1. Stories for the little ones (for children approximately 1.5-2 to 3-4 years old)
“Turnip”, “Ryaba Hen”, “Teremok”, “Kolobok” - all these fairy tales can be told to a child starting from one and a half to two years old, showing him pictures and looking at them with him. To them you can add Russian folk nursery rhymes, poems by Agnia Barto for kids ("The bull goes, sways...", "Our Tanya is crying bitterly..." and others), "Chicken" by Korney Chukovsky and "Chicken and Duckling" by Vladimir Suteev .
These are very short stories, either describing a single event (Ryaba Hen laid a golden egg, Tanya dropped a ball into the river, etc.), or built as a chain of similar episodes (first the grandfather pulls the turnip, then the grandfather and grandmother, and so on) Further). They are told in simple sentences, have a lot of repetition and rhyme, and require a relatively small vocabulary to understand. Many of them are transitional forms from nursery rhymes (such as “The Magpie-Crow was cooking porridge...”) to fairy tales.
As a rule, young children enjoy listening to these fairy tales and poems many times. When the child already knows this or that fairy tale well enough, invite him to tell it himself, using pictures and relying on your help. If your child likes to listen to fairy tales and poems from the first section, try gradually adding a few books from the second section (just be sure to have pictures).
It is best not to read these fairy tales to very young children (one and a half to two and even three years old), but to tell them by showing them pictures and looking at them together. It is always easier for a child to perceive text based on pictures, so when telling or reading the first fairy tales and poems to him, be sure to show him all the characters in the pictures and look at the pictures with him.
Note: if you can find a slide projector and filmstrips with these fairy tales, be sure to show them to your child - filmstrips are much better perceived than cartoons, they make the eyes less tired, and they help to understand the text (and do not replace it with action, as happens in cartoons) .
It is very important for a child that the story ends well. A good ending gives him a feeling of reliability in the world, while a bad (including realistic) ending contributes to the emergence of all kinds of fears. Therefore, it is better to tell “Teremok” in the version when, after the tower fell apart, the animals built a new one, even better than the previous one. “Kolobok” should initially be told with a good ending - for example, by figuring out how Kolobok at the last moment managed to outwit the Fox and run away from her.
If you talk and play a lot with your baby and started telling and reading fairy tales to him early, then at two and a half or three years old you can move on to the books of the next section. However, children with whom they talk little and to whom little stories are told and read can “grow up” to the books of the next section only by the age of five or six, or even later, especially if they watch a lot of TV and are not used to listening to stories.
2. The stories are a little more complex (for children from about 2.5-3 to 6-7 years old)
At the second “level of complexity” you can put numerous books by Vladimir Suteev ("Under the Mushroom", "The Magic Wand", "Apple" and others), many poetic fairy tales by Korney Chukovsky ("Telephone", "Fedorino's Mountain", "Moidodyr", "Aibolit"), poems by Samuil Marshak ("Mustache-striped", "Where did you have dinner, sparrow?", "He's so absent-minded" and others), as well as his translations of children's English rhymes (for example, "Gloves", "Visiting Queen", "Boat", "Humpty Dumpty"). This also includes folk tales about animals (“Tails”, “Cat and Fox”, “Fox with a rolling pin”, “Zayushkina’s hut” and others), fables by Sergei Mikhalkov (“Who wins?”, “Helpful hare”, “Friends on a hike”) and many other stories.
Note: some of K. Chukovsky’s fairy tales are quite scary for children, and it is best to read them no earlier than five or six years old - they are included in section 3.
These stories are already a little longer; as a rule, they consist of several separate episodes related in meaning. The relationships between their characters become a little more complex, the dialogues become more complex; To understand these stories, the baby needs a larger vocabulary.
A good ending and no events that are too scary (even if they end well) are still important. Therefore, it is better to postpone acquaintance with most fairy tales until at least six or seven years. Even Little Red Riding Hood often frightens young children. Children who begin to be told or read fairy tales early (at four or five years old), at best, then simply do not like them; at worst, they may develop all sorts of fears and nightmares. So if you read a lot to your child and he quickly mastered this section, choose from the books in the next section those where nothing terrible happens - for example, Nosov's stories, Nikolai Gribachev's stories about the hare Koska and his friends, or Astrid Lindgren's stories.
