Short-term project “Wintering Birds” in the second junior group (3–4 years)
Relevance
The interaction of man with nature is an extremely pressing problem of our time. For centuries, man has been a consumer in relation to nature: he lived and used its gifts without thinking about the consequences.
The task of adults is to cultivate children’s interest in our neighbors on the planet, the birds , the desire to learn new facts about their lives, take care of them, and rejoice in the knowledge that by sharing crumbs, you can save birds from death in winter . Give children basic knowledge of what to feed birds in winter .
Working together with parents, we must create conditions for the child to communicate with the natural world and to help our feathered friends as much as possible.
