Consultation for parents “Daily routine and its importance in the development of a preschool child”

Doctors, psychologists, and teachers talk about the benefits of the regime for both children and adults. Our physical health, psychological and emotional status depend on diet, sleep and rest. And if we are talking about a child, then the regime is also the basis of proper upbringing.

It turns out that for a preschool child, the concept of regime is a daily routine, which includes the routine of sleep, nutrition, activities and rest, games and walks. Parents of children 5-7 years old who attend preschool think less about the routine. But parents of preschoolers who do not attend kindergarten and follow a home regime have more questions.

Why do we need a regime?

In a situation where there is no regime, the child may experience:

• hyperactivity
• hyperexcitability
• memory impairment
• decreased performance
• fast fatiguability
• frequent respiratory diseases

Why is this happening? The daily routine for a baby is not only a convenience for the parent or an adult whim that encourages the child to accustom himself to a strict daily routine. The habitual regime reinforces the formation of biorhythms and conditioned reflexes, preparing the body to perform habitual functions, such as sleep, eating, mental activity, and rest.

In addition, adherence to the regime has a positive effect on physical health, as the regime strengthens the immune system. In preschool institutions, the daily routine is strictly observed. But when bringing a preschooler home, parents do not always adhere to the routine, forgetting to put the baby to bed on time in the flow of evening worries, which leads to lack of sleep and, consequently, problems with waking up in the morning.

Tips for organizing a child's daily routine

Here are some of the recommendations that are important to follow for the health and full development of the child:

• Wake up earlier (recommended wake-up time for preschool children is 7.30);
• Balance the diet (eating by the hour, completely eliminating sweet and starchy snacks);
• Organize walks at the same time (at least 1.5 hours, depending on weather conditions);
• Intellectual loads should be given mainly in the first half of the day;
• Do not forget about daytime sleep, which should last 1.5 - 2 hours a day. A full day's sleep, as well as a night's sleep, is important in the development of preschool children; at this time, the nervous system is unloaded, as well as the assimilation of information received during the day. At the same time, do not put your child to bed after 15.00 - otherwise he will fall asleep late at night (6 hours is enough for play and preparation for proper rest).

ABC of the regime

There are rules in all areas of our lives, and they also exist in observing the regime. As we said above, there is a diet for preschoolers, physical activity, sleep, games, and activities.

Diet. If we are talking about proper nutrition, then the regime is most accurately followed in preschool institutions, so it is worth focusing specifically on the organization of nutrition in kindergarten:

• at least 4 times a day;
• a hot meal at least 3 times a day;
• according to daily caloric needs: breakfast 25%, lunch 40%, afternoon snack 15%, dinner 20%;
• according to the daily calorie intake: 5 years - 2000 kcal, 6 years - 2200 kcal, 7 years - 2400 kcal;
• by quantity - you should not give a portion larger than the child usually eats (it is better to add a supplement).

The menu should include meat and dairy products, bread, vegetables and fruits every day.

In terms of time, the mode is built like this:

• breakfast at 8-9 o'clock,
• lunch at 12-13 o'clock,
• afternoon tea at 15-16 hours,
• dinner at 18:30-19:30 hours.

Meal times should be the same on weekdays and weekends.

It is advisable that the last meal be an hour and a half before bedtime.

Mode of physical activity and rest. Every day a child makes many movements, so physical activity means not only physical education, but also active games, sports, movement and relaxation. And here, too, there is a regime that ensures proper physical development.

• The peak of physical activity should occur in the first half of the day.
• Weekly physical activity for children 5-7 years old is 6-8 hours per week, according to SanPiN.
• Morning exercises are required.
• Physical education classes in a preschool institution - 3 times a week: children 5 years old - 25 minutes, children 6-7 years old - 30 minutes.
• Outdoor active games while walking (in bad weather they are replaced by a full set of exercises indoors).
• Physical education minutes between mental activities.
• Exercising after a nap.
• Moderately active games on the second walk.

Moderate physical activity should be observed immediately before breakfast, before mental activities and in the evening before bed.

Sleeping mode. A proper sleep schedule helps restore your baby's mental and physical strength that was spent on the active part of his day. Not only his psycho-emotional state, but also his physical health depends on how a child’s sleep is organized. Healthy sleep means strong immunity. And now, in order.

• Sleep duration for preschoolers: 5-6 years old - 12 hours, 7 years old - 10-11 hours. But much is individual - depending on temperament and workload, the required time for sleep may increase.
• Morning awakening should occur at 7:00-8:00, it depends on biorhythms and family habits, but you should not wake up later.
• Daytime sleep in children 5-6 years old lasts 1-1.5 hours. At 7 years old, a baby may refuse to sleep, but active children need about 1 hour of sleep.
• Evening bedtime depends on the presence of additional physical or emotional stress. It is recommended that children aged 5-6 years go to bed at 20:30 - 21:00. At 7 years old it is possible to shift the time of falling asleep by half an hour.

Mode of exercise (mental activity) . Both kindergarteners and children who do not attend kindergarten are not deprived of developmental activities in preschool age. But like any other activity, the time and number of classes must be correctly distributed and systematized. In other words, the home regime should not differ much from the regime in preschool institutions. The organization of classes in the general daily routine is as follows:

In the morning after breakfast - two or three multidirectional classes. Duration of classes according to age: 4-5 years - 20-25 minutes per type; 6-7 years - 30-35 minutes.

If the walk is cancelled, you can add another creative activity or educational game.

Approximate daily routine in a preschool institution

Have you ever wondered why preschoolers’ day is structured this way? Why are the first half of the training sessions provided for by the program in which the child is developing? Why is there such a time interval between meals?

Scientists in the field of childhood development have observed and found that it is during this period of time that food is better absorbed in the child’s body, releasing more useful substances. This has a beneficial effect on both digestion, without overloading the stomach with snacks, and on the development of the child’s brain activity.

The hourly period from 9.00 to 12.00 is a “cheerful” time for assimilation of information. In the first half of the day, children's brains do not sleep - they work, absorb new knowledge. With irregular intellectual stress, the nervous system and psychological state are in a relaxed state, which leads to low academic performance, passive physical development, and this is a consequence of a decrease in the body’s functioning, including against viral diseases. Children who strictly follow a daily routine, are organized, independent, inquisitive and intellectually developed.

In combination, daily routine + mental stress + physical focus = strengthening the nervous system, immunity, general development.

If a child often stays at home or does not attend kindergarten, it is recommended to carefully approach his all-round development. It is necessary to divide the day into energetic and passive parts according to age and psychological characteristics.

Lesson notes on OBP “What is the daily routine?”

Each child has a flower in his hands. The teacher passes the flower with a wish to the child, and he passes it to the next one; the bouquet gradually increases, and a whole bouquet is returned to the teacher - a bouquet of wishes. Wish health, wish goodness to others, and it will definitely come back to you!

Additional classes, sections and clubs

When creating your child’s daily routine further, feel free to include in the remaining time those sections and circles that you have chosen together with your child. In this matter, the main thing is not to overload the child; it would be better to have 2-3 sections, but visiting them will truly become an enjoyable time for the preschooler.

At home, parents can also independently study with their child using special manuals that will help instill in their child basic knowledge of mathematics, the world around them, and tell them how to teach their child to read and write. Also keep in mind that the optimal time during which a 5-7 year old child can concentrate is 20-40 minutes, after which he needs to switch to vigorous activity.
