“A healthy lifestyle is great!”
“Taking care of health is the most important job of a teacher. Their spiritual life, worldview, mental development, strength of knowledge, and self-confidence depend on the cheerfulness and vigor of children.”
V.A. Sukhomlinsky.
A healthy lifestyle for preschool children is not only physical activity, but also a whole range of measures that should become a priority for the child’s parents. Until the age of 7, a child goes through a huge developmental path, during which both his physical health and personal qualities are established. They are interconnected with each other, which is why it is so important at the very beginning of life to form a base of knowledge and skills for a healthy lifestyle in the baby.
The main aspects aimed at improving the health of preschool children include:
– motor mode;
– personal hygiene;
– hardening.
In our work with children with severe visual impairments (blind and visually impaired children), we use various forms, means and methods of forming the foundations of a healthy lifestyle in preschoolers. The main forms of work are didactic games, creating situations, reading and discussing fiction, project and productive activities, walking, and routine moments. In the daily routine and in direct educational activities we use motor and emotional-psychological relief (physical training minutes, motor discharge, elements of relaxation).
Personal hygiene is extremely important for a child’s health. At the very beginning of life, the baby must learn that the body needs to be looked after. This is important not only for the good condition of the body, but also for the health of others. The child must have personal items: comb, toothbrush, towel and handkerchief. From childhood, you need to teach him how to use these items correctly.
We offer you original didactic games.

Homemade games for children in the middle group
Manufacturers of children's goods offer an increasingly diverse range of games and toys for early development. However, it is not necessary to use only purchased teaching materials. In many cases, homemade games and add-ons to store-bought sets may be suitable.
The teacher should not completely take upon himself all the hassle associated with the production of the elements necessary for the game. His task is to identify the goal and convey it to the parents. Conversations should emphasize the importance of their participation in the life of the group.
Note! Items made by mother's or father's hands are of great importance for any child and help his socialization among his peers.
Making educational games with your own hands
Parents can make elements that bring children's play closer to reality.
- Sew clothes and bed linen for the doll corner. Help in making masks for theatrical activities.
- To maintain interest in toys, some of the available games should be removed from the free access area into drawers and boxes covered with the same self-adhesive paper. It is convenient to use games in which small parts are not mixed together, but are placed in bags specially sewn for them. Parents can easily help decorate toy containers beautifully.
- The Seasons Corner is an important teaching material for which exhibits cannot be purchased. But natural materials and hand-made crafts are excellent for use.
Corner of the seasons
- The demonstration material will also be useful for studying local history. The teacher is unlikely to be able to purchase ready-to-use sets on the topics “My City”, “My Republic”, etc. Most likely, a card index is best suited for such activities, the pictures for which will be specially selected and printed.
