What is a nursery rhyme: definition. Nursery rhymes and jokes for children

All over the world, mothers, dying of tenderness for their child, begin to talk in a special way, "hum" with him, comfort, amuse. Time flies by quickly: feeding, sleeping, waking... From the first days, a happy baby, thanks to mothers and grandmothers, meets with wonderful lullabies.

The older generation has preserved oral folk art for us. Nursery rhymes introduce the child to the unique syllable of our grandmothers. Vladimir Dahl awards the word "amuse" with synonyms: to please, to occupy, to amuse, to amuse.

So what is a nursery rhyme in the modern world? This is a short rhyme, funny and easy to remember. Communication with young children allows adults to establish contact between the closest people with the help of sounds, the melody of the voice.

The singing sound of the first lullabies of comic songs, then a joke and funny little rhymes develops attention, sharpens hearing. This distracts the baby from his childhood problems, introduces him to nature, the animal world, toys, household items.

Simultaneous stroking and touching the head, arms, legs with the mention of these parts in the rhymes teach the baby. Adults begin to introduce a little person to the world by studying the face, the structure of the body. Children's nursery rhymes come to the rescue.

Folklore, which is passed from the older generation to the younger, is so rich that any situation in a child's life is reflected in it. Nursery rhymes, semantic jokes for children serve for these purposes and perfectly cope with the responsibilities of learning. Movements and gestures help the child to understand the word, its meaning and application.

The first nursery rhymes are etched into the memory for life

Every person, even in old age, is able to reproduce funny nursery rhymes in memory:

• Water, water, wash my face.
• The goose has water, you have all the thinness.
• Oh, kachi-kachi-kachi, look at the steering wheels, rolls.
• Carcasses, tutushki, pampushki on the table.

The first lines immediately suggest a continuation. How many centuries are they, these pestushkas, tall tales?

Printing technology helped to preserve these masterpieces, to tell modern people, what a nursery rhyme is. The memory at the birth of children and grandchildren returns them by itself, there is no need to even look into the book. By the age of three, the children themselves lose and pronounce funny rhymes, delighting their parents, grandmothers and themselves.

The children listen to lullabies with interest. In a peaceful atmosphere, in silence, where a familiar voice sounds melodiously, the kid in his imagination goes with the heroes of the song to a distant journey invented by him.

At the moments of the game, the counts are well remembered. By pronouncing them, children gain experience in pronouncing individual sounds, difficult-to-pronounce words. Speech therapists make special collections that are offered to children and adults for classes. Speech development gives feedback. Relatives understand each other better, enriching the child's vocabulary. Nursery rhymes and jokes are easy to remember.

Favorite jokes, sentences, nicknames

A wide variety of nursery rhymes and jokes become favorite if parents apply them to the place.

Playing with a child in ladushki - perhaps the first game in his life, we accompany the actions with words:

• Ladushki-frets,
  The gardens are not watered.

Or other:

• Ladushki-ladushki,
  Where have you been? At Grandma's!

How familiar everything is to a child: ladushki - palms that are so comfortably settled in mom's or grandma's hands. He does not yet know what a nursery rhyme is, but he is happy, amused, amused.

Developing the dynamics of finger compression, we play "Magpie". The child's hand snuggled in Mom's big hand. We sentence, we run our finger along the palm of the child. He's a little tickled, but curious. The child looks into his palm. Where's the magpie and her kids?

• Soroka, soroka,
  Where did she live? Far away!
  I cooked porridge, fed the kids.
  
  (Bending her fingers to her palm, mom continues.)
  
  I gave it to this one. I gave it to this one...
  
  (Etc. Gradually, all the fingers are bent, only one remains.)
  
  And this one didn't get it!
  
  (The thumb is held straight.)
  
  He didn't carry water,
  I didn't chop firewood,
  I didn't heat the stove.

A short story. Tom Thumb couldn't do anything, but the little man imagines that this is one of the kids at the table that the "Magpie" set for lunch. Meanwhile, the nursery rhyme is not easy, it already carries an educational bias: if you don't do the job, you won't get food.

Waking up a child in the early hours is the most pleasant. These minutes are important for communication with elders. A healthy baby wakes up joyful, plays willingly. Some changes in the child's condition have occurred, a rainy morning has spoiled his mood - then he will be amused by such a plot:

• Cockerel, cockerel,
  Golden scallop!
  Look out the window -
  I'll give you peas!

Or such:

• Sunny, look out,
  Red, light up...

To an older child, quote:

• Knocking, strumming on the street,
  Thomas rides a chicken,
  Timoshka rides a cat...

Folklore to help

A girl is growing up, she needs to braid her braids, but she doesn't like it. Mom calms, pats on the head and sentences a nursery rhyme:

• I'll braid my braid...
  I sentence:
  - You grow, grow a scythe,
  The whole city is beautiful.

