Types of gymnastics after naps in kindergarten
Warm-up in bed and hardening
Without rising from their beds and throwing back the blankets, children perform a small number of general developmental exercises while lying on their backs. Then the group stands barefoot on massage mats located next to the beds . They walk in place for a few minutes, which can be switched to running.
The gymnastics are continued in another room, pre-cooled to a temperature of 19°C. Here, to rhythmic music, children are asked to perform voluntary movements, which end with breathing exercises.
Game activities
Imaginative gymnastics involves children imitating the movements of animals (a frog jumps, a cat arches) or birds (a heron on one leg), imitation of the characteristic movements of athletes (skiing, skating), etc.
Gymnastics after sleep in the preparatory group on exercise machines
The complex begins with a light warm-up: steps, jogging and jumping. Then the group of children is divided into subgroups of several people. The first team practices in the sports corner , where ropes, ladders and other elements are located.
The second team exercises with children's exercise equipment: dumbbells, discs . The third group heads to treadmills and cycling. Classes change every 5 minutes.
Classes on massage paths
It is recommended to carry out such exercises at least 2 times every 7 days. The group practices barefoot. Gymnastics begins with steps along the paths, then the rhythm accelerates and easy running begins, the latter lasting no more than 90 seconds.
Next, you need to do several breathing exercises while walking slowly. Next 2-3 min. The children are encouraged to run continuously.
The lesson ends with slow steps along the health paths.
Types (blocks) of gymnastics after naps in kindergarten
Exercises "lying in bed" or "lazy"
This block includes a light warm-up, finger exercises and acupressure.
Swimming - categories and standards for children?
Example:
Who woke up here?
Did you take off the blanket and stretch? (children do pull-ups while lying in bed)
Did you sit up straight and smile? (children sit down and smile)
- Guys, it’s good that everyone woke up. All that remains is to wake up our fingers.
Assignment: place your hands in front of you, fingers extended forward, then slowly bring the tips of the fingers of your right and left hands together.
Note! Children try to bring their palms together 2-3 times, then the palms return to their original position.
– Now let’s show the “washing hamster”?
Assignment: children puff out their cheeks and begin to rub them with their hands, then “wash” their paws.
Breathing exercise block
This block includes a light warm-up, finger exercises and acupressure, as well as tasks for the development of the respiratory system, which helps fill cells with oxygen and increase the activity of the central nervous system.
Example:
- Who woke up here?
Did you take off the blanket and stretch? (children stretch while lying in bed)
Did you sit up straight and smile? (children sit down and smile)
- Guys, it’s good that everyone woke up. All that remains is to wake up our fingers.

Note! Children try to bring their palms together 2-3 times, then the palms return to their original position.
– Now let’s show the “washing hamster”?
Assignment: children puff out their cheeks and begin to rub them with their hands, then “wash their paws.”
Exercise "Snake"
Task: Children take a breath, and as they exhale say “ssss” (5-7 times).
Exercise "Dragon".
Assignment: children close 1 nostril and inhale. Exhalation occurs through the mouth. Then pinch the other nostril and repeat the task (5-7 times).
Resistive load block
This block involves getting out of bed and moving into the play and educational space.
Note! This could be: outdoor games, the use of exercise equipment, an orthopedic track, an obstacle course, etc.
Tasks can be for dexterity, ingenuity, strength and balance, eye gymnastics and water procedures.
Corrective track
Gymnastics goals
Gymnastics in kindergarten has the following goals:
- Calm exit from the resting state and the beginning of the wakefulness phase.
- Elimination of lethargy.
- Bringing the child's nervous system into tone.
- Activation of the functions of various systems in the body (respiratory, cardiovascular, etc.).
- Preparation for intellectual activity.
- Increased physical performance.
- Uplifting mood and improving overall well-being.
- Normalization of the immune system, prevention of diseases.
- Hardening.
Features of gymnastics by month
Gymnastics after sleep in the preparatory group takes approximately 10-15 minutes in duration.
In this short time it is impossible to carry out gymnastics covering all the muscles and systems of the body. For the comprehensive development of children, it is recommended to change the composition of activities after sleep every month. During this period, the guys will master all the exercises of the previous complex and begin to warm up and train new muscle groups. Changing gymnastics keeps children interested in classes throughout the year.
The following is a brief overview of several complexes that can replace each other monthly:
- The first group of exercises begins with running in a cold (19°C) room, followed by preventative exercises for flat feet.
- The next complex includes warming up while lying and sitting in bed, breathing and hardening exercises.
- Next, instead of breathing exercises, the complex includes aerobics accompanied by music.
- The fourth complex begins with a hardening run, followed by exercises to prevent posture.
Why do you need gymnastics after sleep in the preparatory group?
Gymnastics after sleep is a series of exercises that provide a smooth transition between sleep and wakefulness. It is combined with corrective gymnastics, which is aimed at correcting and maintaining posture, preventing flat feet, and maintaining muscle tone.
Charging tasks
- prevention of acute respiratory infections, ARVI;
- health promotion;
- strengthening muscles, ligaments and the musculoskeletal system;
- increased central nervous system activity;
- physical development;
- increased mental activity;
- harmonious awakening;
- correction of musculoskeletal function;
- avoiding whims after a nap.
The preparatory group considers themselves “adults” and has difficulty falling asleep, and gymnastics helps to quickly increase the body’s performance. The child finally awakens and is ready for a walk and physical activity.
Rules for awakening gymnastics
During daytime sleep, it is necessary to ventilate a suitable room for air hardening; the temperature difference with a warm bedroom should be 3-5°C. In summer, hardening gymnastics can be performed outdoors.
The moment of awakening is accompanied by quiet music, the volume and tempo of which increases as the intensity of the exercises increases. Charging begins according to schedule with the children waking up; as they wake up, the rest of the children join the process. It is not allowed to force a child to study.
Gymnastics after sleep in the preparatory group should be without sudden movements
The basic rule of gymnastics in bed: exclude sudden movements , as well as getting out of bed, so as not to cause dizziness and stretch rested muscles. Before starting gymnastics in bed, the pillow is removed from under the head.
During charging, children move to a “cold” room or outside for active walking and running. Here you can conduct classes for correct posture and to prevent flat feet, practice corrective walking and run on massage mats. The group then returns to the warm bedroom for further exercise. The transition can be made several times per lesson.
Gymnastics classes are recommended to be carried out in a playful way , this creates a positive emotional atmosphere among children. The technique of performing exercises based on imitation of animals or other images is easier for children to master; such activities develop motor imagination.
Card file of awakening gymnastics in the preparatory group for a year according to the Federal State Educational Standard
To compile a card index of gymnastic awakening for the year, you can borrow calendar-thematic planning and examples of exercises in the didactic manual “Health-improving gymnastics for children 3-7 years old” (Penzulaeva L.I.).

