Poems in the preschool educational institution, a holiday calendar for kindergarten. Project "calendar of interesting dates" in kindergarten
Educators often have to think about what else interesting and new they can come up with to please the kids.Creatively working teachers of one of the capital's kindergartens found a way out by looking at our Calendar of significant events and memorable dates. After all, in addition to well-known holidays, there are a lot of interesting dates that can become an occasion for educational leisure activities and joint projects for adults and preschoolers.
About the teaching staff of the Child Development Center

From the first day of opening, it has been an experimental platform for the environmental education of preschoolers under the program of N.A. Ryzhova "Our home is nature".

In September 2008, the project "Calendar of interesting dates" began in our institution. The project was based on the heading "Calendar of Significant Events and Memorable Dates" of the magazine "Reference Book of the Senior Educator of a Preschool Institution" (starting with No. 2 for 2007) with a selection of international and Russian holidays, including a holiday for knowledge in preschool educational institutions. It turned out that in the world every day there are many reasons to create a joyful, festive mood. All together - pupils, parents, teachers - from a large number of events they chose those that seemed to them the most interesting.
To meet modern requirements for the DOE team is not only to keep up with the times, but also to work ahead of schedule, see the future, constantly update, be the initiators of the new, interesting. It is in this that the staff of the State Educational Institution "Child Development Center - Kindergarten No. 2333" sees its main task.
One of the distinguishing features of our institution is the search for and use of innovative approaches to work, including:
- uniting the efforts of the entire team in order to develop new effective educational technologies;
- updating the content of education, an integrated approach to conducting classes;
- the formation in preschoolers of the desire and ability to independently search, collect information;
- support for innovative activity of teachers;
- active in the pedagogical process.
Communication with parents is the key to the success of the preschool educational institution
Communication with parents, in our opinion, is especially important. , to convince them, to captivate with interesting innovations - the key to the successful operation of the preschool educational institution.
The team itself should also be adjusted accordingly, adhering to the rule: do nothing "for show", because any work should bring a sense of satisfaction and joy. Only thanks to such a position of the team and parents do we manage to come up with and implement something new in our work with pupils.
In our preschool educational institution, traditional events are also held annually: these are sports competitions jointly with parents in each group of the kindergarten, monthly Game Days, leisure activities dedicated to state and folk holidays, and much more. Their main purpose is to create a positive emotional mood in preschoolers, a sense of joy and, ultimately, a beneficial effect on the personality of the child.
This fact, as well as the intense rhythm of the life of modern preschoolers and the need for active recreation, contributed to the fact that the creative group of teachers and parents decided to hold small holidays and entertainment for children on a regular basis.

Thus, along with the traditional holidays - state and folk - our calendar includes the following:
- World Beauty Day (September);
- World Maritime Day (September);

Organization of the preparation of the holiday
Each holiday is organized together with parents and kids. All suggestions and wishes are accepted, after which an action plan is developed. At the same time, one must adhere to the main principle - respect for a sense of proportion. That is, the event should organically fit into the educational process and in sensitive moments, be interesting for both pupils and adults, and the prepared scenarios should be diverse, easily implemented and meet the goals of the project.
In order for the children to be joyful and cheerful from the very morning, the holiday should begin with a bright performance at the entrance to the kindergarten and the group.
The hallmark of each celebration was a colorful poster-announcement in the hall on the first floor at the entrance to the institution. A colored sheet of A4 format contains the name of the holiday, the date of its holding, a picture (a photo of our children, an illustration from the drawing sites of the Internet or an application from magazines) and brief information about the event being celebrated, which we also found in the magazine "Reference book of the senior preschool teacher" .
Holiday forms
Design in groups, paraphernalia, creative tasks and presentation of information based on the results of the search activities of the project participants are individual for each holiday. Great importance is attached to how modern and rich the professional and creative level of the teaching staff is in the life of the kindergarten.
Holidays can take a variety of forms.
For example, on World Beauty Day, a demonstration of elegant clothes, a fashion show and a children's photo session were arranged.
On World Maritime Day, an exhibition of marine painters was organized in the kindergarten, information about the Russian seas was searched for and compiled, and a photo vernissage "I visited the seas" was organized.
