Recommendations for reading fairy tales to children:

Introducing children to reading does not mean buying a lot of books and giving the child access to them or giving him audio recordings of fairy tales. Communication is always a child’s communication with an adult about books, it is our observation of how the child perceives a particular book, it is playing with it with children. By listening to the books that the mother reads, the baby learns perseverance, the ability to listen and hear.

How to read fairy tales to kids? A collection of useful ideas and tips.

— The youngest children under the age of three learn to listen and understand fairy tales:

a) accompanied by illustrations or toys (you show pictures or act out a story using toys),

b) without a visual basis (i.e. simply listening to the text as you read or tell it).

A young child can understand the text of a fairy tale without pictures and scenes (i.e., without visual accompaniment) only if these are works that are familiar to him or her, or a simple, familiar plot that is very close to the child’s experience.

— While reading fairy tales to kids, involve them in finishing the last words in a phrase (finding the last syllables in familiar lines, finishing the characters’ words). For example: You start a phrase, and the baby finishes it, for example: “I’m in the box...?” (baby finishes). With this you develop the baby’s speech, encourage him to speak, listen to the words of the work, prepare him for retelling fairy tales, for constructing dialogues.

— Sing with your child the repeated songs of the characters in the fairy tale that he knows.

— It is very useful to sing and pronounce the words of a fairy tale at different tempos: faster and slower. Or with different voice strengths: loud - quieter - very quietly (for example, we speak the words of a bear loudly, and the same words of a mouse - very quietly, almost in a whisper)

- Learn to speak with intonation expressiveness: joyfully or sadly, surprised or boldly (How did Kolobok sing his song - scared or boldly? Let us sing the same way - and sing the song together, continuing to read the fairy tale).

— They read to kids for about 10 minutes, if the child is interested, then 15 minutes. You need to read daily (preferably at the same time and in the same place). At first, the baby will be attracted by the unusual setting and bright pictures in the book, then he will begin to be interested in its content.

— If a child was not read or read little at an early age, then at three years old he usually has difficulty listening to a fairy tale without being distracted.

Section 2. Fairy tales for children of primary preschool age (3-4 years)

2.1. How to read fairy tales to younger preschoolers:

a collection of useful tips and ideas

— The general rule for reading a fairy tale to children of any age is that a fairy tale should be read while the child has interest in his eyes, that is, while he really wants to listen to it. And therefore: we finish reading large fairy tales (fairy tales with a continuation) at the most interesting point, so that the child has a great desire to find out what will happen next and continue listening.

- If a child is tired and does not want to listen to a book, then it is best not to force it. Instead, go for a walk or play, change your activity. Interest in a book cannot be cultivated through violence.

— Before reading, tell your child the genre, author and title of the fairy tale. For example: “Let’s read the fairy tale by Korney Ivanovich Chukovsky “Doctor Aibolit.” Naming a genre is a small step towards a culture of reading, towards knowledge of the characteristics of different genres of literature (Later - by the age of 6-7, your child will be able to accurately determine the genre and answer the question: “What kind of work is this - a fairy tale, story or poem?” Is this a lullaby or a counting rhyme?” and give reasons for your opinion). Always name the genre precisely, correctly - not “rhyme”, but “poem”, not “fairy tale”, but “fairy tale”. If the fairy tale is a folk tale, then you can say this: “I will tell you the Ukrainian folk tale “Rukavichka.”

— Before reading a fairy tale to a child, it is advisable for adults to familiarize themselves with its text and illustrations. This is necessary both in order to explain unfamiliar words in a timely manner, and in order to pay attention to expressive words and figurative comparisons, to the language of a fairy tale. And for one more reason - which has arisen recently in book publishing for children. A very important reason.

When buying a book for a child, be sure to carefully read the text of the fairy tale right in the store, because Nowadays, it is very common to find “free” retellings of famous fairy tales and translations that are not at all distinguished by their artistry. Such texts are very harmful for children to read. Alas, I got caught too. I'll tell you so that you don't repeat my mistake.

This December we bought beautiful children's books with Russian fairy tales as a New Year's gift (panorama books). Already at home, I was surprised to discover that the text of the fairy tales was completely different, scanty, completely inexpressive, and even shortened three times! All phraseological units and fairy-tale expressions characteristic of Russian speech were thrown out of the text - the language of a fairy tale is simply “nothing” as a result, such a language cannot give anything to a child! There are scenes of violence and rude speech in modern translations. Now, when choosing a book with fairy tales, I look very carefully not only at the title, author and illustrations, but also at the name of the translator or author of the treatment of each fairy tale. I indicated these names of authors of high-quality translations and adaptations of fairy tales known to me in the list of recommended fairy tales for children - please pay attention. Fairy tale processing and translation is VERY IMPORTANT.

