Ecological fairy tales for kids.

"What a day"

It was a clear day. The sun was hot. The grasshopper jumped and rejoiced at the beautiful day. An earthworm burrowed into dry soil. He called the day disgusting. The grasshopper and the earthworm began to argue.

At this time, an ant was dragging a pine needle past them. The grasshopper asked; “What day is it today - a wonderful day or a disgusting day?” The ant promised to answer in the evening. After sunset, the grasshopper and the earthworm came to the ant for an answer. An ant collected a bunch of pine needles in one day. He pointed at her and said: “It was a beautiful day, I worked well and can rest peacefully!”.

"Hedgehog"

There lived a hedgehog in the forest. He was very handsome. The body is covered with spines, the muzzle is elongated like a mouse. Life was hard for the hedgehog this year because the forest was very polluted. There was a lot of paper, plastic bags, and empty cans lying under the trees. And the little hedgehog decided to save the forest.

He picked up paper and cellophane on his spines and took it all to one place. Empty cans he pushed his muzzle towards the landfill. This hard work took a lot of time and energy from the little hedgehog. And mice, squirrels, and hares began to help him. The mice gnawed the paper into small pieces, the squirrels and hares occupied the jars.

When people came, the hedgehog hovered under their feet and made sure they didn’t leave trash. One day a boy ate a candy and threw the candy wrapper on the ground. Then the hedgehog curled up into a spiky ball and began to stab the boy with its thorns, the squirrels threw him pine cones. The boy picked up the candy wrapper and put it in his pocket. This is how the forest animals taught the stupid boy a lesson. And the hedgehog and his friends continue to clear the forest. Soon it will be completely clean.

"Bear"

One day Pipa the frog was walking in the forest and met a hunter.

Let's get acquainted!- Pipa said. - I'm a bear, and who are you?

And I'm a bugbear! - the hunter shouted and how he would shoot Pipa on the spot if she were as big as a bear. But she was small, so he missed. I wanted to shoot again, but Pipa... will scream:

I'm not a bear, not a bear! I'm just a frog!

“Oh, you’re a liar!” the hunter was indignant. “I spent a whole cartridge on you, but it turns out you’re not a bear!”

He swung with all his might to hit Pipa on the head with the butt, but missed again. And then he chased her through the swamp for another three hours until he got stuck.

Pipa never pretended to be a bear again because it was very dangerous.

Ecological games, observations and experiments Observations 1st quarter of inanimate nature in autumn. Behind seasonal changes in nature. For insects. For plants in the children's area.

Organization: MDOU kindergarten "Malysh"

Locality: Republic of Mari El, Solnechny village

In the age of nanotechnology, there is not enough time to stop, look around, and observe the beauty of nature.

The lack of communication between children and nature subsequently turns into callousness, immorality and disrespect for all living things.

In the education of a future highly moral person, we, teachers, occupy the most important place.

After sowing a grain, a weed may grow. After all, behind everyone cultivated plant care and a “nutrient medium” are needed.

And for many years we have been making it clear to our children, “our seedlings,” that everything is for them, that any natural phenomenon is all for the benefit of man, everything is for man and nothing in return.

This has led to the fact that, starting from kindergarten, children know that a forest is wood, and wood is paper, a material for construction.

The forest is a large closet in the form of fur clothes.

The forest is a pantry of products (meat, mushrooms, berries, nuts).

The child thinks that birds are needed only to destroy insects; he does not realize that on a summer evening, sitting under a tree in the forest, he can enjoy the coolness and the beautiful trills of a singing nightingale.

And so it is in everything.

This selfish consumer skill has been learned very well. But a caring attitude towards nature, awareness of the importance of its protection, and the formation of an eco-culture must be cultivated from an early age.

It is in preschool childhood, through a kind, instructive fairy tale, that a positive, caring attitude towards nature is laid.

Relevance

Preschool age is the initial stage at which a positive, caring attitude towards nature, the “man-made world” and everything around us is established. It is the ecological fairy tale that evokes emotional responsiveness, curiosity, unity of knowledge and experiences, and children’s inclination to imagination and fantasy. The knowledge gained should always carry moral potential, touch the child’s soul, evoke a response and understanding from him environmental problems. The result of this will be productive and creative work, which will be expressed in drawing, modeling, appliqué, as well as in composing your own fairy tales.

Ecological fairy tales are very useful for comprehensive development preschool child. For younger preschoolers, the teacher himself comes up with and acts out a fairy tale, giving the kids basic environmental ideas. Children of older preschool age can independently come up with fairy tales on given topics, including those based on diagrams and mnemonic tables. Here, for example, is a fairy tale invented by a child in the preparatory group.

Ecological fairy tale “Dreamy Dandelion”.

There were many flowers growing in the forest clearing. Among them was a yellow dandelion. He dreamed of traveling. And not far from this clearing lived a fairy. One day she learned about the dandelion's dream. The fairy waved her with a magic wand and turned a yellow dandelion into a white fluffy ball. The wind blew and a lot of fluffy grains flew from the ball, which scattered in different directions.

Thus the dandelion's dream came true. Since then yellow dandelions turn into white fluffy balls and scatter with the help of the wind to different places.

She fed me with her milk,

She hid me from prying eyes,

Saved me from sharp teeth.

Deciduous - son

Stop groaning, buddy.

If you want to know a lot,

Must stick his nose everywhere.

Just be very careful

Otherwise you could lose your nose.

Handing out bells to children

GAME: “FUNNY BELL”

(I. Dzerzhinskaya).

Lisa says goodbye and leaves.

Leading: Yes, it really is a disaster!

If you don’t take care of nature, it will die!

There are many rules in nature,

You need to know them by heart.

We will now remember some of them: although they will seem to you the simplest, they are very important.

First. All kinds of animals are important, all kinds of animals are needed. Do not touch, do not offend, do not kill the animals that you meet. Remember: they are the masters here, and you are the guests. Each of them does its own useful work in nature.

Second. Don't try to save the chicks. Sometimes you think: the bird is in trouble. Here she is running away from you. She can't fly, but she can hide so that a predator doesn't find her. And the parents will definitely find their chick.

Third. Don't leave trash on your lawn or by the river. Do not leave fires unextinguished. All this threatens disaster for nature. Well done guys, you not only need to know these rules, but also strictly follow them!

Leading. Nature is like a mother, like a Motherland, alone. So let people keep it everywhere.

The purpose and forms of work on environmental education of preschool children.

Kislova G. V.

Teacher of MBDOU No. 38

The purpose of environmental education:

Teach children to see the relationship between plants and animals, living and inanimate nature, to understand how humans influence their lives, that humans are part of nature, that they must preserve, protect and defend it.

