How and where to celebrate February 23?
On this day, it is very important not to forget to congratulate our fathers and grandfathers. Be sure to please them with a visit or at least a call and good wishes. After all, they were the ones who protected you while you were very little. And, of course, this day is an excellent occasion to get together with the family for a festive lunch or dinner.
But this is not at all necessary. Pay attention and be sure to congratulate. Listen to your loved ones. Maybe your man is stressed out at work and just wants to spend time alone with you for one day? Or maybe he hasn’t seen his old friends for a long time and wouldn’t mind having fun with them? A romantic dinner or a party - why isn’t February 23 a reason for such events?
A very unusual format for such a holiday: come to an agreement and gather a group of male friends in one place that corresponds to their common interest. Bar, fishing, hunting, sauna, paintball and much, much more. Sometimes such an event can be better than any material gift. Going outdoors, of course, largely depends on the weather; February is usually a little cold for such events. But nevertheless, you may get lucky. Visit the ski resort, barbecue and play snow war. Courageous! And just throw a party: gather guests, come up with competitions and themed snacks.
A romantic dinner at home or in a restaurant, a family evening with pizza in front of the TV - why not? If you don’t manage to spend time like this often, then there is nothing strange about it. It's a day off and you need to take advantage of it. The main thing is to listen to your family and try to guess how they want to spend their time.
How to spend February 23 interesting in kindergarten? Methodological development (senior group)
How interesting is it to spend February 23 in kindergarten?
Defender of the Fatherland Day or February 23 in kindergarten is a serious holiday. If earlier we glorified military service, and everyone dreamed of raising a truly defender of the fatherland, now the priorities have changed somewhat. February 23 in kindergarten is a suitable occasion to tell the boys what courage and bravery are, to instill love for their country, and to raise patriots.
Defender of the Fatherland Day should be remembered by all children who go to kindergarten. Therefore, the task of educators is to figure out, together with the girls, how best to congratulate their boys on February 23rd.
The process of preparing for February 23 in kindergarten perfectly unites the group and develops the creative side of children’s character. Don’t miss this opportunity and devote the whole day to this memorable date.
Group decoration for the holiday.
You cannot celebrate February 23 in kindergarten without appropriate military decorations, especially if there are many contests and competitions.
Stars, banners, postcards, the flag of the Russian Federation, balls, ribbons, flags, planes and tanks - hung on the walls. Medals for battalion commanders, arrows with bows as weapons, toy pistols, swords and swords. You can make a tin of “men’s” attire - a helmet, a cap, a cap, a budenovka and a weapon.
“Exhibition of military equipment and parade of troops” - line up all the soldiers, superheroes, equipment (cars, airplanes, rockets and ships) in orderly rows.
All this will help children be transported to a completely different “world” that requires ingenuity, courage and leadership qualities from them.
The first half of the day.
Before February 23, in kindergarten, you can give the children the task of preparing with their parents a story about defenders of the fatherland who perform feats every day: for example, firefighters and military personnel. Let the guys describe examples of their dangerous and difficult service.
You can agree and invite a policeman dad or a military dad. You'll see, the children will have a lot of questions: whether girls are accepted into the army, how to use a gas mask, and what needs to be done to receive a rank. If, for the sake of clarity, all the boys are given the feeling of being a soldier who is looking out for the enemy through binoculars, then the boys will become very proud.
What can you organize with children?
Viewing an exhibition of paintings (“Three Heroes”, “Hussars”, “Knights”, etc.).
Reading fiction - about the defenders of the Fatherland, our Motherland. Russian folk tale “Nikita Kozhemyaka”, A. Tvardovsky “Tankman’s Tale”, K. Selikhov, Y. Deryugin “On Red Square”, T. Belozerov “Eternal Flame”, etc.,
You can listen to musical works with your children about the Motherland, the army, and epics retold for children “Bogatyrs and Knights of the Russian Land.”
Children will be happy to listen to the stories of participants in the Great Patriotic War, and in the future, children can tell themselves about their great-grandfathers and great-grandmothers who participated in hostilities, worked on the home front, children of the war, or about their fathers - defenders of the Fatherland.
During classes, make applications and crafts on the topics: “Defenders of the Fatherland”, “Our Army”, “My Motherland”, “Victory Day”, “Heroes of the Russian Land”, etc. Then, you can organize exhibitions and competitions of works, mold 3 from plasticine heroes.
You can organize a little themed entertainment:
-Divide the boys into teams and arrange competitions for them to identify the bravest, fastest and most dexterous.
- Borrow gas masks - putting them on will make little children laugh.
— Girls are involved in the judging process; they can also provide the boys with the necessary details for holding the next competition.
- Come up with fictional enemies who have captured girls, whom the boys must free, some can be given the roles of nurses from a military hospital providing assistance to soldiers who, according to the script, were also wounded. Some girls can be hidden anywhere in the kindergarten, and the scout boys can be given routes. To save others, you can ask for a deposit in the form of accurate hits on the target.
— To imitate a victory fireworks display at the end of the day, you can burst balloons, this will surely amaze the children.
“It’s better to change the group commander so that each boy can prove himself as a real captain.”
-After defeating the “invaders”, as gratitude for the rescue, the girls will give their souvenirs to the boys and invite them to sit at the “sweet” table.