If you talk and play a lot with your baby and started telling him fairy tales and reading books early enough, then the stories in this section will be most interesting to him at three or four years old, and at the age of five he will be able to supplement them with books from the next section. The child will willingly listen and read his favorite stories later, with pleasure again and again living the situations in which his favorite characters find themselves.
And when starting to read independently (whether at five, six, seven or even eight years old), a child should return to the fairy tales and stories in this section - they are short and simple, they are accompanied by numerous bright pictures that help overcome the difficulties of independent reading. It is also better to start learning to retell from fairly simple texts, which is why some of the stories in this section are often included in textbooks and reading books for elementary schools.
If a child watches a lot of TV and videos and listens little to fairy tales and books, it may be difficult for him to perceive the stories of this section at the age of four or five (not counting, of course, the cartoons based on them). In this case, you can stay on the books in this section for up to six or seven years, gradually adding fairy tales and stories of the next level to them.

3. Funny stories and exciting adventures (for children from approximately 5-6 to 8-9 years old)
The books in this section are very different. There are stories for all tastes: scary fairy tales (for example, fairy tales of different nations retold for children), and funny and cheerful adventures (for example, the adventures of Dunno and the donkey Muffin, Pinocchio and the Moomins, the hare Koska and Pippi Longstocking) , and the ironic narratives of Gregory Oster and Alan Milne. There are short fables and long stories, poetry and prose.
What they have in common is that these are all stories for preschoolers who love to listen and read books; "TV" children usually do not understand them - they cannot concentrate on listening to long enough stories, and they lack the imagination to imagine the events described in them.
Some of these books are published in different versions - with a lot of bright pictures or in a more “adult” form, where there are few or no pictures. For preschoolers, even the oldest and smartest, it is better to buy books in bright and colorful designs; pictures help them imagine the characters in the book and the events that happen to them.
If a child was read very little before school, it may be difficult for him to perceive these stories even at eight or nine years old. In this case, simply reading to a child is often no longer enough for him to learn to understand literary texts. It is necessary to conduct special correctional and educational classes with such children - otherwise they will not be able to cope with the school curriculum, and their inner world will remain undeveloped and primitive.
Children who are read a lot may well fall in love with some of the books in the next section before school (they are somewhat more complex in language and plot, and are usually read by schoolchildren aged 7-11).

4. More complex stories, interesting for older preschoolers who love to listen and read books and have already read most of the stories from the last section (usually these books are read by schoolchildren aged 7-11, and often - and with pleasure - by adults)
“The Scarlet Flower” and “The Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors”, “Mowgli” and “Nils’s Wonderful Journey with the Wild Geese” - these and many other books, usually included in reading lists for schoolchildren, are quite accessible to many preschoolers if they like to listen and read books and have already read most of the stories from the last section. In the books of this group, the semantic picture of the world becomes more complex and dismembered. Their characters experience moral conflicts, learn to understand other people and build relationships with them, their relationships become more complex and can change as the action progresses. The text itself becomes more complex: the plot lengthens and becomes more branched, the description of the feelings and experiences of the characters begins to occupy a large place, descriptions, author’s digressions and reflections of the characters are added, the same situation can be shown from the positions of different characters.
It is not at all necessary to switch to books in this group before school; this should only be done if you have already re-read most of the books in the third section with your child. And one more thing: since these books are more complex both in language and in content, it is better for the child to read them with you - even if he already reads quite well on his own.

Hello, dear readers. At the request of readers, today I will talk about what books for children 6-7 years old are necessary for development.
Every loving parent approaches the upbringing process with great responsibility. From the early age they read books to their children. Reading develops cognitive, educational and aesthetic feelings in children. Having the experience of a mother with preschool-age children, I can say that not every children's book is beneficial. It is necessary to take into account the age, development, interests and psychological characteristics of each child individually.
Try to make reading for children a pleasure, not a burden. There is no need to impose or force. Enter competently into the magical world of literature. The interest of preschool children is fragile; with just one piece of work you can lose it forever.
