Description and forms of organizing children's activities:
Children in free play activity. The teacher begins a puppet theater show from behind a screen. Children notice that someone is crying loudly. The Bunny appears and says that the evil Fox kicked him out of the house, took away his toys, clothes and food. He wants to go home to his parents, but does not know how to drive Lisa away.
The guys think that it’s wrong to do this to Bunny, because he’s still a child and won’t be able to take care of himself. The teacher comes out from behind the screen and discusses with the children how to help the Bunny. After all, the evil Fox violated his rights. What children's rights do the children know? The teacher activates the children's attention on the map, a piece of which sticks out from behind the screen.
Annex 1.
The children look at the map and decide to follow its route, taking the Bunny with them. There are 6 multi-colored circles on the map (movement on the map begins in any of two directions), the guys find the first circle in the group corresponding to the map, complete the game task and move on.
After passing all the points on the map, the children are left with cards, collecting which they will easily remember the basic rights of children.
Equipment and materials: screen, bi-ba-bo dolls Fox and Hare, map (Appendix 1.
), A4 sheet, white wax crayon or candle, simple pencils, beads with containers from Kinder surprises, various small toys, an empty blister for tablets, a container with cereals (peas, beans) or pasta, whatman paper with lined windows and a roof, models family members, balloon. A box with a lock, a key to it, a thin rope.
"Mysterious Letter"
The children have a blank sheet of paper in front of them. The teacher says that very important information is classified on this sheet. There is nothing nearby except a glass with simple pencils. To recognize it, you need to do certain things (color over a sheet of paper with a simple pencil). A spoon is drawn on a sheet of paper using wax crayon or a candle.
Conclusion: children have a right to food.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 2.
"Magic Beads"
Closed containers for kinder surprises are strung on a string. They contain various small toys and an empty pill blister. After the children have removed all the objects, they draw a conclusion about what is superfluous and why.
Conclusion: children have the right to medical care.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 3.
"Find all the objects"
In front of the children is a container with cereal (peas, beans) or pasta. Inside are various small toys: a car, a baby doll, and toy dishes. You should find all the objects and say what unites them.
Conclusion: children have the right to toys.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 4.
"Lay it out correctly"
On the table lies a Whatman paper with outlined windows and a roof. This is home. Children remember which window each family member is located in (grandmother, grandfather, mother, father, older brother, younger brother and sister). After this, the teacher removes everyone from the windows and asks them to put all the people in their places.
Conclusion: children have the right to a family.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 5.
"Get a hint"
In front of the children is a deflated balloon with a hint inside. They realize that they can only get it by inflating and bursting the balloon. The clue shows a house.
Conclusion: children have the right to housing.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 6.
"Box with a Secret"
A rope is stretched through various objects (legs of tables, chairs, cabinet handles). At one end of the rope there is a key, and at the other there is a box attached. It can only be opened by pulling the key for its lock through the entire rope. After completing the task, open the box containing items of clothing (socks, T-shirts).
Conclusion: children have a right to clothing.
The teacher suggests choosing the appropriate card. Appendix 7.
Result: The teacher and the children come up to the screen and tell the Fox not to violate the Bunny’s rights. The Fox asks to know his license and runs away, saying that this won’t happen again (you can resort to the help of a second teacher or record the Fox in advance and simply turn on the audio recording).
As a result of the quest, children create a set of cards with a schematic depiction of human rights, which can be collected in a brochure or presented on an information stand. Appendix 8.

Presenter 1:
Hello, we are pleased to welcome experts - participants in our intellectual and legal game, the theme of which is “Great Rights for Little Children”! We have gathered to talk about rights, because there is no happy, free and interesting life if a person does not have rights and cannot use them. Every year on November 20, World Children's Day is celebrated to commemorate the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. And on December 10, World Human Rights Day is celebrated. Also a very important date. And today, December 12, is the day of adoption of the new Constitution of the Russian Federation. We dedicate today’s meeting to all these significant holidays and invite you to go on an unusual journey – a journey through the Land of Rights.
This game will take place across stations. The task of the experts at the stations is to monitor the correctness of the teams’ answers, check the accuracy of completed tasks, and summarize the results of the rounds. They also ensure that the rules of the game are not violated, keep records of points earned, and they also have the right to make a verdict in a controversial situation. I ask the experts to take their places. (The experts go to the place allocated for them.)

It was first introduced by Tsar Ivan III. Inside the Russian coat of arms is the coat of arms of Moscow. On it, on a red background, St. George the Victorious is depicted slaying a dragon with a spear. The coat of arms is the emblem of the state. It is depicted on stamps, passports, and banknotes.

What do the colors of our flag symbolize?
- Version 1: unity of sea, earth and sky.
- Version 2: the unity of the three Slavic peoples.