To develop in children the ability to see beauty in all living things, regardless of whether it is a person, a plant, an animal. Comprehension of the truth that in nature there are no useful or harmful animals, that they are all connected with each other, they need each other, and therefore are useful.

To develop feelings in children: caring, the ability to feel in the place of a flower, plant, etc.

Teach to love and protect nature not in words, but by helping flowers, trees, animals, birds, and all living things. Learn to improve your health through communication with nature.

To awaken in children an emotional response to various natural phenomena, to instill in them a desire to admire and enjoy it and to express their feelings through the means of artistic expression and fine art.

Forms of working with children on environmental education:

Synopsis of an ecological holiday for production by children of senior preschool age. Author's ecological musical fairy tale - Synopsis

And when you are drawn into the expanse of this blue,

And when you are with the immortal river, dear,

Just exhale: - Volga!

May you wash yourself with eternally living water!

N. Blagov

We breathe dirty air, walk on gray snow, swim in muddy rivers. And we really want our children to see the clear blue sky and squint their eyes from the sparkling sun white snow, and in the summer we saw the bottom of rivers and lakes through clear water. What needs to be done for this?

One of the most effective ways to develop environmental awareness is children's environmental theater - combining environmental education with creativity and environmental education on both sides of the ramp - both for the young actors themselves and for the respectable audience.

As children, almost every day we imagine ourselves as someone, inventing games and roles in them. But in order to play a role, you need to feel how this or that creature speaks, moves, sees, what it fears, what it rejoices in and by what means it expresses it.

Roles change, developing the ability to be different and understand another. The child is ready and wants to impart life, character and destiny to everything in the world around him. This ability is used, developed and directed by ecological theater.

Theater and ecology are not only completely compatible, but also enrich and help each other.

Information about current environmental problems, presented in a theatrical form, is not only remembered, but also becomes alive and pressing; “animate” figures, facts, processes and terms easily and naturally penetrate the minds and souls of the audience. And, by the way, it is the environmental theater that provides an excellent opportunity to unite all areas of environmental education. Staging environmental information allows preschoolers to better understand and remember its essence, because it evokes simple human feelings: compassion, the desire to help, the need to act.

Goals and objectives

The purpose of preparing and conducting an environmental musical fairy tale is the formation of environmental culture, environmental consciousness, motivation for certain behavior, careful attitude and love for the nature of our native land.

Tasks:

- formation of basic scientific environmental knowledge about the problems of the Volga basin;

Formation of initial skills and habits of environmentally literate behavior that is safe for nature and for the child himself;

Fostering a humane, emotionally positive, careful, caring attitude towards the natural world and the environment in general;

- developing the ability and desire to preserve nature and, if necessary, provide assistance to it;

Formation of basic skills to foresee the consequences of some of their actions in relation to the environment.

Play and communication are the main content components, providing high level motivating children to participate in an ecological musical fairy tale.

It is advisable to use audio recording musical works, corresponding to the topic.

Use room decoration that matches the theme. It is advisable to divide the space into two zones:

view of Volgograd, residents sitting at tables, greeting arriving guests;

view of nature, the Volga River, the sun...

In costumes and decorations, use material that can be easily removed and removed. For example, butterfly wings first have black “drops” and then are clean;

easily movable screens depicting the surroundings of the Spring, etc.

At the conclusion of an environmental musical fairy tale, it is advisable to conduct a music and game program for the audience using games based on the theme of the fairy tale: “Build a dam”, “Free the fish”, “Take up the trash”, etc.

It is advisable to end the event with reflection

THE ROLE OF ECOLOGICAL FAIRY TALES IN THE EDUCATION AND TEACHING OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN

Report of the teacher of MBDOU "Kindergarten No. 20"

Vorotnikova Lyudmila Fedorovna

At the 1st All-Russian Scientific and Practical Conference

"Ecology of Kamchatka and sustainable development of the region"

Environmental education and preschool education are currently becoming one of the priority areas. The earlier the formation of the foundations of ecological culture begins, the higher its level in the future.

The main task of environmental work in preschool educational institutions and parents is to teach them to see and understand the beauty of their native nature, to treat all living things with care, to convey certain knowledge in the field of ecology and to teach them to observe basic rules of behavior when interacting with nature.

The success of any lesson on ecology within a preschool educational institution depends on the extent to which the material used by the teacher is:

Interesting for children;

Understandable to children;

Available for children to memorize and reflect on.

One of the basic principles of environmental education is the principle of science and reliability of facts. But how can we teach young children about how plants reproduce, the benefits and harms of oil, the spawning of fish, the strength of a bear, or the birth of a butterfly? How to tell without disturbing a child’s thirst for knowledge, how to captivate and interest, because the material for discussion for the most part is nothing more than dry, strict scientific facts, which are often simply incomprehensible to children.

It is necessary to choose such forms and methods of ecological development of preschool children that would demonstrate the adaptation of plants and animals to the environment, relationships in natural communities, and the connection between man and nature.

An ecological fairy tale can be such an entertaining learning tool. Of course, in these fairy tales polar bear It is unlikely that he will live on the same land with a penguin, if only because they live on different continents, but they can always write a letter to each other, which will fly across the seas and oceans to talk about their lives, etc.

The form of a fairy tale, like no other, is close and understandable to children. In each fairy tale, we define our goals and objectives, but they are all ultimately similar to each other, because they are designed to teach children to take care of and protect nature and all life on earth. The idea of fairy tales is not new.

It is known that back in the 20s in the USSR, during the mass campaigns “Forest Day”, forestry workers themselves composed and read to children “ forest tales”, trying to convey forest conservation knowledge and environmental culture to children using a simple plot.

According to researcher Galina Nikolaevna Vlasova, “A fairy tale helps a child understand the relationship between man and nature, by drawing certain features of animal characters, a fairy tale gives moral education, as well as real ideas about nature.

What is special about environmental fairy tales?

A characteristic feature is the strong processing of material obtained from the natural environment.

Why are they interesting to children?

The novelty of the plot, the characters, the action itself, the end result. And also the elements from which an ecological fairy tale is built, because these are real objects and relationships in nature.

What is their role?

An ecological fairy tale affects not only the consciousness, but also the feelings of the child. It allows the child to more deeply experience certain phenomena in nature, and teaches children a scientific vision of nature.

So why do we write them?

Based on the knowledge that children receive through an environmental fairy tale, initial forms a conscious attitude towards nature, interest in understanding it, sympathy for living things and a willingness to preserve them, the ability to see the beauty of nature in its various forms, and express one’s emotional attitude towards it.

