Outdoor game Huge dog
Age : 3-4 years.
Number of players : 5 or more.
What develops : endurance, the ability to overcome one’s timidity and follow some basic rules.
Description : An adult draws a circle on the ground - this is a house for a huge dog. At a distance of several steps from him, a line is drawn that the children must reach. From this line, at a distance of 15-20 steps, a second line is drawn, where the children will escape from the dog. One of the children is assigned the role of a huge dog - he goes to his house and waits for the children to come to him. The adult brings the children to the edge of their house and lines them up. First, the adult herself leads the children, setting the direction and pace of movement, and says the following words, which all the children repeat with her:
Here sits a huge dog, with his nose buried in his paws. Quietly, quietly he sits, either dozing or sleeping. Let's go up to him, wake him up and see if something happens!?...
Under this text, all the children, holding hands, creep up to the line next to the dog’s house. On the last two lines they reach out and touch him. The dog should not move at this time: sitting with his eyes closed, he allows himself to be stroked. Suddenly, unexpectedly for the children, the dog opens his eyes and barks, and the kids run away into their house (beyond the line). The dog runs after the children, barks at them, and when everyone runs away over the line, he returns to his house. Each child chosen for this role performs it no more than two times, after which a new dog is chosen.
Rules that are not so easy for three-year-olds to follow: do not touch the dog until the text ends; the dog does not move and does not open his eyes until he is touched; You can run to your house and save yourself only after the dog barks.
Outdoor game Sparrows and cars
Age : 3-4 years.
Number of players : 7 or more.
What develops : endurance, the ability to follow some basic rules, slow down your impulsive motor activity, act strictly on a signal.
Description : An adult outlines an area on the ground where sparrows can fly and jump (the space should be large enough). Along the edges of the site he draws houses for the sparrows (circles, squares, etc.). This is where they will fly when the car starts moving. The adult explains that in their house the sparrows are not afraid of cars, and as soon as the car passes, they can jump and fly again.
First, an adult takes on the role of the car, showing how it drives and honks. Having made the appropriate movements, she says: “Fly, sparrows!” Children run out to the middle of the playground, pretending to see sparrows flying and jumping. Suddenly a horn sounds, and the car drives across the site again, and the sparrows run away to their houses, where they escape from the car. The teacher “drives” from end to end along the playground a couple of times, returns to her station and gives the signal: “Fly, sparrows!” This is repeated several times. Then several children are selected to represent cars. Now the adult gives only a verbal signal when cars should act and when sparrows should act (for example, a horn can be a signal for cars, and a chirp can be a signal for sparrows). When repeating the game, children can change roles.
Summer game Brave Mice
Age : 3-4 years.
Number of players : 7 or more.
What develops : endurance, the formation of self-control (in strict adherence to rules), the ability to overcome one’s timidity.
Description : Two lines are drawn at a distance of approximately 20 steps and a house for the cat is drawn. An adult chooses 5-6 people to play the role of mice, and one to play the role of a cat. The mice stand at the line, and the cat takes its place in the house. With the beginning of the poem S.Ya. Marshak, which is pronounced by an adult together with all the children, the mice take several steps towards the second line:
One day the mice came out to see what time it was. One-two-three-four - The mice pulled the weights... (Having stopped approximately in the middle of the space between the two lines, the mice make a movement with their hands, as if they were pulling the weights). Suddenly there was a terrible ringing sound! (...long pause...) The mice ran away!
With the last words, which are pronounced sharply and unexpectedly, the mice run away, and the cat catches them. Mice can escape from the cat behind any line, moving either backwards or forwards (of their choice). The cat can catch them only in the space between two lines. Only those mice that the cat touched are considered caught (you cannot grab or drag children).

The same one pursues those running, and if he manages to catch someone, then he becomes the first pair with the one caught, and the one who is left alone is left to burn. If the one who was burning did not manage to catch anyone, then the same pair stands in front of the other pairs, and he burns again.

(name).” If the player who was found reaches the stick before the driver, he quickly takes the stick and with the words “Wand, help me out!” knocks and throws it as far as possible, while the driver is looking for her - hiding.