At the age of 6–7 years, children like works about the animal world, insects, nature, stories and fairy tales about their peers. For reading, you should give preference to classical literature. At all times, the classics remain relevant; many generations have grown up with them. But don't limit yourself, there are authors these days that are worth paying attention to. Reading their books will also bring pleasure and benefit.
Some areas can be highlighted:
- Poetry. I think everyone remembers the poem " Uncle Styopa"Sergei Mikhalkov, " Moidodyr" or " Aibolit"Korney Chukovsky, "Younger Brother" by Agnia Barto.
- Children's fiction by Yuri Tomin " A wizard walked through the city», « Adventure Electronics» Evgenia Veltisova.
- Stories and stories " Do not lie» Mikhail Zoshchenko, “Knights” Viktor Dragunsky.
- Small folklore of all peoples of the world. Songs, jokes, nursery rhymes, nursery rhymes.
- Russian folk tales, for example, “ Masha and the Bear"Morozko", "Teremok", " Princess Frog", "Sister Alyonushka and brother Ivanushka."
- Works about nature and the animal world. Konstantin Ushinsky wrote a lot about children, all the beauty of nature, animals, birds and insects. "The Scientist Bear" Four wishes», « The pranks of the old woman of winter", "The Goose and the Crane".
Full development
At the age of 6–7 years, a child is considered a preschooler and many books can be classified as older preschool literature. Today, pedagogical training methods are varied among different authors. But all of them should shape the preschooler’s interest in reading. A parent or adult working with children should conduct discussions that encourage independent reasoning and expression of their opinions. Be sure to model situations - compose a story or fairy tale, draw the characters you like, mold them from plasticine.
It is better to choose educational books with bright illustrations and large letters. At this age, the emotional coloring of the heroes of the work plays a more important role. It is revealed in items of clothing, hairstyles, mood and behavior, in all sorts of details of the plot.
Before reading, show your child the picture. Try to write a description and understand what is being said. This will help to develop creative thinking. If a preschooler can read, you can try expressive reading, role-playing. After reading, give the opportunity to retell. Practice poetry with your children.
There are some claims by psychologists that children's stories should end positively. This gives reliability to the surrounding world. And doubts and fears are caused by a sad, unhappy ending. An unwanted ending can always be corrected.
Developing an interest and love for reading
It is worth instilling a love of art from the earliest years of life. From the birth of the child, the mother hums lullabies, and as the baby grows and develops, she begins to read bedtime stories aloud. The child develops a habit and a need to learn new exciting stories.
Some interesting ways to cultivate a love of literature:
- Offer a book based on interest.
- Be sure to put magazines, catalogs or newspapers in the most visible places in the house.
- Read for yourself. Cultivate habits; it is acceptable for children to repeat after adults.
- Pay attention to games that require reading.
- Ask the older child to read to the younger one.
- Availability of a specially designated place in the house for storing literature.
- Fuel children's interest.
A reward in the form of sweets or permission to watch TV, simple praise or the gift of a new book will not bring any benefit, and will even repel. Don't judge quality critically.

Give the opportunity to love books. Talk about her values. Be an example - read for yourself. If a child sees you reading, he will try to spend as much time as possible in the world of fascinating works. Technology does not stand still, and there is a huge selection on the shelves, but shopping is not comparable to a walk to the library. And for future schoolchildren, the library is one of the first assistants in successful studies and future endeavors.
On this note, let me say goodbye to you. Subscribe to blog updates, leave comments on the article. Maybe you can tell us some more interesting works for children of this age, I will be grateful.
The books in this section are very different. There are stories for all tastes: scary fairy tales (for example, fairy tales of different nations retold for children), and funny and cheerful adventures (for example, the adventures of Dunno and the donkey Muffin, Pinocchio and the Moomins, the hare Koska and Pippi Longstocking) , and the ironic narratives of Gregory Oster and Alan Milne. There are short fables and long stories, poetry and prose. But let us note that there are fewer and fewer poems, and more and more prose. After all, children of this age already really like exciting stories full of adventure and suspense.
