One cloud looks like a fluffy bunny, the other looks like a big ball of white cotton wool, here is a very small cloud that looks like a white kitten. The carpet slowly falls to the ground. You are in a blooming garden.

There are many flowers around, they nod to you with their cooking. You are walking along the garden path. You stepped out onto the lawn. Children play ball. The ball rolls towards your feet. You pick up the ball, toss it high, and the ball goes up. But what is it? You are flying too. Fly yourself. No flying carpet. You spread your arms. You soar like a bird. Here is a familiar lake, seagulls greet you, flap their wings. The fisherman sits in the boat. He looks at you, waves his hand to you. You fly further.

Listen to him purr. Stroke it gently with your right hand. Now stroke it with your left hand. Stretch, open your eyes. Take the kitten in your hands. Affectionately. Sit down, make the kitten sit next to you. Pat him on the head.

Relaxation games as a way to relieve psycho-emotional stress in young children.

Relaxation exercises with children.

Modern preschoolers are sometimes loaded no less than adults. Visiting a kindergarten, various clubs and sports sections, they get a lot of information, get tired physically and emotionally. After all, you need to be in time everywhere!

Such loads adversely affect the health of children. Therefore, it is so important to use relaxation exercises when working with preschoolers.

An active lifestyle, frequent stress in the family and at work often lead to overstrain, bad mood, and as a result, to depression. You need to learn how to relax and use the means of relaxation and meditation to combat "overload". But what to do if a very small child is overstressed, overexcited and it is difficult to calm down after active games and communication? How to defeat children's hyperexcitability?

For some reason, it is generally accepted that relaxation and meditation methods are shown only to adults. In fact, this is not entirely true. Yes, frankly, it is difficult to explain to a three-year-old child what meditation is. Therefore, the relaxation of children preschool age requires a special look and approach. The main thing is to use it correctly and skillfully.

The nervous system of a preschool child is far from perfect. It is difficult for children to control the processes of excitation and inhibition of the nervous system. This explains restless sleep or problems with falling asleep after active games. First of all, this applies to active children. But, despite this, there are many ways by which you can calm the "loosened" child.

For the formation of emotional stability of the child, it is important to teach him to control his body. In the process of development, education and training, children receive a huge amount of information that they need to learn. Active mental activity and accompanying emotional experiences create excessive excitation in the nervous system, which, accumulating, leads to tension in the muscles of the body. The ability to relax allows you to eliminate anxiety, agitation, stiffness, restores strength, increases energy.

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

Relaxation exercises with focus on breathing:

"Blow out the candle."

Inhale deeply, drawing as much air into the lungs as possible. Then, stretching out your lips with a tube, exhale slowly, as if blowing on a candle, while pronouncing the sound “u” for a long time.

« Lazy cat."

Raise your hands up, then stretch forward, stretch like a cat. Feel how the body stretches. Then sharply lower your hands down, pronouncing the sound “a”.

Facial muscle relaxation exercises:

"Naughty cheeks".

Take in air by puffing out your cheeks. Hold your breath, slowly exhale the air, as if blowing out a candle. Relax your cheeks. Then close your lips with a tube, inhale the air, drawing it in. The cheeks are retracted. Then relax your cheeks and lips.

"Locked mouth".

Purse your lips so that they are not visible at all. Close your mouth with a “lock”, tightly squeezing your lips. Then relax them:

I have a secret, I won't tell you, no (purse your lips).

Oh, how hard it is to resist without saying anything (4–5 s).

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

"Evil has calmed down."

Tighten your jaw, stretching your lips and exposing your teeth. Roar with all your might. Then take a few deep breaths, stretch, smile and, opening your mouth wide, yawn:

And when I get very angry, I tense up, but I hold on.

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

For anger to fly away and the whole body to relax,

Take a deep breath, stretch, smile,

Maybe even yawn (open mouth wide, yawn).

Neck relaxation exercises:

"Curious Barabara".