World Greetings Day was marked by morning greetings with warm wishes for everyone on the radio, the decoration of the hall at the entrance to the kindergarten with multi-colored colored cardboard balloons with greetings used in our country. The guys conducted a search activity "How different animals greet each other" and came up with greetings for phenomena of animate and inanimate nature.
For World Children's Television Day, children together with their parents prepared videos "Me and my family", "My favorite band".
On the International Hug Day, the white bear cub Elka came to visit the children with interesting games, warm hugs with each child and delicious ice cubes.
On International Monument Day, a competition was held for the most "Original Monument".
On November 12, as part of the "Calendar of Interesting Dates" project, we celebrated " Titmouse Day". This holiday has been known in Russia for a long time. On this day, people fix feeders on trees, scatter seeds and grains, hang pieces of bacon outside the window. The people said: "The titmouse bird is not great, but even then it knows its own holiday." We also decided to celebrate this wonderful day.The parents were given homework in advance - to make feeders together with the children.
The fantasies of parents and children pleasantly surprised us, which was not there: wooden palaces, colored box houses, plastic baskets, cones in sugar glaze, hangers strung with pieces of cheese and lard.
Teachers in groups told the children about this holiday, and during the walk we all went out together to hang our wonderful crafts. Each child himself chose a place for his feeder, poured grains, bread crumbs, seeds there. And when birds began to flock to the feeders, children's joy and delight knew no bounds. It's also nice that children still bring treats for the birds and take care of them.
Immediately after the holiday, the wall newspaper "Eco-news" was published. In it, we placed photographs of children, expressed gratitude to parents and educators for their help in holding this interesting and necessary celebration.
We celebrate November 30th. Unfortunately, in our country it is not officially celebrated. But we decided that this is a very kind, home holiday, which must be celebrated. Moreover, in many families there is some kind of animal.
The children were given the task in advance, together with their parents, to prepare a short story about their pet and bring a photo of it.
The idea was received with enthusiasm. The children were happy to talk about their pets: what are their names, what do they like to play, what do they eat, etc. It turned out that many families have several types of pets, and they coexist very peacefully. Reading children's stories about their pets, we were once again convinced that by instilling love for our smaller brothers from early childhood, we cultivate such qualities as kindness, empathy, and respect for all living things. After all, we ourselves are a particle of all life that inhabits our wonderful planet called Earth.
With great interest, the children received information about the ancient holiday Day of Naum the Literate, celebrated on December 14th. The educators told them about the folk rituals that existed in Rus', that in ancient times, it was from that day that children were sent to study. They also learned where and how they studied then, what teachers were like. The children got acquainted with proverbs and sayings dedicated to the mind: “Prophet Naum - will guide the mind”, “Learning to learn is always useful”, “Saint Naum sharpens the mind”, etc.
On the Day of Nahum the Literate, the institution held a literacy Olympiad among children aged 5-6 and 6-7 years in a solemn atmosphere. Joint event with parents in kindergarten was organized with all the attributes of a real Olympiad: the participants were offered tasks not only to apply the acquired knowledge, but also to develop the child in kindergarten and his horizons, imagination, ingenuity, quick wits and resourcefulness.
Our children really liked the exciting tasks of the intellectual direction. According to the results of the Olympiad, the winners received the honorary title of Naum-literate and were awarded with certificates and prizes.
On the Week of Letters and Mail, a joint excursion was organized for older preschoolers and their parents to the post office, where the children visited different departments, watching the dispatch of letters and parcels, sorting newspapers and magazines, and got acquainted with the work of the postman. The preschoolers had an amazing opportunity to try on some attributes of the postman's clothes, which caused them strong emotions.
And most importantly, on this day, our kindergarten sent five parcels with children's things, toys and books to the addresses of families living in Russia who were in a difficult life situation.
All week, children and adults wrote each other letters, postcards, sent parcels, dropping them into a mailbox on the first floor of the kindergarten. Children-postmen sorted the correspondence and delivered it to the addressees.
On the radio, it was announced the opening of a branch of the editorial office of the Elka magazine in our preschool educational institution. Children alone or together with their parents and teachers wrote letters, drew for their beloved teddy bear and his friends. A few days later, Elka sent a letter in response, in which he promised to come to visit us for the "Hug Day", and he fulfilled his promise.
