Educational portal. System of relaxation exercises for preschool children Relaxation exercises for children 3 years old

Whims, fatigue, disturbed sleep, lack of appetite. Sometimes parents cannot understand what is happening to their little child. It's very simple: babies are almost always in a state of high psycho-emotional arousal. There are plenty of reasons for this: stressful situations, adaptation, crisis age, fatigue, overexertion. Throughout the day, the baby receives such a volume of information that it is not easy for his body to cope with it. Hence the severe stress, which affects the toddler’s behavior.

Special relaxation exercises for relieving stress in children help to get positive emotions, relieve tension and eliminate nervousness. After all, to develop a healthy psyche, a child needs to be able to relax.

Relaxation games in kindergarten

Which child doesn't like games? It is this form - play - that is actively used when conducting relaxation exercises for young children. The advantage of such exercises is that they can be performed at any time and do not require additional inventory. The technique is selected taking into account the age and inclinations of the children.

For example, breathing exercises help relieve anxiety and calm children before quiet time. It is better to carry it out on fresh air so that the body, in addition to peace, also receives oxygen enrichment.

To relax your muscles, you can do a simple simple exercise. Invite the kids to clench their fists or tense their tummies for 10 minutes, and then “let go” of the state of tension. In order for the result to be maximum, relaxation should be carried out in a semi-recumbent position.

Sound therapy is an excellent way to relax. Children listen with interest and pleasure to the sound of the forest, sea surf or rain. In addition, they also try to imagine the picture in their imagination. This not only calms you down, but also perfectly lifts your spirits.

Children older than school age They perceive art therapy well, or in other words, creative activities: drawing, designing, sculpting. During such exercises, children’s psycho-emotional stress is relieved, and in addition, creative development also occurs.

Relaxation exercises for schoolchildren

It is necessary to teach your child to relax and control his emotional state before school age. A first grader should already be able to calm down on his own after a fun break and focus on receiving new information. For younger schoolchildren, breathing exercises or the auto-training method are most suitable.

Reduce excitement and switch to educational process Deep breathing helps. The child needs to inhale slowly through the nose, but exhale through the mouth. A few of these exercises - and the child is ready for the lesson!

As for auto-training, a mental parachute descent will help the student switch to mental activity even before the “imaginary” landing.

Relaxation is an important component of the full development of children. But the ability to relax does not come immediately. To do this, you need to conduct relaxation exercises daily. Just 10-15 minutes a day will help eliminate many of the problems that school-age children face.

Neuromuscular relaxation according to Jacobson for children

Edmund Jacobson, an American neurologist, developed a set of relaxation exercises for the muscular system. Constant stress and suppression of emotions lead to muscle tension. The author of the technique discovered that the emotional state and muscle tone are very closely interconnected, so his exercises help relax the muscular system and normalize the psycho-emotional state. And, importantly, Jacobson’s relaxation is useful not only for children, but also for their parents.

Before proceeding directly to the exercises, you should pay attention to important conditions relaxation:

comfortable body position (lying or sitting);
Muscle tension occurs as you inhale, and relaxation occurs as you exhale (no more than 5 seconds);
each exercise must be performed twice.

And now we offer a set of relaxation exercises for children:

"Icicle". Squeeze your hands as much as possible, then relax.
"Reach for the cloud." You need to stretch your arms forward, as if you need to get something. Then we relax them and lower them as we exhale. After this, we raise the handles up and try to mentally reach the cloud and lower them again.
"Butterfly". Just as a butterfly folds its wings, children should bring their shoulder blades together. After which they spread their “wings” again.
"Turtle". Invite the children to feel like a turtle trying to hide its head in its shell (kids raise their shoulders to their ears), and then stick it out of its “house”.
"Heels - toes." First, children try to pull their heels towards their knees, after which they relax their legs. Then they pull their toes and also relax while exhaling.
"Wrinkled face." Kids wrinkle their nose, forehead, cheeks, and eyes, as if they had eaten a very sour lemon. As you exhale, children relax their facial muscles.
"Smile". Encourage your child to smile as wide as possible. When exhaling, he should make a tube with his lips and make some sound.

It is advisable that parents perform such exercises with their children and do not forget to praise their child.

Relaxation exercises for aggressive children

It is important for all children to be able to relax, but for children with increased anxiety and aggressiveness it is simply necessary.

First, you should take care of the location of the classes. It is very important that an anxious child feels comfortable, so a cozy room with a gentle color scheme will create the right atmosphere and will not cause aggression in the baby.

