Skating

Ice skating is one of the most popular and fashionable winter activities. When, in the second half of the 19th century, the first artificial ice, no one imagined that the ladies and gentlemen of the Victorian era would be seriously carried away by skates. Moreover, the British, going on an ice walk, first of all thought about how they would look. Therefore, clothes were chosen especially carefully. As a result, this entertainment turned into a real secular outlet. Russian aristocrats did not lag behind the European ones. True, unlike the inhabitants of foggy Albion, they had to ride under the open sky. But neither frost nor snow could keep them at home. They met at the rink, fell in love and just walked. The fashion for such a pastime has gone and returned. But no matter how many years and centuries pass, both men and women go on the ice not so much to do all sorts of “eights”, triple “flips” and double “sheepskin coats”. How much in order to just enjoy sliding on the ice and make new acquaintances.

We are sure that you will not want to sit at home with the whole family watching TV and miss another season of fashionable holidays today. Communicate! Before going to the rink, think through everything to the smallest detail. First you have to work on your image. Do you want to look like a real athlete? Dress in trousers and favorably emphasize the harmony of your figure. And if you like to ride in the fresh air, don't forget to wear a wool cap and gloves.

You don't have to be in great shape to skate. Moreover, even if you have never stood on the ice, this is not a reason to refuse such pleasure. After all, about a quarter of the people who come to the skating rink have difficulty moving their feet along the mirror surface, instead of sliding smoothly. In fact, the main condition is that you just need to really want to ride.

But before you take the first step, learn to fall. The main mistake that almost all beginners make is falling head first. Practice at home with your family members to correctly group and fall to the floor. To avoid serious injury, you need to try to fall on the outer part of the thigh; press your hands to your chest so as not to damage weak wrist joints; tilt your head forward as much as possible - so that the under-chin touches the chest. Bruises and bruises are not a hindrance to skating. Unfortunately, you cannot do without them, but do not rush to abandon your plans. Try to treat falls as a necessity and at the same time a great opportunity to develop willpower.

Do not forget about the emotional mood. At every opportunity, watch fi-gurists perform on TV or go to competitions. You can buy a video cassette with an ice show - wonderful! Enjoying the performances of professionals, at the same time mentally transport yourself to the ice arena. Imagine that you are the master of skating technique, and the audience applauds you. A little patience, perseverance, and the day will come when you will learn to skate! And so that everyone around will look at you with admiration. And then you will definitely experience an indescribable feeling of freedom and joy. It will seem to you that you are not sliding on a mirror surface, but soaring in the sky like a bird - your body will become so obedient and light. And this is not surprising. Because skating not only trains all the muscles and helps to develop a beautiful posture - it is also an excellent remedy for a bad mood.

snow sculptures

However, the range of winter entertainment is by no means limited to ice skating. If you have never got up on skates and do not want to do this, but skiing is last time put on at a physical education lesson, do not despair. It is within your power to do winter holidays memorable for all family members. One of the most exciting activities is snow modeling. We advise you to organize a family snow sculpture competition. Let your imagination run wild and outlandish snow creatures will appear: animals, cars, various compositions. A special topic is the culinary competition, when participants make cakes of various shapes and sizes. They can be painted with paints, and if you gently douse the sculptures with water, they will freeze and last longer. Surely someone will see interesting option construction of a snow cave or labyrinth. If you create on your own suburban area, then you can be sure that no one will break or spoil your work.

Do not forget to capture on camera or film the sculptures you like along with their authors. By the way, snow modeling is not only an interesting pastime. This great way shake off the burden of problems. This family winter entertainment is not traumatic. Wherein interesting stay being outdoors is very beneficial for the health of all family members. Modeling can involve not only young family members, but also grandparents.

Other winter activities

A winter walk is the best fit for a joint holiday for children and parents, and it will certainly be fun for both. Who doesn't sometimes get tempted to make a snowball and throw it after a bundled-up toddler or fashionable teenage son? Snowball fights are one of the most popular winter games and can be easily modified to your liking. In addition to the usual "shootout" and storming the snow fortress, you can practice almost Olympic sports - target shooting or ring throws. For the last game, it is not necessary to look for a basket: you can get by with a circle of the desired diameter. For this role, for example, a plastic hoop, an old bucket without a bottom is suitable. By attaching an "improvised tool" to a tree or a pole, you can safely start the competition.

