Definition

Productive activities of children are one or another way of a child’s activity, the goal of which is to obtain a product that has a specific set of qualities. This category includes:

  • different ways of assembling structures,
  • crafts made from plasticine or special clay,
  • performing appliqué work, mosaics,
  • making various crafts,
  • more complex work - certain layouts.

All productive activities of children listed above perform a responsible function for the development of preschoolers. This is the basis of many kindergarten programs designed for children under school age. This program is aimed at their comprehensive development and education.

Comprehensive development

The formation of this type of activity for children takes place in kindergarten under the guidance of experienced specialists. At this time, the connection between the children’s desire to create this or that product and the expansion of their cognitive abilities, various processes and qualities, the emotional area, and the volitional sphere of development is most clearly manifested.

The most vivid and controlled development of children’s character traits occurs, the formation of their character and individuality.

It is also interesting to read what features the speech development of an older preschooler has.

Psychological characteristics of a preschool child

Preschool childhood is the period from the moment of awareness of oneself as a member of human society (from about 2-3 years) to the moment of systematic education (6-7 years). In this process, social factors in personality formation play a decisive role. In preschool childhood, the basic individual psychological characteristics of the child are formed, and conditions are created for the formation of social and moral characteristics of the individual.

This phase of childhood is characterized by:

  • As a last resort, the child needs the help of an adult to meet the basic needs of life;
  • the maximum possible role of the family in satisfying all basic needs (material, spiritual, cognitive);
  • minimal possibility of self-protection from harmful environmental influences.

Appeal. By the age of six, a child’s vocabulary has expanded so much that he can easily explain to another person everything that relates to everyday life and his area of ​​interest. While a typically developing three-year-old child uses up to 500 or more words, a six-year-old child uses between 3,000 and 7,000 words. A six-year-old child's vocabulary consists of nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, numerals and connectives.

Sensory development. A child attending kindergarten not only distinguishes colors, shapes, sizes of objects and their position in space, but can also correctly name the proposed colors and shapes of objects and correctly distribute objects by size. He can also draw simple shapes and color them in a specific color. It is very important that the child can establish the identity of objects with a certain norm. Standards are humanity’s models of the main varieties of qualities and properties of objects. Thus, the standards of perception (sensory standards) are: colors of the spectrum, white and black colors, all kinds of shapes, sound levels, time intervals, etc. They arose during the history of human culture and are used by people as models, standards, with the help of which the compliance of perceived reality with one or another standard from a system of ordered standards is determined.

If a child can correctly name the color and shape of an object, if he can correlate the perceived quality with the norm, then we can assume that he can establish identity (the ball is round), partial similarity (the apple is round, but not perfectly similar to the ball), dissimilarity (the ball and cube). By carefully examining, touching or listening, the child performs correlative actions and traces the connection between what he perceives and the standard.

Development of thinking. A feature of a child’s healthy psyche is cognitive activity. A child’s curiosity is constantly aimed at understanding the world around him and forming his own picture of this world. The child plays, experiments, tries to establish cause-and-effect relationships and dependencies. For example, he himself can understand which objects will sink and which will float. He has many questions about the phenomena of life. The more intellectually active a child is, the more questions he asks and the more varied these questions become.

Development of attention. The child’s cognitive activity in exploring the world around him organizes his attention to the objects under study for quite a long time, until his interest wanes. If a six-year-old child is engaged in a game that is important to him, he can play for two or even three hours without being distracted. He can focus on productive activities (drawing, designing, work that is meaningful to him) for the same amount of time. However, such results of concentration are a consequence of interest in what the child is doing. He will languish, be distracted, and feel completely miserable when he has to engage in activities that are not suitable for him or that he does not like at all.

Memory development. Preschool age is an age of intensive memory development. It is generally accepted that memory is the leading cognitive process. In fact, a preschool child masters the language to such an extent that he becomes a true native speaker of his native language. Memory records and stores events and information that are significant to the child. Preschool childhood leaves many memories that will last a lifetime.

A six-year-old child can already voluntarily remember objects. When memorization becomes a condition for successful play or is important for the realization of a child’s aspirations, he easily remembers words in a certain order, poems, sequences of actions, and so on. A six-year-old child is already consciously able to use memorization techniques. He repeats what needs to be remembered, tries to understand, assimilate what was memorized in a certain order. However, involuntary memorization remains more productive. Here, too, everything is determined by the child’s interest in what he is doing.

Development of imagination. A six-year-old child can create in his imagination many situations in which he appears at his most beautiful. Having formed in the game, the imagination moves into other types of activities. This is most clearly manifested in drawing and in writing children's rhymes and fairy tales. Here there is great variability in the nature of children's creativity: some children are focused on recreating real reality, others on creating fantastic images and situations. Fantasy plays a greater role in the life of a child than in the life of an adult; it manifests itself much more often and allows more frequent violations of the reality of life. The tireless work of imagination is the main way a child learns and masters the world around him; it is a way to go beyond the limits of narrow personal experience.