As for relaxation exercises, for this category of children, exercises to relax the muscular system will be useful. For example, "Fight". Invite your child to imagine a situation as if he had a quarrel with his friend. The child is preparing for the upcoming fight, while his hands should be clenched into fists as tightly as possible and his jaws should be closed. Ask him to fix this state for a few minutes, and then remember the good deeds of his friend - and let go of the tension.

Auto-training perfectly relieves aggression. After all, imagining ourselves to be a calm person, we ultimately become one. A mental walk through the forest or the sea coast will relieve unnecessary stress and give positive emotions.

Deep breathing exercises are simply necessary for children with increased aggressiveness. Therefore, a few deep breaths and exhalations will help the child become much calmer and more peaceful.

It is very important that there is physical contact during relaxation exercises. Aggressive children need to be taught to perceive other people normally and treat them without anger or mistrust.

Relaxation exercises for children who stutter

Scientists have proven that speech activity and the psyche are interconnected. Therefore, correction of stuttering in children includes not only the work of a speech therapist, but also relaxation exercises to relax muscle and psycho-emotional tension.

A stuttering child, trying to tell something, strains the muscles of his face and throat so much that as a result the whole body experiences tension. muscular system bodies. Therefore, it is very important to first carry out exercises that will help relieve general tension, and only then conduct classes to relax the speech apparatus. You need to complete the set of exercises breathing exercises. By the way, you can use Jacobson’s technique for correction.

Relaxation exercises for children with cerebral palsy

Children with cerebral palsy will benefit from relaxing and breathing exercises, the purpose of which is to reduce muscle tightness and relieve emotional tension. In addition, classes will help increase physical activity and increase the level of self-control in children.

Exercise “Let's get to know each other!”

Invite your child to sit on the mat. Then, taking a deep breath, the baby should slowly raise his arms up, clasp his palms over the headboard and hold his breath. We exhale through the mouth, while the child should lean forward and lower his arms to the floor. As you exhale, you need to say your name, or your last name.

Exercise “Growing Flower”

The gardening instructor invites the child to imagine himself as a small and wrinkled seed (the child shrinks into a ball, hides his head and covers it with his arms). The “adult gardener,” while caring for the grain, strokes the baby’s back and head—and the “flower child” begins to grow. First, a stem and leaves appear (the baby’s body and arms slowly stretch forward), then buds appear (the hands clench into fists). And finally, the flower blooms (the fists unclench sharply).

Exercise “Annoying fly”

Invite your baby to lie down and close his eyes. Next, he should imagine that he is lying on the spring grass, and the sun is warming him. But suddenly a fly landed on my forehead. Invite the child to wiggle his eyebrows and drive it away - the fly did not fly away, but moved to one cheek (the child inflates it), and then to the other (the child inflates the other cheek). The annoying insect is circling around its eyes, ask it to blink them. A fly sits on his chin - suggest moving his jaw.

Breathing exercises “Artist”

The baby takes a deep breath and slowly raises his arms above his head. You need to hold your breath for a few seconds. Then we exhale, pronounce a long sound [a] and lower our arms.

We slowly raise our hands, only this time we fix them in front of us, and hold our breath. Exhaling, we pronounce a long sound [u] - and lower the arms.

Explanatory note

Relaxation (from Latin relaxation - weakening, relaxation) - deep muscle relaxation, accompanied by the release of mental stress. Relaxation can be either involuntary or voluntary, achieved as a result of the use of special psychophysiological techniques.

As you know, emotions and feelings are difficult to regulate by will. Adults need to remember this when faced with unwanted or unexpected childhood emotions. It is better not to evaluate the child’s feelings in such acute situations, since this will only lead to misunderstanding or negativism. You cannot demand from a child not to experience what he experiences and feels; You can only limit the form of manifestation of his negative emotions. In addition, our task is not to suppress or eradicate emotions, but to teach children to feel their emotions, manage their behavior, and hear their body.

Children really like doing relaxation exercises because they have an element of play. They, unlike adults, quickly learn the difficult ability to relax.

Having learned to relax, each child receives what he previously lacked. This equally applies to any mental processes: cognitive, emotional or volitional. In the process of relaxation the body the best way redistributes energy and tries to bring the body to balance and harmony.

By relaxing, excited, restless children gradually become more balanced, attentive and patient. Children who are inhibited, constrained, lethargic and timid acquire confidence, cheerfulness, and freedom in expressing their feelings and thoughts.

