Relevance of the topic
A child’s first ideas about himself and the world around him are usually very fragmented and unsystematic.
Adult task
– to help understand and understand the diversity of the world. Our students, like many of their peers, travel a lot. Together with their parents, children travel to memorable places in our country, and also vacation in many foreign countries. In selecting countries to familiarize ourselves with, we decided to rely on the children’s existing experience.
Children's acquaintance with the countries and peoples of the world must begin with the organization of a developing subject-spatial environment. To do this, our group began collecting materials on this topic:
– selection of illustrations, pictures, photos (national costume, flag and coat of arms of the country, famous monuments, attractions, etc.);
– selection of works of world artistic culture (fairy tales, poems, folklore of the peoples of the world);
– selection of outdoor games from different countries;
– selection of interesting educational information about the capitals of states, traditions of peoples, main attractions.
Introducing children to the countries and peoples of the world, world culture and world values, the best literary works and attractions and familiarizing them with them is an important educational task. For preschoolers, familiarization with the culture of different peoples is a world of unknown things and vivid impressions. If this world becomes close and understandable from childhood, then the child will develop a need to learn historical information, high cognitive activity, and a desire to appreciate the merits of the cultures of other peoples, which, undoubtedly, will be an integral feature of his spiritual formation and social development.
This is what determined the choice of the topic of project activity.
Objective of the project:
Expanding the horizons of preschoolers, developing regional competence.
Project objectives:
Educational:
To cultivate interest and respect for people of different nationalities, their traditions and culture. Cultivate a readiness for mutual assistance in the process of communicating with adults and peers. Develop self-confidence and positive self-esteem by creating a situation of success in various types of children's activities.
Educational:
To develop communication skills in preschoolers through creative interaction with adults and peers. Support children's initiative, desire for cognitive and research activities and independence in the implementation of creative ideas. Develop the ability to carry out the components of an activity: perception of a goal, planning an activity, choosing a means to achieve a goal in the process of joint planning of a travel route. Develop mental operations: analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, classification. Develop volitional self-regulation of behavior.
Educational:
Introduce the cultural traditions of the peoples of the world and the sights of countries. Expand preschoolers’ understanding of the lives of people in other countries. Systematize knowledge about the ethnographic conditions of the population of different states.
Planned results:
My horizons have expanded.
Initial ideas about the life of people in different countries and interest in the culture of other peoples appeared.

Report to the project:
I would start my journey with the cities that arose in modern times.
Novosibirsk
It appeared at the beginning of the 20th century, and can be classified as a city of modern times. Novosibirsk is a large city with a population of 1.6 million people. The most famous sights of Novosibirsk are the oceanarium, the opera and ballet theater, the local history museum, and the arboretum.
From Novosibirsk you can go to St. Petersburg.
Saint Petersburg.
It was founded by Peter the Great in 1703, that is, at the beginning of the 18th century. This is one of the most beautiful cities in Russia and the whole world. It has many unique palaces, cathedrals, and drawbridges across the Neva.
The most important sights of the northern capital are the Peter and Paul Fortress and the Winter Palace. Any guide will tell you about them in detail.
NY.
Now we will go overseas and visit New York.
It is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the United States, which lies on numerous islands off the east coast of America. The largest and most famous of them is Manhattan Island, the historical center of New York. The symbol of the metropolis is the wonderful Statue of Liberty.
New York was founded in the early 17th century, in 1624, by English settlers.
Hamburg.
Let's return to Western Europe.
Hamburg was founded in 810. This is one of the most beautiful metropolises in Germany, with many theaters, churches and palaces. Hamburg is a seaport and in the Middle Ages it was one of the centers of European trade.
Rome.
The eternal city of Rome is located in Italy. It was founded in the 8th century BC. It is a monument city that houses the famous Colosseum and St. Paul's Cathedral.
The central part of Rome is occupied by the Vatican, a region-state in which the residence of the Pope, the head of all Catholics, is located. In the square in front of the Vatican is the most famous fountain in Europe - Trevi.
Athens.
We will end our journey into the past in Athens
Historians still do not know the exact time when it was founded.
They name the date – 7th millennium BC. Athens is one of the oldest cities on the entire planet. And he is very handsome. In the center of Athens, on a hill, lies the Acropolis, an ancient temple complex topped by the ruins of the famous Parthenon. Photos of these monuments will decorate any album.
Conclusion:
There are a variety of cities in the world, very ancient and very young. Each of them has its own history, attractions and is beautiful in its own way. Each one contains people who love their hometown and are proud of it. There is so much beauty and wonder in the world!
