Author: Natalia Aleksandrovna Klyuka, teacher of additional education for children, Ecological and Biological Center, Dzerzhinsk, Nizhny Novgorod region. Features of Pushkin's fairy tales are a dynamic plot, unusual situations and events full of miracles and luxury. And since every detail in them is natural, closely related to life or taken from the world surrounding the child, it is very easy to read and understand them. Many heroes of Pushkin's fairy tales behave like people from a working, peasant environment. They do not shy away from simple physical labor: lighting the stove, cleaning the house, thereby helping to instill in children respect for work. Pushkin's fairy tales are written in verse, but children always perceive them with a bang, since they are presented in simple and understandable language. Each fairy tale contains aphorisms and an accessible explanation of what conclusion the child should draw after reading. And, most importantly, absolutely all of Pushkin’s fairy tales foster noble feelings. I offer a literary quiz based on the fairy tales of A.S. Pushkin, addressed to primary school students.

“The fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it!
A lesson to good fellows." (A.S. Pushkin) Brief biographical information. The great Russian poet and writer Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin was born in Moscow on June 6, 1799. From early childhood, Pushkin grew up and was brought up in a literary environment, so we can say with confidence that his future was predetermined. Alexander Sergeevich’s father was a connoisseur of literature, had a large library, his uncle was a famous poet, who was often visited by many famous literary figures of that time. His nanny, Arina Rodionovna, had a huge influence on the future poet, whom the poet will remember throughout his life and devote many literary works to her. In 1811, his father and uncle decide to send 12-year-old Pushkin to the newly opened Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum. The role of the Lyceum in the development of Pushkin’s personality is difficult to overestimate; it was there that he began to write his first poems, met and became friends with such famous people in the future as Ivan Pushchin, Wilhelm Kuchelbecker, Anton Delvig and many others, whose friendship would last his entire life. In 1814, the first poem of the then fifteen-year-old Pushkin, “To a Friend the Poet,” was published. After graduating from the Lyceum in 1817, Pushkin did not return to Moscow, but moved to St. Petersburg, where he joined the College of Foreign Affairs. And after three years, Pushkin completed his famous poem “Ruslan and Lyudmila”. In 1830, Pushkin wooed, and in 1831 he married Natalya Goncharova. Before his marriage, he went to an estate in Boldino, where he was forced to stay due to quarantine. This period in Pushkin’s work is called the Boldin Autumn, during which he wrote a large number of literary works of various genres. On February 9, 1837, Pushkin fought a duel with Dantes, was mortally wounded and died on February 10 in his house on the Moika. He was 37 years old.
