Progress of the meeting:

1.

: Dear moms and dads! I am very glad to see you at the first parent meeting, because I understand: without an alliance with children, without your support and help, raising and creating a cozy and joyful environment for them in kindergarten is an impossible task. What should our union be like, what can we, adults, do for children to make their life in the group joyful and interesting? This will be discussed specifically at this meeting.

Look, you and I are closely connected and solve the same problems. We are like a big family, we must act together. After all, we must not forget that the parent is the main educator, and the kindergarten was created to help parents. It often happens that parents of children of the same group, when meeting, do not even know each other. And this really interferes with communication. Therefore, I invite everyone to get acquainted. To do this, we will play one simple but very important game “ Let's get to know each other .”

Rules: Tell us about yourself.

Give your neighbor a hand

And give me a smile.

Invite all parents to stand in a circle. The teacher starts the game. Talks about himself: introduces himself, talks about his interests. Having finished his story, the teacher takes the hand of the parent standing next to him, thereby passing the baton to him. Further in a circle until everyone tells about themselves. At the end of the game, a closed circle is formed, that is, everyone present holds hands.

Educator: a closed circle and tightly clasped hands symbolize that we are united by one goal - raising children and helping them at a new stage in their lives.

2. I invited you to a meeting in kindergarten.

We really need to become allies with you.

We will discuss various issues

And together we will help our children. We will listen to your wishes,

We will tell you in detail about children's education.

Today we have gathered to solve one issue,

What should I do to get my child used to kindergarten?

Adaptation of a child to kindergarten. Advice from a psychologist.

Where does kindergarten begin? Oddly enough, kindergarten begins with parting, with mother and baby saying goodbye, from the moment when he is left alone with someone else’s aunt and unfamiliar children. Therefore, we, parents, need to prepare both ourselves and the child for this difficult test.

Let's start with ourselves. The fact that the baby cries and does not want to let go of his mother’s hand is often your own fault. We feel very sorry for him, in our minds we paint sad pictures: he’s crying, he’s not playing with anyone, and so on. Stop! Be positive about yourself, even if your own experience at kindergarten was less than positive. In the end, kindergarten is a necessary “school” of life, and in it, as in life, there will be both joyful and sad moments.

Undeniable advantages

The main advantage of kindergarten is that the child gets the opportunity to communicate with peers. He doesn't just play, he gains invaluable experience of interaction, sympathy, empathy, collective creativity and cooperation. All this prepares the child for later life. It is at this time that character is formed and the basic principles of life are laid.

Inevitable disadvantages

In addition to positive communication experiences, the child also receives negative patterns of behavior: some children learn to lie and suck up, others to command and point, and others to obey. A small person simply cannot stand 10 hours of extreme stress. He becomes aggressive, irritable, whiny. As a result of such overexertion, the child becomes ill. Frequent colds are an inevitable companion for a kindergarten child.

Of course, it would be ideal to bring a child aged 4-5 years to kindergarten for half a day. But, unfortunately, few working mothers today can afford this.

Getting ready for the first day

Tell your child about the kindergarten, that there are a lot of children there, new toys, swings, etc. If possible, go there, play on the playground, meet the teacher. Create a mood of joyful anticipation in your baby. At the same time, prepare him for the upcoming separation: practice short separations (to the store, to work). Come up with your own farewell ritual. The child must be sure that you always come back! In the first days, spend some time with him in kindergarten, do not leave immediately. And when parting, be sure to say that you will return for him. As a rule, many children get used to new conditions after a few days.

Before entering kindergarten, it is important to develop a child’s sense of self-confidence, and this is impossible without developing independence. Observe your baby to see if he can dress himself, sit on the potty, eat, and play. Help him learn all these things.. Of course, all children are different. A sociable and smiling child in kindergarten may turn out to be silent. It is impossible to unambiguously predict what a child’s reaction will be and how this difficult period in his life will turn out.

How soon will the child get used to kindergarten?

The average period of adaptation to kindergarten, according to experts, is 7-10 days at a toddler age, 2-3 weeks at a 3-year-old age, and 1 month at a senior preschool age.

Why do children get sick so often in kindergarten?

