Play as a means of educating preschoolers

Play, according to teachers, is the best method of learning anything. While playing, the child does not think about the fact that this is study and they want something from him. He simply performs actions that interest him and easily, naturally remembers a lot of necessary information.

Gender games for preschoolers are one of the ways to explain how girls and boys should behave, what rules their behavior in society is subject to. The outdated stereotype “cars for boys, dolls for girls” has long since become obsolete; modern early development methods tell a completely different story. In addition, the lines between male and female professions are gradually blurring; many women are passionate about the ideas of feminism. Because of this, it becomes more difficult for the younger generation to adapt to their role, and many parents and especially grandmothers are opposed to new practices, when boys playing with dolls and “mother-daughter” are not only allowed, but also encouraged, and girls dream of becoming not a housewife, but, say, a prime minister.

Didactic games with children on gender education

How we raise our children, what personal qualities we can develop in them, taking into account their individual and gender characteristics, directly determines what kind of women and men they will become in the future, what kind of parents they will be for their children. Observing modern children, it can be noted that girls become aggressive and rude, and boys adopt a feminine type of behavior. Many girls lack modesty, tenderness, patience, and do not know how to peacefully resolve conflict situations. Boys, on the contrary, do not know how to stand up for themselves, are physically weak, lack stamina, and they lack a culture of behavior towards girls. The content of children’s games is also alarming: children demonstrate patterns of behavior that do not correspond to the child’s gender, do not know how to negotiate in the game, or assign roles. In addition, in the process of working, children find it difficult to independently distribute responsibilities taking into account the gender of their partner. Boys do not show a desire to come to the aid of girls when physical strength is needed, and girls are in no hurry to help boys where thoroughness and accuracy are needed.

We offer gender education games that will teach children to be attentive to each other and to be able to show sympathy for children of the same and opposite sex.

"Noble deeds"

"Correct the mistake"

To develop knowledge about the rules of etiquette behavior for boys and girls, children are asked to find the “correct” picture and explain their choice. The boy is sitting on the bus, the girl is standing. The girl is sitting on the bus, the boy is standing. A boy smells flowers, a girl carries a bucket of water for irrigation. A girl smells flowers, a boy carries a bucket of water for irrigation.

"Find it right"

To form children's ideas about gender-role stereotypical types of human activity, children are asked to select objects of labor for a boy and for a girl.

“Who wears what?”

To develop the ability to find characteristic differences in the appearance of a boy and a girl, children are invited to choose clothes and accessories for the boy and girl.

“Who works for whom?”

To develop knowledge about the gender component of the profession, children are asked to lay out large cards according to the principle: male/female professions, neutral professions; choose professional tools. The game is accompanied by comments from the children.

"Names"

The teacher places paper cut-out figures of a boy and a girl in front of the child and offers a game: he will name the names, and the child will decide which name is suitable for whom. The teacher monitors the child’s choice, and in ambiguous cases, in a conversation with the child, finds out who (a boy or a girl) the name suits more; would he like to have such a “double” name, etc.

"Ears on top of your head"

The adult calls several names. Children need to listen carefully and say the extra name. Explain why they consider this or that name “superfluous” .

"We're going to visit"

The teacher invites the children to compete to see who can get ready to visit faster. Two (three) children play. They approach the tables and begin to gather for a visit. The adult reminds the children that in order to go on a visit, they need to get themselves in order: dress nicely, comb their hair, etc. The rest of the children are watching their friends. Can they go there right now? Which of the girls will agree to help them?

System of work on the use of didactic games

in gender education of preschool children

The problem of sex education for the younger generation, which allows us to see differently the specifics of pedagogical work with preschool children, is one of the most complex and controversial; the psychological, social and spiritual health of society largely depends on its solution. Today, the problem of raising a child, taking into account gender differences in significance and relevance, has no analogues; it is closely related to the humanization of the pedagogical process, because sets prospects for a person’s further participation in public life, prepares him to fulfill social roles in society and family.

Therefore, it is important to support and develop girls’ softness, responsiveness, tenderness, accuracy, and desire for beauty. And boys have courage, firmness, determination, a chivalrous attitude towards representatives of the opposite sex, i.e. prerequisites for future femininity or masculinity. If the foundations of these qualities are not laid in the preschool years, and it is precisely this age that many researchers define as the initial stage of sexual socialization, then, upon becoming an adult, a person copes poorly with his social roles, the process of assimilating cultural norms, values, and stereotypes of gender-role behavior accepted in a particular society.

Gender-role education involves purposeful pedagogical activity during the life of a child, his general development, nurturing relationships with adults and children, both of the same sex and the opposite. Practical workers and teachers do not always seriously think about how to build relationships between boys and girls in a group; they do not sufficiently take into account their physical capabilities, their interests and needs, and experience difficulties in implementing differentiated education taking into account gender. We can say that the processes of sexual differentiation and identification of preschool children occur spontaneously. Therefore, we have developed a system of didactic games aimed at positive gender role socialization of preschool children.