Another exciting activity, most suitable for winter time, is the game of trackers. After all, in the snow, the tracks are visible especially clearly. If your child is not yet familiar with traces of birds or animals, then this event will be educational in nature. In addition, you can pay attention to the baby and other traces. For example, on the trail of your own boots or shoes, sledges, buckets or other toys, cars and other traces. In the event that the "pathfinder" is experienced enough, you can start guessing the owner of the trail.

In winter, you can play treasure hunting with children if the snow is loose enough. As a treasure, any rubber toy will come in handy. The one who found it first becomes the leader - hides the treasure from the rest.

However, winter holidays are not only sports games. Walking through a snow-covered park, city streets can bring a lot of pleasure. If your child cannot decently enjoy the views winter nature, offer a competition: who will remember more songs or poems about winter. Another option is to take a camera with you and instruct the "correspondent" to make a photo report on your joint walk. It will be interesting to look at the winter shots of those places that you shot at other times of the year, and then you can make a kind of collage on the theme of changing seasons. If you are walking with children in the forest or park, do not forget to stock up on nuts: you can not only feed the squirrels, but also add food to the bird feeders. You will do a good deed, and an ordinary walk will bring a different shade: how often do city children manage to personally communicate with wildlife?

"Non-flying weather"

In the event that the weather is not suitable for a walk, remember another primordial winter highlight - patterns on the windows. Who in childhood did not admire the “paintings of Santa Claus” in amazement? Forget about the fact that the frost on the window blocks your outdoor thermometer or the view of the car below. Come closer and look at the bizarre weaves of snow lines. Isn't it true, some fabulous images immediately come to mind? Perhaps you and your children will compose some kind of fairy tale yourself based on the patterns you see.

Winter daylight hours are short. In addition, the weather is not always favorable. long walks. Therefore, in winter most we have to spend time indoors. However, in this you can find pleasure, inaccessible at other times of the year. Who refuses to sit with the whole family at a “delicious” table in warmth and comfort, while a blizzard is sweeping outside the window? At such moments, it is especially pleasant to escape from the constant fuss and urgent matters, paying attention to the most important thing - your loved ones.

If you while away the winter evenings at home, remember what your hands have not reached for a long time. Take up your favorite knitting, embroidery, sorting out photos or collections, reading a book that has been laid aside. There is sure to be something for every member of the family to do. After all, it has long been noticed that all our hobbies are an excellent means not only to spend time. But also restore peace of mind, and at the same time relax. Children can also be involved in such a pastime: a TV and a computer - yes, not much best options for regular evening rest.

Get your sleigh ready in summer

This proverb is the best suited to winter period. When, if not in winter frosts, are we especially drawn to warmth and the sun? Probably, many will agree that in winter it is very pleasant to dream about summer, looking at last year's photos. Probably, for someone, the best winter entertainment will be traveling to warm countries. However, summer is still the traditional holiday season. But now you have the opportunity to plan and think over your vacation in advance. In this case, you will have enough time to consider several options and take into account all the necessary details. Dreams and memories are another traditional winter activity.

And finally, I want to say: “Long live the snow!” Probably, only for motorists and public utilities snowdrifts and snowfalls are a source of problems. And for everyone else, it gives a great opportunity to enjoy winter entertainment for the whole family, relax in the fresh air or dream in cozy warmth.

Interaction with a child on a walk can be a very important and productive component of his development. But for many parents, walking is simply “walking” the child when he is given the opportunity to breathe. fresh air move around, meet peers.

Despite the fact that it is cold outside, you should not stay at home in front of the TV or computer. The already short winter days are best spent outdoors. So, it is useful to take a walk with a child in a snow-covered park or square, where it is especially beautiful at this time of the year, breathe fresh air, feed the birds, make a snowman.

Note to parents:skiing from the hill can be diversified with all sorts of tasks. For example, going down a hill on a sled, throwing snowballs at a target, collecting flags or twigs placed on the descent.

Organize fun games for the child and his friends in the park, in the yard.

Trees are suitable as "inventory", you can hide behind them.

Stumps that you can climb and jump on, run around them.

Join the game yourself, play fun with pleasure. In the course of joint activities, the child develops the skills of interaction and communication. The use of gaming exercises and outdoor games is an effective means of generating interest in physical activity, which is one of the main things in strengthening and maintaining the health of children, introducing them to a healthy lifestyle.

