"The Girl Who Stepped on Bread"
A child should read the fairy tale by G.Kh. Andersen about a poor but proud girl who loved to torture insects. When she began to serve in the landowner's house, the owners reminded her that she needed to visit her parents. She went. But when she saw her mother with a bundle of brushwood, she felt ashamed that she was so ragged. And Inge left without seeing her mother.
Six months later she was again reminded of her mother. She took the white bread they gave her and went. She was dressed in a beautiful dress and had new shoes. When she encountered a dirty puddle, she threw bread at her feet and then stepped on it. And suddenly she began to be pulled into the ground. That's how she ended up with the swamp woman.
Where the swamp woman lived was a very dirty place. The devil and a poisonous old woman came to visit her, and Inge really liked her. She wanted to make an idol out of her. The girl, having gone to hell, saw the torment of sinners. And her torment was just beginning. She was hungry and wanted to break off some bread, but she could not move. She petrified, turned into an idol. Then she felt hot tears dripping onto her. It was her mother crying. Everyone on earth already knew about her sin. People even composed a song about a arrogant girl who stepped on bread.
Inge has only heard bad things about herself. But still, one little girl, having heard the story about her, felt sorry for her. The little one really wanted Inge to ask for forgiveness. The girl called her poor and was very sorry.
Everyone has already died: the mother, the mistress for whom Inge worked. The girl who thought about Inga also became old. And Inge thought about the fact that a stranger loved her and cried for her. She cried, and her stone shell melted. The girl turned into a bird.
Since then she has been flying and collecting crumbs. She eats only one, and then calls other birds. She gave away as many crumbs as there were in the bread she stepped on.

CHRISTMAS TREE
On December 24, the children of Medical Advisor Stahlbaum were not allowed to enter the passage room all day, and they were not allowed into the living room adjacent to it at all. In the bedroom, Fritz and Marie sat huddled together in a corner. It was already completely dark, and they were very scared, because no lamps had been brought into the room, as was supposed to be the case on Christmas Eve.
Fritz, in a mysterious whisper, told his little sister (she had just turned seven years old) that since the very morning there had been rustling, noise and gentle knocking in the locked rooms. And recently a small dark man with a large box under his arm slipped through the hallway; but Fritz probably knows that this is their godfather, Drosselmeyer.
Then Marie clapped her hands with joy and exclaimed: “Oh, did the godfather make us something this time?”

"A piece of bread"
A. Nuikin’s story “A Piece of Bread” will help a child understand a lot about the importance of bread. It describes a case of a piece of bread lying on the sidewalk. People walked by: young, old, children. One boy took a piece and kicked it into the middle of the road. Suddenly he heard someone say about sin. I looked around and saw an old man. He looked left and right and quietly walked towards the piece. Then he carried it to the lawn with the hope of feeding the birds.
The old man stood and thought about his hungry childhood, when even for the holiday his mother mixed grass or seeds into the flour. She worked alone, and there were eight hungry people.
This old man knew the times of famine, he knows how bread was obtained. Picking up a piece of bread, he mentally bowed to the hard work of the people who grow it, and to the calloused hands of the grain grower. For an old man, bread is a sacred thing, which he will always treat with care. And he wants everyone, including the younger generation, to value bread in the same way.
2.2. What agricultural machines help people grow bread?
Children about the tractor
This material is especially interesting for boys!
Tell your child that before there were no cars and it was very difficult to grow bread. Nowadays, all the heavy work is done by machines. And a lot of them are needed to grow grain in the field and harvest. People have come up with amazing machines. Maybe when you grow up, you will also come up with something that will help all people.
The main machine is a tractor.
Why the main one? (Listen to the child's suggestions.)
A tractor is an amazing machine that moves its own path. You will learn how the tractor does this from the story (I give the text here based on the story by A. Ivich).
The tractor carries all the implements used to cultivate the land. This is a tractor.