Starting position: standing, feet shoulder-width apart, arms down, head straight. Turn your head as far to the left as possible, then to the right. Inhale-exhale. The movement is repeated 2 times in each direction. Then return to the starting position, relax the muscles:

Curious Varvara looks to the left, looks to the right.

And then again forward - here a little rest.

Raise your head up, look at the ceiling as long as possible. Then return to the starting position, relax the muscles:

And Varvara looks up the longest and farthest!

Comes back - relaxation is nice!

Slowly lower your head down, press your chin to your chest. Then return to the starting position, relax the muscles:

And now let's look down - the muscles of the neck have tensed!

Coming back - relaxing is nice!

Muscle relaxation exercises:

"Lemon".

Lower your hands down and imagine that there is a lemon in your right hand, from which you need to squeeze the juice. Slowly clench your right hand as tightly as possible into a fist. Feel how tense your right hand is. Then throw the "lemon" and relax your hand:

I will take a lemon in my hand.

I feel like it's round.

I squeeze it a little -

I squeeze lemon juice.

All right, juice is ready.

I throw a lemon, relax my hand.

Perform the same exercise with your left hand.

“Pair” (alternate movement with tension and relaxation of the hands).

Standing opposite each other and touching the partner's forward palms, straighten your right arm with tension, thereby bending the partner's left arm at the elbow. At the same time, the left hand bends at the elbow, and the partner straightens.

"Vibration".

What a wonderful day today!

We will drive away boredom and laziness.

They shook their hands.

Here we are healthy and strong.

Leg muscle relaxation exercises:

"Deck".

Imagine yourself on a ship. Shakes. In order not to fall, you need to spread your legs wider and press them to the floor. Clasp your hands behind your back. The deck rocked - transfer the body weight to the right leg, press it to the floor (the right leg is tense, the left is relaxed, slightly bent at the knee, the toe touches the floor). Straighten up. Relax your leg. It swung in the other direction - to press the left leg to the floor. Straighten up! Inhale-exhale!

It began to rock the deck! Press your foot to the deck!

We press the leg tighter, and relax the other.

"Horses".

Our legs wobbled

We will run along the path.

But be careful

Don't forget what to do!

"Elephant".

Put your feet firmly, then imagine yourself as an elephant. Slowly transfer the body weight to one leg, and raise the other high and lower it to the floor with a “roar”. Move around the room, alternately raising each leg and lowering it with a kick of the foot on the floor. Breathe out "Wow!"

Relaxation exercises for the whole body:

"Snow Woman"

Children imagine that each of them is a snowman. Huge, beautiful, which was fashioned from the snow. She has a head, a torso, two arms sticking out to the sides, and she stands on strong legs. Beautiful morning, the sun is shining. Here it begins to bake, and the snowman begins to melt. Next, the children depict how the snowman melts. First the head melts, then one hand, then the other. Gradually, little by little, the body begins to melt. The snowman turns into a puddle that spreads on the ground.

"Birds".

Children imagine that they are small birds. They fly through the fragrant summer forest, inhale its aromas and admire its beauty. So they sat down on a beautiful wild flower and breathed in its light aroma, and now they flew to the highest linden, sat on its crown and felt the sweet smell of a flowering tree. But a warm summer breeze blew, and the birds, along with its impulse, rushed to the murmuring forest stream. Sitting on the edge of the stream, they cleaned their feathers with their beaks, drank clean, cool water, splashed and again rose up. And now we will land in the most comfortable nest in a forest clearing.

"Bell".

Children lie on their backs. They close their eyes and relax to the sound of the lullaby “Fluffy Clouds”. “Awakening” takes place to the sound of a bell.

"Summer day".

Children lie on their backs, relaxing all the muscles and closing their eyes. Relaxation to the sound of calm music:

I'm lying in the sun,

But I don't look at the sun.

We close our eyes, our eyes rest.

The sun caresses our faces

May we have a good dream.

Suddenly we hear: boom-boom-boom!

Thunder came out for a walk.

Thunder rumbles like a drum.

"Slow motion".

