Author: Leontyeva Anna Vladimirovna, teacher of the preschool educational institution “Kindergarten 233”, Yaroslavl. Description of material: this project was developed for preschoolers in the preparatory group. The material will be of interest to teachers, educators and parents. The project is designed for 2 weeks. Can be used in preparation for the lexical topics “Traditions” and “Family”. “Family traditions... They contain the wisdom of our ancestors. Family traditions... They have the stamp of time. Family Traditions – A Wonderful Heritage. We will bequeath it to our children” I. Nekrasova Abstract: Family is the closest and dearest people who surround us. They give us their warmth and care. A family is like a small state that has its own laws and traditions. It is family traditions that make it stronger and more friendly, and unite its members among themselves. The integrity of the family and its spirituality are based on traditions. Thanks to family traditions, our home becomes cozy and hospitable. The “Family Traditions” project is aimed at solving the problem of children’s insufficient knowledge of family values. The relevance of the topic is that raising a child begins with the family. Children should know family traditions, adopt them and pass them on from generation to generation. Traditions can be very different:
joint events, memorable surprises and gifts, family recipes, a bedtime story told by mom, and many other little things. Although, in fact, these are not trifles at all. Thanks to knowledge about family values and customs, warm relations between different generations are maintained. The family maintains a sense of stability and peace. Acquaintance with family traditions should begin with a generalization of children's knowledge about the traditions of their people (folk holidays, folk toys, folk songs) and knowledge about their family.

The goal of the project: to develop interest in one’s family, the history of one’s family, and preserve family traditions. Project objectives: to form ideas about family and family relationships; Develop an interest in your family, the history of your family, and the preservation of family traditions; Create conditions for teamwork between group teachers, students and parents on issues of family values, using traditional family dishes as an example. Project type: informational, practice-oriented. Project duration: 2 weeks. Expected results: all project participants will acquire knowledge about the traditions and customs of their family. Children will expand their knowledge of the traditions of the Russian people, traditional toys, folk dances, and holidays. Get an idea of the family tree. Parents and children will take part in compiling the “Traditional Family Dishes” album. They will acquire knowledge about the importance and need to honor what is passed down to us from generation to generation. Teachers will be able to expand their knowledge and understanding of the history of their people, and will receive information about the families of their students, their traditions and customs. Products of the project: 1. Compilation of a card index: “Russian folk games for children”; 2.

Relevance and significance

In the modern educational process, it is not unimportant to instill in the younger generation patriotic feelings of love and respect for family and friends. Family is a source of love, respect, solidarity and affection, something on which any civilized society is built, without which a person cannot exist.

Working in the context of the implementation of the Federal State Educational Standard requires the integration of family education and preschool education, changing the style and forms of interaction between the preschool institution and the family, which will ultimately contribute to the development of general principles in the work on the development of the personality of a preschooler, the formation of a common educational space for a preschool child.

The feeling of love for the Motherland originates in the family. And for a child, a family is a world in which the foundations of morality and relationships with people are laid.

Observing the children in our group, we saw that children need the affectionate touch of adults, i.e. they need emotional and tactile contact. Sometimes they put off playing to come up and snuggle up to the teacher. Parents, picking up their children, are constantly rushing them, in a hurry. Some tension arises, which develops into the whims of children and irritability of adults

The survey showed that in our group there are many young families who do not have their own traditions. They consider it unnecessary, not relevant. As a result, children do not receive enough emotional contact and understanding in the family.

A contradiction arises: on the one hand, the importance of family traditions in raising children is recognized by psychologists, and on the other hand, in our time, many families and relatives have lost contact with each other, there are no family traditions, therefore, modern parents do not see the importance of the influence of family traditions on the development of the child.

