Outdoor games for children of the first junior group of preschool educational institutions
Author: Oksana Evgenievna Lashkova, teacher of the preschool educational institution “kindergarten No. 4” of JSC “Russian Railways”, the city of Bologoe, Tver region.Description of work: I offer you a selection of outdoor games for children younger than school age. This material can be used by educators and parents for conducting outdoor games in a group room, at home and on a walk, with children from 1.5 to 3 years old. This material is aimed at developing children's interest in play activity, on the development of such qualities as coordination of movements, speed of reaction, spatial orientation, attention. Outdoor games comprehensively develop the child and evoke positive emotions from the actions performed.
Target: Introduce kids to a variety of outdoor games. Increase physical activity and health of children. Develop attention, coordination of movements, and the ability to navigate in space.
A game occupies a significant place in the life of every child. From an early age, while playing, a child first learns to manipulate objects and studies them. With age, he looks for their connections. When playing, a child develops not only motor skills, but also thinking, imagination, and fantasy. While playing, the child builds logical chains, thinks, reflects. It is impossible to imagine a child's childhood without play. It is not for nothing that it has been noted that the way a child behaves in a game, the same way he will behave in society. Many great teachers have developed and successfully implemented a huge number of games into programs. I work with the smallest children, from one to three years old. And over the years, I have collected a card index of games, which I use in my work. These are mobile, developmental and didactic.
The benefits of outdoor games in a child’s life cannot be underestimated. During active movement, metabolic processes in the body, blood circulation, and breathing are activated. In addition, outdoor games develop coordination of movements, attention and speed of reactions, train strength and endurance, and relieve impulsiveness. I suggest you familiarize yourself with the few, but my kids’ favorite, outdoor games that can be played both in a group room and on a walk. I hope this will be useful to someone in a noble cause, in the education and formation of our infinitely beautiful younger generation.
Outdoor games for children from 1.5 to 3 years old.
"Sunny bunnies"
Tasks: increase motor activity, develop dexterity; evoke positive emotions from the actions performed.Having gathered a group of children around him, the teacher, using a mirror, shoots sunbeams onto the wall and says:
Sunny bunnies

They will come running to you.
After a pause, he gives the signal: “Catch bunnies!” Children run to the wall and try to catch the bunny slipping from under their hands.
"Catch the ball"
Tasks: encourage you to act on a signal, improve running in combination with actions, and enjoy joint actions.The teacher shows the children a basket with balls and invites them to stand next to him along one side of the playground.

Quietly, quietly he lies,
He's either dozing or sleeping.
Let's go to him and wake him up
And we'll see if something happens.

But the bear doesn't sleep,
He keeps looking at me.
And then he growls.
And he will run after us.

The cat opens its eyes
And the chickens catch up.
The cat opens its eyes, meows and runs after the chickens, which run away to a certain corner of the room - the “house”, to the mother hen.

Fight for the ball
Choose a flat area for the game. Draw circles with a diameter of approximately 1 meter. These circles should be located at a distance of 2 - 3 meters from each other.
Choose 3 - 4 drivers who stand between the circles. All other players take their places in circles and begin tossing the ball to each other. The driver's task is to catch this ball. If they succeed, they shout: “Change!” Players must change places. The drivers try to occupy the vacated circles. The one who is left without a circle becomes the driver next time. The winner is the one who has never been a driver during the entire game.
A few mandatory rules:
1. Players cannot leave the circles, and drivers cannot enter the circles.
2. The ball can be passed in various ways.
3. After the command: “Change!” no one should remain in their own circles.

Hot and cold
With the help of this game, it is good to give a child a surprise/gift hidden in advance, because during the search process, the child’s interest in the gift increases (just as a delicious smell from the kitchen increases the appetite before dinner).
A surprise/gift is hidden in advance from the child. He must find it according to the presenter's prompts:
Completely frozen - means that the surprise is very far away and the child is looking in completely the wrong direction. Cold - means that the child is looking in the wrong place.
Winter has come again - it means that the child is going in the wrong direction, after the right direction.
Already warmer - means that the child has turned in the right direction
Warmer means that the child continues to walk/search in the right direction
Hot - the child is already close to a surprise
It's hot - the child is close to a surprise
There's a fire! - the child is a few centimeters away from his gift
The child is looking for a hidden surprise, according to the presenter’s tips described above.
The child enjoys the found gift. Obviously, the child's reward is the gift he finds.
Notes If there is not one child, but several of them, then all children are engaged in the search at once. For this occasion, the gift must be appropriate!