You need to sit down for breakfast, drink milk, and the baby turns away, gets out?

Distracting jokes:

• Grass-ant rose from sleep,
  The bluebird took up the grain,
  Bunnies - for cabbage,
  Mice - for the crust,
  Children - for milk.

Need a massage - let's stroke, saying:

• Pull-pull,
  On... (ImI) porastushenki,
  In the handle - pads,
  In the mouth - a saying,
  And in the head - a mind!

We wash our faces with sayings, we amuse the child, we present the water as a kind fairy. While bathing, we also do not forget what a nursery rhyme is, and use various options for a fun and informative pastime.

Game funny nursery rhymes

Many kids like such games that slow them down, amuse them. Adults use their index and middle fingers to move from the toe of the foot, rising slowly upwards, and pronounce:

• The mouse went for water,
  For cold, key.
  There's a well, there's a well,
  And here is hot water!

A well is a place under the knee, under the armpit, and hot water in the neck area. The intonation is humorous, the fingers move slowly at first, finish, slightly tickling the child. There is no end to the fun. By the age of three, the child himself will be looking for that very hot water under your cheek.

The nursery rhyme develops

We begin to introduce the child to the animal world, and the jokes are right there:

• - Geese, geese!
  - Ha, ha, ha.
  - Do you want to eat?
  - Yes, yes, yes!
  - Well, fly home!
  - The gray wolf behind the mountain,
  He won't let us go home.

They will also serve children later when playing hide-and-seek, tag. Shouting them with pleasure, the guys will play with adults and peers.

And how many different nursery rhymes about plants, vegetables, flowers.

• I tear, I tear a berry,
  A black currant,
  A mother in a basket,
  And in the palm of your hand.

Nursery rhyme-educator

Since childhood, teaching children to work, make fun of lazy sluggards. The folk art of the nursery rhymes-mockery was used exactly for its intended purpose. For the purpose of education, jokes came to the aid of adults in such a case. For example, the verdict:

• - Where are you, Brother Ivan?
  - In the upper room.
  - What are you doing?
  - Helping Peter!
  - What is Peter doing?
  - Yes, it's lying on the stove!

Children are sensitive natures, they will feel a joke, even a mockery. Without unnecessary explanations, they will go to do what you asked them to do, and they forgot, ignored the request or just got lazy.

The nursery rhyme not only comforts, but also makes fun if you apply it in this version.

Nursery rhymes treat

Since ancient times, children have been instilled with love and respect for the products that they saturated. Love for animals that give milk, eggs. Taking care of the plants that were gifted with fruits.

• Mother turnip,
  I love you very much!
  The spoon will not be empty
  Until Lent!

They were talking about cabbage:

• Cabbage vilkast,
  Don't be an ankle,
  Grow sweet,
  Don't be bitter.
  Grow big,
  Don't be small.

The little reader in the game

Little rhymes set the rhythm, create a cheerful mood in the game of the guys. Eliminate disputes and dislikes - they have no one to blame, so the reader ordered who to drive.

• - Grey hare,
  What did you do?
  - Lyko dral.
  - Where did you put it?
  - Under the deck.
  - Who stole it?
  - Rodion!
  - Get out!

Getting to know nature

How many beautiful short funny poems about the change of seasons were inherited! They explain what to expect from the season: heat, cold, hot weather or rain. They invite summer in joyful anticipation, as if teasing:

• Rain, rain, rain!
  I'll give you the grounds.

Children's nursery rhymes were born-touts in the years when thick (thick food), unlike liquid soup, was on the table only in the hearty autumn and winter time. Spring gave hope for warmth, and rain gave a guarantee of a good harvest.

Folk art for the development of kindness

Folklore jokes introduce children to history. After reading such poems, they begin to ask a lot of questions, they have a feeling of pity, a desire to share bread and milk with the characters.

• Larks, come,
  Bring the spring red!
  How tired we are of winter!
  I've already finished all the bread,
  She burned all our firewood,
  She took away all the milk.

The nursery rhyme introduces the animal world

A joke is also a bright nursery rhyme. Its definition can be given as one of the directions of oral folk art, which was a joy for the old and small. Parents, being carried away no less than their children, when they see a snail, persuade her:

• Snail, snail,
  Stick out your horns!
  Let's give porridge a pot
  Yes, a little bread!

And doesn't everyone get carried away by a small, spotted bug that you can't let go until you ask:

• Ladybug,
  Fly away is not easy.
  There your kids
  Eat cutlets.

At such moments we become pure in heart. We hope that the ladybug will fly away to her children. Mentally comforting this insect that her children are full, we understand that any children are happier if their mother is with them.

Simple and familiar to us uncomplicated nursery rhymes, it turns out, are able to make a small and big person be attentive, kind, cordial, fair.