In addition to psychological preparation, your baby must be physically prepared for this difficult test. Each child must undergo a medical examination and tests before attending kindergarten. So. The pediatrician has given you a conclusion that your child is ready to attend kindergarten. Great! But this does not mean that the baby will not get sick. All mothers are interested in the answer to the same question: “Why do children get sick so often?” Why they get sick is understandable. The child's body encounters unfamiliar bacteria and viruses. The immune system is being formed, and this process is accompanied by ARVI and runny nose. Thus, “training” of the immune system occurs. But why does this happen so often? Psychologists answer this question. Adaptation is usually difficult with a lot of negative changes in the child’s body. These shifts occur at all levels, in all systems. The baby is in a special state, which psychologists call the “third state” between health and illness. This means that not today, tomorrow your child will either just really get sick or become himself again. It all depends on the severity of stress. If it is minimal, you will soon forget about the negative changes in the adaptation process and what worries you today. This will indicate easy or favorable adaptation. If the stress level is great, the child will obviously have a breakdown and will likely become ill.

How to strengthen a child's defenses?

The best way to avoid numerous colds during the period of adaptation to kindergarten is hardening. It is best to start hardening procedures in the summer. The easiest way to do this is: let the baby spend more time in the fresh air, let the child walk barefoot at home, wash dishes, play with water. When going for a walk, dress according to the weather.

Psychologists advise parents during the period of child adaptation to kindergarten:

1. Set the child in a positive mood. Instill in him that it is very cool that he has grown to the garden and become so big. 2. Do not leave him in the preschool group for the whole day, take him home as early as possible. 3. Create a calm, conflict-free climate for him in the family. 4. Spare his weakened nervous system. 5. Do not increase, but decrease the load on the nervous system. Reduce television viewing. 6. As early as possible, inform the doctor and teachers about the baby’s personal characteristics. 7. Do not wrap your child up, but dress him as necessary in accordance with the temperature in the group. 8. Create a routine for him on Sundays at home the same as in a child care facility. 9. Do not react to the child’s antics and do not punish him for his childish whims.

10. If a change in the child’s usual behavior is detected, contact a pediatrician or psychologist as soon as possible.

In conclusion, I would like to say to all parents: your love will help your child get through this difficult time. Let your baby feel that he is the most precious creature in the world to you, and don’t let him doubt it for a minute.

4. “Internal regulations”

Today I would like to tell you the main organizational issues and internal regulations that are relevant today. Please listen to this information carefully, and at the end of the conversation we will answer all your questions

Let's start with the fact that you need to try to bring your children to kindergarten no later than 08.00 in the morning. And not because it’s so convenient for us, but because our children need it first and foremost. Because We do exercises at 8.00 in the morning, during which the children actively move, run, jump, they get in the mood and have an appetite. And, most likely, these children will eat breakfast with greater appetite than those who were brought into the group during breakfast, and they have not yet had time to get used to the morning environment and sit gloomily, pushing away the plate of porridge and tea. And when our children have a good appetite, then you are happy, and we are happy. And, in general, try to stick to the regime day after day. Even on weekends, do not deviate too much from the daily routine, do not let your children sleep for a long time, or go to bed late, because... at the beginning of the week it will be more difficult for them to adjust to their normal routine. If for some reason you did not bring your child before 8.00 in the morning or plan to bring him later, then please inform us before 8.00 about the reasons for the absence.

The next, no less important, moment is to bring your child to kindergarten healthy! If your child is unwell, you must leave him at home, call a doctor, and, now healthy, bring him with a certificate. If for other reasons you did not bring your child for up to five days, you can bring him without a certificate. If more than five days, then, of course, with a certificate.

It happens that a child’s t rises while he is in a group. In this case, we inform you, you pick it up and bring it, of course, with a certificate.

Now - about clothes. You need to bring your baby in comfortable clothes with comfortable fasteners. Be sure to have spare underwear every day (the amount depends on the individual characteristics of the baby). It is also advisable to bring spare T-shirts or blouses in case the baby wets himself while eating. Or you can bring a bib.

It's cold outside now. We will go for walks. A big request: tie scarves for children and wear not gloves (very difficult to put on!), but mittens with elastic so they don’t get lost.

Do not give children in kindergarten small toys (from Kinder Surprise), small rubber bands. Children can stick them up their nose or put them in their mouth and choke. Also, do not give chewing gum, because... may choke or stick to hair.

Everyone needs to bring paper tissues and wet wipes. And girls must bring a comb to their locker.

Another request is not to say goodbye to the baby for a long time in the group. The longer you say goodbye, the more they become capricious and cry.

I would like to add something else that will be needed:

— pay kindergarten fees on time by the 15th of each month;

- take part in the work of the parent committee, which we will now choose.

4. Elections of the parent committee.

5.Theatricalization of the fairy tale “Teddy bear in kindergarten”

To better understand your children, I suggest playing a fairy tale.

I suggest you play a fairy tale.

Distribution of roles: day, sun, two clouds, Mother Bear, Mishutka, a ray of sunshine, teacher, two - three children.