What is the difference between a truck and a tractor? (Listen to the child’s suggestions and give the correct answer.) A truck carries a load in its back, and a tractor pulls the load behind it.
But the tractor is not a simple tractor, but an all-terrain vehicle.
Why do you think a tractor can be called an “all-terrain vehicle”? That's right, because he “walks everywhere” - both along the road and along a plowed field.
How is it that a tractor can go everywhere, even where an ordinary car cannot go? (Look at a tractor and a car with a child - pay attention to the wheels - let the child try to guess why this happens).
The tractor has small steel rollers - four on each side. The rollers are covered with steel belts. They are made of individual links, like a chain. These tapes are called "caterpillars"
. Find the caterpillars in the picture.
The rear wheel is geared. It engages the track links and moves the belt. Rollers roll along the belt as if on rails or on a flat road.
It turns out that the tractor makes its own road. Caterpillars are his path! That’s why he’s not afraid of off-road conditions!
The tractor works in the field from early spring to late autumn. Who's sitting in the driver's seat? ( tractor driver ). He drives a tractor.
The tractor does a lot of work. In the fall, a large plow is attached to the back of the tractor .
The plow lifts and turns the top layer of soil. This is how the tractor makes a soft bed for the seeds. So that the seeds are hidden in the ground from the wind and can take from the ground all the juices that they need for growth.
After this, the tractor harrows . If the crops are winter, they are sown before winter and then harrowed in the fall. If the crops are spring - they are sown in the spring - then they are harrowed in the spring. A harrow is attached to the tractor
. The harrow combs the ground with its teeth like a comb.
And the work of the tractor did not end there. Now it is no longer a harrow that is attached to it, but a cultivator.
The cultivator does not have teeth, but has…. Paws. Yes, that’s what they are called – “paws”. These paws loosen the ground and pull out weeds. So that weeds do not prevent wheat from growing!
Now the tractor has done a great job! You can attach a seeder to it. The seeder puts seeds into the ground.
It turned out that the seed was in the ground, it would germinate and shoot out with a green stem. Summer will come to an end, the ears will ripen. The grains in the ears are ripe and hard - it’s time to harvest the grain.
Then another machine comes onto the field - a real giant. It's called a "harvester".
Children about the combine and combine operators. Fun educational video for kids
Previously, it was difficult for people to harvest crops - they cut the spikelets with a sickle, then tied them into sheaves, put them on a cart, and took them to thresh. And now all this work on the field is done by smart machines - giant “harvesters”. Maybe you also have a food processor in your kitchen that helps mom? And on the field the combine is different - not like a kitchen one
.
He harvests grain and is therefore called a “grain harvester.”
From a short, fun, educational video about a combine harvester for kids, your children will learn:
The grain harvest is here! They are taking him to the elevator,
where the grain is stored. The grain is then taken to a flour mill where it is made into flour. And the finished flour will be taken to the bakery. Bread will be baked from flour at the bakery. The bread will be brought to the store, and we will buy it. This is how bread comes to our table.
Who is always in care? Tractor driver
in care.
He cherishes the field, he plows and sows. Who is always in care? Who is always in care? The truck
is being taken care of.
Carries fertilizers so that plants grow. Who is always in care? Rain
in care.
It will spill in the field, Kolosok will drink. Who is always in care? The combine operator
is in care.
He removes the rye, knows no rest. Who is always in care? The baker
is in care. He is a skilled craftsman, he bakes delicious bread. Who doesn't care? Doesn't he know Rain and Main? They ate the bread and cheered up: “Thank you!” Helio Myand.
"Bread Flower"
Yu. Yakovlev writes about the great value of bread in times of famine in the story “The Flower of Bread.” The boy Kolya felt hungry all the time. He ate everything that was edible. It was a hungry post-war time.