Outdoor games with kids:

"Pathfinders"

Children love to look at their own footprints in the freshly fallen snow. Do not be too lazy to find information on the Internet about what the traces of different animals and birds look like. After that, go to the forest or park and try to find and decipher the traces of some kind of living creature.

"Trace to trace"

Tell your child about how wolves walk in a pack (track by track). And after that, offer to play catch-up, but with one condition: the one who catches up must follow the escaping trail to the next.

"Snow Flowers"

Prepare for experience:

straw,

Soap bubble solution

When a cloud forms at a very low temperature, instead of raindrops, water vapor condenses into tiny needles of ice; needles stick together, and snow falls to the ground. Snow flakes consist of small crystals arranged in the form of stars of amazing regularity and variety. Each asterisk is divided into three, six, twelve parts, symmetrically arranged around one axis or point.

We don't need to climb into the clouds to see these snow stars form.

Only needed in hard frost get out of the house and blow out soap bubble. Immediately, ice needles will appear in a thin film of water; they will gather before our eyes into wonderful snow stars and flowers.

"Snowflakes"

The snow itself is very unique! If there is suitable snow on the street, consisting of individual snowflakes, then give the child a magnifying glass so that he can see how different and beautiful they are.

A snowflake can be photographed in macro mode against a dark background and you get a great photo!

If you prefer skates, then it is better to choose an ice rink under open sky where all are created the necessary conditions: pleasant music, smooth ice surface, a medical center is working to provide assistance in case of injury.

You can also invite the child to display winter walks and games in the drawings. The stories of parents about the history of the appearance of skis, skates, sleds will be interesting.

Perhaps there is not a single adult who would not play snow angel as a child. Show the child how to rest against the ground, then to fall back into a snowdrift and clap your hands and feet in the snow, as if you were flying; snow will cling to the baby, and his clothes will be snow-white and angelic, and his hands will become like wings. Then help the baby to stand up carefully without destroying his "angelic" form. Newly fallen snow is a beautiful fluffy bed, and the kids love lying on it, as if soaring in the freshness of a sunny winter day.

If playing angels is no longer a novelty in your family, try creating other snowy images with your child that resemble different animals. Perhaps your son can figure out how to lie down on one side and bend his arm so that the footprint of it looks like an elephant's trunk, or the child can get on all fours in the snow and imagine that it's not his, but the horse's legs in the snow, but himself. he is a horse.

Fun outdoors in winter

Walking in the park or in the forest on snowshoes, which can be bought at a sports or hunting store, is becoming a popular form of winter entertainment. Unlike, such walks put a load on all the muscles of the legs, require less preparation, they can be quickly mastered even by those who have never skied.

Such walking is very beneficial for the legs and joints. Unlike running, there is no jolting, which is bad for the cartilage and spine. Yes, and for the nervous system, tired of the bustle of the city, snowshoeing in the forest or parks is good.

This fun game is similar to hockey, but it doesn't necessarily require an ice rink, any level ground will do. Well, instead of sticks and pucks, brooms and any ball are used.

Great option for fun family vacation with kids.

snow tubing

What-what, and old cameras from car wheels easy to find. And how fun it is to ride them down the hill! Much less traumatic than sledding. They can also be replaced with "cheesecakes", which are sold in shopping malls and sports shops.

You can arrange competitions and build chains, having fun rolling with the whole family.

Snow Snipers

On the same line, containers of approximately the same volume are placed (boxes, old buckets, baskets). Participants stand at a distance from them. The task is to throw snowballs to fill the container with snow as quickly as possible. This exercise develops the hands and the eye well.

Snowdrift walks

Walking in deep snow not only burns more calories than regular walking or even skiing, but it also works your muscles and joints well.

Put on high shoes, for example, winter boots, and even better boots. Go to the place where the snow lies in a thick layer, and start moving forward. You will involuntarily have to raise your legs as high as possible, and use your hands to help maintain balance. Even in severe frost with such a walk you will warm up very quickly. A 15-minute "snowdrift" is adequate in terms of energy costs of a 45-minute walk on a flat road. And try to go back in such a way as to accurately fall into your own tracks - a very good solution for coordination.

Tug of war on a sled

A big circle is drawn opposite sides sleds are put on him, a rope is pulled between them. The winner is the one who stretched to the center of the circle.
