Relevance of the chosen topic.

A pet in a family is a powerful educational factor. The child learns to take care of him, look after him, he develops moral, volitional and labor qualities. This is not surprising, because every mother and every father wants their children to be kind, warm-hearted, and responsive. According to the scientist, “A person who does not love animals, who has never shown concern for them, cannot be kind.” By involving a child in joint activities to care for pets, adults develop in him sensitivity, the ability to understand other lives, encourage empathy, and cultivate a willingness to help in action. Children living in the city are mostly familiar (have in their families) with such representatives of domestic animals as cats, dogs, parrots. What other pets are there? In what conditions do they live, what benefits do they bring to humans, who are their cubs, what do they eat? To solve this problem, the “Pets” project arose. Project type:

cognitive - creative, short-term.

Long-term action plan

Consultation for parents:

"Children and Pets"

Intellectual development

* Animals are the source of the first knowledge about nature. A child sees an animal - he is drawn to it, recognizes its names, notes differences, and learns its behavior.

* Animals are the source of sensory development. No educational toy can compare to nature. The child directly through the senses perceives an object: shape, size, color, smell, spatial arrangement, movement, softness, texture of fur, etc.

* Animals are a source of development of logical thinking. Based on ideas about animals, children learn to see connections and dependencies: a kitty meows at a bowl - hungry, a ferret jumps high, gurgles - wants to play, hides - it hunts.

* Animals are a source for various types of activities - observation, play, work, creativity, etc. As a result, curiosity and observation are formed, and imagination develops.

Animals are a source of moral education

* Source of first experiences and joy. The child experiences positive emotions in communication with the animal. In modern society, this is precisely what is lacking most of all—positive experiences.

* In the process of communication, the child develops a sense of beauty. They learn to see natural beauty.

* In the process of activity, the child learns to show a careful (passive) and caring (active) attitude towards the animal world as a whole. In this way, the child develops the foundations of an ecological culture, which is an integral part of spiritual culture.

Animals are a source of aesthetic education and development

* Natural and natural beauty encourages children to be creative. Children love to reflect their experiences with animals in children's poems, stories of their own composition and, of course, in art activities.

Source of labor education

During the observation process, the child becomes familiar with simple labor operations. Under the guidance of adults, he develops basic skills in caring for animals. Additional information is acquired about living conditions in nature and at home.

Source of physical development

Animals are a source of health promotion and mental development: in the process of walking with a dog, ferret, rabbit, etc., in the process of work, children also improve physically.

Memo for parents:

“What are the dangers of pets for children?”

Even adults are touched when looking at a kitten or puppy. You want to pick him up, stroke him, kiss his pink nose. What to expect from children? For a child, a pet is not just an object of adoration and a play partner. A kitten, puppy or guinea pig becomes a friend for a child. He is in close constant contact with him, takes him to bed with him, feeds him from his spoon (while his parents are not looking). Without focusing on possible allergies or animal bites, let's talk about the invisible danger.

Even if a pet lives in the house and does not go anywhere, this does not guarantee that it is a carrier of parasitic diseases. Coming from the street, you can bring pieces of soil on the sole of your shoes where infected animals have walked.

Toxocariasis

- a disease that a baby can catch from a dog. Parasites can enter the child’s body if, after playing with the puppy, he does not wash his hands and sit down at the table. The larvae penetrate the intestinal walls, spread through the circulatory system, and from there they are transferred to the lungs, liver and even the eyes. The disease can be asymptomatic, causing only mild discomfort. Toxocariasis requires consultation with a parasitologist and the appointment of anti-parasitic devices.

Toxoplasmosis

– a disease that a child can catch from a cat. The eggs of parasites enter the intestines and grow there, turning into larvae. They penetrate the lymphatic system and spread throughout the body. They destroy internal organs and systems. In 80-90% of cases, toxoplasmosis does not produce obvious symptoms. But this disease poses the greatest danger to pregnant women.

Psittacosis

– a disease that a child can contract from birds (parrots, canaries, pigeons). More than 140 species of birds are carriers of the causative agent of this disease - chlamydia psitachi. Moreover, the birds themselves do not suffer from ornithosis. Birds shed chlamydia in nasal secretions and feces. Infection occurs when a child feeds the parrot mouth to mouth. If the cage has not been cleaned for a long time, the bird, flapping its wings, spreads dust and particles of infected feces around the room. A child can inhale this dust, the pathogen will enter the respiratory tract and cause a special type of pneumonia.

Memo for parents:

“How to protect a child from parasites transmitted by pets?”

— Never feed animals raw meat.

— Try to put all your shoes in the shoe closet when you get home.

— Once a year, have your animal examined at a veterinary clinic.

- Make sure your child washes their hands before eating. Better yet, teach your child to wash his hands with soap after each contact with an animal.

- Keep the birdcage clean.

— When cleaning the cat’s cage or litter box, put a medical mask on your face.