Snow duel
A snow duel is almost a real duel, but with snowballs. The game develops well the coordination of movements and the reaction of children playing.
The game follows the rules of a duel, but with some changes. Namely:
The duel takes place not with pistols, but with snowballs, you can dodge being hit and no one kills anyone. The most you can get is a black eye and a slight concussion.
Two players stand 10 meters apart. Each duelist draws a 1-meter circle around himself - within this circle he can dodge his opponent’s snowball.
After the conditional signal, the first duelist throws a snowball at the opponent. After this, the second duelist throws a snowball at the first.
If one duelist hits and the other misses, then the one who hit is considered to have won the duel.
If both miss or hit, the duel is replayed.
The duelist who is being “shot” can dodge the snowball within the circle outlined around him.
If there are still players, then a new player takes the place of the loser and everything starts all over again.
Notes To reduce the likelihood of injury, you should aim for the torso, not the head. Also, avoid making icy or very hard snowballs.
Players age: from six years old
The game develops: coordination, reaction
Mobility of the game: sedentary
Number of players: 2 or more

Marine figures
For this game you need to choose one driver. The rest of the players are at some distance from him. The driver says: “The sea is worried - one, the Sea is worried - two, the Sea is worried - three, Sea figure, freeze in place!” After these words, all participants in the game must freeze in place, depicting some motionless sea figure, for example, a fish, crab, seahorse or other inhabitants of the seas and oceans. The driver approaches some player and insults him. The player must show how the figure he depicts moves. For example, a fish swims, a crab crawls, a frog jumps. The rest of the participants must guess who the player is portraying.
Next time, the driver can choose the participant in the game who depicted the most mysterious sea figure, that is, one that no one could guess. Or, on the contrary, you can choose as driver the one who depicted the simplest figure that everyone immediately recognized.
Players age: from six years old
Place of play: street, indoors
Mobility of the game: sedentary
Chains
Participants are divided into two equal teams. The players of each team line up in a chain, hold hands and disperse so that the distance between the chains is approximately 7 - 8 meters. The teams agree in advance who will start the game.
The team starting the game (the first), without releasing their hands, walks towards the opponents (the second team) and shouts: “Chains, chains are forged, Who are you not unchained by?”
After that she returns to her place. The opponents, after consulting, name one of the players of the first team. This player runs up and runs into the second team’s chain with all his might, trying to break it.
If the chain can be broken, then the player who did this takes the one who is to his right into his team. In this case, the first team retains the right to break the chain.
If he fails to break the chain, he joins the enemy’s chain. The right to break the chain passes to the second team.
The game continues until only one player remains on one of the teams. Or the team that has more players after a certain time wins.
There is a game similar to this one - “Ali Baba”. Its essence is the same as in “Chains”, only the players shout different words. One of the teams starts the game with the words: “Ali Baba!” The second team answers in unison: “About what, servant?” The first team speaks again, calling the name of one of the players on the opposing team, for example: “Fifth, tenth, Sasha is here for us!”

Lapta
This is an ancient and beloved Russian game. It requires a large platform, a ball and a lapta (bat or board). Two lines are drawn on the site. Behind one of them there is a “house”, behind the other there is a “city”, and between them there is a “field”.
The players are divided into two teams. The teams disperse: one goes to the “field”, and the other goes beyond the “city” line. One player from the “city” team hits the ball with a rounder, runs to the “house” and runs back to his place.
Selected field players try to intercept the ball and throw it at the runner. If the “city” player understands that he will not have time to reach the “house” without being greasy, he can stop and then run to the “city” together with the next player of his team. If the player managed to run to the “house” and return to the “city” unharmed, the team gets a point. If the ball is caught by a “field” player on the fly or if a “city” player is hit while running, the “city” team receives a penalty point.
The game takes place in two stages of 20 minutes each. At the end of each period, the teams switch places.
Then the points are counted and the winner is determined based on their number.
Players age: from ten years
Place of play: street, spacious room

The “Sea King” lives in the water, and the rest of the participants go swimming and tease him. He must catch up and make fun of one of the players. The “sea king” cannot go ashore.
If the “sea king” insults one of the players, then next time the driver, that is, the “sea king,” will be another player.

Live target
You need a flat area and pre-prepared snowballs. In addition, there must be enough players to be divided into two teams. The essence of the game is to run across the area under the enemy's snowball fire and at the same time dodge the blows.
A large rectangle 20 meters long is drawn across the snow on the site. One team, which will run, stands at the starting line (in front of the transverse side of the rectangle), and the other, which will fire, stands along the site.
The first player of the “defectors” takes off and rushes along the court to its opposite border. At this time, the players of the second team must throw snowballs at him, trying to hit him. The running player can weave, weave, and dodge, but mostly moves in a straight line. If he reaches unharmed, his team gets a point. And if he gets hit with a snowball, he is out of the game.
As soon as the first player reaches, the second takes off, and so on. When the whole team has completed the distance, points are counted and the runners become attackers.
The team with the most points wins.

Cossack robbers
The participants of the game must be divided into two teams: the team of “robbers” and the team of “Cossacks”. The “Cossacks” find a place for the captured “robbers” - a “dungeon”, and meanwhile the “robbers” are hiding.
Then the “Cossacks” begin the search, and the “robber” must be caught up and touched. A “robber” who has been captured has no right to escape. All prisoners are in the “dungeon”, they are guarded by a “Cossack”. "Robbers" can free a comrade from the "dungeon", but to do this they must touch the "prisoner". And if he doesn’t manage to escape right away, the “Cossack” guard can catch him again. The “Cossack” can also catch the “robber” who has come to the rescue.
The game is considered over when all the “robbers” are in the “dungeon”. Then the game can be started over, and the participants can switch roles.