Theatricalization of the fairy tale “Teddy bear in kindergarten”.
( The teacher reads the text, parents role-play the described actions).
It was a warm summer day. The bright sun was shining, cheerful clouds were playing catch-up in the sky. A little mischievous ray of light looked into Mishutka’s nursery, stroked his head, his cheek, and then it tickled him! Mishka woke up, stretched, and then Mother Bear came: “Good morning, son!” Mom helped Mishutka put on the clothes she had prepared the night before, fed her a light breakfast and said that today Mishutka would have to go to kindergarten. The little bear knew what it was, his mother had been telling him about the kindergarten for a long time, they even went together to see where it was, walked on the playground with other children, so Misha was not particularly upset, on the contrary, he wanted to quickly get into this amazing, bright world. But as soon as Mishutka entered the kindergarten, he felt that his mother was worried, and some strange uneasy feeling came over him. The bear kissed Mishka, said that she would return soon, and then somehow very quickly disappeared. The baby was confused, he immediately wanted to cry, but then a very sweet and kind aunt came up to him. She invited him to see the toys and even allowed him to play with them. Mishutka was confused again. There were so many bright and beautiful toys on the shelves! And a new construction set, something Misha didn’t even have at home! And a wind-up little train, and many different cars, and also cubes, dishes... Mishka wanted to touch everything - everything. Strange kids walked around and distracted Mishutka a little, but the same auntie patted the baby on the head and gave him a lot of bright pencils and an album. How fun it was to draw the sun and grass and clouds in the sky with her! The rain began to cry outside the window. Misha, too, suddenly felt sad, and he also wanted to cry, but then the aunt took him in her arms, sat him on her lap and began to read a funny book. What colorful pictures there were in it, and how interestingly the dear aunt read, changed her voices, sang songs. It wasn't scary at all with her, it was even good. Mishutka liked her more and more, there were beautiful buttons on her blouse, and her auntie smiled all the time. “It turns out that this is the teacher, that’s what another aunt said, what a difficult word...” thought Mishka. It was easier for him to call her mom, especially since she is as good as mom. When thinking about her mother, tears welled up in Mishutka’s eyes. The teacher asked: “What are you doing, Mishenka?” and took him to wash his hands, and then sat him down at the table. How delicious the porridge turned out to be! Then there was absolutely no time to be bored. Together with all the children, the bear danced, built a long fence for the horse, then walked and swung on a swing. And all the time his second mother was nearby, helping him to climb, dismount, and stand up. Mishutka felt that he was tired. The teacher took everyone to the kindergarten to wash their hands. Then there was a very tasty lunch. And how I wanted to sleep! Immediately the teacher put Mishka in a soft crib and stroked him on the head. His eyes began to close on their own, and when Mishka woke up, his mother was already waiting for him at the door. And everything was fine, Mishutka thought that he would definitely come to his new home to play with his new friends.

6.Game “Twinkle of Good Hopes”

Dear parents!

And now we invite you to stand in a circle and play another game called “The Light of Good Hopes.” You need to say how you would like to see your child at the end of the school year, what are your expectations from visiting kindergarten, and whether we will meet your expectations.

This candle in a child’s life is parents and teachers. It is you and I who must ignite in the hearts of children the fire of desire to understand this world, to want to change it, to make ourselves and those around us better.

WORKING WITH PARENTS DURING THE PERIOD OF CHILDREN’S ADAPTATION TO KINDERGARTEN

Advertising message

In this article we will talk about the work done and upcoming work to facilitate the process of adaptation of children of the first junior group “Semitsvetiki” to kindergarten through working with parents.

As you know, adaptation is the process of a preschooler entering a new environment, his ability to adapt to the conditions in which he finds himself. Increasing the child's adaptive capabilities and enriching his social contacts are very important for the formation of the child's personality.

We interact with parents based on the following principles:

• Consistency, clear focus and planning;
• A differentiated approach to interaction with parents;
• Age-related nature of interaction with parents;
• Openness and friendliness.

Adaptation is a long process that includes two large stages, each of which has its own goals and objectives.

In our kindergarten, comprehensive work is carried out with children from the adaptation group to ensure competent and smooth passage of the process of adaptation of children to the conditions of the kindergarten. It includes several areas - “children - educators - parents - teachers” . For this purpose, a set of measures was carried out to support the family at the stage of preparation for admission to a preschool educational institution and the process of adaptation of the child.”