Goals of the project "Calendar of interesting dates"
We involve our pupils in the implementation of the planned plan for the holidays, support the creative activity of children, create conditions that allow them to independently determine the content of the upcoming activities. The game form of the project implementation introduces the children to various types of creative activity, contributes to the formation of various competencies, self-confidence, a positive attitude towards the world around them, the development of patriotic feelings, moral qualities of the individual.
Our project is being successfully implemented, everyone liked it, and most importantly, it has the prospect of further development. This academic year, we are getting acquainted with the holidays that have already been officially announced - this is the goal of our annual project. In the next academic year, we will have our own "Center Holiday Calendar" - celebrations that we will come up with for ourselves - this is a huge field for creativity for both children and adults.
Project "Calendar of interesting dates":
- expands children's ideas about international and all-Russian holidays;
- develops the emotional sphere, tolerance, a sense of belonging to national celebrations;
- attracts children to active participation in the preparation and holding of the holiday;
- creates an atmosphere of joy and fun.

Such a calendar can be made colorful, in the form of an album or in the form of a presentation. Each kindergarten has its own traditions - these are special, "own" holidays and, of course, common for everyone. In the calendar for each month, you can insert photos from the holidays. Such a calendar can be used every year, replacing photos and (sometimes) dates of holidays that are not among them, for example, Easter.

Title: Poems in preschool. Holiday calendar for kindergarten.
Nomination: Kindergarten, Holidays, entertainment, scenarios, others
Position: music director of the highest category
Place of employment: MKDOU "Kindergarten of the village of Shunga"
Location: Kostroma region, Kostroma district, Shunga village
In every public institution there is a mandatory series of holidays celebrated from year to year. In kindergarten, children's holidays are also celebrated. Only at school is, for example, a light; in college or university - a party, but in kindergarten what? - that's right - mornings.
And so, what do the children say?
New Year. Perhaps the most popular holiday in kindergarten. The Christmas tree is dressing up, Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden come to visit, gifts are given. A holiday for all ages!
At the end of the New Year, the kids go on vacation just like adults in Russia.
Further, a little less significant, February 23rd and March 8th are celebrated. These holidays are on the list of state holidays and, of course, we will be happy to congratulate little boys and girls, adult dads and moms.
in May, children's celebrations are not celebrated very often. But it is important that May 9 is not an empty phrase for children. It reflects a significant period of the annals of the country, which must be taught from an early age. You can organize a thematic day where educators will talk about the significance of Victory Day, or make an event for veterans, invite them to kindergarten.
It would seem that here you can complete the holidays in kindergarten. But no! There are many holidays that we do not know about. Almost every day, in Russia and in the world, something is celebrated. Holidays worth celebrating depend on caregivers and parents. The following are the holidays that can be distinguished in kindergarten.
February 8th - Science Day. Children are still far from such a concept, but the holiday can be used to instill a craving for knowledge.
. March 21st is Poetry Day. A great reason to start learning poetry is the most common number at the holiday.
. March 27th is theater day. Holidays stand side by side, therefore, it is easy to combine them into one. As a result, performance and poetry go in art.
. April 1st is the day of laughter. The best occasion for drawings and contests.
. April 2nd is Children's Book Day. We instill in our children the love of reading.
. In the summer, everyone scatters for the holidays, and for those who stayed in the summer group - June 1st - Children's Day. Paths in kindergarten can be painted with crayons and a competition for the best drawing can be organized.
. June 5th - Environment Day. Children need to be taught how to protect nature.
. After the summer holidays, we can celebrate the holiday of the kindergarten - September 27th - the day of the educator. The Parents' Committee will be able to organize gifts for educators, and the pupils will be able to prepare a short performance.
. October 1st - Music Day. It's time for a musical holiday, with fun songs and dances.
. October 5th - teacher's day. If there is a teacher in the institution (of English, music, physical education, drawing, etc.), it would be appropriate to arrange a holiday for him as well. The best gift is the achievements of children in his profile.
And, of course, do not forget about the birthday. Everyone wants a holiday on their birthday, you can do it "according to the seasons": autumn birthdays, winter, spring and summer.
As in any public institution, various holidays are also celebrated in kindergarten. Only if at school it is a light, at the institute it is a party, they are called matinees. What do our children celebrate?
Firstly, New Year. This is perhaps the largest and most famous holiday in kindergarten. The Christmas tree is dressed up, Santa Claus comes, gifts are given. A holiday for everyone and for everyone, a sea of pleasure, laughter and entertainment. After the New Year, children go on vacations invented by the state on an equal basis with everyone else.