Such systematic work allows the child’s body to relieve excess tension and restore balance, thereby maintaining mental health.

Features of performing relaxation exercises by older children preschool age:

The time to complete one exercise is no more than 4-5 minutes
- During one lesson, you can use exercises from different blocks, depending on the focus of the GCD
- Relaxation includes a set of 3-4 exercises on different groups muscles
- A session of complete relaxation is carried out with musical accompaniment and text aimed at calmness and recuperation
- The main objective of performing the exercises is to teach children recovery techniques for further independent use
- Ending relaxation only on a positive note

Training session (basics of relaxation)

Choose a place on the carpet or warm floor where you can sit with your child. You are close, but do not touch each other.
1. You need to lie on your back so that you can relax comfortably and pleasantly with me for a few minutes. We'll just talk and relax and rest. You see that I am also here on the mat with you. Close your eyes and imagine that you are holding heavy sand balls in your hands. Squeeze the “balls” tightly in your fists, hold tight while I count to ten. Ten - release the “balls” from your hands. Do you feel how light your hands have become? Relax your hands, let your palm and fingers rest.
2. Imagine that your shoulders have become tiny, like Thumbelina's. Squeeze your shoulders, make them small, press your shoulders as close to your neck as possible. I will count to ten, and at “ten” - straighten your shoulders, let them become free, like the wings of a bird. Feel how the tension (fatigue) leaves your shoulders.
3. Close your eyes again. Now we will relax the facial muscles, so open your mouth wide, as wide as possible, and I count - one, two, three - relax your mouth, close it. Is it really good? Lift the tongue in your mouth up and press it to the roof of your mouth, press it tightly and tense your jaw, hard! One-two-three - lower the tongue. The face became calm and relaxed. Now try to make a “scary face”! Wrinkle your nose, frown your eyebrows, purse your lips angrily! - One, two, three - Smile, you were just joking, right? All the muscles of your face have relaxed, do you feel how light your face has become?
4. Close your eyes again. Imagine that you need to run very quickly along a track. Your legs tensed, your tummy tightened, and you “ran”! I count to ten, and you keep your legs and tummy tense, as if you were still running. Ten - you've come running, end of the race, you're first! Now you can rest and relax, your legs have become warm and tired, your tummy is soft and heavy - rest, let your legs and tummy also rest and relax.
5. Your eyes are closed. Listen to what I’ll tell you: You and I now find ourselves in a sunny clearing, where grasshoppers quietly chirp, colorful butterflies fly and birds sing faintly. The breeze easily touches your face, arms and whole body. You are very warm and pleasant, you are resting, relaxing. (Quiet relaxation music sounds - “Sounds of Nature”).
6. I will count from ten to one, and when “one” sounds, you will open your eyes, and all your strength will return to you, your mood will be joyful and cheerful.

Relaxation classes and relaxation exercises can be carried out not only by a psychologist, but also by educators kindergarten, parents of children. To do this, in the collection I have presented several of the easiest-to-use exercises that can be used in any activity for rest and relaxation of preschool children.

Relaxation sessions

Relaxation "Balloon"

(Children sit on chairs)

Lean back in the chair, back straight and relaxed, hands folded on your chest so that your fingers meet. Take a deep breath of air through your nose, imagine that your stomach is a balloon. The deeper you inhale, the larger the ball.

Now exhale through your mouth so that the air flies out of the ball.
Take your time, repeat. Breathe and imagine how the ball fills with air and becomes bigger and bigger.

Exhale slowly through your mouth, as if air is coming out of a balloon.
Pause, count to five.

Inhale again and fill your lungs with air
Exhale, feel the air leaving through your lungs, throat, mouth.

Breathe and feel how you are filled with energy and good mood.

Relaxation “Flying high in the sky”

(Calm relaxing music sounds)

Lie down in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and listen to my voice. Breathe slowly and easily. Imagine that you are in a fragrant summer meadow. Above you are the warm summer sun and high blue sky. You feel absolutely calm and happy. High in the sky you see a bird soaring in the air. This is a large eagle with smooth and shiny feathers.
The bird soars freely in the sky, its wings spread to the sides. From time to time she slowly flaps her wings. You hear the sound of wings energetically cutting through the air.
Now let each of you imagine that he is a bird. Imagine that you are slowly floating, floating in the air, and your wings cutting through the air. Enjoy the freedom and wonderful feeling of floating in the air
And now, slowly flapping your wings, you are approaching the ground.
Now you are already on earth. Open your eyes. You feel well rested, you have a cheerful mood and a wonderful feeling of flight that will last throughout the day.