—

Very often, kids ask to read the same fairy tale several times. What should I do - read it or suggest another? Of course, read - read the fairy tale that the child has chosen and asks to repeat. Preschool children love repeating fairy tales; every time they relive the same situations with the same pleasure, as if they were listening to a fairy tale for the first time. Then they begin to correct your inaccuracies, if you made a mistake somewhere while reading, they know the fairy tale almost by heart, but still ask you to repeat it again and again. This is an important stage in the development of a child as a future reader.

According to my observations, every child or every group of children has one such favorite book that is read to its core. It is very important that such a book - a fairy tale - carries universal moral values, has an artistic language, and carries positive behavior and life scenarios. We don’t know which of the books your child will suddenly “fall in love” with, which will capture his inner world and become his life partner, which of the fairy-tale characters he will want to become like, so very high demands are placed on each book for children.

You can read the same fairy tale today, and tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, and next week, then take a break and repeat it again. Each time a fairy tale opens up new layers of meaning for us, we begin to see in it what we had not noticed before. Then you will see for yourself how the child “cooled down” to the fairy tale and offered to listen to another one.

— Children love to dramatize fairy tales. Never cut out figures from a book for the theater. This will demonstrate our disrespect for the book. Where to get pictures for games and performances:

A) make a color photocopy of the pages of the book and glue the figures onto cardboard,

B) take photographs of pictures from the book, print them and cut them out,

C) on the Internet there are options for pictures based on fairy tales that can also be used. Moreover, it is very convenient to combine characters from different fairy tales to create your own.

— While playing a fairy tale, a child can change its plot, introduce new characters, new dialogues. This is normal, you can’t stop him or even scold him because “he didn’t listen well, this didn’t happen in the fairy tale.” Allow your child to create, invent, compose. This is amazing! After all, a fairy tale and a dramatization game are creativity, living speech, and not a text memorized in advance. And creative theatrical and staged fairy tales (games based on fairy tale plots) are a very important part of a child’s life, necessary for his full development.

— If your child is not interested in books, don’t be upset. Interest in a book is cultivated and developed - this is not an innate quality. In this case, start with small works, finishing reading until the baby gets tired.

- A fairy tale or a cartoon - which option is better? Option 1 - first watch a cartoon based on a fairy tale with your child, and then read this fairy tale. Or option 2 - first read a fairy tale, and then watch a cartoon based on it?

I answer: the second option is better. And that's why. When listening to a fairy tale, the child is more active, he invents it himself - he recreates in his imagination the images of the heroes of the fairy tale. He does not have flashing pictures on the screen before his eyes, and therefore he listens more carefully to the words of the fairy tale. When watching a cartoon, the child is passive; the images of the characters have already been created by the director and artist. Of course, nothing bad will happen if the baby sees the cartoon first, and then you read the fairy tale. But if you have a choice, it is better to choose the second option.

— Don’t be afraid to read fairy tales with vivid artistic language and complex syntactic structures to children who cannot speak or speak poorly; do not simplify the language of the fairy tale “to suit the child’s speech level.” Even if the baby still speaks poorly, he absorbs everything and understands everything! On the contrary, even for poorly speaking children, it is very necessary and very important to read highly artistic fairy tales every day and often, providing an example of literary speech. This is the “nutrient medium” in which the child’s rich expressive speech will gradually form and develop. Otherwise, he will remain at the level of primitive thought and primitive speech. Do not impoverish the literary life and language of your children! Lay the groundwork for the future!

— For children of primary preschool age, it is better to tell a folk tale rather than read it from a book (if possible). Or at least look through the text of the fairy tale “forward” with your eyes through the book, and then repeat it out loud to the baby, looking into his face and observing his reaction.

When you tell a fairy tale, looking at a child, you see his reactions, you can pause at the right moment, change the intonation of speech, ask a question. It is difficult and not at all interesting for a small child to listen to a fairy tale if the adult is buried in the text and does not pay attention to the baby.

Section 3. Fairy tales for children of senior preschool age (5-7 years old)

3.1. How to read fairy tales to older preschoolers?

If at 3-4 years old adults often choose what to read to children, then at 5-7 years old children are already more independent in choosing fairy tales, and individual preferences are very clearly visible. Children enjoy discussing fairy tales, imagining themselves in the place of the hero (answering the question: “What do you think the boy did next? What would you do in his place? Why?”), the kids come up with their own ending to the fairy tale. They can compare different genres of literature (fairy tale and short story, fairy tale and boring fairy tale). They compare works of the same theme by different authors (for example, “Moroz Ivanovich” - a Russian fairy tale and “Mistress Blizzard” - a German fairy tale), compare illustrations for one fairy tale by different illustrators, they are interested in the biographies of writers and illustrators. It is at this age that the foundations of a reading culture are laid, the ability to listen to a text, analyze it, understand the subtext, and make literary discoveries is developed.

I highly recommend finding in the children’s library (or downloading and printing) a book for adults and children to read together - L.P. Strelkov "Lessons of a fairy tale"

(published by the Pedagogika publishing house with wonderful illustrations). In this book you will find very interesting games and techniques for introducing children to fairy tales. Together with the hero of the book, the boy Danilka, you will travel through different fairy tales and complete tasks.

The book helps kids understand the emotions and motives of the actions of fairy-tale characters, experience situations from fairy tales and learn very important lessons about humanity. I grew up with this book, now I read it to my children, it’s already shabby, but we still love it. I haven’t seen the reprint of the book - if you have seen it somewhere, then please write about it in the comments to the article.

— Great idea: For older preschool children, I highly recommend taking the same fairy tale with illustrations from different artists from the library and looking at and comparing the illustrations at home in a quiet environment. A lot of interesting discoveries await you! And you will have a wonderful developmental conversation with your child. It turns out that each artist sees his own, individual in the same passage of a fairy tale! In addition, the illustrations for the fairy tale reflect the history of things around us.

For example, I highly recommend borrowing K.I.’s fairy tale from the library. Chukovsky “Telephone” in different designs - with illustrations by different artists. You and your child will look at phones from different eras and compare them with your home phone and mobile phone. When the baby sees in the picture the old telephones that his great-grandmother and great-grandfather used, he will be delighted and very interested. And then, together with your children, come up with a phone of the future - what will the phone be like in 100 years? Unleash your imagination!

Here is a landmark - the names of the artists - illustrators of the fairy tale "Telephone": early editions of K. Rudakov (an old telephone), V. Vinokur (also a telephone from the time of our children's great-grandmothers), V. Konashevich (the childhood telephone of the grandmothers of modern children), L. Yakshis, V Suteev (telephones from our childhood, including telephones on the streets - remember those?), modern editions of the fairy tale (modern telephones).

You can also compare illustrations to other fairy tales - how are the same characters depicted by different artists, what is depicted around them and what can these details tell us?

— For children of older preschool age, I also highly recommend borrowing books from one author from the library and organizing “book themed weeks” of the child’s favorite writers and poets. At home, we rarely have the opportunity to have different works by the same author (our apartments are small, after all), and the library is a great help here. Make a small mini-exhibition of books by one author on a shelf at home for your child to access and read his books to your child this week, tell interesting facts about this author’s biography. You can make a thematic exhibition of fairy tales about nature, fairy tales by A.S. Pushkin with illustrations by different artists, sea tales or forest tales, tales of a certain people (English fairy tales, Belarusian fairy tales). Librarians will be happy to help you select books - it’s a joy for them! This is already a higher level than simply reading fairy tales, the level is very interesting, deep and developing!

- If you live in Moscow, then you have an amazing opportunity to enroll your child in the main library of our country - the Russian State Children's Library. Use it! This is the Palace of the Book, which little ones enter with bated breath, and which fosters a love of books just by entering it! The library is located next to the Oktyabrskaya metro station. During school holidays, this library hosts excursions (for a nominal fee or free of charge), including for preschool children. I also recommend attending classes in the Fairy Tale Room. It hosts fairy-tale classes (for example, based on the fairy tale “Town in a Snuffbox” by V. Odoevsky and others). If you are a teacher, then you can agree on classes with a group of your children or with a family group (parents + children). Children from the age of two can be enrolled in the library reading room. The library has a literary studio for preschoolers and a studio for educating the future reader, and offers FREE literary classes for children 3-6 years old.

If you live in another city, don’t be sad that you are far from the Russian Children’s Library, go to your children’s library, and you will be surprised to learn how many interesting events for children take place there. Take this opportunity to join the world of books! Moreover, classes with children and master classes in libraries are often free or cost symbolic money (for example, we paid 40 rubles!).

— While reading a fairy tale to a child over 5 years old, you can pause and ask: “What do you think Vasya did? What would you do in his place? What could happen next? Now let’s find out what really happened next.” It is very important to discuss with the child the motives of the heroes’ actions, to help the child feel like he is in the place of the hero of a fairy tale, to teach him to make moral choices in difficult life situations and to show the consequences of the choice.

— In fairy tales for children of senior preschool age, there are often new words that are incomprehensible to preschoolers. What to do - explain their meaning or not?

If a word is important for understanding the meaning of the text, then you need to explain it before reading the fairy tale, so as not to be interrupted later. If the word does not affect reading comprehension, and the child did not ask a question about the meaning of this word, then there is no need to interrupt reading the fairy tale. Either the child will learn the meaning of this word later, at the next age level, or you will explain to him the meaning of the word later - for example, the next day (show this object in the picture in the book, name it, explain why it is needed). If, while reading a fairy tale, you are constantly interrupted, explaining in detail each new word (mass, herald, etc.), then the emotional perception of the fairy tale and its impact on the child will be reduced to “no”.