- Another option, when the girls will be princesses, and the boys will be knights who free them: either you need to awaken the princess from sleep (sing a song loudly), then cross the gorge (step from chair to chair), or solve an intellectual riddle. All these competitions will help the children feel that they too can perform heroic deeds. The main thing is to start, and then there will be no heroics.
The main thing is to interest the children, involve them as much as possible in the preparation process, and then the teachers will have less work, and the children will look forward to February 23 in kindergarten.
Walk.
For a walk we dress like a soldier - while the match (flashlight) is burning
We should not forget about sports games and competitions that can be held on the street.
These include competition games: “Battle of Maces”, “Capture of a Fortress”, “Dashing Rider”, “Cockfighting”, “Sharp Shooter”, “Clear the Field”, “Crossing”, “Report”, “Who is Faster/Farther” slide down the hill on sleds, skis, ice skates.
During lunch, you can arrange the tables in an unusual way, for example, in rows and have lunch as in a soldier’s canteen, announcing a competition “Whose plate will be the cleanest.”
Afternoon.
When getting up after a nap, you can use a sound signal
“Rota rise!”, or any other of the teacher’s choice.
1. Invite children to watch a cartoon:
2. Sadko the rich” (Soyuzmultfilm, 1975)
3. Cartoons from the series: “Epics. Vasilisa Mikulishna" (Soyuzmultfilm, 1975)
4. “The Childhood of Ratibor” (Soyuzmultfilm, 1973.
5. “Dobrynya Nikitich” (Soyuzmultfilm, 1965)
6. “Ilya Muromets” (Soyuzmultfilm, 1975)
7. “Ilya Muromets and the Nightingale the Robber” (Soyuzmultfilm, 1978)
8. “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign” (Kievnauchfilm, 1972)
9. “Alyosha Popovich and Tugarin the Serpent”
10. “Dobrynya Nikitich and Zmey Gorynych.”
For free activities of children, you can use board games:
“Who needs what”, “Cut-out pictures”, “Who can assemble a machine gun faster”, “On land, in the air, at sea”, etc.
It has become a good tradition to hold the Defender of the Fatherland Day holiday in kindergarten with the participation of parents and children. This phenomenon, of course, strengthens the patriotic education of children, contributes to the formation of moral values in preschoolers, and instills in them the concept of the Motherland, family, and a sense of duty.
Interestingly selected competitions for February 23 in kindergarten will not leave indifferent either the shyest boys or the most serious dads.
How to please a man on February 23
On this day, let your man relax. Wake up early, get yourself ready, wear something attractive, prepare him breakfast in bed. Well, you should know what he loves most.
Bake pancakes for your beloved son and decorate them with whipped cream. A festive breakfast in honor of the day off will bring the family together and make the relationship even warmer.
You can jokingly make your men a distinctive element, such as a crown or cap made of paper: as a sign that today is their day and they will get everything they want!
Before going to bed, give your loved one a massage, light some candles and let him relax and unwind. Hugs and kind words won't hurt. On this day, you should pamper your man thoroughly, praising his masculine virtues and qualities, thanking him for his protection and support.
What to gift? Gift ideas for February 23
All women ask this question. Jokes about socks and deodorant are sweeping the web. How not to go wrong with a gift? What should you pay attention to?
One of the best gifts is the fulfillment of a dream. Think, maybe your significant other is saving up for something serious and has little left? All you have to do is steal your stash, add funds and buy! Maybe there is some little thing that he has always wanted, but it doesn’t seem to be particularly useful, so he doesn’t want to spend money on it himself? This is a great option. But if the case is such that “I have everything, I don’t need anything,” then it’s more complicated. Yes, everything will come in handy in everyday life and a gift set of shampoo and shower gel will be used sooner or later. But will it bring joy to its recipient? Always think more about the person's reaction and desire to receive something than about the benefits of the gift. The best gifts are always personal and related to interests, passions, your history and life experiences.
Stores can offer us a million things. Unusual keychains, souvenirs, mugs, soft toys, accessories and you can find something for everyone. A “stinker” in the car for a car enthusiast, a disc of a favorite artist for a music lover (or even a record for very notorious lovers of classic old school music), a pillow or blanket for a sleeper, and much more. In addition, every day the following phenomenon becomes more and more popular: give an act. A skydiving certificate, a gym membership, a trial archery class, that sort of thing. Think, maybe your man lacks the drive and motivation to try something like this?
Don't chase the theme of the holiday. There is no need to buy everything that is khaki color: it can get boring. In addition, you can complement any gift with a themed postcard with a joke or good wish.

DIY gift for February 23
Don't rule out the option of making a gift yourself. A sweater knitted by yourself is probably more pleasant to receive than a purchased one: not only money, but also effort was invested into it. Paint a portrait, make an unusual collage or calendar, a papier-mâché organizer, a cute felted toy or a statue made of beer bottles... The choice is yours.
By the way, about funds. Men can be very vulnerable in this regard. Don't spend too much money so as not to hurt his pride or embarrass him. In addition, a man may feel an obligation to give you something equally expensive on March 8, although he may not have such an opportunity. And if you have a common budget, then disagreements may arise because of this. Be careful!
Remember that the most important thing is attention and care, gratitude for what men do for us every day. And such a holiday once a year is the least we can repay! Daily passion for each other and attentiveness, support and understanding are what are even more important.
Make those who are dear to you happy!
Share with your friends!
