The benefits of the game and its features
It is best to conduct the lesson on a summer walk or during an outdoor sporting event.
The goal of the outdoor game homeless hare is to teach children to act together as a team, empathize with a friend, make quick decisions, and help each other out. This exercise also helps children run fast and at the same time navigate in space.
Preparation and rules
Children aged 4 years and older can play “homeless hare”. Younger kids are unlikely to be able to quickly master such rules. The entire middle group or 6-9 children can take part.
The lesson is based on the principle of “a third wheel”. Therefore, the playing field requires preparation - you need to draw houses in advance for the participants in the role of hares. They can be round or square - the main thing is that 2 kids can fit inside the depicted figure. Therefore, it is better to play on an outdoor playground. At the same time, you should remember about the safety of the children and keep an eye on them.
Important:
There should be 2 fewer drawn houses than there are participants, because one of them will be a hunter, and the other will be a homeless bunny.
The rules of the game about a homeless hare are simple, but it is better that children of the middle, senior or preparatory group be included in it. First, the teacher or presenter chooses two children to play the roles of a hunter and a hare without a home. On command, the baby, in the role of an animal, must hide in someone’s house. As soon as he runs into someone else's circle, his owner jumps over the line and becomes a new homeless hare. As a result, there is a constant change of roles, and the activity continues until the hunter catches the hare.
You can use hoops for houses. But then the guys need to be even more careful so as not to trip when jumping from the circle.
Each stage will have its own winner. To make the lesson even more interesting, the teacher can mark the most dexterous hunter or the fastest hare, and reward the children with some symbolic prize.
Important:
Because The entire middle or senior group can participate; you need to choose a spacious and safe place for children. With the help of exercises, kids need to learn how to navigate in space and quickly change roles. Therefore, it is important that children do not fall or touch each other.

Other interesting games about hares in the preschool program
Educators highlight educational exercises about these animals because of their benefits in terms of activity, fast pace, and role-based learning. Before the lesson, you can briefly talk about hares and ask the guys who knows what about them. It is important that every child takes part in such a small survey at least a little.
Often in such games, children happily pretend to be bunnies - secretly sneaking into the garden for carrots, running away from a wolf, fox or hunter. For children, such a small cardio load is important and beneficial. The main thing is that they wear comfortable clothes and shoes to avoid unpleasant incidents or injuries.
Scarecrow and hares
Participants are divided into 2 teams - hares and carrots. One participant is assigned to the role of a scarecrow - he stands in the middle of the playing field on a drawn line. Behind him, the baby carrots team are squatting, who will be hunted by cunning eared animals. To do this you need:
- Sneak past unnoticed;
- Grab a “carrot from the garden” by the hand;
- Take him away quickly.
The task of the participant in the role of a scarecrow is not to let the bunnies into the garden. If he detained someone from this team, the kids change roles.
Hares and wolf
This exercise further teaches kids to help each other out and become a cohesive team. There is no need for specific preparation here - it is enough to determine the boundaries of the site, a place for the wolf and an area for the bunnies.
The kid in the role of a wolf stands on the edge of the playing field, the children in the role of hares jump and have fun. At the signal “Wolf!” The guys run away in different directions. In this case, there is nowhere to hide, so if the wolf has caught someone, he needs to take him to his place. As soon as he takes 5 bunnies, everything starts again, and one of the “captives” is chosen to play the role of predator.
This game activity is dynamic, kids will have to run for a long time. Therefore, as soon as children start to get tired, it is better to take a break. It will become more interesting if you praise the most dexterous, brave guys who helped their friends and distracted the wolf from them.
Bunnies on a tram
The purpose of the exercise is to teach children to act together, on command. It is not as active as the previous ones, but useful and exciting. The teacher appoints one child as the driver. 5-6 guys can get on the tram so that no one trips or gets confused.
At the signal, the tram driver stands in front, the rest of the children join him, holding each other, and run - first slowly, then faster. The transport stop is near the bench on the site. After each circle, one hare leaves and is replaced by another. After 5 routes across the playing field, you can assign a new driver, and while the tram is moving, repeat children's songs or poems with the “bunnies” to develop speech.
Grandfather-horn
The driver-grandfather chooses a house for himself and sits quietly there. The rest are divided into 2 equal parties and disperse in 2 directions, on either side of Grandfather’s house. In front of each side, you need to put a stick or rope to indicate that this is home. The free space between them is a field.
When everything is arranged, Grandfather asks “Who is afraid of me?” - "Nobody!" - everyone answers and begins to run from one house to another across the field, teasing Grandfather: “Grandfather the horn burned a hole on the stove!” The driver must catch those running and take them to his house; he must not resist or run away from the house. But you can help out. Players who haven't been caught can run up to Grandfather's house and, touching the caught one, free him. then he can run again.
You can play a little differently: those caught help Grandfather catch everyone. They play until they catch everyone
Important recommendations for outdoor games
Children love these types of active exercises, especially after educational activities.
But before the game, the teacher must take into account some points:
- Venue, air temperature, weather conditions. After such an active game, the children warm up well and can sweat. Therefore, you need to keep an eye on the time and quickly take everyone to the group so that no one catches a cold;
- Children's clothing for a walk should be comfortable and not restrict movement;
- You should carefully monitor the game and not let it take its course. Kids can get wild, start pushing each other, hurting each other. This should not be allowed;
- It is necessary to organize the lesson so that even the most shy children take part in it. Preferably in several roles. This will help you better adapt to the team and to new situations. There is no need to distribute roles only between active kids.