Relaxation “Unusual Rainbow”

(The exercise is performed lying down)

Lie down comfortably, relax. Breathe evenly and deeply. Close your eyes. Imagine that there is an unusual rainbow before your eyes.

The first color is blue. Blue can be soft and calming, like flowing water. Blue is pleasantly caressing in the heat, it refreshes you, like swimming in a lake. Feel this freshness.

The next one is yellow. Yellow brings us joy, it warms us like the sun, it reminds us of a soft fluffy chicken and we smile. If we are sad and lonely, it cheers us up.

Green color is the color of soft lawn, leaves and warm summer, if we are uneasy and insecure, green color will help us feel better.

Take these colors with you for the whole day, be calm like water, joyful like the sun, kind like summer.

Goal: tracking your emotional state and mood.

One, two, three, four, five - we start playing!

Now I will teach you how to color your mood. I'll tell you this secret. It turns out that every mood has its own color. Look - I have multi-colored cards. We will arrange them in a circle. The result is an eight-flowered flower – a flower of moods. Each petal is a different mood:

red – cheerful, active mood – you want to jump, run, play outdoor games;

yellow – cheerful mood – I want to enjoy everything;

green – sociable mood – I want to be friends with other children, talk and play with them;

blue – calm mood – I want to calmly play, listen interesting book, look out the window;

crimson – it’s hard for me to understand my mood, whether it’s not too good or too bad;

grey – boring mood – I don’t know what to do;

brown – angry mood – I’m angry, I’m offended;

black – sad mood – I’m sad, I’m upset.

Goal: positive attitude, development of a sense of unity.

I have a ball in my hands. I’ll now wrap the thread around my finger and pass the ball to my neighbor on the right and sing a song about how glad I am to see him - “I’m very glad that Dima is in the group...”

Whoever receives the ball wraps the thread around his finger and passes it to the next child sitting to his right, and together we (everyone who has the thread in their hands) sing a joyful song to him. And so on until the ball returns to me. Great!

The ball came back to me, it ran in a circle and connected us all. Our friendship became even stronger, and our mood improved.

Goal: training in self-regulation methods, relieving psycho-emotional stress.

Relaxation helps a happy mood.

Sit comfortably. Stretch out and relax. Close your eyes, pat yourself on the head and tell yourself: “I am very good” or “I am very good.”

Imagine a wonderful sunny morning. You are near a quiet, beautiful lake. You can barely hear your breathing. Inhale and exhale. The sun is shining brightly and you feel better and better. You feel the sun's rays warming you. You are absolutely calm. The sun is shining, the air is clean and transparent. You feel the warmth of the sun throughout your body. You are calm and still. You feel calm and happy. You enjoy the peace and warmth of the sun. You are resting... Inhale and exhale. Now open your eyes. They stretched, smiled and woke up. You are well rested, you are in a cheerful and cheerful mood, and pleasant feelings will not leave you throughout the day.

Goal: expressing feelings and emotions through joint artistic activities, uniting the children's team.

Now let's draw a wonderful land together.

Children are invited to draw together on a large sheet of paper, which is spread directly on the floor. The theme of the drawing is “Wonderful Land”. Details and small lines are first drawn on the sheet. Children complete unfinished images and “transform” them into anything they want. Joint drawing is accompanied by the sounds of nature.

Goal: withdrawal muscle tension.

Imagine that you are cheerful, mischievous kittens. Kittens walk, arch their backs, wag their tails (tension). But the kittens got tired...they started yawning, lay down on the mat and fall asleep. The kittens' bellies rise and fall evenly, they breathe calmly (relaxation).

Children sit on chairs. Muscle tension = walking and running with your feet elevated without touching the floor.

We're going for a walk. Get faster, don't fall behind!

We ran a little, our legs were tired.

We'll sit quietly and then we'll see.

The children are sitting. They smile - the whole body is relaxed, everything around is good. But suddenly we got angry - our eyebrows frowned, our hands rested on our sides with fists, our whole body tensed. And again everything is fine, we smile.

Children squat, then slowly rise (the fungus grows). Straightened up (tension). What a beautiful mushroom! Then the mushroom ages and slowly settles (children squat down relaxedly, lower their arms, bow their heads).

It’s cold outside, we huddled and froze (we sat down on the floor, pulled up and clasped our knees, lowered our heads, muscles were tense). The magic bell rings, it’s summer again, it’s hot, we’re on the beach (lying on our backs, all muscles relaxed).

