The health of the baby - both physical and mental - is a matter of paramount importance for parents, so many mothers and fathers use various games to develop the baby’s abilities, helping to unlock children’s potential. Today we will introduce you to exercises that stimulate the development of fine motor skills of the hands and speech.
Finger gymnastics on the theme “Wild Animals” is a set of exercises aimed at training the motor functions of the fingers. By influencing certain points located on children's fingers, they activate the speech centers of the brain and help the development of the baby's speech, as well as the development of his mental abilities. Finger games are short poems accompanied by movements of the fingers and hands, showing what the poems and nursery rhymes are about. Children really like the rhythm of speech and the corresponding movements, so they are happy to repeat the movements and words of the adult presenter. If the child is delighted with such gymnastics, you can perform it several times a day, but the duration of the game should not exceed five minutes - this time is enough to entertain the child and warm up his fingers.
The finger game “Wild Animals” will introduce the baby to the names and habits of animals, tell about where they live and what they eat.
Squirrel, Hungry Mouse, Dinosaurs, Hedgehog
Squirrel A playful squirrel is jumping, (“running” with its fingers on the table) tearing pine cones from the pine branches. (they clench their fists on their right and left hands alternately) He deftly squeezes it with his paws (they clench their fists on their right and left hands at the same time) and carries it to his closet. (“run” their fingers across the table)
Squirrel A squirrel sits on a cart, (they clap their palms and hit each other with their fists alternately) She sells nuts: To the little fox-sister, to the sparrow, to the titmouse, to the thick-fifted bear, to the mustachioed bunny - (bend one finger at a time, starting with the thumb) To whom in a scarf, To whom in the goiter, in the sweetheart. (clap palms rhythmically and strike with fists)
Squirrels One, two, three, four, five, (put out five fingers) The squirrels came to play. (hide your hand behind your back) One has disappeared somewhere, (put out four fingers) There are four squirrels left. (hide your hand behind your back) Now quickly look - there are already three of them left. (put out three fingers) Well, well, what a pity, (hide your hand behind your back) We only have two left. (put out two fingers) This news is so sad - (hide hand behind back) There is only one squirrel left. (put out one finger) While you and I were counting, the Squirrels ran away from us.

Dinosaurs Dinosaurs at dawn (hands clenched into a “lock”) Children saw in the park, They got scared, trembled, (we pretend to tremble, fright) They quickly ran to the house, (“running” with their fingers on the table) The dinosaur, believe it or not, Just tra- voracious beast. (hands clenched into a “lock”)
Hedgehog We found a prickly ball, We can’t hold it. The ball is spinning in his palms, the ball wants to run away. (children roll massage balls between their palms) Our ball is alive and warm, Who does it look like? (they look at the ball, holding it in their palms) The ball jumped onto the path - It turned out... it's a hedgehog! (children lower their hands, the balls fall and roll on the floor)
The hedgehog was stomping along the path The hedgehog was stomping along the path And he was carrying mushrooms in a basket. (we make walking movements with our fingers spread out) To count the mushrooms, you need to bend your fingers. (children bend their fingers in turn, first on their left hand, then on their right hand; at the end of the exercise, their hands should be clenched into fists)