When grandma baked two fragrant wheat loaves, Kolya couldn’t get enough of them. In his imagination, they were like suns that smiled at him. He inhaled the smell of the cakes with pleasure, broke off a piece and dreamed that good times would come. He will eat these cakes every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This was the greatest happiness in his future life.
Then he took the loaf to his grandfather to the apiary. He himself had already eaten, but when he came to his grandfather, it seemed to him that his grandfather should share the loaf with him. But my grandfather did not do this. Kolya thought that his grandfather was being greedy. It turns out that the grandfather put the loaf back in the boy’s bag and sent him home. Arriving home, Kolya saw the loaf and was overwhelmed with joy. He realized that his grandfather was not greedy, but caring. He thought about his grandmother and grandson, and he ate bee water. She quenched her hunger. Kolya loved and respected his grandfather and also wanted his grandfather to try the delicious loaf. The boy wrapped it in a rag and put it in his grandfather's chest in the hope that his grandfather would return from the apiary, treat himself to bread and feel great joy from the satiety of bread. This is the “journey” made by the loaf of the post-war period. In those years, bread was the greatest value.
Part 2. How bread came to the table: a story for children in pictures and tasks
Ask your child: where does our bread come from at home? That's right, from the store! Where does it come from in the store?
Listen kindly and carefully to any of your child’s assumptions - observing his speech will help you understand what your child knows and where his ideas are inaccurate or erroneous, or even non-existent! And then invite your child to learn the secrets of how bread came to our table, what amazing machines help people make bread from grains.
2.1. How does wheat and rye grow?
Bread is made from grains. But how do these spikelets with grains grow in the field? What is white bread made from? (from wheat). What is black bread made from? (made from rye).
Why are wheat and rye called “grain” plants? (They give grain). What other grain plants are there? (Corn, oats).
With your child, look at the spikelet of rye and wheat in the picture and compare them. How are they similar? (These plants have a stem, tendrils, grains, they are grains) How are they different? (Rye grains are long, and wheat grains are round. A wheat spikelet is thicker than a rye spikelet)
After that, watch a short educational video for kids about how wheat grows in a field.
Video for children “How does wheat grow?”
From this short, entertaining, educational video for preschoolers, your child will learn:
After watching the video, be sure to talk to your child about the film, ask:
In the evening or the next day, play with your children in growing bread - a dramatization of a fairy tale will help you.
Lithuanian fairy tale. How the wolf decided to bake bread
This fairy tale is very good for dramatizing and reinforcing ideas about growing bread in children. In a skit, let the child explain to the wolf how bread is grown.
First, read a fairy tale to your child, and then invite him to play it.
One day a wolf met a man in the forest and asked: “Give me bread!” The man gave. The wolf ate it and licked his lips - the bread was delicious. The wolf says to the man: “What should I do so that I always have my own bread?” Teach me! “Okay,” the man agreed and began to teach the wolf. - First you need to plow the land... - And when you plow it, can you eat? - Not yet. We need to sow rye. - And when you sow, can you eat? - Not yet. We have to wait until she grows up. - And when he grows up, can he eat? - Not yet. We need to remove it. - And when you clean it up, can you eat it? - Not yet. We need to grind it down. - And when you grind it, can you eat it? - Not yet. We need to bake bread. - When you’re done baking, can you eat it? - Can. The wolf thought, thought and said: “I’d rather not bake bread if I wait so long.” Just as I have managed without bread until now, so, apparently, I will also manage.
Variant of the game - dramatization: You can play out the plot of this fairy tale in a different way by repeating the same dialogue with different characters (as in the fairy tale “Kolobok”). Your baby goes on a trip to the forest and treats all the animals with a piece of bread. Animals like bread, and every animal wants to know how to grow it. The child tells each animal how such delicious bread is grown (lists the sequence of work). But all the animals refuse to raise it, having learned what a long and hard work it is. In the game, the child plays the role of a person who comes to the forest. And the adult is the role of all the animals in turn. Having repeated the sequence of growing bread several times in the game, your baby will definitely not confuse anything. And he will be happy to play this game, because all children love to play!