To attract attention and develop interest, for children to obtain reliable knowledge and memorize it, to put the acquired knowledge into practice, I wrote environmental fairy tales of various contents for children of senior preschool age.

These are tales about indoor plants: How a person tamed plants, How a sprout got a name, Grandma Fedora and Geranium, The bravest flower. About various natural phenomena: Gloomy cloud, Good cloud, All the colors of the rainbow; fairy tales about animals and insects - Just a caterpillar, Don't wake the bear, Why does a hare need a white fur coat?

And others, as well as fairy tales about the interaction between man and nature. Such as, Missing Flowers, How the Birds Didn’t Return, Grandfather’s Garden.

Today I want to introduce you to the fairy tale “Grandfather’s Garden”.

“GRANDFATHER’S VEGETABLE GARDEN” (the fairy tale is accompanied by a presentation)

Grandfather called grandma.

What to do?

Where did you get this water?

What was my name, owners?

Both the Cat and the Mouse came running.

In conclusion, we will say that when creating environmental fairy tales, it is necessary to take into account the specifics childhood. In fairy tales, plants, trees, mountains and animals talk, do bad and good deeds, arousing sympathy, anger, annoyance, tenderness and joy in little listeners.

Fairy tales should be accessible to children, and their presentation should be expressive, in which ordinary fairy tale techniques and famous characters can be used.

However, the theme of nature conservation should run through everything as a red thread, a kind of leitmotif.

And today, specialists (be they scientists, writers, teachers, ecologists or educators) take different positions in relation to the ecological fairy tale.

Some write fairy tales themselves, others look for environmental content in those already written. Still others introduce numerous options for using environmental fairy tales in educational activities. Still others teach both adults and children to write fairy tales.

And some use well-known fairy-tale plots and heroes, introducing into them “signs” of today.

But everyone unconditionally agrees on one thing - an ecological fairy tale is necessary. She happens to be effective means education and training that promote environmental development preschoolers.

TALES ABOUT CHILDREN'S RIGHTS FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR PARENTS

The following children's rights are illustrated: Every child has the right to life (the tale of how Svetik was born); Every child has the right to individuality - a last name, a first name (a fairy tale about how Svetik got her first and last name); Every child has the right to a decent, happy life (a fairy tale about how Svetik grew up); Every child has the right to a home and family (the tale of how Svetik found the kitten Ryzhik)

Methodological development on the surrounding world (senior group) on the topic: Environmental fairy tales and stories for preschool children

Currently, the problem of environmental education of preschool children has become very acute. In the age of speed and technology, there is not enough time to stop, look around, observe native nature. And the lack of communication between children and nature subsequently turns into callousness, immorality and disrespect for all living things.

To educate preschoolers such qualities as attentiveness, thrift, the ability to take care of the weak, protect them, and more communication with nature is needed.

In environmental fairy tales, the knowledge children need is unobtrusively, in the form of a game. Brevity, simplicity of the plot, necessary knowledge and at the end of the tale - a conclusion, and sometimes - a question to maintain a dialogue with little listeners - this is the scheme for constructing environmental fairy tales.

It is not always possible to watch the life of wild animals with preschoolers or go on a trip, see the sunrise or underwater kingdom. And an ecological fairy tale provides such an opportunity thanks to the well-developed imagination of preschool children.

On the topic: methodological developments, presentations and notes

Fairy tales as a means of environmental education for middle preschool children

For environmental education, fairy tales are a relatively new phenomenon. It seems to be the opposite of reality. In a fairy tale, everything is possible; unrealistic events and miraculous transformations take place in it.

In nature, everything is interconnected; it is characterized by flow and change strictly natural phenomena, events.

Ecological tales carry “ecological information”, i.e. give knowledge about nature, about the habits of animals, about the relationship between people and animals and flora. They explain in an accessible form the essence of environmental problems, the reasons for their occurrence, help expand environmental horizons, and comprehend the world and changes in the relationship between people and their environment.

They help to discover the ability of the human soul to subtly sense the world around us. They are aimed at developing a caring attitude towards nature in humans.

Ecological fairy tales teach:

explore the world around you;
foster a sense of participation in the well-being of nature;
think about the consequences of your actions in relation to the world around you, about the responsibility for preserving its wealth and beauty.

An ecological fairy tale teaches scientific vision, helps to reveal complex natural phenomena in an entertaining way, provides an opportunity to become a member of an interesting society of loyal friends (various animals, plants), and learn to understand their needs and relationships with the environment.

A characteristic feature of environmental fairy tales is that the environmental content is always real, and fantastic events and images make this reality exciting, memorable and understandable to children.

Fairy tales contribute to children's more conscious understanding of nature, natural phenomena and the formation in children of conscious environmental activities and skills in rational environmental management.

Thus, on the basis of the knowledge that children receive through an ecological fairy tale, the initial forms of a consciously correct attitude towards nature, interest in its knowledge, sympathy for all living things, the ability to see the beauty of nature in its various forms and manifestations, and express one’s emotional attitude can be laid. To her.

Working with an ecological fairy tale has its own specifics. It contributes to the development of not only personal qualities, but also the development in children of higher feelings (friendship and love for living beings), which are associated with the events and experiences of fairy-tale characters; intellectual feelings (curiosity, surprise, doubt) caused children to act fairy-tale heroes; aesthetic feelings (pleasure, joy, pleasure, admiration, experience) developed in children when perceiving the beauty and diversity of living nature.

Nature and man are inseparable; they form a single whole. And what is inherent in preschool childhood will determine the teenager’s attitude towards the natural environment at school and in adulthood.

A fairy tale, presented by a combination of figurative words with illustrations in a book or theatricalization with toys, has a strong impact on children’s emotions. That is why a fairy tale specially selected for its content will be a good addition to observations of living objects in nature.

Folk tales are of great importance in the environmental education of children aged 4–5 years. They are environmentally friendly in many ways: they reflect man’s understanding of the world around him and changes in the relationship between people and their environment.

In ecology classes, it is necessary to include the fairy tales of V. Bianchi, which are a self-instruction manual for the love of nature. Brought up with an attentive attitude towards nature, from childhood accustomed to observing the life of animals and keeping a diary, Bianchi created wonderful tales about nature. The author, using the form of fairy tales, gives children knowledge about the complex phenomena of adaptation of animals to their environment, and in entertaining stories shows the purposes of this or that organ (“Tails”, “Whose nose is better?”). Some of his tales are written in the best folk traditions, they can be staged and included in classes on the formation of realistic ideas about animals.

For the purposes of environmental education, those fairy tales that are most accurate in defining values should be selected. In fairy tales different nations you can find information about the natural features of the places they inhabit. So, in oriental tales the value of water, its role in human life are often emphasized, and in fairy tales northern peoples- the role of the sun.