The interaction of the psychologist and educators with parents began even before the child entered kindergarten and began with an initial joint review of the medical records of each child. A schedule for the reception of children was developed. Consultations and recommendations were drawn up to help educators facilitate the process of adaptation of children in kindergarten. And:

1. Creating a traveling folder “The child goes to kindergarten” with recommendations for parents whose children are starting to attend kindergarten for the first time.
2. Creation of booklets with brief recommendations that parents can take with them and read at home.
3. Conducting a tour of the kindergarten and presentation of all premises.
4. Conducting a survey of parents for initial acquaintance with children.
5. Conducting testing to determine the child’s readiness to enter kindergarten.
6. Conducting a parent meeting on the topic “Adaptation of a young child to kindergarten.”
7. Conducting individual and group counseling for parents of pupils in the first junior group.

The first stage is preparatory . It began with the first meeting of parents with teachers, which was held even before the children entered the group. At this meeting, parents got acquainted with the preschool educational institution, with the staff of the group, the head and teachers told them about the current tasks and traditions of the institution. They showed how to work with the preschool educational institution website, where parents can get the information they need about the plan of activities for newly admitted children in the preschool educational institution: master classes, consultations, conversations, trainings, workshops. Our work with parents is aimed at developing their pedagogical competence, helping families find answers to their questions about raising children, and attracting parents to cooperate in finding common approaches to upbringing. A tour of the premises of the preschool educational institution was conducted. We also carried out joint work with parents to create optimal conditions for the development of the child, both in the group and at the kindergarten site: creating new games, play equipment, participating in painting and repairing old equipment, decorating the group veranda, which helped parents meet friends with a friend and with teachers and contributed to the unity of the parent team.

The second stage of the adaptation period is the admission of children to the group . For this purpose, a parent meeting was held on the topic: “Adaptation of young children to kindergarten.” Before the meeting, parents were asked to fill out introductory questionnaires. The main task of which was the collection, processing and use of data about the family of each pupil, the general cultural level of his parents, the presence of the necessary pedagogical knowledge, the attitude of the family towards the child, the requests, interests, needs of parents for psychological and pedagogical information.

Next we held a parent meeting.

PROGRESS OF THE MEETING.

1. Acquaintance.

Good evening, dear parents! We are glad to see you at our meeting, at the first parent meeting. Today we have gathered to get acquainted and also to discuss the important problem of a child’s adaptation to kindergarten. First, let's get acquainted. And the ball will help us get to know each other.

I pass the ball to you, you introduce yourself, say whose parents you are and a few words about your family or child and pass the ball on.

We have met and now, with a good mood, we move on to important issues.

Adaptation of a child to kindergarten.

Enrolling a child in kindergarten is the first step into independent life, which is not easy for all children. Our task is to make sure that the adaptation period is painless for the child.

1. Introduction.

Currently, many parents send their children to nursery very early, not realizing how difficult it is for some children to go through a new stage in their lives. Separation from home and loved ones, meeting new adults and unfamiliar children of their own kind can become psychological trauma for a child. It is very important that the transition from home to kindergarten is smooth, soft, and non-traumatic.

1. Main theme.

Adaptation is the process of a person entering a new environment for him and adapting to its conditions at different levels: physiological, psychological.

Levels of adaptation:

• Mild (short-term) – two to four weeks
• Average - four to six weeks.
• Severe (long-term) - more than six weeks, can last up to six to nine months.

Negative results (stress).

At the age of 1-3 years, a child has a number of specific age-specific capabilities. This period is characterized by special sensitivity to separation from the mother and fear of novelty.

Therefore, entering kindergarten often causes stress for a child. This is due to the fact that not only the daily routine, familiar from birth, changes radically, but also the child’s environment, and a large number of unfamiliar people appear. After all, stress always inhibits development, both physiologically and psychologically. For many children, the adaptation process is accompanied by a number of, albeit temporary, serious disturbances in behavior and general condition. Such violations include:

• loss of appetite (refusal to eat or malnutrition);
• sleep disturbance (children cannot fall asleep, sleep is short-term, intermittent);
• the emotional state changes (children cry a lot, get irritated).

Sometimes deeper disorders can be noted:

• increased body temperature, blood pressure;
• decreased immunity;
• changes in stool character;
• violation of some acquired skills (the child stops asking to go to the potty, his speech is inhibited, etc.).

The child experiences fear, grief, anger, tears, which are the causes of neurological problems - neuroses, depression, which may remain in the future, and in adulthood result in a number of phobias and complexes. Therefore, it is very important that the adaptation period proceeds smoothly: starting from 2-3 hours, increasing to a “whole” day.

To avoid these complications and ensure optimal adaptation, it is necessary to prepare the child, both at the physiological level and at the psychological level. The adaptation period can last from 3-4 weeks to 6-9 months. Parents should take this into account when sending their child to a preschool educational institution.