From the age of 5, a child can be introduced to agricultural machinery that helps people in their work; with how different professions of people are interconnected - combine operator, tractor driver, agronomist and others.
Part 4. Proverbs and sayings about bread. Developing speech - reasoning
Ask a child (age 5 or older) to explain why they say this and why people came up with this proverb. This task develops the child’s ability to prove his point of view, that is, speech - reasoning.
Children 6-7 years old and older can be given a more difficult task - “find 5 proofs that this proverb about bread is true.” It is best to perform this speech exercise in a game. My favorite game that my little students love is the game "Bridge"
Useful tips from my practical experience of playing this game with proverbs and sayings:
Proverbs for playing with children on the topic “Bread”:
- Bread is the head of everything! (What does “head” mean? – the main one. Why is bread the main thing for everything?). - They realized that they were left without bread. (It is difficult for children to understand the figurative meaning of the word “danced”, so here it is better to use the direct meaning - if you dance and do not work, you will not grow bread). - Bread is father, water is mother. - Bread is a gift from God, father, breadwinner. - Bread and salt, and lunch is on. - If there is bread, there will be song. - The rye is ripe - get down to business. — A lot of snow means a lot of bread.+
More about bread You can find interesting materials for activities and games with children in the articles in the “The World Around Us” section:
1. A most interesting article in pictures “For children about professions. Confectioner". From it your children will learn:
You will take a real video journey into the workshop where the buns are baked. You will also receive a series of educational games with children in pictures!
2. Autumn traditions in Rus' - harvesting bread, seeing off migratory birds and more. Autumn is a gold weaver.
How do you introduce children to where bread came from? Is it possible to instill in modern children a caring attitude towards bread and other products of human labor? What are your children interested in learning about the world around them? What suggestions do you have? What else would be interesting to read about in the “The World Around Us” section of the site. I suggest discussing it in the comments after the article. I will be glad to all suggestions!
See you again on the “Native Path”!

Mashenka visited her grandparents in the village more than once. She really liked it here. In the morning she was woken up by a loud rooster. Colorful and fragrant flowers looked in through the window, and in the morning it was so pleasant to wash your face with water from the well. For breakfast, the grandmother poured warm fresh milk and gave her granddaughter a crust of fragrant bread. Granddaughter Mashenka loved milk and bread, but she didn’t like bread crusts and always tried to throw them away or hide them somewhere. The grandmother then found these crusts in the most inappropriate places and said to her granddaughter:
Summer was in full swing. In the forest, strawberries filled with fragrant juice. Chamomile meadows beckoned to admire flowers and butterflies. The sonorous stream offered to quench your thirst. It was pleasant and joyful to run barefoot through the morning dew. The children's parents received a long-awaited vacation and came to the village. Several days passed and everyone went into the forest to buy strawberries. Sasha took a saucer, Masha took a cup, mom and dad took a mug, grandparents took a small jar. The day turned out to be hot and sunny. The forest was full of strawberries. Everyone picked a lot of berries and sat down to rest in a clearing in the shade of a curly birch tree. Mom spread out an embroidered napkin, took out milk and sandwiches, and everyone began to have breakfast. The milk with strawberries was very tasty. Mashenka, as always, ate the crumbs of the bread and threw the top of the bread behind a stump. Then she heard someone snorting. She turned her head and saw a hedgehog.
Mashenka and the hedgehog set off on their journey. They walked through a small forest and entered a field. A golden glow spread across the horizon.