Young lawyer
Educational game on legal education for children of senior preschool age.
The proposed game helps preschoolers study and consolidate the legal foundations, fosters a respectful attitude towards human rights, develops a child’s sense of self-esteem, as well as a correct and fair view of life situations, and develops his emotional and personal qualities.
In modern society, legal education of citizens plays a huge role. Legal norms make it possible to streamline social relations and people's behavior. From the very first steps that a child takes independently, choosing methods of behavior, knowledge of the rules of law should help him. Our task is to give children this knowledge in a very correct, exciting, age-appropriate form.
The game “Young Lawyer” is educational and designed to help preschool teachers and parents organize joint activities for children to study legal principles. Has great pedagogical potential. The variability of the game helps to reach children of different ages and with different levels of knowledge.
Purpose of the game
- Create conditions for the development of children's positive sense of self, social skills and communicative behavior. Learn to distinguish between the concepts of “should”, “can”, “want”, and improve knowledge about social norms.
- To provide legal knowledge that helps broaden one’s horizons, develop self-esteem, awareness of one’s rights and freedoms, and a sense of responsibility.
- Foster a respectful attitude towards human rights and a desire to fulfill them.
- Develop the ability to perceive a schematic image and relate it to the real situation.
The game consists of three sets of cards that carry the same information, but are presented in different ways:
- Five cards with text information (text cards).
- Five cards with a schematic image (cardschemes).
- Twenty cards with colorful illustrative images of situations (situational cards).
Cards-schemes and text cards are divided into four sectors, each of which carries information about a specific right or obligation.
In the central part of these cards, a square is attached in such a way that it forms pocket corners into which you can insert corresponding situational pictures. All cards are in a box, colorfully decorated in accordance with the theme of the game. Number of participants: from 1 to 5 people (adult participation required).
Pedagogical possibilities of the game:
- Children learn to interact in a team.
- They receive information about rights and responsibilities and learn to distinguish between them.
- Have the opportunity to demonstrate their competence.
- Learn to set goals and achieve results.
- Bright colorful cards, clear, graphic and understandable schematic compositions, the correct font without unnecessary elements - all this allows children to easily navigate the course of the game, remember and compare different forms of presenting information.
Progress of the game
The leader is an adult, the participants are children.
Each participant in the game is given diagram cards or text cards (a guide to the child’s knowledge, skills and abilities). The adult offers the children story cards one by one. The child must correlate the plot of the card with the information located in the sectors of diagram cards or text cards. The child takes a card and inserts it into his pocket if the plot matches the information in one of the sectors. (In the process of recognizing the plot, the presenter can include various methodological techniques: role-playing dramatizations, exercises for the development of the emotional sphere, composing plot mini-stories and dialogues, logorhythmic and gaming exercises.) The game is considered complete if all the corner pockets are occupied by cards. At the end of the game, it is recommended to hold a “Feast of Law” in order to consolidate the knowledge acquired during the game.
Methodological recommendations for successful execution of the game
If your child has not yet learned to read, the game task is based on cards-schemes. The educational value of this version of the game is that children, by looking at a schematic image, learn to perceive the diagram and transfer it to a real image or situation.
In our complex world there are a huge variety of signs, patterns and symbols. They are everywhere - in the clinic, school, on the road, in the subway. They need to be understood when working with a computer and educational literature. Also, during the game, the main game task is realized - the legal education of the child.
Tip: Don't make your children sit at the table for a long time, sorting through game cards. Keep them active. Include physical exercises and logorhythmic exercises that correspond to the topic into the gameplay.
As for text cards, you can include them in the game if the child is already able to read and comprehend text information. I think that many adults will agree with me: the topic of law in itself does not have much appeal for children, so our task is to use such techniques, methods and methods of presentation so that it shines with new, bright and exciting facets.
While working with cards, integrate various educational areas: read fiction, listen to music recordings, compose short situational stories and dialogues based on the chosen plot. The topic of law can be presented in a very interesting and accessible way using the example of fairy tales:
- The right to housing can be traced in fairy tales: “Zayushkina’s hut”, “Rukavichka”, “Teremok”.
- The right to life is in fairy tales: “Geese-Swans”, “Sister Alyonushka and Brother Ivanushka”.
- Humane treatment of animals is in the fairy tale: “Grandfather Mazai and the Hares.”
And there are a lot of such examples, you just have to use your imagination.

Rules of the game: players must explain to children about rights, what rights of children have been violated.
Progress of the game:
Option 1.
2 or more children can play the game.
An adult reads an excerpt from a fairy tale, and child players name the fairy tale, find the corresponding illustration and explain to other children about their rights, which children’s rights have been violated.
The game ends when all the pictures have been examined and explained.
Didactic game “Let every child know that he has different rights”
Goal: to consolidate children’s knowledge about the rights to love and care, rest and leisure, nutritious nutrition, education and medical care.