- It will be easier for the children to get involved in the game if, when it is first played, there is a teacher or assistant in one of the roles. This will surely interest and amuse the kids.
The outdoor game “homeless hare” will certainly interest children with its activity, interesting roles and their quick change.
The lesson develops attention, coordination, memory well, and teaches you to quickly adapt to a new role. And the most important thing that this exercise gives is a good mood and a fun pastime that children will remember with joy for a long time. What else to read Game Shtander with a ball
Gingerbread board
All players sit next to each other on a bench or on chairs placed in a row. This will be a “gingerbread board”. There should be enough space around the bench or chairs (so that you can run around them). The driver walks along the “gingerbread board”, all players say or sing:
Gingerbread board, from a whole stump, From a whole stump, throw the boy down.
In response to the words “Drop the guy,” the driver quickly slaps his hand on the knee of one of the players. The player must quickly run around the “gingerbread board” and sit down in his place. At this time, the presenter runs around the “gingerbread board” in a different direction. If the driver managed to take the player’s place, then the player who was slapped on the knee will now drive. If not, then the same driver will drive again.
Outdoor games with jumping are best done outdoors. The age of the players may vary. All games are aimed at developing or improving the skill of jumping with two feet from a place. For such outdoor games, the surface of the court is very important. An area covered with sand would be ideal. So, games are perfect for the beach. The trampled earthen area is also not bad. But clearings overgrown with grass and gravel paths are not suitable. Another option for the location of these outdoor games is asphalt. It is not the best from a “medical” point of view - the surface is too hard. But this is the most accessible option for walking sites.
“Kanguryats” - an active game with jumping on the street for children 5-9 years old
The minimum number of players is two people. You need to draw a “starting” line on the ground with chalk or a stick. All children are divided into pairs. The first couple goes to the line. The first player jumps as far as possible. The length of his jump is marked with chalk. The second player must make a jump in the opposite direction - from the place to which his opponent was able to jump. Moreover, he must only jump to the “starting” line, but fly at least a few centimeters further. If the second player succeeds, then he is the winner in this pair, but if he fails, the first player is the winner. Then the pairs are formed by the winners of the first stage and so on until the two most dexterous “kangaroos” remain. This is where the absolute champion of the “keguryak” Olympic Games is determined! An outdoor game can also be played in teams. Then pairs are formed from members of opposing teams. For each victory in “pairs” competitions, the team receives one point. Whoever scores more points wins. To avoid quarrels and accusations of bias, you can organize the game so that each pair makes two jumps. First, one player jumps first, and then the second.
"Shuttle" - an outdoor game with jumping for children 7-9 years old
This team outdoor game is similar to the previous one, but is more suitable for older children. Before the game starts, a long line is drawn on the ground. Its length must be sufficient for all players of one team to line up on it. A draw determines which team will jump first. All participants in the game approach the line and jump, trying to “fly” as far as possible. The presenter-judge marks with chalk the place to which each of the team members jumped (marked on the heels). Now the members of the second team take places on these “marks” and must jump in the opposite direction. The task is to be behind the “starting” line. The number of players from the second team who completed this task is counted. If more than half are below the line, the second team wins, if less than half, the first team wins. You can simply count the points - one point for each player who jumps over the line. And then hold the competition again. But now the other team must jump first.
“Precise Jump” - an outdoor outdoor game with jumping for children 5-9 years old
You can play such an active game with children of different ages, but it will be somewhat more difficult for kids to correctly calculate the length of their jump. And accuracy is very important here! This game is for a small group of children. Before the game starts, two lines are drawn. One is the start line, and the other is the stop line. Children need to stand one after another, like for a relay race in front of the starting line. The first participant must jump beyond the “stop line”, but calculate the jump in such a way that he is no further than one foot from it. If everything worked out, then this participant runs and stands at the end of the column. If he under-jumps or over-jumps, he is eliminated from the game. The next participant starts the test and so on. The last one remaining in the game wins.
“Kangaroo racing” - an outdoor outdoor game with jumping for children 5-9 years old
This outdoor game is a competition for small teams of 5-6 people. Otherwise, even if you play the game on the street, you simply may not have enough length of the court. If there are a lot of children, then the solution is very simple - make not two, but three, four, six teams. The starting line is drawn. Behind her, teams line up in a column one by one. At the signal from the leader, the race begins! The first team member jumps as far as possible, the second player runs up to him and jumps from the place to which his predecessor jumped and. etc. The result is summed up after the last participant has jumped. Whichever team “galloped” further is the winner. You can change the rules. Draw not only the start line, but also the finish line. Let, for example, a new kangaroo pasture begin beyond this line. Or a kangaroo cinema, where the new action-packed cartoon “The Kangaroo and the Goblet of Fire” is about to start. Or something else very attractive. In general, you need to get to this place as soon as possible. You should jump exactly the same as in the first option. And the winner will be the team that reaches the coveted line first.
We'll show you what we did
All children stand in a circle, and the driver moves aside. The others gather together and quietly decide what they were doing, for example, they decided to go skiing. Afterwards they again stand in a circle and call for water. He comes up and asks:
- What did you saw?
Children in a circle answer:
“We won’t tell you what we saw, but we’ll show you what we did.”
Afterwards, the children show the intended action. If the driver guesses correctly, he names the person who will drive next.