We are taking big steps. We hit bumps. We can’t step off the bumps; we’ll get our feet wet in the puddles. We reached a sunny clearing, lay down, relaxed, and sunbathed. Then we got up and walked back (muscle tension again). We came home, were tired, sat down on the chairs and relaxed. Clap! Here we are again, children in a group, sitting beautifully on chairs.

Children sit on chairs, their toes are raised, their heels rest on the floor, their hands press hard on their knees. Then complete relaxation.

What kind of strange springs rest on the shoes?

We will press them with our feet, we will press them tighter and tighter!

We press tightly! There are no springs, we rest.

I am a bud (the children sat down on the floor, clasped their knees pulled up to them, lowered their heads, muscles tense). The warm sun is shining, I am growing (they rise slowly, smile, swing their arms in a relaxed manner). The sun has disappeared, it is dark, night has fallen, my petals close (initial position), and the sun rises again…. etc.

The butterfly flies slowly through the group, flapping its wings (tension). At the signal of the bell, the butterflies land on the flower (chair). The arms and wings are lowered, the head is lowered, the body is relaxed. The bell rings again, the butterflies fly, etc.

Children sit on chairs.

We are athletes no matter what, hold the barbell up, one - two! (voltage)

Our arms are tired, we lower the barbell,

Let's sit quietly and watch the athletes. (relaxation)

We are snowflakes. A blizzard sweeps in, we fly in different directions (while standing still, we sway forcefully from side to side with our arms raised - all our muscles are tense). The wind died down, and the snowflakes turned into a large snowdrift. The snowflakes froze and relaxed (the children sit on the floor as comfortably as possible, relaxing their muscles).

One child is a ball, the other inflates it. “Ball” - legs are bent, muscles are relaxed, head is lowered, arms are hanging. Another child inflates the ball - “Ssss...” The ball gradually straightens, arms to the sides, cheeks puffed out, looking up, muscles tense. Let's pull out the pump, the ball is deflated as before. Next, the children change places.

Imagine that you are playing in a sunny meadow. Suddenly a cold wind blew. You felt cold, you were frozen, you wrapped your arms around yourself, pressed your head to your hands - you were warming yourself (tension). Warm up and relax. But then the cold wind blew again...

While reading a poem, children spread their arms, muscles are tense, and their backs are straight. The parachutes dropped, we sat on the chairs and relaxed, arms down, head down.

Hands to the sides, we send the plane into flight.

Right wing forward, left wing forward,

The plane is taking off. The lights came on ahead,

We rose to the clouds.

Here is the forest, we will prepare a parachute here.

The parachutes have all opened,

We landed lightly.

Imagine that you are cubs and your mother bear is playing with you. She throws bumps at you. You catch them and squeeze them forcefully in your paws (tension). But the cubs are tired and drop their paws along the body - the paws are resting. And the mother bear again throws cones to the cubs...

We are clothes in a store on hangers - hangers. We hang beautifully, evenly (Shoulders turned, back straight, legs together, arms to the sides, muscles tense). So they noticed us and bought us. Carefully removed one sleeve (relaxed, lowered one arm), the second sleeve, carefully folded (Bend at the waist, arms hanging freely). They brought us home and hung us in the closet (Muscle tension again). Then they carefully removed it (relaxation). They put it on the baby. Clap! We are children in smart clothes.

The balls are folded (relaxed tilt). Let's inflate them slowly (children straighten up, arms up), they straighten up, fly (swing with raised arms, muscles tense), and then deflate through a small hole (slowly relax, lower arms, bend over). We sealed the hole and inflated the balloons again.

I am a blot, spreading across the floor, all my muscles relax. But then I begin to dry out, slowly the stain of paint decreases, I slowly pull up my arms and legs, and sit down (on the floor). And again I am me, standing next to my friends.

Let's rest. Hands on knees. What is this? The magical force clenched his hands into fists, tightly, even stronger... Let's try to overpower it, move our fingers, blow. This is how light my fingers have become.

On line 1 – muscle tension, arms above your head, stretch up. On line 2 - muscle relaxation, arms relaxed, hanging, head down.

There's an icicle hanging under our roof,

The sun will rise, the icicle will melt and fall.

(Muscle tension - figures, relaxation - puddles). Winter, night, ice figures in the yard. How beautiful, like crystal! Ding dong! (we touch the children). In the morning the sun warmed up, the figures slowly melted, the puddles spread... Again evening, again night, fabulous ice figures rose again. Ding dong! But the morning has come, the figures are slowly melting. There are puddles in the yard again. Clap! Everything has disappeared! We're kids in a band again.