A calm warm-up in bed lasts about 3 minutes; it may contain elements of self-massage and finger exercises. Children spend the same amount of time in a cooled room, moving on the floor or on massage mats.
After active exercises, a breathing complex follows. To avoid nausea and dizziness, breathing exercises begin from 30 seconds to 1 minute, gradually increasing the duration of the cycle to 5-7 minutes.
Features of the organization of awakening gymnastics in the preparatory group
Before carrying out the exercises, it is necessary to awaken all children. The amount of sleep and duration is individual for everyone. You should not do gymnastics when some are ready to get out of bed or have not slept at all, while others continue to sleep soundly. Wake-up occurs with musical accompaniment. Experienced teachers recommend using sounds of nature, sea water or children's songs.
Important! To avoid psychological stress, you should never awaken a child by braking or making a sharp sound.
Rules of organization and distribution of loads for children 6-7 years old
Charging conditions:
- the room is ventilated before going to bed;
- air temperature 18-20 degrees;
- children must wear panties and a T-shirt or pajamas;
- for dynamic gymnastics on the floor or mats, socks are put on your feet.
Rules of the organization:
- the set of exercises corresponds to the classes performed in the first half of the day;
- those who woke up earlier should be given a “lazy” type exercise;
- absence of prolonged tension;
- it is necessary to repeat the instructions for implementation several times;
- You should not force a barely awakened baby to actively work with other children. Perhaps he had a bad dream or is not ready for physical work.
Preparing for gymnastics
Load distribution:
To carry out exercises harmoniously, it is necessary to combine types of gymnastics. For example, 3 exercises in a crib, 1-4 on the floor and completing the exercise with exercises to develop the respiratory system.
For the best results, you can use aids: music, video, obstacle course, orthopedic mats, etc.
Important! Charging duration is no more than 10 minutes.

Exercises in verses
Gymnastics after a nap in the preparatory group can be accompanied by comments from the teacher in poetry.
Rhyming exercises create a fun atmosphere, help to cope with the task and increase children's interest in classes. Poetic comparisons of movements with representatives of the animal world or other images allow you to present the gymnastics complex in a playful form. Poems develop a sense of rhyme in children, and fun activities instill a love for physical education.
Start charging:
Gymnastics is useful, Gymnastics is necessary, From illnesses and diseases, It saves us!
Exercises:
- The sun is floating in the sky (children lie in their beds face up and describe wide circles with their arms).
- The fresh wind crushes the grass (the guys sit on their knees, lean towards the bed and randomly wave their arms from side to side).
- Water runs in the stream (children remain sitting on their knees and twist their arms bent at the elbows back and forth).
- The fox wags its tail (standing doggy style, the guys rotate their pelvis in different directions).
- The elephant nods its head (the children stand in the same position and importantly swing their heads in different directions).
- The duck swims home (the guys lie face down, arch their backs, clasp their ankle joints with their hands and swing).
- The frog jumps deftly (children make deep jumps).
- The little bunny pricked up his ears (sitting on his haunches, the guys depict the ears of a hare with their palms).

Along smooth paths, Over pebbles and stitches, Our feet walk, Top-top-top, Palms clap, Clap-clap-clap. Washing. Water, water, wash my face. So that the eyes sparkle, So that the cheeks blush, So that the mouth laughs. So that the tooth bites.
Hardening procedures
Due to the large number of children in kindergarten groups, it is impossible to organize a personal approach to each child to develop a set of hardening procedures. Therefore, in order to avoid negative consequences, daily moderate hardening is carried out, unless there is an epidemic.
Depending on the outside air temperature, part of the active exercises of the complex can be carried out in the fresh air. In cold seasons, the group moves to 2-3 minutes. into a cool room with a temperature of 17-19°. Children perform gymnastics without shoes or socks, wearing only T-shirts and shorts.
Walking barefoot on massage mats, which can be followed by steps on basins of water, has a great healing effect. The gymnastic complex is completed by extensive washing with cold water, while washing the face, hands, neck and chest.
If possible and in agreement with the child’s parents and pediatrician, intensive hardening can be carried out with a small group of healthy children.
Gymnastics after waking up plays a big role in the development of children in the preparatory group. Drowsiness and lethargy, as consequences of sleep, do not allow children to engage in intellectual exercises in a timely manner. Therefore, it is important to organize a smooth transition to wakefulness through exercise and hardening procedures.
