Where to find Arina Rodionovna?
Nobody will undertake to determine exactly what we owe the nurse Pushkin Arina Rodionovna, nurse Leskov, Gorky's grandmother. But where is today to find wise grandmothers-storytellers? Special expeditions go to their search to the most remote corners of the country. ..
Still, there is a way out."Grandma, well, read a little. .. Please!" The baby is pulling you to the edge of the dress and holding out a book with fairy tales. Let it read to the holes, the child is ready for the hundredth time, with bated breath, listening to Babu-Yaga and Cheburashka, Barmaleya and Carlson. It is impossible to resist the touching request, and you two are comfortable to arrange in a quiet corner.
is a story-driven fairy tale, a small listener of the laws of human relationships, characters of such stories show him a whole gallery of characters, deeds, fates. All possible transformations, disappearances and the appearance of fairy-tale characters give an idea of time and space, the connection of the century with nature, with the objective world. And are the monsters and ghosts terrible? They are supposedly specially given so that the kid can test himself for perseverance, he has learned to understand where evil is, and where one treats fairy tales as a very important matter. Just do not make it a painful duty. Is it not tempting to get out of the role of an adult, a respectable person and, remembering the happy time of childhood, succumb to the charm of fabulous fiction, sincerely believe in miraculous events! That's where the limitless possibilities to test fantasy, acting skills, sense of humor, all that, alas, is rarely required in everyday life.
Why not read the children's book in person, and each character has his own intonation, his own character? The child will certainly like this idea, and he will willingly take some roles for himself. You can play a simple fairytale story with the help of dolls, taking the role of the main director and actor to the kid.
The wonderful storyteller Gianni Rodari resembles an old game like "misinterpretation of a fairy tale."
"Once upon a time there was a girl called Yellow Hat," you begin your story."No, not Yellow, but Red!" - hurry to correct you grandson or granddaughter."Yes, yes, Red. .. So, Red Riding Hood went to visit Goethe. .." - "No, not to my aunt, but to my grandmother!"You again mixed up everything. .. "- your listener gets angry. He wants a familiar fairy tale to be told the same words as the first time. But sooner or later children grow out of a fairy tale, like an old dress, and they begin to parody it willingly. They play not so much with a fairy tale as with the oboe.
Take, for example, five words that suggest the story of the Little Red Riding Hood, and add to them a sixth, completely extraneous: "girl", "forest", "flowers", "wolf", "grandmother" and. .. "helicopter".Now we need to come up with a story from these words - to use the familiar words and images in a new context.
No less interesting is the task: to change radically the characters of fairy-tale characters, how to "turn inside out" a fairy-tale theme. The child will have to invent a fairy tale in which Little Red Riding Hood is evil, and the Good Wolf;Cinderella, a naughty girl, tears the quiet step-sisters and stepmother, and Snow White meets seven giants and becomes an accomplice to their bandit raids. What a great opportunity to practice in the non-standard way of thinking!
If you attempt to attack the reputation of good characters scary, you can go another way - to come up with a continuation to the tale. How does Cinderella live after she gets married? Maybe she does not change old habits: she sticks out forever in the kitchen - unkempt, in a dirty dress. Such a wife was quickly fed up with the Prince, and he is much more willing to spend time with the Cinderella sisters who are fond of dancing, cinema and traveling. The essence of the game in the intuitive analysis of the fairy tale.
But then, if you leave aside all the pedagogical merits of playing in "misinterpretation of fairy tales", this activity will amuse all small and large family members.