For the first part of the poem, children “roll up” a snowball, then depict a snowman: hands on the belt, back straight, muscles tense, smile. The snowman has melted, the muscles are relaxed, the arms fell down, the head is lowered.

Come on, my friend, be brave, my friend, roll your snowball in the snow.

He will turn into a snowball and become a snowman.

His smile is so bright! Two eyes, a hat, a nose, a broom!

But the sun will be a little hot - alas! And there is no snowman!

The specks of dust dance merrily in the ray of the sun, at the signal of the bell they circle more and more slowly and sit on the floor. The back and shoulders are relaxed, the arms are lowered, the head is tilted down. The vacuum cleaner is working and collecting dust particles. Whoever the teacher touches slowly goes back to the chair.

Hands - horns are very hard. We make our way through the thickets. The toes are widely spread (the horns are branched).

Look, we are deer! The wind is rushing towards us!

The wind died down, the shoulders weakened, the hands were again on the knees,

Hands are not tense, relaxed.

Look, girls and boys, our fingers are resting.

They shook the bottle, unscrewed the cap (demonstration with gestures), and blew slowly and for a long time into the ring (inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth). Oh, how beautiful bubble! Show them how they take off. (The muscles tense, the arms are clasped in a circle at the top and stretched upward, the head is turned up, we look at the hands). Oh! The bubbles burst, only a puddle of soap remained (muscles relaxed).

We very quickly tense our muscles with the first lines of the poem: arms to the sides, cheeks puffed out, looking up, muscles tense. During the second part of the poem, the muscles relax, arms down, head down.

We quickly inflate the ball, it becomes big.

Suddenly the balloon burst, the air came out, and he became thin and thin.

Imagine yourself sunbathing in the sun. But then the sun went behind the cloud, it became cold - everyone huddled into a ball to keep warm (muscle tension, hold your breath). The sun came out from behind the clouds, it became hot - everyone relaxed (as they exhaled).

What beautiful flowers! (children stand with their arms raised, hands showing “tulip” = muscle tension). It hasn't rained for a long time. The flowers have withered. First, the heads dropped (the children lowered their arms, bowed their heads, relaxed their shoulders), then the leaves (lowered arms relaxed), then the entire stem bent to the ground (bending with relaxed arms). Suddenly it began to rain, the flowers began to slowly come to life (repeat the movements in reverse order).

Children lie on the floor, on their backs.

We sunbathe beautifully and raise our legs higher.

We hold, we hold, we strain,

Tanned, lower it, legs are not tense and relaxed.

During the first part of the poem, all muscles are tensed, the children stand on one leg with their arms outstretched to the sides, and during the second part there is muscle relaxation.

You need to play sports, train every day,

Hands to the sides, don’t fall, it’s very difficult to stand like that,

Don't put your foot on the floor!

We all we strain our muscles,

Now let's relax them.

We lower our hands down. Come on, smile quickly!

The children are lying on the carpet. The teacher says: “Imagine a warm summer evening. You lie on the grass and look at the clouds floating in the sky - such white, large, fluffy clouds in the blue sky. Everything around is quiet and calm, you feel warm and comfortable. You begin to slowly and smoothly rise into the air, higher and higher, towards the very clouds. Your arms are light, light, your legs are light, your whole body becomes light, like a cloud. Here you are swimming up to the largest and fluffiest, most beautiful cloud in the sky. Closer and closer. And now you are already lying on this cloud, you feel how it gently hugs you, this fluffy and tender cloud... You feel good and pleasant. You are relaxed and calm. But then a cloud dropped you into the clearing. Smile at your cloud. Stretch and open your eyes. You had a good rest on the cloud. And now we are back in kindergarten again.

Target: creating and maintaining a positive attitude.

We are very sorry to part,

But the time has come to say goodbye.

So that we don't lose heart,

I need to take a dry shower.

Children are asked to go through a “dry shower”.

Feel how the colorful streams touch your face and hands. All sorrows, resentments, boredom and sadness are left behind. And you are charged with vigor, activity, joy. The charge of good mood acquired in a wonderful land will remain with you for a long time.

“NON-TRADITIONAL FORM OF HEALTH CARE FOR PRESCHOOL CHILDREN -

RELAXATION"

1. Explanatory note

4. Principles of health technology

6. Relaxation technique for preschool children

7. Expected results

Along with yoga gymnastics, it is also possible to use such therapeutic method like relaxation. Relaxation is one of the ways to overcome internal tension, based on more or less conscious muscle relaxation.