Some of these books are published in different versions - with a lot of bright pictures or in a more “adult” form, where there are few or no pictures. For preschoolers, even the oldest and smartest, it is better to buy books in bright and colorful designs; pictures help them imagine the characters in the book and the events that happen to them.
At this age, a child usually already knows how to read and the parents’ task is to teach himenjoy this process. It is very important that a work that is too complex for his age does not fall into the hands of a little fidget. Otherwise, the child will poorly understand what he reads, and this may discourage interest in books for life. Therefore, when giving your child the first books to read independently, choose those with a lot of pictures and little text. Let the child read “Ryaba the Hen” and “Kolobok” himself. Familiar fairy tales will help you painlessly overcome the “I read this but don’t know what” stage.
However, even if your child already reads well on his own, be sure to continue reading aloud to him, because for a child at this age, reading is a huge job. Imagine that someone suggested that you solve trigonometric inequalities in your spare time, you would wrinkle your nose and prefer an alternative form of recreation. The difference between you and your child is that at thirty you may or may not be interested in trigonometry. A child at six needs to become interested in reading - there is school ahead, where he will have to read every day, a lot and preferably - with pleasure.
And, most importantly, read it yourself at home. If mom sits down on the sofa with a book every evening, and dad regularly studies magazines with interest, the baby will be sure: daily reading is the same “obligatory life program” as TV or morning washing.

FACTS ABOUT READING
1. Thanks to reading, the child’s SPEECH develops and his vocabulary increases. The book teaches a little person to express his thoughts and understand what other people say.
2. Reading develops THINKING. From books, a child learns abstract concepts and expands the horizons of his world. The book explains life to him and helps him see the connection between one phenomenon and another.
3. Working with a book stimulates CREATIVE IMAGINATION, allows imagination to work and teaches children to think in images.
4. Reading develops cognitive interests and broadens your horizons. From books and periodicals, a child learns about other countries and a different way of life, about nature, technology, history and everything that interests him.
5. Books help a child KNOW HIMSELF. It is very important for self-esteem to know that other people think, feel and react the same way as he does.
6. Books help children UNDERSTAND OTHERS. By reading books written by writers from other cultures and eras, and seeing that their thoughts and feelings are similar to ours, children understand them better and get rid of prejudices.
7. A good children's book can be read aloud to a child. The process of reading together promotes SPIRITUAL COMMUNICATION between parents and children, establishing mutual understanding, intimacy, and trust. The book unites generations.
8. Books ASSISTANTS TO PARENTS in solving educational problems. They teach children ethics, force them to think about good and evil, develop the ability to empathize, and help them learn to empathize with other people.
9. It is reading that performs not only a COGNITIVE, AESTHETIC, but also an EDUCATIONAL function.
What are the main mistakes of parents? It is impossible to find a person who has never made mistakes. What mistakes do parents make most often, and how to recognize their mistakes?
Many parents ask questions about how to teach a child to be independent, since such a nuance is a pillar of the educational process. The best and most lasting effect will come if you explain to him the idea and purpose of what is happening. The child must understand what is happening, connect events with causes, and draw his own conclusions. This means the inevitable passage of the ill-fated “why” stage, when the child is interested in the reasons for literally everything that catches his eye. But at the same time, there is a very useful instillation of the habit of getting to the bottom of the real reason for everything that happens.
Most often, a diet for teenagers is needed to lose excess weight. Obesity threatens many teenagers today much more often than before. This is due to an increase in the volume of food consumed, a large number of too fatty, unhealthy foods on the menu.
From a psychological point of view, fear is a negative emotion. Occurs in cases of danger to human life and health, both physical and mental. Fears may arise as a result of the negative impact of social factors on the human psyche.
For many parents, such a phrase as dysgraphia in children will not mean anything. In the USSR, this disease was known, but little attention was paid to its diagnosis. A child suffering from problems with spelling and written speech could be told more about the need for attentiveness, perseverance, and the importance of knowing the rules of spelling. Pathology was diagnosed in exceptional cases, when it was quite difficult to suggest any alternative options. According to statistics, this disease is rarely pronounced.