Further, slightly less significant February 23 and March 8. These holidays in kindergarten can be celebrated purely symbolically, simply because they are on the list of public holidays, and despite their name, these days it is customary to congratulate men (boys) and women (girls), respectively.
May holidays in kindergarten are rarely celebrated, because it is not entirely clear who and what to congratulate. Indeed, it is very important that Victory Day was not an empty phrase for the guys. This holiday reflects an important stage in the history of our country, which can be taught from a young age. You can arrange a theme day in kindergarten, where the teacher will talk about the significance of this holiday, or organize an event for veterans, if any, among the grandparents of the pupils.
It would seem that on this note you can finish with the holidays in kindergarten. But no! There are so many holidays that few people know about. Almost every day in our country, and in the world, something is celebrated, and it does not have to be a red day of the calendar. What holidays should be celebrated especially in kindergarten (organize matinees, give gifts) depends directly on the teacher and parents. Below are the holidays that can be made a red day on the calendar specifically for your kindergarten.
February 8 is the day of Russian science. Little pupils are still far from this concept, but the holiday can be fully used to instill in children a craving for knowledge already in kindergarten.
March 21 is World Poetry Day. Where else, if not in kindergarten, do children begin to learn poetry by heart? This is the most common performance at any holiday.
March 27 is International Theater Day. Since these two holidays are side by side, they can be combined into one matinee in kindergarten. Ultimately, staging and poetry go hand in hand in art.
April 1 is International Laughter Day. Or, as it is also called, April Fool's Day. The best holiday for all kinds of drawings, contests and puzzles. And literally the next day, April 2, you can celebrate International Children's Book Day. There is no better holiday to instill a love of reading in kindergarten children. Especially in our time, when the TV and computer cover the book.
In the summer, usually everyone goes on vacation, but if suddenly someone stayed in the summer group, then June 1 is the most children's holiday! All paths in kindergarten can be decorated with crayons and a competition for the best drawing can be arranged.
It makes sense to celebrate the International Environment Day, which falls on June 5th. Now, when the environment is getting worse every year, it is simply necessary to teach children to take care and protect our nature. And it’s better to start right from the preschool, kindergarten.
Having rested after the summer holidays, groups can inspire to celebrate the professional holiday of the kindergarten - the day of the educator and preschool worker, which falls on September 27th. On this day, the parent committee can organize gifts for all those who work with their children from morning to evening five days a week, and pupils can prepare a short speech of gratitude to their mentors.
October 1 is International Music Day. If the kindergarten has a musical bias, then it's time to arrange a holiday, reinforcing it with cheerful songs, which will be very useful on this day.
October 5th is known as Teacher's Day. If there is a teacher in the kindergarten (music, drawing, physical education, English, etc.), then it would be very appropriate to arrange a holiday for him, like an educational one. The best gift for a teacher will be the achievements of the children in his profile.
And of course, do not forget about the birthdays of the children and kindergarten teachers. Perhaps not everyone wants a theatrical matinee, but everyone definitely wants a holiday on their birthday!
Imagine - every day in Russia another holiday, event, date is celebrated, and as a rule, more than one. Personal experience tells us that it is incredibly difficult to remember all the holidays of the year, but common sense whispers that it is not necessary. And indeed, why remember church holidays, state, professional, and it’s still worth adding personal dates to them, such as the birthdays of relatives and a couple of dozen friends, wedding anniversaries, and others. Therefore, the calendar created by SuperTosty for every day will solve the problem of remembering dates and events for you, remind you of Orthodox holidays, holidays in Russia, celebrated professional dates and other equally significant holidays. With personal events, what can you do, you will have to deal with them yourself, fortunately, it is also enough to write them down in a notebook, or rather a mobile phone, where you can turn on a reminder - the twenty-first century is in the yard after all!
Our calendar reflects all the holidays of winter, spring, summer and autumn. For each holiday, we have selected congratulations, toasts, greeting cards and SMS. Now not a single holiday of the year will pass you by, you will be aware of the events in Russia, its dates, you will be able to congratulate colleagues and friends on their working and professional holidays in time. Indeed, all year round, every day hundreds of events are celebrated, dates dedicated to teachers, doctors, and other professions, church holidays, city days, military glory and other equally interesting holidays.