Even preschoolers living in the modern world experience increased mental and physical exercise: constant rush, anxiety, a flow of negative information from the television screen, frequent infectious diseases, fatigue, which subsequently leads to overexertion. By teaching children relaxation methods, we help them relieve internal muscle tension, calm down, thereby bringing the nervous system and psyche into a normal state of rest. Children's ability to manage their feelings and emotions is another step towards developing their self-confidence.

The important thing in performing relaxation exercises is that each action should bring pleasant sensations and pleasure and promote good health. If an adult notices that a child experiences tension, fear, or increased agitation after performing exercises, then it is necessary to find out the reason and, if necessary, stop the exercises.

The reasons for this behavior can be different: misunderstood and, therefore, incorrectly performed exercises; inadequacy of the child’s psyche, which does not allow him to engage in relaxation in a group.

When creating relaxation complexes, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of children's perception. Due to the fact that preschoolers have a well-developed imagination and visual-figurative thinking prevails, it is desirable that the names of the exercises and their content be figurative. It is important to consider age characteristics children. It will be much easier for children five to six years old to relax and enjoy the exercises they perform if the exercise is done in a playful way. It is advisable to use calm music when performing relaxation. It will help children distract from extraneous thoughts and calm down. If one melody constantly accompanies the same exercise, then the body itself tunes in to the perception, and after several workouts, relaxation occurs at the first sounds of music.

The purpose of relaxation is to help relieve internal muscle tension in children and bring the nervous system and psyche of preschoolers to a normal state of rest.

The use of yoga exercises and relaxation training in correctional pedagogical work with children helps to solve the following problems:

Strengthening physical health and creating beautiful posture;

Formation of positive emotions and feelings.

PRINCIPLES OF HEALTH TECHNOLOGY

The main provisions that determine the content, organizational forms and methods of the educational process in accordance with the general goals of health-saving technologies are general methodological principles.

The general methodological principles include:

1. Consciousness – aims to develop understanding, sustainable interest, and meaningful attitude in a preschooler; Realizing the health benefits, the child learns to independently and creatively solve cognitive problems.

2. Activity – involves a high degree of initiative and creativity.

3. Systematicity and consistency - implies the continuity of the process.

4. “Do no harm! »

5. Gradualism.

6. Accessibility and individualization - takes into account the individual characteristics of children.

7. Cyclicity – suggests a repeating sequence.

8. Health-improving orientation– aims to improve health in the process of education and training.

In moments of failure and trouble, it is necessary to teach children to tune in to positive illusions and beautiful fantasies. They will balance the severity of children's adversities, teach them to cope with small and large children's troubles. To do this, several times a day you need to linger for a while and think about pleasant things. Let the kindest, most pleasant scenes appear in the children’s imagination, be it reality or fantasy (trainings “Toy Store”, “The Peace of the Summer Forest”, “In a Flowering Meadow”, etc.).

Relaxation exercises are performed in a quiet, calm environment.

It is better to relax with your eyes closed.

Depending on the conditions for using these exercises, various poses are used: rest pose, diamond pose, etc.

While doing relaxation exercises, teach children to recognize feelings of tension and relaxation.

Don't rush to finish relaxation.

Children can lie down if they want.

You need to get out of this state slowly, calmly: first stretch, as if waking up from sleep, then open your eyes and slowly sit down.

When using exercises to relax individual parts of the body, take into account previous view activities of children (for example, if there was drawing or appliqué, then it is advisable to perform exercises to relax the muscles of the arms, back, neck).

Types of relaxation are very diverse: from simple to very complex and time-consuming.

Creating an atmosphere of love and cheerfulness in the family and kindergarten group will be greatly facilitated by parents’ compliance with the following rules:

Rule 1. Teach your children to greet the coming day only with a smile and good thoughts, because a morning smile charges you with cheerfulness and good mood all day. A smile can save a child from many troubles, lend a helping hand, and the more kindly children learn to treat each other and the world, the more confident they will feel in life. Several times a day, invite the children to smile at each other, say: “I LOVE MYSELF, I LOVE FRIENDS, I LOVE EVERYONE, I LOVE THE WORLD! “This is especially useful when a conflict is brewing or has already occurred among children in the group.

Rule 2. Try to maintain an atmosphere of kindness, love and joy throughout the day.

