There is a need to improve the level of preschool and school education. The main goal is to identify and develop creative abilities in schoolchildren. The introduction of innovation helps to reveal the inner potential and identify the abilities of children.
Important. Innovations for children will help in preschool education, and in the future they will help to identify abilities in the exact sciences or humanities.

INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO DIDACTIC GAME
What is a game for each of us? Each person will answer differently. Someone will say that this is a movement, that is, a sport! And someone will present a dollhouse with a family of wonderful mice! And there are also people who keep that same bear from childhood throughout their entire lives.
The game in human life appeared a very long time ago, and has not yet been fully solved. One thing is clear: life begins with her. A.S. Makarenko believed that “the education of a future leader occurs, first of all, in play.” Therefore, in preschool institutions, the leading activity of children is primarily play. Let's consider the main types of games in a preschool institution:
— creative (role-playing, musical, theatrical, etc.)
- with rules (didactic, active, intellectual, folk, fun games).
Particular attention should be paid to didactic games. They contribute to the development of cognitive and mental abilities, the development of children’s speech, and the social and moral development of a preschool child.
Nowadays, there are a huge number of didactic games, I want to focus on board and printed games, with the help of which you can successfully develop speech skills, mathematical abilities, logic, attention, learn to model life patterns and make decisions, develop self-control skills; This is an interesting activity for children and adults.
Board games - various lotto, domino constructors, folding pictures, mosaics. These games may have an element of competition. For example, who can assemble a figure from construction set parts faster and more correctly; will assemble puzzles and arrange geometric shapes in the correct order. Some types of board games contribute to children’s ability to play in a group, learn to take turns, help a playmate in certain tasks, perform actions correctly, and respect the actions of a friend, thereby earning the approval of an adult and the respect of peers.
In their teaching activities, educators are faced with the fact that preschool children are distracted from their usual games and easily switch to others. What harm does this do? The child quits the game without finishing it, does not finish the job he started. Mental processes such as attention, memory, thinking suffer from this, and there is no contact with his peers.
The teacher is the organizer of any game! He explains the rules, brings to the children's consciousness the idea, game actions and the learning task. Introduces something new into games if the previous version is outdated and ceases to captivate children.
Therefore, it is very important to use innovative technologies in your work. Innovation is a new or improved product or technology used in practical activities. In the educational process of preschoolers, you always have to come up with something new or improve the old! For example, a board - printed game - walker. The rules are simple: roll the dice, count the moves, and the first one to reach the finish line wins. It is not difficult to find it on store shelves; on the contrary, there is a large selection of it. But! There is not a large selection of game themes, mostly fairy tales and cartoons with simple, even in the eyes of a preschooler, minimum rules.
In preschool educational institutions, such games are quickly removed to distant shelves, because Children get bored of them quickly. For such a game to be rich and fully didactic, it is necessary not only to improve the theme of the game, but also to make it modern! Children of the 21st century are interested in construction. Why not use the constructor in educational games? Namely, in the printed board game - walker.
The playing field, track, and game design consists of a construction set. It turns out the game is a 3D walker. Only this phrase can initially interest a preschooler in modern society. This game is easy to assemble and put away, children are interested in thinking through the options for the tracks themselves, and they choose their own character to play. It is easy for the teacher to change the theme of the game: pets, autumn, transport, traffic rules, valeology, etc. The rules of the game are complicated by the fact that cards with tasks appear, which change depending on the age of the children and the lexical topic of the game. Children receive a task on every turn, regardless of the number of steps rolled on the dice.
The purpose of this game is to create conditions for the positive socialization of children. If a preschooler knows how to communicate positively, this will allow him to live comfortably in the company of people in the future, to be successful, thanks to communication, he will not only get to know another person, be it an adult or his peer, but also himself. A positive attitude towards oneself is formed, independence, purposefulness and self-regulation of one’s own actions develop.
Coming to the conclusion that the socialization of a preschooler is carried out through play, we can say that innovations in didactic games are of great importance for both teachers and children of preschool institutions.

Innovative experience: "Development of children's speech through didactic play"
Every day, as part of individual work with children, we learn nursery rhymes, recite tongue twisters, repeating pure jokes, then the children begin to compose them themselves, looking for words ending with a certain syllable, rhyming with their names, etc. We reinforce these skills in games and conversations, we conduct speech gymnastics, learn rhymes for various games, on the street, in a group, in special moments, learn poetry, tell fairy tales together (“Puss in Boots”, “Ryaba Hen”, “Fox with a Rock” and etc.).
In the middle group, work begins on teaching children monologue speech. After 4 years 6 months, children begin to rapidly “grow up.” Teaching them to tell stories becomes more successful.
I suggest starting learning storytelling by describing toys. The success of a lesson sometimes depends on the choice of toy. It should attract children with its unusualness and imagery (tumbler; duckling in a funny outfit; sad bunny, etc.). I compose a story-description of the toy in advance, highlighting the main sentences (usually three of them) that will help children describe the toy, talk about something specific, for example, first about how beautiful the doll is. (Our doll is very beautiful. She has... (big blue eyes, rosy cheeks)) Then - how elegant she is, and later about the fact that the doll is a musical toy. In the first lessons of teaching storytelling, I offer short (3-4 minutes lasting) dramatization games.
For example, a duckling is hiding, and the children call him: “Yellow fluffy Quack, come out!”, or tell the hare: “We see, we see your long white ears.”
They guess what color the character's eyes are, agree or refute his opinion about his own appearance, think about why the hare is sad and what should be done to help him.
The knowledge gained in classes, walks, and during various activities of children is clarified, specified, and then consolidated in didactic games.
Thus, in 2016, I developed and introduced into the educational process a project on cognitive and speech development for children of primary and secondary preschool age, “The Good World of K. Chukovsky’s Fairy Tales.” The goal of the project: to instill in children a love for fiction in the process of getting to know each other with the life and work of K. Chukovsky through didactic games.” By duration: long-term (2 years)
.
Parents provided great assistance in the implementation of this project. They prepared material for didactic games. Conducted individual work with parents based on their requests. I developed consultations, memos for parents, and held thematic parent meetings: “Games and exercises for the development of speech of children 3-4 years of age”, “Development of speech of younger preschoolers”, “Didactic game and development of children’s speech”, “Recommendations for parents on speech development”, etc. (Appendix No. 2).