This contradiction allows us to formulate a research hypothesis: if the necessary conditions are created for children to become familiar with their surname, first name and patronymic of their parents, their clan and pedigree, with family traditions, based on the interaction of children and parents, then this will not only unite the family, but will also have positive impact on the development of spiritual and moral qualities of middle-aged children. In order to study the family, establish contact with its members, and coordinate educational influences on the child, the idea came up to create a project “My Family and Family Traditions ,” which will help children understand the importance of family, instill in children love and respect for its members, and instill a sense of attachment to family and home. We, adults, teachers and parents, must help children understand the importance of family, cultivate in children love and respect for family members, and instill a sense of attachment to family and home.

Expected result:

We assume that as a result of the implementation of this project, all its participants - children, teachers, parents - will acquire certain knowledge.

Children will know:

your family's past;
professions of their parents and grandparents;
the meaning of your last name;
will be able to state their full name and patronymic;

Expected and obtained results:

The peculiarity of our project was that together with our family we not only learned, mastered new things, worked, but also worked in one team “Teachers-Children-Parents”, where parents became active participants in the lives of children in kindergarten.

Thus, we think that the direction we have chosen is promising, that moral and patriotic education should begin with the birth of a child in every family, with familiarization with traditions.

When working with children, a problem emerged. A survey among children showed that children do not know enough about their family, where and who their parents work, what the names of their grandparents, great-grandparents are. To change this situation, the idea came up to create the “My Family” , i.e. to study the family, clarify the educational needs of parents, establish contact with its members, and coordinate educational influences on the child.

Thus, as a result of project activities, children generalized and systematized their knowledge about the family. During the implementation of the “My Family” , the level of children’s knowledge about family has increased significantly. Children learned more about their family, family members, traditions, and the life of their grandparents. Thanks to this project, parent-child relationships have been strengthened, children's horizons have expanded and their vocabulary has been enriched, and new family traditions have emerged in most families.

What are the traditions?

Conventionally, all traditions can be divided according to the time they are held: daily, periodic (weekly, monthly) and annual.

Cute daily traditions - rituals of meeting and farewell. They create a tender relationship and are the key to a good day and a good night.
It’s more pleasant to start the morning of a new day with the words “Good morning!” or “How did you sleep?”, instead of a sad “Hello” under your breath. At the same time, hug and kiss each family member. Do this not automatically, but sincerely and from the heart.
In the evening, before going to bed, be sure to tell a fairy tale or read a book to the children. Wish you good night and pleasant dreams.
Nothing strengthens relationships like family breakfasts or dinners. The whole family should sit down at the same table at least once a day. At this time, you can share plans for the upcoming day or discuss the outgoing one.
Just get together with the whole family once a week . To exchange impressions, discuss the events of the past week or watch a movie together. It doesn’t matter where, on the living room sofa or at the dining table, the main thing is together.
Cook once a week with the whole family . Let it be family pizza, dumplings or salad. This tradition not only strengthens relationships and instills useful skills in children, but also saves mom energy and time. Like in a restaurant: why do you need to create a menu?

From birth, keep a diary of the child's development . Write down interesting words and statements of the child there. Or make notes about its growth once a month in a certain place in the apartment.
It’s a good tradition to organize mini-holidays at the end of school terms or on September 1st. Take your children to a cinema, museum or exhibition.
Organize a family photo session every six months to a year. It can be professional or amateur (as your finances allow). Preparing for it may take some time, but then it will be pleasant to look at the results of your joint work.
Once a year, spend your vacation in some special way . Or bring a refrigerator magnet from every trip, thereby adding to your collection of visited countries and cities. How to organize a move with children: a step-by-step guide for moms
Celebrate birthdays and other memorable events with the whole family. In some families, there is a tradition for each child’s birthday to raise the birthday person on a small chair as many times as the child’s age. Or arrange mini-quests to find a gift. The child is asked to walk around the apartment following notes with riddles. During such a game, the child interacts with his parents and eventually finds a long-awaited gift.

In addition, traditions can be associated with the seasons of the year .

So, in the fall you can go to the park to rustle the fallen leaves. In winter, make “snow angels” in freshly fallen snow. In the spring, take photographs with flowering trees, and then compare photographs from different years. Well, in the summer, after the rain, measure the depth of puddles in rubber boots or just walk through the puddles together.