Children sit closer to the edge of the chair, lean against the back, put their hands freely on their knees, legs slightly apart, close their eyes and sit quietly for a while, listening to slow, quiet music:

Everyone can dance, jump, run, draw.

But not everyone knows how to relax, to rest.

We have a game like this - very easy, simple.

The movement slows down, tension disappears.

And it becomes clear - relaxation is pleasant!

"Silence".

Hush, hush, hush!

You can't talk!

We are tired - we need to sleep - we will lie down quietly on the bed,

And we will sleep quietly.

Children really like doing such exercises, because they have an element of the game. They quickly learn this difficult ability to relax.

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

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

Such systematic work allows the child's body to relieve excess stress and restore balance, thereby maintaining health.

Summer camps, tourist gatherings for children, creative meetings, seminars and team building for adults begin with sports and entertainment events that are aimed at getting to know and liberating the participants. For younger children, these are, most often, games in a circle, undertakings with songs or rhymes, for teenagers and adults - more diverse games, the purpose of which is not so much the direct pronunciation of names, but the rapprochement and rallying of the formed team.

Suggested dating games for kids and adults funny and unusual, you need to choose them in accordance with the place and age of the participants. By the way, many of them will perfectly fit into the program of festive events, where an unfamiliar company gathered.

1. Game for acquaintance "Kaleidoscope of names".

This game as a tool for acquaintance can be used not only at children's holidays, but also during the start of work of children's associations, teams, detachments in camps, teams at seminars.

The facilitator says:

“To find out the names, I will name the letters.

Whose name begins with this letter,

He gets up and introduces himself

The letter "A" starts!

Stand up those whose names begin with "A":

Thank you! Continues the letter "B"!

Those whose names begin with this letter rise.

Let's turn to the letter - "B"!

Participants with names beginning with "B" are introduced, etc.

The game must be played at an intense pace so that it does not turn into a tedious undertaking.

Any teacher sometimes has to enter into a completely new class. And sometimes the children themselves only get to know each other for the first time on September 1st. And it's not always first-graders. Sometimes, for example, specialized classes, classes in a newly opened school turn out to be new. In such cases, acquaintance between children can be carried out informally, using special games well known to summer camp counselors.

dating games

Each age has its own characteristics, and they must be taken into account when selecting games. "Games for acquaintance" will help to create a favorable environment, liberate children and introduce them in a creative and original way.

ball
For acquaintance of children of primary school age, the game "Ball" is suitable. The leader holds the ball in his hands and says:
colorful ball
Jumping along the path
Along the path, along the path
From birch to aspen,
From the aspen - turn -
Straight to Sasha in the garden! (name of one of the players.)
WITH last words the leader throws the ball up. The participants whose name was called must catch the ball. The one who caught becomes the leader. If the name of a participant who is not in the game is called, then the leader catches the ball and makes the next throw.

It's me
Another version of the dating game for younger children is the “This is me” game. The players become in a circle. The leader is in the center and calls two names (one of the children present), one is male, the other is female.
The players whose names have been called shout: "It's me" - and change places. The leader's task is to take the vacant seat. The one who did not have time to take a free place becomes the leader.

11–13 years old

Hello
Children in grades 5-8 can be introduced using the game "Hello".
All participants stand in a circle facing shoulder to shoulder. The driver walks along the outside of the circle and touches one of the players. The driver and the player who was hit run in different directions along the outside of the circle.
Having met, the children shake hands with each other, say: “Hello” - and call their names. Then they run further, trying to take an empty place in the circle. The one who is left without a place becomes the driver.

Who is who
Another version of the dating game is called "Who's Who?". Each player receives a piece of paper and a pencil. Five minutes after the leader's signal, the players should get to know each other, learning the names and who wants to be who (future profession). You can recognize anything - your favorite color, your favorite music, pets, etc. The data obtained is recorded on a piece of paper. The winner is the one who has time to learn more and write down.

Let's open our hearts to each other
You can use a game called "Open our hearts to each other." Each player receives a heart-shaped token on which he writes his name. The leader walks around with a hat. The players say their names out loud and put their hearts into the hat. After that, the host goes around the circle a second time.
Now the task of the players is to get one of the hearts out of the hat, read the name written on it aloud, remember who it belongs to, and give it to the owner.

