Week of legal education for preschoolers “I am a child and I have rights”



  • On the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children

CHILD'S RIGHTS (Rights of children) are those rights and freedoms that every child should have (every person under 18 years of age is considered a child), regardless of any differences: race, gender, language, religion, place of birth, national or social origin, property, class or other status.

Events at preschool educational institutions dedicated to the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children in 2022

  • Conversation “For children about children’s rights”
  • Conversation “Every child has a right”
  • Video “I am a child, and I have the right!”

The definition of children's rights follows logically from the basic ideas of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Her separate article is dedicated to children. It states that “Motherhood and childhood give the right to special care and assistance.” Thus, while recognizing the equal rights of children to all the freedoms proclaimed in the declaration, the international community recognizes the need for additional assistance and support for children.

For the harmonious development of personality, a child must grow up in an atmosphere of love and kindness, in a family, among close and loving people. The task of adults is to help the child prepare for independent life, become a full member of society, and create conditions for the child to have normal physical and intellectual development.

The development of the concept of human rights led to the fact that children's rights were allocated to a special category. At the beginning of the 20th century, children's rights were generally viewed in the context of existing problems of child labor, child trafficking, and underage prostitution. The need to legislatively ensure the protection of children's health and protection of their rights prompted the League of Nations to adopt the Geneva Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1924.

The next important step was the adoption by the UN of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1959, which proclaimed social and legal principles concerning the protection and well-being of children. In it about. The document consists of 10 provisions (principles, as they were called in the Declaration), recognition and compliance with which should allow “to ensure children a happy childhood.”


A child in the Russian Federation is a person under the age of 18 (the age of majority).

The rights of children in the Russian Federation are regulated by the following laws:

  • “Convention on the Rights of the Child” (approved by the UN General Assembly on November 20, 1989, entered into force for the USSR on September 15, 1990);
  • Constitution of the Russian Federation;
  • Family Code of the Russian Federation;
  • Federal Law of November 21, 2011 N 323-FZ “On the fundamentals of protecting the health of citizens in the Russian Federation”;

Explanatory note

The rights of the child are a set of children’s rights enshrined in international documents on children’s rights, which are also reflected in the regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation. The Russian Federation recognizes that childhood is an important stage in a person’s life, and the interests of children are one of the most important priorities of state policy.

The Declaration of the Rights of the Child was adopted by resolution 1386 (XIV) of the UN General Assembly on November 20, 1959, which contains ten basic principles guiding the actions of all those responsible for the implementation of children's rights (https://www.un.org/ru/documents/ decl_conv/declarations/childdec.shtml).

30 years later, on November 20, 1989, the Convention on the Rights of the Child was adopted.

The International Declaration of the Rights of Children is an official document adopted by the international community, which sets out the responsibilities of an adult towards a child. The Declaration provides for the same rights for all minors in upbringing, education, physical and spiritual development, and it does not matter what race the child is, what language he speaks, what religion he professes, etc. The Convention determines the will of minors to receive education, to conduct rest and leisure, for the use of other services of states that are members of the UN and have signed this document. The Convention is the first and main international legal document defining the rights of minors.

Official UN documents recommend that all countries introduce the practice of celebrating World Children's Day on November 20 as a day of global brotherhood and mutual understanding of children, dedicated to activities aimed at ensuring the well-being of children around the world. As part of this day, events dedicated to children are held (open lessons, educational sessions, seminars, conferences, lectures, events, demonstrations and flash mobs, fundraising for orphanages and low-income families by charitable foundations). The main goal of this day is to attract public attention to legislative norms that ensure the favorable development and personality formation of minor members of society.

In accordance with the decision of the Government Commission on the implementation of Federal Law No. 324-FZ dated November 21, 2011 “On free legal assistance in the Russian Federation,” since 2013, the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children, dedicated to World Children’s Day, has been held annually in the Russian Federation.

The main goal of the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children is to provide legal assistance to orphans and children in difficult life situations, as well as to widely inform citizens about the possibilities of the free legal assistance system. On this day, free legal consultation centers on children's rights, guardianship, trusteeship and child-parent relations are organized in all constituent entities of the Russian Federation. In addition to providing free legal assistance, on this day additional events will be held to provide legal advice to children and their parents in educational organizations, as well as at public reception centers and free legal assistance centers in all regions of Russia.

Basic approaches to organizing events dedicated to the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children in educational organizations

Preventive work in an educational organization on legal education and upbringing of students is a means of preventing crime and combating negative manifestations in adolescents and youth. The education of a holistic personality that combines adherence to moral principles, spiritual and cultural wealth, and law-abidingness is impossible without legal education and legal education of the student.

The goal of legal education in an educational organization is the formation of a legal culture and legal knowledge.

On the All-Russian Day of Legal Assistance for Children, educational organizations are recommended to conduct legal literacy classes aimed at:

  • focusing the attention of students, their parents and teachers on the rights and freedoms of the child as a full participant in legal relations;
  • promoting the development of students’ interest in issues of legal education, their determination of their attitude to law as a public value;
  • assisting schoolchildren in determining their own ideas about modern legal and moral values ​​of society.

Legal literacy classes can be organized as part of educational activities:

— studying the basics of legal knowledge in the lessons of the subject “The World Around us” in elementary school; — explanation of administrative and criminal legislation on the responsibility of minors for committing offenses in the lessons of the subjects “Social studies”, “Law”, “Lifestyle”; — study of the formation and development of law within the subject “History”.

In extracurricular work, during extracurricular activities, legal education activities can be of a varied nature:

  1. Conversations, lectures for students on legal topics with the involvement of public organizations, representatives of law enforcement agencies, teachers and students of law faculties of higher educational institutions as lecturers, as well as the parent community.
  2. Activities using interactive methods that ensure the personal participation of students in the proposed activities, the involvement of all participants in the discussion of the problems posed, which will contribute to the development of the ability to comprehensively analyze facts and phenomena, relying on acquired skills and accumulated experience.
  3. Activities using game forms - role-playing and business games, discussion and acting out of problem situations taken from real life or artistic sources, mock trials, real-life legal situations. The use of dramatizations and role-playing games during such events makes it possible to diversify the learning process, motivate students to independently search for information, form a responsible attitude towards the task at hand, teach them to work in a team, express and competently defend their opinions.
  4. Socially significant projects, competitions, events aimed at developing civil consciousness (preparing creative assignments, presentations, creating a video, conducting research, etc.).
  5. Electronic form of legal education - organization of video lectures, conferences, use of information materials and various electronic resources, including MES, for organizing and conducting classes, extracurricular activities, etc.
  6. Joint productive activity - students produce information and didactic materials: booklets, brochures, reference materials on the legal topics being studied.
  7. Conducting meetings on legal advice to parents (legal representatives) on issues of children's rights with the involvement of representatives of school conciliation services, social services, law enforcement agencies, lawyers, as well as individual advice in the field of legal aspects of guardianship and child-parent relations for parents of students in difficult situations life situation, guardians (adoptive parents), legal representatives of children with disabilities.
  8. Placing information on aspects of civil law culture in the public space of an educational organization.

Carrying out such events will not only improve the legal culture of all participants in educational relations, but will also form an active civic position in them.

When organizing legal education events, it is important to take into account not only the level of knowledge of students in matters of law, but also taking into account the age of the children. For example, at the level of primary general education, classes are based on game forms of work: quizzes, games, drawing competitions, posters, etc.; at the level of basic general education, when teaching children’s rights, the choice must be given to a set of cognitive and practical tasks that takes into account the interests and life experiences of students; At the level of secondary general education, it is better to choose the search and research method and activity practice.