Mashenka boldly walked across the meadow to where the sun was shining. Very soon she approached the city gates. There were teddy bears near the gate. Mashenka was not at all surprised when they greeted her. The bears opened the gates and the girl entered the city. It was a wonderful city. Simply wonderful. The houses in the city were made of waffles, cookies and gingerbread. There were tables near many of the houses. They were made from multi-colored candies. Even the swings were made from candy canes. There were all kinds of sweet treats on the tables. Dolls in elegant dresses offered Mashenka cookies, candies, waffles, and cotton candy. In any house you could get a glass of lemonade or forfeit. Mashenka played hide and seek and chase with the dolls. With bears and dogs for forfeits. She was swinging on a swing and building a house out of cookies. Ate sugar roses. She really liked the city. By evening she was so tired that she decided to postpone the search for a fountain with spring water until the morning. The dolls put her to sleep in one of the houses on soft cotton candy. At night Mashenka had strange dreams. Here she is sitting at the table, and her grandmother cuts her a crust of bread. Mashenka extends her hand, and in her hand she has cotton candy. Mashenka opens the bread bin to take out a piece of bread, and instead of bread there is a sweet chocolate cake. All night Mashenka tried to pick up a piece of bread, and nothing worked. In the morning the girl was woken up by the dolls. They were elegant and beautiful. Mashenka’s entire dress was stained with syrup. Cotton candy and cookie crumbs stuck to the dress. Fingers stuck to each other.
Mashenka approached the queen and she handed her a small bag of grains.
- Tomorrow morning before sunrise you will leave the city. You will find a magical clearing in the forest not far from the spring and plant these grains. Only in a magical meadow can grains grow in one day.
- Mashenka, the hedgehog told me that you will bake bread. I brought you some milk.

Cautionary tales
I really love short, wise fairy tales, when only the most important things are said in a few sentences. I recently read a couple of wonderful educational tales that I want to share with you:
Latvian fairy tale about bread
One day, a wolf, exhausted from hunger, asked a shepherd for food. The shepherd gave the wolf a large piece of bread.
“What delicious food you people have,” said the wolf. - If we ate such food, we would not attack your sheep. How is it made?
“It’s a long story,” said the shepherd. “First we need to plow the land.”
"No. Wait a minute. Then you need to sow the land.”
“Wait a minute. I told you, it’s a long story.”
And the shepherd continued to tell the wolf a long chain of agricultural operations about how to wait for the harvest, then reap, stack, thresh, dry, grind, bake... The wolf kept getting involved with the question: “And can I eat?” And at the end he said: “You people have delicious food, but it’s difficult. Apparently, we will attack your sheep.”
All human life is a mixture of difficult and tasty, difficult and beautiful. A huge amount of work goes into the light of an ordinary light bulb or the stream of water from a tap. This other people's work needs to be appreciated, and the best way is to work yourself. Only what has been washed by mom gets dirty easily. What he washed and ironed himself is taken care of more carefully and is reluctant to get dirty.
Serbian tale of the beggar king
Once upon a time there was a king who set out on a journey by sea with his wife and daughter, and they were shipwrecked. They washed ashore in an unknown country. There, not knowing the crafts, they began to herd other people's sheep, leading a miserable life. It happened, however, that the king of that country was looking for a bride for his son. They walked around the kingdom, saw all the girls - and chose a dazzlingly beautiful poor girl - the daughter of this shepherd. The prince offered her his hand and heart, but the girl’s father gave her an ultimatum: “I won’t give up my daughter until you, prince, learn one of the crafts.” The prince was indignant, but obeyed the will of his future father-in-law and learned to weave mats. He wove two pieces and came again to woo.
“How much does one mat cost?” - asked the shepherd. “Two pennies,” answered the prince. “How long did it take you to weave them?” "Per day". “Four pennies a day...” thought the old man. - OK. Take my daughter." “Thank you, father. But now explain why you need all this? After all, I am a prince. I will need to run the country, not weave mats.” “Oh, son,” answered the shepherd. “And I was a king.” But if I could at least weave mats, then after the loss of the kingdom my family would have lived a little better.”
From the book “The First Miracle” (Archpriest Andrei Tkachev)