Material: cube with illustrations of images of children's rights.
Rules of the game: players must explain the rights of the child that are shown in the picture.
Progress of the game:
Children stand in a circle. At the teacher’s signal, the children begin to pass the cube into each other’s hands.
When the signal sounds, the child who receives the cube looks at his picture and talks about the child’s right that is depicted on it.
The game continues until all illustrations have been reviewed.
Didactic game “Fold the flower”
Goal: to consolidate children’s knowledge about the great rights of a small child. Teach children to understand their capabilities when following certain rules and rights.
Foster a negative attitude towards manifestations of aggression, cruelty, and exploitation. Cultivate a desire to try to be fair.
Material: red and green circles depicting children’s faces, multi-colored petals on which are pasted pictures depicting the child’s rights to a good life or violation of them.
Rules of the game: players must place petals around the green circle, on which are pasted pictures depicting the rights of a child to a decent life, and around the red circle, place petals depicting a violation of the child’s right.
Progress of the game:
Two or more children can take part in the game.
Option 1.
2 circles (green and red) are placed in the middle of the table, and the petals are laid out on the table with an image facing the table.
Children take turns choosing a petal, examining it, and explaining whether the child’s right is being protected or violated.
If the petal depicts a picture protecting the rights of a child, it is placed around a green circle, and if the child’s rights are violated, then it is placed around a red circle.
The game ends when both flowers are completed.
Option 2.
Two children are playing. One child is asked to fold a flower, on the petals of which there are pictures depicting the protection of children’s rights, the second child – with images of violations of children’s rights.
The first player to make a flower wins.
Didactic game “Chain of rights of the child”
Goal: to consolidate children’s knowledge about the rights of a small child. Improve reading skills. Develop fine motor skills of the hands. Cultivate attention and visual perception.
Material: parts of the “chain”: on some there is a graphic representation of the rights of the child, on others there is a verbal explanation of the graphic images.
Rules of the game: after a verbal explanation of the rights of the child, kids select pictures with graphic images, explaining their content, forming a chain. And vice versa.
Progress of the game:
1 option
The teacher or child reads out a verbal explanation of the child's rights on one part of the chain. Children find the corresponding graphic image, connect it with a cord, and talk about the child’s right that is depicted on it.
Option 2:
Children select for themselves parts with a graphic depiction of the rights of the child and, with the help of the teacher, or independently find the appropriate verbal explanation. And they are connected with a cord.
The one who connects the chain faster wins.
Didactic game “We are future first-graders”
Goal: to achieve awareness of one’s own status and place in society for older children in kindergarten.
Bring children to the conclusion that they are older students in kindergarten.
To develop the ability to motivate one’s attitude towards the role of a future student.
Learn to list those actions that you have mastered well, and adequately evaluate your skills.
Material: six drawings depicting various types of motivation for a future student; six envelopes with a short story in which each of the motives appears as the personal position of one of the characters; cube with circles from 1 to 6.
Rules of the game: The player must explain his point of view of the image in the picture.
Progress of the game:
From 2 to 6 children can take part in the game.
Before the game starts, pictures depicting various types of motivation for the future student and six envelopes with short stories are laid out on the table.
Using a counting rhyme, they determine which child will start the game first.
The child throws a cube with circles and names a number that corresponds to the number of circles on the cube, then finds an envelope with the same number.
The adult takes the story out of the envelope and reads it, and a card with the same number is placed in front of the player. The child examines it and explains his point of view to other children about rights.
When all the card drawings have been reviewed, the game ends.
The winner is the player who correctly and thoroughly explains his point of view.

Legal education of preschool children in kindergarten
Even the smallest members of society have certain social rights that cannot be violated by anyone from their environment or more distant members of the social group.
Legal education of preschool children, carried out within the walls of a preschool educational institution, ensures healthy development of the individual during the formative period and gives children a sense of psychological security, which is very important under conditions of active development and adaptation.
Legal thinking is the basis of the future
Legal education is one of the components of moral education. A child’s lack of moral standards makes him unable to respect other people’s rights; any knowledge will be only formal. Kindergarten teachers have all the necessary opportunities to positively influence a maturing personality; it is the preschool period that is most important for its formation.
Timely legal education will allow adults to be confident in the future of their children: they will not allow themselves to be offended, and they will not infringe on the rights of others.
The main legal aspects of the preschool age period are the right to play, the care and love of surrounding adults, and protection from violence or humiliation. The atmosphere in which a little person grows should radiate kindness and love.
Every child has the right to a loving family and attention. Parents and teachers should provide assistance in becoming a full-fledged citizen.
Doe is a key participant in legal education
In order to give children the simplest knowledge about rights and freedoms, about what respect and tolerance are, it is important for the teacher not only to give children knowledge, but also to create conditions for them to apply it in practice. Kids need to practice certain actions, understand how this or that action looks from the outside, what emotions it evokes in others.
To explain important concepts, the teacher uses fairy tales, proverbs, and poetic works as examples.
However, when taking fairy tales as illustrative material to get acquainted with rights, they must be used very carefully, because they have a completely different scale for assessing the actions of the heroes.
The legal assessment system will distort children's perception of folklore and can lead to erroneous condemnation of positive characters and justification of negative characters.

The success of legal education largely depends on the teacher’s personal example, the ability to draw attention to the facts of life around them, create a cheerful environment, and strengthen children’s faith in goodness and justice.
Children should have confidence that they are reliably protected from evil and injustice.
Moral and legal education begins from the first days, when the child is just settling into the preschool walls. First, children learn to perceive positive deeds and negatively perceive bad ones.
Later, they develop a meaningful, critical attitude towards what is wrong or bad.
What to do if your child doesn't speak at age five
Lessons in the younger group
It is still difficult for the youngest to perceive the concepts contained in legal documents. At this stage, pedagogical work is aimed only at introducing children to the “legal world”; it is indirect in nature, learning takes place exclusively in a playful form.
In a lesson on legal education with children, materials from fairy tales can be used. Using the example of “The Three Bears,” you can give children an idea of what a family is and talk to them about respect between family members. The tale of the three little pigs is a field for discussions about the right to housing and the unlawful actions of the wolf.
Middle group
The further life self-determination of children depends on how legal education is organized in the classroom. During training, they develop the ability to behave adequately in conflict situations. At a younger age, children are just learning to focus on moral standards; closer to school, they already observe them and can explain the meaning.
When organizing events, which can be competitions, quizzes, trips through fairy tales, the main task is entertainment . Along with pleasure and joyful emotions, children simultaneously gain knowledge in the legal field. Outdoor games, music and dancing will help a lot here.
Activities in the senior group
In classes, teachers form in children an idea of the law and its significance, of how the state works.
With older preschoolers, role-playing games, conversations, and quizzes are held, where they are active, thinking participants ; using the example of a person’s various actions, they can explain whether he is doing bad or good, what are their ideas about how a citizen of a legal state should act.
During conversations about laws and why they are needed, children consistently come to the conclusion that any country needs certain mechanisms that will regulate relationships between people, all members of society must be protected by laws, the implementation of which must also be monitored by someone .

“Legal education of preschool children”
Key tasks of legal education of preschool children
Legal education in a preschool institution is aimed at achieving the following objectives.
- Give children an idea of their own rights and responsibilities.
- Teach them to evaluate their behavior and the actions of other people in accordance with legal norms.
- Learn to resolve conflicts in normative ways, taking into account the positions and needs of those around you.
- To cultivate in children such personal qualities as activity and initiative, independence and politeness, respect for other people.
- Develop in children an interest in themselves, in their own inner world; this will later transform into the need for self-improvement.
- Familiarity with the basic legal documents that coordinate relations between people (including international ones).
In general, the process of preschool legal education includes the following components:
- informational and educational;
- emotional-evaluative;
- behavioral-activity.
It is advisable to start mastering the legal space from the middle preschool level.
At this age (four to five years), the main attention should be paid to moral education. The teacher lays the foundations of legal behavior in the children’s minds: what to do and what not to do, helps them understand what actions bring harm to the person himself and the people around him.
With the help of the teacher, the children realize their uniqueness, the value of their own life, their family, and understand the most important needs.
Older preschoolers are already quite capable of managing their own behavior, making volitional efforts to achieve their goals, and understanding ethical standards. They are interested in relationships not only between individuals, but also entire nations, and normative legal acts (of course, the teacher presents them in an extremely accessible, engaging form).
Methods and means of successfully mastering legal concepts
When implementing the process of legal education in a preschool institution, the teacher uses various methods, means and forms of activity.
- Inclusion of a game component into the lesson. Fairy-tale characters or animals come to children and they help them solve a problem. The hero can tell them an amazing story (Pinocchio complains that Papa Carlo does not want to buy him the ABC). A character can be cross-cutting in all law classes: for example, he is a little man who finds himself in various situations.
- The basic principle of legal education is knowledge of social norms based on specific examples and actions. These are real life situations, as well as material from fiction, in particular fairy tales (a good option is fairy-tale videos).
- Solving problem situations, including fictitious ones. For example, what would you ask a goldfish for all people, or what would you do if you found a seven-flowered flower?
- Observation method. The teacher invites preschoolers to observe how loved ones treat each other, whether they forgive mutual insults, what may please and upset them (of course, the easiest way to do this is at the family level, watching mom and dad).
- Dramatization method. Allows children to “feel” another person, to enter into his position (for example, if I were a bunny who was kicked out of the hut by a fox, or Cinderella, whose stepmother does not allow her to rest). This technique fosters sensitivity in children and the ability to react more sharply to the problems of people around them.
- Problem-search method. This is solving riddles, in the senior preschool level - solving crosswords and puzzles.
- Productive activity. Collective creation of albums and posters, production of emblems and symbols (pupils of the senior and preparatory groups can make cards for didactic games themselves).
- The teacher, together with the children, can periodically organize exhibitions of favorite things (toys, books, drawings of a favorite dish, etc.) in the group. When selecting exhibits, the children are reinforced with the concept that each person has his own personal belongings and values them. These subjects and hobbies require careful, respectful treatment from others. Each student is asked to talk about their exhibit and explain why they like it so much.
- The developmental environment in the group must meet the principles of democracy: each member of the children's group has free access to all toys and aids.
- Since legal concepts are quite complex for preschoolers, maximum visual aids should be present in classes: various pictures, posters, diagrams, etc.
Games for legal education in kindergarten
A universal means of creating a legal space in a preschool educational institution is a game.
It helps the preschooler to get to know the surrounding social world, master the skills of legal communication and behavior, and gain personal experience. Games on this topic can be of various types: verbal, didactic, board games, role-playing games, imagination games, active games, dramatization games, travel games (for example, around the globe).
Let's look at specific examples.
Word games
One of the easiest legal concepts for a child is the right to a name. There are many word games you can come up with on this topic.
An element of mobility will help make them more exciting - for example, using a ball or a flag, which the children pass to each other after the answer.
- “Call me kindly.” The student says his name, and then tells how his parents affectionately call him at home. In each case there may be not one, but several options. For each answer, the teacher gives a chip, and at the end of the game the results are summed up - the winning name is determined.
- “Call me kindly.” A similar game, only the preschooler must give a diminutive name to the child standing next to him (thus, knowledge of the right to a name is consolidated and a polite, respectful attitude towards each other is fostered).
- “How a name grows.” First, the teacher shows the children her childhood photos and tells how her name has changed over the years (for example, Irishka - Ira - Irina - Irina Petrovna). Then the guys also have to modify their name - determine how it will sound when they become adults.
- “What are the names of my mom and dad?” Passing a ball or a flag to each other, preschoolers must quickly say the first and middle names of their parents.
Games to consolidate other rights
- “Who lives in which house” (the right to housing, as well as its inviolability). The teacher throws a ball to each child, naming an animal or insect, and the preschooler must respond by naming its home (for example, a bee is a hive, a bear is a den, etc.).
- “Who lives where” (the right of peoples to self-determination). The teacher names a country for the pupil, and he names its inhabitants (France - French, Japan - Japanese, etc.).
- “My home address” (right to housing). The guys take turns (passing the flag around) name their home address. Alternatively, you can first tell everyone only the street, then the house, floor, apartment number.
- “Let's get to know each other better” (a game exercise helps preschoolers realize the individuality and value of each person, as well as comprehend the similarities and differences of different people). Children move freely around the group to the music. When it calms down, you need to pair up with someone and ask a question. For example, “Do you have a brother or sister, and what is their name?”, “Your favorite color (dish, season, clothing, etc.), “How do you like to spend your free time?” etc. During the game, the teacher makes sure that the children create new pairs each time.
- “I can” (preschoolers consolidate their understanding of the right to life, realize that it is given to a person for good deeds). Standing in a circle, the kids pass each other a ball and tell each other what good deeds they do towards their loved ones (for example, helping mom clean the house, and helping dad in the garage).
Dramatization and imagination games
In the process of such activities, the teacher asks preschoolers to act out a short scene - to reproduce a certain situation from life or a fairy tale (at the same time they will consolidate legal knowledge), or to come up with their own story.
- “Ask politely” (the right to own property and its inviolability). The child is invited to ask a friend to borrow his toy. This must be done politely; in return, you can offer to play with your item.
- “A fairy tale inside out” (everyone has the right to their personal opinion). This is a tabletop or puppet theater based on a familiar fairy tale. Preschoolers can come up with their own version with changed characters and act it out. The plots can be the most unexpected. For example, the bun will be evil and wants to poison the forest inhabitants, while the fox, on the contrary, will be kind and strives to save them. Or the good wolf and the angry Little Red Riding Hood.
- “The fairy tale goes in circles” (the right to have your own opinion and freely express your thoughts). Preschoolers all come up with a fairy tale together: one starts it, and the rest take turns composing a continuation.
- The teacher suggests closing your eyes and imagining yourself, for example, as a small insect. Children should feel the defenselessness of this creature, talk about their feelings and how to behave to others so that the insect is confident in its safety. In this way, the children reinforce their understanding of the right to life and its inviolability.
- “My dream kindergarten.” The teacher gives the children a task - to come up with their own kindergarten, in which there would be no usual rules (classes, daily routine, etc.) and come up with their own, tell what the children will do there. After listening to several stories, the teacher leads the kids to conclusions about how such behavior can end and why order must be maintained in any society.
Board-printed games
There are also printed board games for preschoolers on legal topics. Basically, they are pictures from the series “Doing the right thing,” “Good and bad,” etc. These can be pairs of cards (10–20 pieces) dedicated to the same topic (one depicts a good deed, the other a bad one) or lotto.
It will also be interesting for the children to trace the consequences of each action. For example, he made a bird feeder and poured grains there - the birds will not starve in the winter, grabbed a cat by the tail - it hurts, etc. The main conclusion that preschoolers should make is that no one has the right to offend another, punish him, or hurt him.
Outdoor games
Preschoolers love outdoor games; they can be combined with easy learning of important legal concepts.
- “Walk along the stream” (everyone’s right to rest, to be able to relax together). A stream is depicted on the floor, its width varies (using ropes or cut out of wallpaper). Children (these are tourists) become a “train” (hands are placed on the shoulders of the person walking in front) and as they move, they spread their legs to the desired width. A child who stumbles is sent to the end of the “locomotive”.
- “Rescuers” (reinforcing the right to life). Toys are placed in the hoop: they ended up on a desert island or in a burning house. The teacher gives tasks to get to the hoop and save the toys one by one. Each time, children move in different ways (you can hold a relay race between two teams with two hoops): “spider,” in pairs, holding hands, with eyes closed, etc.
- Pantomime “I help my parents around the house” (reinforcing the concept of responsibilities). A preschooler uses body movements to show how he does some housework. And the rest of the guys have to guess what exactly is meant.
- The teacher explains that fighting is not good (this is a violation of the right to personal integrity), and invites preschoolers to channel negative emotions into the game “Cockfighting.” Two participants become “roosters” - they squat down and clasp their knees with their hands, pushing each other sideways. The one who falls first or removes his hands from his knees loses.
Role-playing games
Role-playing play plays an important role in the development of friendly relationships among preschoolers and their awareness of legal relations, since it is very close to real life. Thus, by playing out such scenes as “Hospital”, “Polyclinic”, “Pharmacy”, “Ambulance”, kids reinforce the knowledge that every person has the right to medical care, and must also take care of their own health).
The game “Rescuers” fosters important moral qualities: the children understand the value of human life and the fact that every person has the right to help and salvation in a difficult situation. Legal education is also facilitated by modeling scenes from family life (“Family”, “Mothers and Daughters”): preschoolers understand that everyone has certain responsibilities at home, and adults are responsible for their children.
Types of activities in legal education classes
Legal education classes are usually held in preschool educational institutions once a month in senior preschool age (at the middle level - much less often, two to three times a year, since they are of an introductory nature) as part of educational activities to understand the world around us (block “Socialization” ). However, preschoolers best master the legal space through concrete examples and their own experience. Therefore, such work is closely related to search-experimental and communicative activities.
Reading fiction that touches on legal topics, in particular, turning to Russian and foreign fairy tales, is of great educational importance. After all, many of them clearly demonstrate how this or that right is violated. Let's give specific examples.
- "Cat, fox and rooster." The fox violated the rooster's right to personal integrity.
- "Zayushkina's hut." A gross invasion of privacy, the right to inviolability of the hare’s home was violated. A similar situation can be found in the fairy tales “Teremok”, “The Three Little Pigs”, “Winter Hut of Animals”.
- “Geese and Swans”, “The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats”, “Little Red Riding Hood”, “Kolobok”. Violation of the right to life and freedom of characters.
- "Masha and the Bear". Restriction of human freedom, keeping him in captivity.
- Using the example of the literary fairy tale “Aibolit,” you can explain to preschoolers that everyone has the right to count on medical care and assistance, and in connection with the fairy tale “Buratino,” you can tell the preschooler about the right to education.
Comprehensive and integrated classes on the topic of law can also include productive activities.
For example, after the teacher talks about the symbols of countries, older preschoolers are asked to draw the flag and coat of arms of their country. After a conversation about the rights and responsibilities of family members, the children can draw a story picture “How I help my parents at home.”
Subjects of classes
Since legal education classes are not held so often in preschool educational institutions, their topics will not be too diverse. We can highlight the main topics that the teacher should introduce children to.
In the middle group, when preschoolers are just beginning to become familiar with the legal field, the following topics can be considered.
- “My rights and responsibilities” (everyone, even small children, has their own rights and responsibilities).
- “Me and my name” (“The right to a name”, “Everyone is given a name, it means a lot”).
In the senior preschool level, the topics are more extensive. These topics are studied in more depth and new ones are added.
- “My country” (each country has its own laws and rules that all citizens must comply with).
- “We are citizens” (“We are different, but we have the same rights”).
- Familiarity with the most important legal documents: “Constitution”, “Declaration of Human Rights” and “Convention on the Rights of the Child” (of course, at an extremely accessible level).
- “The right to have a family” (“The right to love and care”).
- "Right to Housing".
- "Right to property."
- "Right to freedom and equality"
- “The right to rest, play, entertainment.”
- The final lesson can be designated as “Journey to the country of Pravdiviya” (or Pravoznaykino, etc.)
Motivating start to a lesson on legal education
Since legal concepts are quite complex for preschoolers, the teacher’s task is to interest children in cognitive activities as much as possible.
Exciting motivation is very important here. For example, the teacher invites the children to go to the extraordinary Land of Names. Every child can turn into a trailer - to do this, you need to give your name.
Another example. The teacher tells the preschoolers that he wants to introduce them to a wonderful book called “The Rights of the Child.” But then the evil Baba Yaga appears (it could be a toy), who takes the book and leaves (says that the children are still too young to study it). Thus, children's interest in the book increases, and they set off in the footsteps of Baba Yaga to return what was lost, quietly mastering important concepts along the way.
Guys always love to help the weak, while feeling their importance. In this regard, you can think about the appropriate motivation. A little man, Kiryusha, appears in the group. In the country from which he came, big and small people live. Big ones are always serious, busy, and often talk about their rights. But everyone is silent about the rights of little people, as if they don’t exist at all. Preschoolers will be happy to introduce Kiryusha to the main international document “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights”: he will learn that people’s rights do not depend on their external characteristics, for example, height.
This option would also work: sad Pinocchio comes to visit the preschoolers. He is worried that he will not be accepted into school, but he so wants to study. The teacher informs the character that they will definitely take him to school, because there is a special right - to education, so that everyone who wants can study.
The teacher can use his imagination and come up with a whole fairy-tale story about the fictional country of Pravdilia. People and animals, plants and insects lived happily here. Everyone had different rights: to life, freedom, happiness, rest, etc. There was a wonderful garden in the country that everyone protected, because the “flower of Happiness” grew there: all the rights were written on its petals.
But then one day a black cloud and an evil wind came, and the inhabitants of the country hid to wait out the bad weather. And when it was all over, they were surprised to see that there was not a single petal on the “flower of Happiness”. And terrible times came in Pravdivia - a nightmare and confusion, because no one now knew their rights. Residents are always looking for the treasured petals and hope that someone will help them, for example, kindergarten students. And by helping to find the loss, preschoolers will at the same time become familiar with basic rights (after all, in our country they are exactly the same).
Working with parents on legal education
Instilling in his students the basics of legal consciousness, the teacher must work closely with their parents.
After all, many families experience significant difficulties in raising children - they do not know how to behave in certain situations (disobedience, aggression, child passivity, etc.). Some adults use an authoritarian communication style when communicating with their son or daughter, intimidate them, show excessive severity, and even practice corporal punishment. Such parents usually do not attach importance to children's experiences, considering them pointless and without a serious reason. This situation is very dangerous for the mental development of the child and the formation of his personality.
As practice shows, in many families the legal culture is not at a high level.
And violation of the rights of a small child often becomes commonplace (we are not even talking about socially disadvantaged families). That is why the role of the educator becomes very important - it is he who should be involved in the legal education of parents.

- Parent meetings on this topic (for example, “Respecting the rights of the child in the family”).
- Design of the right corner for parents.
- Individual conversations.
- Visiting families.
- Regular oral and written consultations for parents.
Self-education of a teacher in legal education
The foundations of the legal culture of preschoolers can become a direction for the teacher’s self-education. The following topics may be considered.
- “Introducing a preschooler to the social world through legal education”
- “Tolerance and legal culture of preschool children.”
- “Didactic games as a means of developing legal consciousness”
- “The role of role-playing games in the legal education of a child.”
- “Project activity as a modern form of legal education in preschool educational institutions.”
- “The use of new educational technologies in the process of legal education of preschool children.”

Teacher:
I am glad to meet you. Today we will get acquainted with one wonderful book. It is called “The Rights of the Child” (shows). This wonderful book will tell you about children's rights.
Baba Yaga appears.
(can be a doll or role played by an adult)
Baba Yaga
(takes the book from the teacher), You still have the right to study little things!
And I will read this book. (goes to the area for outdoor games, hides behind his hut) Teacher:
Well, Baba Yaga! She took our book and was like that! What should we do now? (children's answers) That's right, let's catch up with her and return our book. Children and the teacher move to the area for outdoor games. Teacher (pointing to a house covered with a white cloth). Behind this snowy mountain, in the forest, Baba Yaga lives. It is difficult to get over the mountain, but magic clouds will help us. (points to the pillows). Hurry up and take off! (Children sit on the pillows) We will fly very quickly, so close your eyes so that they don’t water from the wind. Let's take off! Hold on tight to the clouds. Feel how fast we are flying! Now the mountain is behind us.