Helpline
The game "Helpline" will help the collective acquaintance of students. Participants sit in pairs, boys opposite girls. The girls whisper their names to the boys sitting with them in a pair. After that, the boy sitting in the front row quietly tells the neighbor the name of his partner, so that the other boys do not hear. The second player tells the third the name of the first girl and the name of the one sitting opposite him, and so on.
The last boy must say out loud the names of all the girls. If the name is called correctly, then the girl gets up, if not, then the girl remains seated. After that, the girls learn the names of the boys and call them. The team with the most accuracy wins.

14–16 years old

Vanity
To meet high school students, it is good to use the game "Vanity of Vanities". All participants in the game are given cards that are divided into 9-25 cells. Each cell contains a task. The essence of the game is to write in each cell the name of a person who loves fish, keeps a dog at home, goes hiking, etc. There is room for your imagination here. The more unexpected the tasks, the better.
Using this game, the teacher will not only introduce students, but will also be able to conduct primary diagnostics in the classroom - it all depends on what questions will be recorded in the task cells. You can identify lovers of drawing, singing, playing the guitar. There is no winner in this game, although it is possible to mark those who complete the task first.

My partner
A looser form of the dating game is called "My Partner". Participants are divided into pairs. They are given 3 minutes, during which they must learn as much as possible about each other. Then everyone sits in a circle, and each of the players talks about his partner. Style of presentation - any. Originality is encouraged.

Liar
An unusual way of meeting high school students is the Liar game.
This game will also help you get to know each other better. 5-8 people are needed. Prepare blanks in an amount equal to the number of players. Forms should contain the following questions:
- The farthest place I've been to is... ________________ .
- As a child, I was forbidden to do _____, but I did it anyway.
- My hobbies - ____________.
When I was little, I dreamed of being .
- I have one bad habit - .
Sheets with these questions are distributed to each player, and everyone must fill them out by answering truthfully to all but one of the questions. That is, one answer will be wrong, false.
When everyone has completed their questionnaires, the players take turns reading their answers aloud. The task of the other players is to guess which of the player's answers is false. Have them write their version on the opposite side of their questionnaires. Find out the number of the false answer and award a point to all those who guessed the false answer. The one who scored the most points wins.
You can change the rules. Instead of one wrong answer out of five, write four wrong ones, and one right one.

Snowball
In order for children to better remember each other's names, you can use the game "Snowball". The participants in the game sit or stand in a circle so that they can see each other. Everyone takes turns saying their name.
Each subsequent player calls the names of all previous players, adding his own to them. For example, the first participant calls his name, the second - the name of the first and his own, the third - the name of the first, the second and his own, and so on until the last player, who must name the names of everyone who is in the circle.
Game options:
In addition to his name, each player names a quality that begins with the first letter of the name or corresponds to his character. For example: Vera is fidelity, Sergey is brave, Natalya is tender...
Each player, calling his name, enters the circle of players, making some kind of movement - waving his hand, limping, bending over, etc. Following him, all the players take a step in a circle, calling the name of the previous player and repeating his movement.

Cards
The group is given cards divided into squares. In each square, some quality of a person is written, for example: “I like to sing”, “I have a dog”, “I play volleyball”. Everyone must find people with these characteristics and write their names on their card so that all the cells are filled.
The exercise should include those qualities that are important to the teacher: interest in core activities (“I love the theater”), hobby groups (“I love reading science fiction”), etc.

I can, I can teach, I want to learn
A more complex version of acquaintance, which will also help the teacher to diagnose in a new class, is the game "I can, I can teach, I want to learn." The players sit in a circle. Each on a piece of paper writes answers to three questions: what can I do, what can I teach, what do I want to learn.
Then all the players are divided into pairs, exchange sheets of paper and prepare a presentation to each other for 1-2 minutes in any form (speech, poetry, song, sketch, etc.).