Rule 3. Children’s bad actions should be discussed with them, help them comprehend them and draw a conclusion, and then forget about them. Children should always feel loved, good, and talented, although their actions may sometimes be unsatisfactory. Educators and parents should allow children to make mistakes sometimes without making a tragedy out of it.

Rule 4. When recalling the past day or a longer period of time with your children, spend Special attention good luck and success.

Rule 5. Remember that to maintain positive attitude For children, their fantasies, dreams and daydreams are no less important than the positive factors in their lives.

Beautiful morning, the sun is shining. Now it starts to get hot, and the snow woman begins to melt. Next, the children depict how the snow woman melts. First the head melts, then one hand, then the other. Gradually, little by little, the torso begins to melt.

The snow woman turns into a puddle that spreads across the ground.

Children imagine that they are little birds. They fly through the fragrant summer forest, inhale its aromas and admire its beauty.

So they sat down on a beautiful wildflower and inhaled its light aroma, and now they flew to the tallest linden tree, sat on its top and felt the sweet smell of a flowering tree. But a warm summer breeze blew, and the birds, along with its gust, rushed to the babbling forest stream.

Sitting on the edge of the stream, they cleaned their feathers with their beaks, drank clean, cool water, splashed around and rose up again. Now let’s land in the coziest nest in a forest clearing.

Consultation for parents of preschool children on the topic:

"Relaxation for children of middle preschool age"

Prepared

What is "relaxation"?

Relaxation(from Latin relaxation - weakening, relaxation) - deep muscle relaxation, accompanied by the release of mental tension. Relaxation can be either involuntary or voluntary, achieved as a result of the use of special psychophysiological techniques.

What does relaxation contribute to in preschool children?

Relaxation is the best way to relieve tension (nervous, physical and mental), as well as relaxation, which allows you to eliminate the irritation factor. Relaxation is very useful for children.

After execution special exercises the child becomes calm and balanced. He becomes more aware of his feelings. Relaxation exercises for children play a big role.

Children begin to control their own actions and emotions, and also master their feelings. Relaxation allows the little person to concentrate and relieve excitement.

Who can perform relaxation?

Muscle relaxation exercises are carried out by psychologists working with children. Such activities are an element of a wellness course. But at the same time, simple playful relaxation for children can be used by educators or parents.

Relaxation in this case is caused by special gaming techniques, each of which, as a rule, has a figurative name (this can captivate children). Kids perform relaxation exercises, not only copying the movements of the teacher. Children are reincarnated and enter into the image given to them. New games can interest a child, which allows him to relax well. The effect of the exercise is immediately noticeable by the calm facial expression, rhythmic and even breathing, etc.

Is it possible to accompany the relaxation process with music?

Currently, the number of children with various forms of psycho-emotional disorders has increased significantly. The reason for this is the limitation of the social circle of preschoolers and their concentration on computers and televisions.

Music provides invaluable assistance in raising a child and improving his mental health. Even ancient healers noted its ability to cure a person from various ailments.

For example, the sounds of a violin lift your spirits, a flute can help with a cough, and viola melodies eliminate neuroses. Music has a truly fantastic ability to regulate the psycho-emotional state of a child.

It helps to overcome feelings of discomfort, expressed by fear, uncertainty, confusion and apprehension. The music of nature also contributes to this. Relaxation is achieved by listening to the rustling of leaves and birdsong, the sound of rain and the babbling of a stream.

These sounds relieve the baby of worries and fears. They give him confidence and good mood. Experts recommend combining calm melodies and sounds of nature.

Relaxation is most effective in this case.

RELAXATION FOR SECONDARY GROUP CHILDREN

Exercises to relax facial muscles:

"Mouth shut"

Purse your lips so that they are not visible at all. Close your mouth tightly, squeezing your lips very, very tightly. Then relax them:

I have my own secret, I won’t tell it to you, no (purse lips).

Oh, how difficult it is to resist saying nothing (4–5 s).

I will still relax my lips and leave the secret to myself.

“The evil one has calmed down”

Tighten your jaw, stretching your lips and exposing your teeth. Growl as much as you can. Then take a few deep breaths, stretch, smile and, opening your mouth wide, yawn: - And when I get really angry, I tense up, but I hold on.

I squeeze my jaw tightly and scare everyone with a growl (growl).

So that the anger flies away and the whole body relaxes,

You need to take a deep breath, stretch, smile,

Maybe even yawn (open your mouth wide and yawn).

Exercises to relax the neck muscles:
