Corners for parents

Hello! I would like to acquaint you and myself first of all with the requirements for designing a corner for parents.

Requirements for the design of a corner for parents.

• Changeability

• Easy to understand

• Alternation of design style and placement

• Large “readable” font (preferably at least 18-20) (TimesNewRoman)

• Not very large volume / Possibility of “book reading”

• Graphic images (if necessary)

• Availability of bright illustrative design (do not overload).

• “Compatibility” of the material, i.e. one information sheet should not contradict another

• “Living material”, i.e., what is currently relevant and interesting for parents: In winter: “Winter poems”, “Warm clothes for walks”; In summer: “Games with sand and water”; “Air baths”, “Safety from sun rays”

• Particularly important material is highlighted: by font, color bar, non-standard design of the title or text, bright background.

• Necessarily! Availability of source, link to website or author, year of publication

Today, I decided to go through the groups of my kindergarten and look at the corners for parents in order to analyze and in my group do everything according to the design requirements.

Junior group (3-4 years)

The corner for parents is decorated in a colorful, bright, easy-to-understand, readable font. The daily routine for kindergarten and family, menu, tips and recommendations, announcements, characteristics of the age of children are presented. The corner meets the annual plan, goals and objectives of the junior group. At the “Advice” stand, recommendations are given to parents on educational activities in the family: a description in an accessible form to parents about the types of educational activities in the family within the framework of the thematic week (update information weekly).

3-4 times a week, as the children’s activities progress, the illustrations in the “Our Successes” corner are replaced.

There are information sheets, booklets, and folders with important information on life safety, traffic rules, and healthy lifestyle.

Also in the reception area there was a stand for children and parents: “You cannot bring it to kindergarten.” Emergency numbers, a helpline and important information “The child has a right” are provided.

Conclusion: the information is easy to understand, large readable font, changeable, bright design. The material is appropriate for this age group.

Middle group (4-5 years old)

This is our group No. 7 “Luchiki”, famous for the fact that the teachers like to decorate everything very beautifully, so you can see how they decorated the walls and doors in the locker room, beautifully. Information for parents is presented colorfully and vividly. Important information for parents: working hours for children. kindergarten, menu, class schedule, etc. The table contains information on issues of pedagogy, traffic rules, healthy lifestyle, information from specialists (their names, office hours, telephone numbers, disease prevention (in a mobile folder).

There is also a stand for children and parents “You cannot bring to kindergarten...”

On the other wall there is “Advice from Experts”

The information is updated by the specialists themselves (psychologist, speech therapist, physician, etc. There are links to the publication, including authorship and year of publication

The information stand “For You, Parents” presents data on the height and weight of children, routine moments of the day, a plan for working with parents for February and a schedule of continuous educational activities in this group.

Also in this group, children’s creativity is presented at the “Creativity Clearing”; children’s daily achievements are displayed here. On the wall there is a thematic exhibition of artistic works made by the hands of children, parents, and teachers. The theme of this exhibition: “Our Dads” dedicated to Defender of the Fatherland Day!

Conclusion: in the group, all the information for parents is age-appropriate, corresponds to the plan and objectives of the kindergarten, the style of design and placement alternates, accessibility to understanding, and “compatibility of the material.”

Senior group (5-6 years old)

The stand is decorated colorfully, not only inscriptions are used, but also photographs. Designed according to the season (winter, information for Defender of the Fatherland Day.

On the table there is temporary information about the group’s projects, relevant information: advice on raising children, issues of pedagogy, medicine, planning of organized educational activities.

At the stand: “For you, parents!” The work plan for February, the age characteristics of children in this group, the daily routine and the schedule of continuous educational activities are presented.

“Living material”: a story about the winter months, poems about winter, songs, games.

In honor of the upcoming holidays, thematic exhibition folders were made about the mothers and fathers of our group, information was provided by parents

Children's creative activities are hung on creativity ribbons

Conclusion: the information is easy to understand, large font, according to the age of this group, there is “live material”, expert advice, especially important material is highlighted in bright, large font.

Preparatory group (6-7 years old)

The information stand for parents presents: daily routine, schedule of continuous educational activities, plan for working with parents for February. But this group has a peculiarity: the motto of the group “Why” is announced, and there is also information about the features of winter games and safety rules on the street in winter.

Also on the table in folders are tips on training fine motor skills, logic, memory, speaking, notes on disease prevention, information about the program under which the preschool child care institution operates, recommendations for parents on educational activities in the family: a description in an accessible form to parents about the types educational activities in the family within the framework of a thematic week.

“Our life day by day” here is daily material in the form of a photo report about past holidays

There is also a screen with various photographs and figures on display for parents in honor of Defender of the Fatherland Day!

Conclusion: The information posted on the stands is relevant, reliable, recommendations and consultations are selected taking into account the age characteristics of children. The compatibility of the material is observed, as well as the presence of a bright illustrative design.

As a result of analyzing the corners for parents, I discovered a lot of useful information for myself.

Folders - moving “Autumn” for preschoolers: contents of folders

Each of the three folders contains the following pages:

  • What does a child of this age know about autumn? What to tell him about.
  • Pictures about autumn to look at with your child.
  • Educational autumn games and experiments.
  • Poems about autumn to read to children and memorize.

Each page has a landscape sheet format - A4 (vertical).

The material in each folder is designed taking into account the age of the children and all methodological requirements for familiarizing preschoolers with the world around them.

All sheets of folders are colorful and bright, realistic and are designed so that the pictures can be viewed with a child while discussing autumn phenomena in nature.

We tried very hard to create a special mood in each folder and look at autumn through the eyes of a child! And also bring joyful mood and smiles to all of you - our readers! Therefore, the folders turned out to be very bright and kind, very sunny and bringing you our warmth!

The authors of the “Autumn” folders are: I, Asya Valasina, Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences in the field of preschool pedagogy, practical teacher, author of this site “Native Path”. And designer Anna Novoyarchikova.

All materials in the book folders can be transferred to friends, colleagues, acquaintances, downloaded and printed, and used in kindergartens, centers, and families. We, the creators of these folders, will be glad if our work is in demand and needed by people, and as many people as possible use it! Therefore, we make these folders free for distribution and you can get them without any payments or subscriptions.

How parents of preschool children can use the “Autumn” folder

Option 1: Print the folder. And use it as a book or as a cheat sheet throughout the day.

Examples of using a move about autumn: We print the folder onto separate A4 sheets. Then it is very convenient to use these sheets with children, choosing the desired sheet for today. You can always take one piece of paper with a poem on a walk with your baby. And during a walk, take it out, look at the picture with your child, and read a poem to the child from this piece of paper. A sheet of paper from a folder looks very aesthetically pleasing and is convenient to look at with your baby; it is light and does not take up much space like a book or album. Then you and your child can look at the nature around you and find signs of autumn - the same as in the picture or in the poem from the folder.

A valuable idea from the experience of mothers: Many parents hang sheets of folders on the refrigerator (changing them) or on a home magnetic board and look at them with their children. These sheets serve as a cheat sheet - a reminder of a poem or a fall game planned for today with your child.

Option 2. Mobile option for using a folder about autumn without printing the folder on a printer. This option appeared in my experience of working with parents many years ago, when mobile phones with camera functions first appeared. Very convenient, fast way. You just need to save the pictures from the “Autumn” folder to your mobile phone. During a walk, you can always open the desired photo and read a poem to your child, look at the picture and find a similar landscape in the park around your baby, or remember an idea for a game and immediately play it with your child.

Working with a group of children, I often made such development folders and noted that parents did not just read them (and this is often what happens: they read them and happily... forgot). On the contrary, almost everyone takes pictures of my materials on their mobile phones and then returns to them at home and saves them for themselves. This is very convenient - you will always have a folder about autumn with you and does not take up space. Therefore, I decided to share “Native Path” with all readers.

We made three folders - movements about autumn according to the ages of children: early age (up to 3 years), junior preschool age (3-4 years), senior preschool age (5-7 years).

Now I will show examples of pages from folders - movements about autumn and give links to download these pictures in full format for printing.

— Signs of autumn: pictures with the task for the child “Find the signs of autumn.” While discussing the top picture with your child, ask him why this is not summer? After all, it also rains in summer. Pay attention to the girl's warm clothes. If she dressed warmly, that means...? (it’s cold outside, but warm in summer). In the bottom picture, find signs of autumn (the harvest is ripe, the leaves are falling).

Why do teachers need “Autumn” folders?

  • Folders can be used as visual material for parents in kindergartens and children's centers (for example, a mobile folder can be located in the hallway of a kindergarten or in the locker room of a kindergarten group). This folder introduces parents to what educational games they can play with their child in the fall, what poems about autumn are intended for children of this age, and what to tell the child about in the fall.
  • Folders can also be used as handouts for parents of preschool children on the topic “Autumn” at various family workshops and play libraries,
  • The mobile folder can be printed as an A4 book, inserted into files (for this you need to purchase special folders with files) and get the book “Autumn” for the kindergarten group. This book can be passed from family to family and viewed in a group with children. It will serve you for a very long time!
