’t be able to live without them, so be sure to draw it.” Well, how can a beetle tear off these antennae after catching it in the grass? The child learns to see only the good in everything, his behavior changes for the better, and his beliefs are formed.

Modeling and applique

The peculiarity of modeling is that a child can create a three-dimensional image of cars, animals, fruits and other favorite objects. The topics are very diverse. Modeling has a great effect on fine motor skills, develops imagination and a sense of space, because after making objects they can be placed further or closer to each other, and satisfies children’s needs for knowledge and creativity.

By creating applications, children learn to independently cut out objects, place them in the right places, and stick objects and elements onto paper. Here, again, the development of finger motor skills and coordination are involved. To create an applique, you need to think hard, think creatively, because the details rarely contain whole and clear objects, so you need to compare them correctly. In addition, the preschooler gets acquainted with mathematics by studying simple geometric shapes. The idea of ​​the placement of objects in space (in the corner, in the center, on the right or left) and the size of parts (large or small triangle) also develops.

You can make a mosaic not only from pieces of paper, but also from lumps. This is also quite entertaining, and no less useful for development.

Construction

This is one of the most favorite productive activities of preschoolers. Who didn't love Legos? The peculiarity of the classes is that the children must assemble the object correctly, find the necessary parts and fasten them together. Construction develops spatial orientation, motor skills, creative and logical thinking, aesthetic perception - whether the child likes his creation or not. In addition, the child becomes familiar with the features of parts (color, weight, material from which they are made, shape). The child begins to understand architectural forms in volume, and develops his own taste and opinion.

You can design not only from ready-made parts, but also from paper, boxes, stones, shells, sand; kids learn to recognize parts, combine them, and synthesize them.