1. Reading and discussing fairy tales.

Expressive reading of a fairy tale has a strong emotional impact on a child. Therefore, it is important that children have the opportunity to immediately speak out about what they hear. Fairy tales by B. Zakhoder, V. Bianki, N. Pavlova, V.

Tanasiychuk, L. Tolstoy, G. Prishvin help explain environmental and biological concepts.

Children of middle preschool age can be asked to “transform” into trees, stones, animals, drops of water or specks of dust.

Children 4-5 years old love fairy tales. After expressive reading, you can invite the children to draw.

Using fragments of fairy tales.

When explaining this or that material to children, it is useful to cite fragments of fairy tales as illustrations.

Use of fairy tale characters.

It has been noticed that children of middle preschool age listen with much greater interest and attention not to the teacher, but to the fairy-tale hero who “came to visit.” This technique helps explain and consolidate the material and test children’s knowledge.

The children are happy to answer questions from fairy-tale characters and explain what they themselves have learned. For almost any topic, you can choose suitable fairy-tale characters if you wish.

"Fairytale" questions.

“Fairy-tale” questions may concern the actions of the heroes, their character, and views.

Using fairy tales to organize games.

Many fairy tales or their fragments can become the basis for games with environmental content.

Fairy tales and theater.

Theatrical performances staged with the participation of children based on the plots of fairy tales have a great educational value. When working with children 4–5 years old good result give puppet shows, especially when their characters enter into dialogue with the audience: they ask questions, ask for help.

Fairy tales and fine arts.

Children of middle preschool age illustrate fairy tales with great pleasure. A series of drawings can also be made for fairy tales with environmental content. On environmental studies it is advisable to use famous works artists on fairy tale themes.

Ecological tales

Once upon a time there lived a beautiful Autumn. She loved to dress up trees in red, yellow, and orange outfits. She loved to listen to the fallen leaves rustling under her feet, she loved when people came to visit her in the forest for mushrooms, for vegetables in the garden, for fruit in the garden.

But Autumn became more and more sad. She knew that her sister Winter would soon come, cover everything with snow, bind the rivers with ice, strike with severe frost: So Autumn gathered all the animals - birds, fish, insects - and ordered the bears, hedgehogs, badgers to hide in warm dens and holes; change the fur coats of hares and squirrels to warm, inconspicuous ones; birds - those who are afraid of cold and hunger - fly to warmer climes, and fish, frogs and others water inhabitants bury yourself deeper in the sand, in the silt and sleep there until spring.

Everyone obeyed Autumn. And when the clouds thickened, the snow began to fall, the wind rose and the frost began to get stronger, it was no longer scary, because everyone was ready for winter.

"GRANDFATHER'S VEGETABLE GARDEN"

Grandfather planted turnips, as well as carrots, cabbage and onions. And he began to wait... A lot of time passed, but nothing grew in my grandfather’s garden.

Grandfather called grandma.

Grandma, look, I planted turnips, carrots, cabbage and onions. But for some reason nothing grows for me. What should I do?

What to do?

Like what? - the grandmother answers. - So you need to water your garden!

There is nothing to do, the grandfather went to get water. He brings water, but the water in the bucket is cloudy, dirty, you can’t even see the bottom.

Look, grandma, how dirty the water is. I don’t even know if it’s possible to water a garden with this water?

And I don't know. Let's ask my granddaughter.

Grandfather and grandmother called their granddaughter. My granddaughter came.

Hello my dears! Why did they call me?

Granddaughter! We planted vegetables and wanted to water them, but look how dirty the water is! Is it possible to water a garden with this water?

Where did you get this water?

So this is...I collected water from our river...

What are you saying, grandfather, the local plant dumps waste into our river, so the water in it is dirty and poisoned. You go, grandfather, into the forest, there you will see a spring behind the hill, the water in it is clean - very pure.

Grandfather went into the forest. I found a spring. I collected water from the spring, brought it and watered the garden!

Our heroes began to wait for the harvest to arrive. But no matter how much we waited or guessed, neither turnips, nor carrots, nor cabbage, nor onions grew.

What to do? We decided to call Zhuchka. Bug came running.

What was my name, owners?

Bug! Help us! We planted vegetables, watered them with clean spring water, but there was no harvest. Nothing grows!

So maybe this land needs to be loosened?

Bug took a rake, began to weed the ground, and there, from under the ground... and bags, and cans, and old newspapers and even someone's ancient shoe...

Oh, I can't handle it! I'll call the Cat and the Mouse!

Both the Cat and the Mouse came running.

Friends, look at how much garbage there is here. Please help me cleanse this land!

Bug, Cat and Mouse worked for a long time. Children from the kindergarten also came to their aid. Collected all the trash!

Then the children from the kindergarten drew prohibitory signs “Do not litter” and “Do not litter” and installed them on the ground and near the river.

And after all the work, very little time passed, and vegetables grew in my grandfather’s garden, so beautiful, juicy... for everyone to enjoy!

Grandma and Grandpa gathered the harvest, made a salad and treated it to the children from the kindergarten.

And the children from the kindergarten then told everyone a story about what we need to protect environment so that the harvest is healthy, not contaminated and tasty.

HOW MAN TAMED PLANTS

A long time ago, when people did not yet know what houseplants, there lived a Man. Every spring he enjoyed the awakening of plants near his house, every summer he rejoiced at the green foliage of the trees, and every autumn he sadly watched how the leaves fell from the trees and the grass turned yellow.

One day, when summer was almost over, the Man realized that he did not want to part with the green foliage and decided that he would hide the plants at home, in warmth and comfort.

The Man went to the tree and asked:

Tree, give me one of your branches, I will plant it at home, and it will delight me with its green leaves all winter.

Take it,” replied the Tree. - But remember that Nature takes care of her creations so that they can please you, Man, but can you replace Nature with a twig?

“I am a Man, I can do anything,” the Man answered, took the twig and went home.

A Man came home, chose the most beautiful pot, and poured it into it himself. better land, planted a twig in it and began to wait.

A day passed, then another, but the small branch, instead of growing and blooming, began to droop to the ground, wither and wither.

What's wrong with her? – the Man was perplexed. - What am I doing wrong? I'll go ask Tree.

A Man came to the Tree.

What, Man, how is my branch doing? - asked the Tree.

Badly. The twig withers and withers. Help me, Tree. What am I doing wrong? He poured the best soil, took the most beautiful pot...

Oh, Man... - the Tree sighed. - We, trees, live on earth for a long time and do not wither, because Nature made it so that clouds and clouds, passing over us, rain. Rain moistens the soil, nourishes our roots, and in response we rustle our leaves gratefully.

Thank you, Tree! - said the Man and hurried home.

Arriving home, the Man filled a jug with soft water at room temperature and watered his twig. The twig sighed, straightened up and stretched its small leaves upward. The Man was glad that he did everything right.

A day passed, then another... And again the twig fell ill. The man poured water on it, but in response the branch only moved its leaves very slightly and continued to wither.

What's wrong with her again? “I’ll go ask the Tree,” the Man decided.

And the Man came to the Tree.

Hello, Man, said the Tree. - How is my branch doing?

Badly. Help me, Tree,” the Man begged. “I water it as soon as the soil dries out, but somehow the branch withers again. What am I doing wrong?

“Oh, Man,” sighed the Tree. “Nature designed it in such a way that the roots of trees go deep underground, and air and water cannot reach them, because the earth is too dense. That's why Nature gave us helpers. Live underground earthworms and other creatures that dig tunnels near the roots and thereby loosen the ground, so the tree roots can breathe.

“Thank you, Tree,” the Man exclaimed and hurried home.

The Man came home, took a stick and carefully, so as not to damage the delicate roots of his twig, loosened the ground. The twig took a deep breath, straightened up and rustled its young leaves.

The Man was happy.

So autumn passed and winter came. One day, on a cold winter morning, the Man noticed that the twig was sad again. The man watered the branch and loosened the soil, but nothing helped.

The Man went to the Tree, but could not wake him up, because in winter the trees all sleep and probably see the most beautiful dreams.

The Man got scared. Will his branch really die?

He came home sad and suddenly heard a quiet voice:

Man, listen to me...

Who is speaking? – the Man was surprised.

It's me, your branch. It’s winter outside, Man, and Nature designed it in such a way that in winter, when it’s cold, all the trees, flowers and plants sleep.

But my home is warm and cozy. Doesn't that make you happy? - asked the Man.

It makes us happy, but Nature gives us sunlight so that all flowers and trees can grow.

Oh, that's it! - exclaimed the Man. - Now I understand!

The Man took the pot with a twig and placed it in the brightest place in his house - on the windowsill.

So the twig settled on the windowsill. It’s winter outside, but a twig is growing and blooming at a Man’s house.

So the Man understood what exactly needed to be done so that flowers could grow at home. They need to be looked after, conditions close to natural must be created for them. We need to water them, light them and loosen the soil.

And then, even in the coldest and snowiest winter, Man will have summer at home!

One day there was a wide, beautiful sea in the city. The Little Mermaid lived in it. She was very kind and fair. The little mermaid helped the flowers in dry weather, did not let them dry out, and watered them with water. The Little Mermaid also helped animals and birds that needed clean water. Animals, birds and plants simply cannot survive without water, just like water itself. The little mermaid poured water from a watering can onto her favorite flower, she devoted a little more time to it than to others, she considered it special, although in appearance this flower was ordinary, the sun heated the water, it was so warm, affectionate and sparkled in the sun with small rays.

The sun and water have become friends. When the little mermaid took care of the plants and sang at the same time colorful rainbow enveloped the entire Earth. Many mushrooms appeared in the forests, and in the meadows and fields there were many beautiful flowers and berries. A bird was flying late in the evening; it did not notice a branch that was growing on a tree and injured itself on it. The bird fell to the ground, but the little mermaid noticed it in time and did not let it die. She bandaged her wing, but the bird could not fly further until her wing healed. All the time that the bird was sick, the Little Mermaid looked after her. The bird fell in love with the Little Mermaid, like other plants and animals, for her kindness.
But not all people appreciated the beauty that the Little Mermaid gave. One day a ship sailed across the sea with large barrels of harmful chemical substances for disposal. The crew that was on this ship accidentally threw these barrels from the ship into the sea, but they did not get them out. Over time, these barrels spread throughout the sea and the substances that were in the barrels ended up in the sea.
Soon, after the substances got into the water, they poisoned the entire sea and all the inhabitants of this sea. The Little Mermaid also became seriously ill and could no longer help her friends: people, animals, birds and plants with whom she was friends and loved very much.
In hot, sunny weather, without clean water, the flowers turned yellow and dried out. Animals and birds were suffering from thirst. The Little Mermaid could not recover because the Little Mermaid suffered because of her lack of love for the nature of other people. The bird that the Little Mermaid saved knew about the trouble that people brought to nature. The bird flew from warm countries with medicine for the Little Mermaid so that she can recover. The bird flew long and tiredly landed on a tree in the forest where people were resting. She already wanted to fly further when she fell from the tree, the bird lay on the ground for a long time, but no one helped her, and in the meantime the Little Mermaid turned into sea foam. “Protect what you can before you lose what you have”

Ecological tales

The material was prepared using the book by T.A. Shorygina

Spring

For a long time, a cheerful and generous fontanel lived at the bottom of the ravine. He watered the roots of grasses, bushes and trees with clean, cold water. A large silver willow spread a shady tent over the spring.
In spring, bird cherry trees grew white along the slopes of the ravine. Among her lacy fragrant tassels, nightingales, warblers and finches built their nests.
In summer, forbs covered the ravine with a colorful carpet. Butterflies, bumblebees, and bees circled above the flowers.
On fine days, Artyom and his grandfather went to the spring to get water. The boy helped his grandfather go down the narrow path to the spring and get water. While grandfather was resting under an old willow tree, Artyom was playing near a stream that flowed over the pebbles at the bottom of the ravine.
One day Artyom went to fetch water alone and met at the spring with the guys from the neighboring house - Andrey and Petya. They chased each other and knocked down the flower heads with flexible rods. Artyom also broke the willow twig and joined the boys.

Do you think the guys came up with a good game? Why?

When the boys got tired of the noisy running around, they began throwing branches and stones into the spring. Artyom didn’t like the new fun, he didn’t want to offend the kind, cheerful spring, but Andryusha and Petya were a whole year older than Artyom, and he had long dreamed of making friends with them.

What would you do if you were Artyom?

At first, the spring easily dealt with the stones and fragments of branches that the boys threw at it. But the more garbage there was, the more difficult it was for the poor spring: it either froze completely, covered with large stones, or barely oozed, trying to break through the cracks between them.
When Andrei and Petya went home, Artyom sat down on the grass and suddenly noticed that large dragonflies with transparent shiny wings and bright butterflies were flocking to him from all sides.
- What's wrong with them? – thought the boy. -What do they want?
Butterflies and dragonflies began to dance around Artyom. There were more and more insects, they fluttered faster and faster, almost touching the boy’s face with their wings.
Artyom felt dizzy and he closed his eyes tightly. And when he opened them a few moments later, he realized that he was in an unfamiliar place.
Sands spread all around, there was not a bush or tree anywhere, and sultry air poured onto the ground from the pale blue sky. Artyom felt hot and very thirsty. He wandered along the sand in search of water and found himself near a deep ravine.
The ravine seemed familiar to the boy, but the cheerful spring did not gurgle at its bottom. The bird cherry and willow dried up, the slope of the ravine, like deep wrinkles, was cut by landslides, because the roots of grass and trees no longer held the soil together. No bird voices were heard, no dragonflies, bumblebees, or butterflies were visible.
-Where did the spring go? What happened to the ravine? – thought Artyom.

What do you think happened to the ravine? Why?

Suddenly, through his sleep, the boy heard his grandfather’s alarmed voice:
- Artyomka! Where are you?
- I'm here, grandpa! - the boy responded. - I dreamed about this horrible dream! – And Artyom told his grandfather about everything.
The grandfather listened carefully to his grandson and suggested:
- Well, if you don’t want what you dreamed about to happen, let’s go clean the spring of debris.
Grandfather and Artyom opened the way for the spring, and it began to gurgle cheerfully again, sparkle in the sun with transparent streams and began to generously water everyone: people, animals, birds, trees, and grass.

earthworm

Once upon a time there lived a brother and sister – Volodya and Natasha. Volodya though younger than sister, but be brave. And Natasha is such a coward! She was afraid of everything: mice, frogs, worms and the cross spider, which weaved its web in the attic.
In the summer, children were playing hide and seek near the house, when suddenly the sky darkened, frowned, lightning flashed, large heavy drops first fell to the ground, and then pouring rain poured down.
The children hid from the rain on the veranda and began to watch as foamy streams ran along the paths, large air bubbles jumped through the puddles, and the wet leaves became even brighter and greener.
Soon the rain subsided, the sky brightened, the sun came out, and hundreds of small rainbows began to play in the raindrops.
The children put on their rubber boots and went for a walk. They ran through puddles, and when they touched wet tree branches, they brought down a whole waterfall of sparkling streams on each other.
The garden smelled strongly of dill. They crawled out onto the soft, damp black soil earthworms. After all, the rain flooded their underground houses, and the worms felt damp and uncomfortable in them.
Volodya picked up the worm, put it on his palm and began to examine it, and then wanted to show the worm to his sister. But she recoiled in fear and shouted:
- Volodka! Stop this crap now! How can you pick up worms, they are so disgusting - slippery, cold, wet.
The girl burst into tears and ran home.
Volodya did not want to offend or scare his sister at all; he threw the worm to the ground and ran after Natasha.

Did the children do well?
Are you afraid of earthworms?

The earthworm named Vermi felt hurt and offended.
“What stupid children! – thought Vermi. “They don’t even realize how much benefit we bring to their garden.”

Do you know the benefits of earthworms?

Grumbling dissatisfiedly, Vermi crawled to the zucchini patch, where earthworms from all over the garden were gathering to chat under the large fleecy leaves.
-What are you so excited about, Vermi? – his friends asked him carefully.
- You can’t even imagine how the children offended me! You work, try, loosen the soil - and no gratitude!
Vermi talked about how Natasha called him disgusting and disgusting.
- What ingratitude! – the earthworms were indignant. “After all, we not only loosen and fertilize the soil, but through the underground passages we have dug, water and air flow to the roots of the plants. Without us, plants will grow worse and may even dry out completely.
And do you know what the young and determined worm suggested?
- Let's all crawl into the neighboring garden together. A real gardener lives there, Uncle Pasha, he knows our worth and won’t let us be offended!
The worms dug underground tunnels and through them they entered the neighboring garden.
At first, people did not notice the absence of worms, but the flowers in the flowerbed and the vegetables in the beds immediately sensed trouble. Their roots began to suffocate without air, and their stems began to wither without water.
- I don’t understand what happened to my garden? – Polya’s grandmother sighed. – The ground has become too hard, all the plants are drying up.
At the end of summer, dad began digging up the garden and was surprised to notice that there was not a single earthworm in the clods of black soil.
- Where have our underground assistants gone? - he thought sadly - Maybe the earthworms crawled away to the neighbors?
- Dad, why did you call worms helpers, are they useful? – Natasha was surprised.
- Of course, useful! Through the passages dug by earthworms, air and water get to the roots of flowers and herbs. They make the soil soft and fertile!
Dad went to consult with the gardener Uncle Pasha and brought from him a huge lump of black soil in which earthworms lived. Vermi and his friends returned to Grandma Paulie's garden and began helping her grow plants. Natasha and Volodya began to treat earthworms with care and respect, and Vermi and his comrades forgot past grievances.

Little travelers

A forget-me-not lived on the bank of the river and she had children - small seeds and nuts. When the seeds were ripe, the forget-me-not said to them:
- Dear children! Now you have become adults. It's time for you to get ready for the journey. Go in search of happiness. Be brave and resourceful, look for new places and settle there.
The seed box opened and the seeds spilled out onto the ground. At this time it blew strong wind, he picked up one seed, carried it with him, and then dropped it into river water. The water picked up the forget-me-not seed, and it, like a small light boat, floated down the river. The cheerful streams of the river carried it further and further, and finally the current washed the seed to the shore. A river wave carried the forget-me-not seed onto the damp, soft ground.
“This is the right place!” - thought the seed. “You can safely put down roots here.”
The seed looked around and, to be honest, was a little upset: “The land, of course, is good - wet, black earth. There’s just too much trash around.”
But there is nothing to do! And the seed took root here.
In the spring, in the place where the seed fell, an elegant forget-me-not blossomed. Bumblebees from afar noticed her bright yellow heart, surrounded by blue petals, and flew to her for sweet nectar.
One day, girlfriends Tanya and Vera came to the river bank. They saw a pretty blue flower. Tanya wanted to tear it down, but Vera held her friend back:
- No need, let it grow! Let's better help him, remove the garbage and make a small flower bed around the flower. Let's come here and admire the forget-me-nots! - Let's! – Tanya was delighted.
The girls collected cans, bottles, pieces of cardboard and other garbage, put it in a hole away from the forget-me-not and covered it with grass and leaves. And the flower bed around the flower was decorated with river pebbles.
- How beautiful! – they admired their work.
The girls began to come to the forget-me-not every day. So that no one would break their favorite flower, they made a small fence of dry twigs around the flowerbed.

Did you like what the girls did? Why?

Several years passed, the forget-me-nots grew luxuriantly and, with their tenacious roots, secured the soil on the river bank. The soil stopped crumbling, and even noisy summer showers could no longer erode the steep bank.
Well, what happened to the other forget-me-not seeds?
They lay by the water for a long time and waited in the wings. One day a hunter with a dog appeared by the river. The dog ran, breathing heavily and sticking out its tongue, it was very thirsty! She went down to the river and began noisily lapping up the water. One seed remembered its mother’s words about how important it is to be resourceful, jumped high and grabbed onto the thick reddish hair of the dog.
The dog got drunk and hurried after its owner, and the seed rode on it. The dog ran for a long time through the bushes and swamps, and when he returned home with his owner, before entering the house, he shook himself thoroughly, and the seed fell on the flower bed near the porch. It took root here, and in the spring a forget-me-not blossomed in the garden bed.
- What a miracle! – the hostess was surprised. – I didn’t plant forget-me-nots here! Apparently the wind brought her to us, she thought. - Well, let it grow and decorate my garden bed.
The owner began to take care of the flower - water it and fertilize the ground, and a year later a whole family of tender blue forget-me-nots grew up near the porch. They generously treated bees and bumblebees with sweet juice, and the insects pollinated forget-me-nots and at the same time fruit trees– apple trees, cherries and plums.
- This year we will have a rich harvest! – the hostess was happy. – Bees, butterflies and bumblebees love my garden!
And now it’s time to talk about the third forget-me-not seed.
Uncle Ant noticed him and decided to take him to the forest anthill. Do you think that ants will eat the whole forget-me-not seed? Don't worry! The forget-me-not seed has a treat for the ants - sweet pulp. The ants will taste only it, and the seed will remain untouched.
This is how a forget-me-not seed turned out to be in the forest near an anthill. In the spring it sprouted and soon, next to the ant house, a beautiful blue forget-me-not blossomed.

Rabbit and hare

Do you know, dear guys, that in the garden after harvesting the cabbage, in some places there are juicy crisp stalks and large cabbage leaves left?
The hare Veta knew this well. So she decided to visit the neighboring village in the evening to enjoy delicious cabbage leaves.
Veta ran into the garden and suddenly noticed a small pen with a white fluffy rabbit in it. Veta approached carefully and began to look at the rabbit with curiosity.
- My name is Veta, what’s your name, baby? – she asked finally.
“Ottoman,” the rabbit answered cheerfully.
- Poor thing! – the hare sympathized with the rabbit. - People probably caught you and put you in a cage?
- Not really. Nobody caught me! – Pouf laughed. – I always live with people.
- Always? – Veta was surprised. – Where do you find fresh grass, young shoots and aspen bark?
“My owners feed me,” the rabbit said proudly. _They bring me carrots, cabbage and fresh grass.
- So you never walk freely, don’t run through fields and forests and don’t look for food for yourself?

What do you think the rabbit answered?

Oh, baby, if you only knew how wonderful it is in the forest in the spring, when the flowers bloom and the birds chirp! There are so many lawns and clearings with juicy and tasty grass! - said the hare.
- But I heard from the owners that wolves and foxes live in the forest, and they really like to snack on hare! – Poufik remarked judiciously.
- Yes it is. But we, hares, can run fast, jump high and confuse our tracks, so it’s not easy for wolves and foxes to catch us,” Veta answered.
- I don’t know how to run fast and confuse my tracks, and from sly fox“I probably won’t be able to save myself,” Poufik sighed.

Why can't rabbits confuse their tracks?

But what do you eat in winter, when there are no herbs, no flowers, no green branches in the forest in winter? – asked the rabbit?
- Yes, winter is a difficult time for forest dwellers. Of course, some of the animals store up food and go to bed for the whole winter, but hares do not stock up. The bark and branches of aspen trees save us from hunger. And from enemies - fast legs and white fur that is not visible in the snow. After all, in the fall we change our fur coat. Our fur becomes thicker, more fluffy, and turns from silver-gray to completely white.
“My fur coat also sheds in spring and autumn, but it doesn’t change color,” said Puffy.

Why don't the colors of rabbits change?

Your fur coat is so fluffy and snow-white! – Veta praised the rabbit fur.
- Thank you! - Puffy thanked the hare, - my mistress likes her too. She knits warm sweatshirts, scarves and hats from fluff.
“And yet, tell me, Pouf,” Veta asked, “aren’t you bored sitting alone in a cage?”
“No, perhaps it’s not boring,” answered the rabbit. – Children and Dina’s dog come to play with me.
- Are you friends with the dog? – the bunny was incredibly surprised. “My advice to you is to stay away from her.” We always run away from dogs. Whenever I hear a dog barking in the forest, a chill creeps down my spine!
- Dina is affectionate and kind dog. She comes along with the master’s children and never harms me, she just sniffs me - that’s all! But maybe, Veta, you're hungry? – the rabbit caught himself. – I can treat you with carrots and cabbage leaves.
“Well, I guess I won’t refuse the treat,” the hare agreed.
The rabbit ran to the feeder and brought back a large leaf of cabbage and several carrots. He pushed the treat through the cracks in the mesh of the pen, and Veta crunched the vegetables with pleasure.
“Thank you, Pouf,” she thanked the rabbit, “we had a great time, but it’s time for me to go home.”
- Come visit me! - Poufik asked.
- See you soon, Pouf! – Veta shouted and galloped off into the forest.

How a starling chose his home

The children made birdhouses and hung them in the old park. In the spring, the starlings arrived and were delighted - people had given them excellent apartments. Soon, in one of the birdhouses lived a large and Friendly family starlings. Dad, mom and four kids. Caring parents flew around the park all day long, catching caterpillars and midges and bringing them to their voracious children. And the curious starlings took turns peeking out of the round window and looking around in surprise. An extraordinary, alluring world opened up to them. The spring breeze rustled the green leaves of birch and maple trees and swayed the white caps of lush inflorescences of viburnum and rowan.
When the chicks grew up and fledged, their parents began to teach them to fly. The three little birdlings turned out to be brave and capable. They quickly mastered the science of aeronautics. The fourth did not dare to get out of the house.
The starling mother decided to lure the baby out with cunning. She brought a large, delicious caterpillar and showed the delicacy to the little bird. The chick reached for a treat, and the mother moved away from him. Then the hungry son, clinging to the window with his paws, leaned out, could not resist and began to fall. He squeaked in fear, but suddenly his wings opened, and the baby, making a circle, landed on his paws. Mom immediately flew up to her son and rewarded him for his courage with a tasty caterpillar.
And everything would be fine, but just at that time the boy Ilyusha appeared on the path with his four-legged pet - the spaniel Garik.
The dog noticed a chick on the ground, barked, ran up to the birdling and touched it with his paw. Ilyusha screamed loudly, rushed to Garik and took him by the collar. The chick froze and closed his eyes in fear.
- What to do? - thought the boy. - We need to help the chick somehow!
Ilyusha took the little bird in his arms and carried it home. At home, dad carefully examined the chick and said:
- The baby's wing is damaged. Now we need to treat the squirrel. I warned you, son, not to take Garik with you to the park in the spring.

Why shouldn’t you take your dogs for a walk in the forest or park in spring?

Several weeks passed and the little bird, who was named Gosha, recovered and got used to people.
He lived in the house all year, and the following spring people released Gosha into the wild. The starling sat on a branch and looked around.
- Where will I live now? - he thought. “I’ll fly into the forest and find a suitable house for myself.”
In the forest, the starling noticed two cheerful finches who were carrying twigs and dry blades of grass in their beaks and were making a nest for themselves.
- Dear finches! - he turned to the birds. – Can you tell me how I can find a place to live?
“If you want, live in our house, and we’ll build ourselves a new one,” the birds kindly answered.
Gosha thanked the finches and took their nest. But it turned out to be too cramped and uncomfortable for such large bird like a starling.
- No! Your house, unfortunately, does not suit me! - said Gosha, said goodbye to the finches and flew on.
In a pine forest, he saw a smart woodpecker in a colorful vest and a red cap, which was hollowing out a hollow with its strong beak.
- Good afternoon, uncle woodpecker! - Gosha turned to him. – Tell me, is there a free house nearby?
- How not to be! Eat! - answered the woodpecker. “On that pine tree over there is my old hollow.” If you like it, you can live in it.
The starling said: “Thank you!” and flew to the pine tree that the woodpecker pointed at. Gosha looked into the hollow and saw that it was already occupied by a friendly pair of tits.
Nothing to do! And the squirrel flew on.
In a swamp near the river, a gray duck offered Gosha her nest, but it did not suit the starling either - after all, starlings do not build nests on the ground.
The day was already approaching evening when Gosha returned to the house where Ilyusha lived and sat down on a branch under the window. The boy noticed the starling, opened the window, and Gosha flew into the room.
“Dad,” Ilyusha called his father. – Our Gosha is back!
- If the starling returned, it means he did not find a suitable house in the forest. We'll have to make a birdhouse for Gosha! - said dad.
The next day, Ilyusha and his dad made a beautiful little house with a round window for the starling and tied it to an old tall birch tree.
Gaucher liked the house, he began to live in it and sing loud, cheerful songs in the morning.

Where did the starling family live?
Who taught starlings to fly?

Katya and the ladybug

This story happened to a girl Katya.
On a summer afternoon, Katya took off her shoes and ran through a flowering meadow.
The grass in the meadow was tall, fresh and pleasantly tickled the girl’s bare feet. And the meadow flowers smelled of mint and honey. Katya wanted to lie on the soft grass and admire the clouds floating in the sky. Having crushed the stems, she lay down on the grass and immediately felt that someone was crawling along her palm. It was a small ladybug with a red, lacquered back, decorated with five black dots.
Katya began to examine the red bug and suddenly heard a quiet, pleasant voice that said:
- Girl, please don’t crush the grass! If you want to run and frolic, then it’s better to run along the paths.
- oh, who is this? – Katya asked in surprise. -Who is talking to me?
- It's me, ladybug! – the same voice answered her.
_ do ladybugs talk? – the girl was even more surprised.
- Yes, I can speak. But I only talk to children, and adults don’t hear me! – answered the ladybug.
- It's clear! – Katya drawled. - But tell me why you can’t run on the grass, because there’s so much of it! – the girl asked, looking around the wide meadow.

What do you think the ladybug answered?

When you run on grass, its stems break, the ground becomes too hard, it does not allow air and water to reach the roots, and the plants die. In addition, the meadow is the home of many insects. You are so big, and we are small. When you ran through the meadow, the insects were very worried, an alarm sounded everywhere: “Attention, danger! Save yourself, whoever can!” - explained the ladybug.
“Sorry, please,” said the girl, “I understand everything, and I will only run along the paths.”
And then Katya noticed beautiful butterfly. She fluttered merrily over the flowers, and then sat down on a blade of grass, folded her wings and... disappeared.
-Where did the butterfly go? – the girl was surprised.
- She is here, but she has become invisible to you. This is how butterflies escape from enemies. I hope, Katyusha, that you are not going to catch butterflies and become an enemy?
- No! No! – Katya screamed and added: “I want to be a friend.”
“Well, that’s right,” the ladybug noted, “butterflies have a transparent proboscis, and through it, as if through a straw, they drink flower nectar.” And, flying from flower to flower, butterflies carry pollen and pollinate plants. Believe me, Katya, flowers really need butterflies, bees and bumblebees - after all, these are pollinating insects.
- Here comes the bumblebee! - said the girl, noticing a large striped bumblebee on the pink head of the clover. You can't touch him! He might bite!
- Certainly! – Ladybug agreed. – Bumblebees and bees have a sharp poisonous sting.
“And here’s another bumblebee, only smaller,” the girl exclaimed.
- No, Katyusha. This is not a bumblebee, but a wasp fly. It is colored in the same way as wasps and bumblebees, but it does not bite at all, and it does not have a sting. But the birds take her for an evil wasp and fly past.
- Wow! What a cunning fly! – Katya was surprised.
“Yes, all insects are very cunning,” the ladybug said proudly.
At this time, grasshoppers chirped cheerfully and loudly in the tall grass.
- Who is that chirping? – Katya asked.
“These are grasshoppers,” explained the ladybug.
- I would like to see a grasshopper!
As if hearing the girl’s words, the grasshopper jumped high in the air, and its emerald back sparkled brightly. Katya extended her hand, and the grasshopper immediately fell into the thick grass. It was impossible to see him in the green thickets.
- And the grasshopper is also a cunning one! You won't find it in green grass, like black cat in a dark room,” the girl laughed.
- Do you see the dragonfly? – the ladybug asked Katya. – What can you say about her?
- Very beautiful dragonfly! – the girl responded.
- Not only beautiful, but also useful! After all, dragonflies catch mosquitoes and flies right in the air.
Katya talked for a long time with the ladybug. She was carried away by the conversation and did not notice how evening had come.
- Katya, where are you? – the girl heard her mother’s voice.
She carefully placed the ladybug on the daisy and politely said goodbye to her:
- Thank you, dear ladybug! I learned a lot of new and interesting things.
“Come to the meadow more often, and I’ll tell you something more about its inhabitants,” the ladybug promised her.

Who did Katya meet in the meadow?
What did the ladybug ask Katya?
How do butterflies and bumblebees benefit plants?
How are dragonflies useful?
Why couldn't Katya see the grasshopper in the grass?