Turns on a tape recorder with a recording of bird voices.
Slowly increasing the volume. Removes fabric from Baba Yaga's house. Teacher. Do you hear? The birds are singing. We are approaching the forest. We open our eyes. We land in a clearing. Here is Baba Yaga's hut. (Children rise from the pillows and approach the house) Physical school In a deep forest there is a hut on chicken legs at the edge of the forest.
It stands two steps from the forest. Grandmother Yaga lives there. -Shall we knock? (Baba Yaga appears)
Baba Yaga.
Who are they?
Why did you come? I'm not expecting guests. Teacher (turns off the tape recorder). Oh Baba Yaga, how angry you are, what a rude voice you have and unfriendly words. You even scared the birds with your scream. Baba Yaga. Stop talking! Why did you come? (Children's answers) Teacher: Yes, Baba Yaga, we came to pick up our book that you stole from us. Baba Yaga. She didn’t steal anything from you, she just took it. You have no rights to this book. And only the children and grandchildren of Tsar Sultan and Nightingale the Robber can count on all the rights that are written in the book. And also children who believe in Baba Yaga and Koshchei the Immortal, and the same skin color as Baba Yaga and in whom you believe. So, Baba Yaga, you are wrong, give us back the book! Baba Yaga. Oh oh! How smart! Come on, come on! come to me here, you, number one. Teacher. Baba Yaga, why do you address children so strangely? After all, they have a name, each has its own. Baba Yaga.
Names?
Why give them names if the children are small and all the same? They'll make do with numbers. Teacher.
Do you agree that all children are the same?
(No) Prove it to Baba Yaga. (One child has black hair and blue eyes, he is tall and slow. The other child is fair-haired, brown-eyed, with freckles. He is very cheerful and dexterous. Etc.) Well, Baba Yaga, have we convinced you? Now do you agree that every child from the day he is born has the right to his own name? Didactic game “Everyone has rights” Finger gymnastics “Lonely Grandma Yozhka” Lonely Grandma Yozhka. Next to her are an owl and cats, And even chicken legs do not make her happy. Everyone is afraid of meeting her, They don’t want to sit in the oven. Granny thought about how to entice guests? If only she wouldn't hang out with the devil, she should go in for sports, and invite her neighbors to have some tea and cake. And then chicken legs would dance along the path, and both the owl and the cats would sing along with the guests. /TO. Strelnik/ Baba Yaga
.
Well, I admit that you have this right. Teacher.
Then let's introduce ourselves to Baba Yaga, and the echo will help us.
Sedentary game “Echo” Children stand in a circle, take turns saying their names and passing the ball to each other, the rest repeat them in chorus. Teacher.
Now, Baba Yaga, please return the book to us so that we can become acquainted with other children’s rights.
Baba Yaga.
I’ll return it if any of you have a mother who works in the library.
Teacher:
Why is that?
Baba Yaga:
Because only the children of librarians have the right to read books, only the children of builders can live in houses, and the children of doctors can receive treatment. Teacher: Well, you said it! Children, do you think it’s fair what Baba Yaga said? (Children's answers). Baba Yaga, every child has the right to a home, food, treatment and education. (Hands out tokens - symbols “Home”, “Treatment”, “Training”, Baba Yaga goes to her house)
Teacher.
For some reason I felt sorry for Baba Yaga.
Maybe she does bad things because no one loves her, no one cares about her. After all, everyone has the right to love and care. All of you have this right. No one even wished Baba Yaga a happy birthday. Let's do this. Let's collect the flower petals and give it to her. Outdoor game “Collect a flower”
They collect flowers and knock on the door of the hut. Baba Yaga comes out. The children congratulate her on her birthday and give her flowers. Baba Yaga is embarrassed and thanks. Teacher.
It's time for us to return.
Saddle up your clouds and let's fly home. Baba Yaga:
Wait! Take your book. I'm also capable of good deeds.
Teacher.
Thank you, Baba Yaga. Come visit us. We have many more interesting books and games. Goodbye! Baba Yaga. Goodbye! Thank you for the invitation, I will definitely come. Teacher. Everything is in place? Let's fly! Don't forget to close your eyes.
(He turns on a tape recorder with a recording of bird voices, throws a cloth over Baba Yaga’s house. Baba Yaga leaves.)
Did you enjoy the trip? What did you like most? (Children's answers). What rights did you learn about today? (Children’s answers based on tokens - symbols)
Well done, remember your rights. We will meet again in this book, which will introduce you to other rights. Thanks everyone. It was very pleasant and interesting for me to be with you.