The physiological level of adaptation depends on the general physiological state of the child (health, immunity, lifestyle, dietary preferences).

We need to get used to:

1. Impossibility of privacy:
2. New food, new rooms, lighting, smells;
3. New regime, rhythm of life, new loads (you need to sit, listen, fulfill the demands of adults)
4. The need for self-restraint.

Psychological level of adaptation.

You have to get used to:

1. A large number of new people and the need to interact with them;
2. The need to defend your personal space;
3. To the absence of a significant adult (mom, dad);
4. The need to deal with your problems alone.

The body’s adaptation to new conditions of social existence, a new regime is accompanied by changes in the child’s behavioral reactions, sleep disorders, and appetite.

Factors on which the course of adaptation depends:

1. child's age;
2. health status;
3. health level;
4. ability to communicate with peers;
5. formation of object and game activities;
6. the proximity of the home regime to the preschool regime.

The question arises: should the child stay in kindergarten; it is possible that he is a “non-kindergarten” child.

Parents, when sending their son or daughter to a preschool institution, often encounter difficulties and are not ready to overcome them themselves.

Let's look at common mistakes and ways to overcome them .

1. Parents' unpreparedness for a child's negative reaction to preschool . Parents are frightened by the child’s tearfulness and are confused, because at home the child agreed to go to kindergarten. We must remember that this is the baby’s first experience; he could not imagine in advance the full picture that tearfulness is a normal state of a child during the period of adaptation to a preschool educational institution. With the patience of adults, it can go away on its own.
2. Often the mistake of parents is to blame and punish the child for crying . This is not a way out of the situation. All you need is patience and help. All your baby needs is to adapt to new conditions.
3. Another mistake parents make is being in a state of concern and anxiety . First of all, you need to calm down. Children instantly sense when their parents are worried. This condition is passed on to children. You should avoid talking about your baby's tears with other family members in his presence. It seems that the son or daughter is still small and does not understand adult conversations. But children, on a subtle emotional level, feel their mother’s concern, and this further intensifies the child’s anxiety.
4. Reduced attention to the child is also a typical mistake of parents. Satisfied with the work of the preschool educational institution, some mothers breathe a sigh of relief and no longer pay as much attention to the baby as before. It is recommended, on the contrary, to spend as much time as possible with the child during this period of his life.

When a child starts talking cheerfully about kindergarten, reading poetry, and retelling the events that happened during the day, this is a sure sign that he has settled down.

FIRST SIGNS THAT THE CHILD HAS ADAPTED:

• a good appetite;
• restful sleep;
• willing communication with other children;
• adequate reaction to any proposal from the teacher;
• normal emotional state.

It is difficult to say how long the adaptation period will last, because all children go through it differently. But getting used to kindergarten is also a test for parents, an indicator of how ready they are to support the child and help him overcome difficulties.

Advice for parents.

• Parents and children are most upset in the morning when they separate. Long goodbyes and persuasion with a worried expression on the face will cause anxiety in the child. Children most often calm down immediately after their parents disappear from sight.
• Try to ensure that your baby is surrounded by a calm and conflict-free atmosphere at home. Hug your baby more often, pat him on the head, say kind words.
• Celebrate his successes and improvements in behavior. Praise more than scold. He really needs your support now!
• Be more tolerant of whims. They arise due to overload of the nervous system.
• Let the child be taken away by the parent or relative with whom it is easier for him to part with.
• Be sure to say that you will come and indicate when.
• Under no circumstances should you be frightened by kindergarten (“If you’re playing around, I’ll take you to kindergarten, and you’ll live there alone!”).
• Don’t deceive your child, you promised to pick him up early, keep your promise.
• After kindergarten, spend more time with your child, ask how his day was, what he did in kindergarten.

1. Testing parents on the topic: “Psychological and pedagogical parameters for determining the readiness of a child to enter a preschool educational institution.”
2. Parting.

Game "Stand in a circle..."

• Stand in a circle, those who have 1 child,
• stand in a circle, those who have 2 children,
• those who have 3 or more children stand in a circle.

This is such a big and friendly circle we have!

Now everyone stand in a circle:

• shoulder to shoulder,
• elbow to elbow,
• foot to foot
• knee to knee,
• palm to palm.

So, holding hands, we formed something whole - a circle, a collective! And we want you to walk through all these 5 years hand in hand and become one big and friendly family!

Thank you all very much for your attention and participation!

At the end of the meeting, parents were given reminders on the topic: “Adaptation to kindergarten.”

During the entire adaptation period, work was carried out with parents in the form of group and individual consultations, conversations, and information was provided on stands and mobile folders.
