Kinesiological games of kindergarten children

Cilj ovog završnog rada je osvijestiti činjenicu da su kineziološke igre za djecu od iznimne važnosti jer utječu na djetetov rast i razvoj. Igra je najvažniji dio djetetova odrastanja te osnovni oblik djetetova učenja. Ona potiče razvoj djetetovih intelektualnih, socijalnih, fizičkih i emocionalnih vještina. Razvijanjem navedenih vještina dijete se potiče na razmišljanje, pamćenje, maštu. Kroz igru djeca stječu nova iskustva i znanja. Stoga je bitno djecu poticati na igru jer na taj način unaprjeđujemo njihov razvoj. Postoje mnoge motoričke igre za djecu predškolske dobi koje potiču razvoj osnovnih motoričkih sposobnosti poput agilnosti, brzine, eksplozivne snage ili brzine, koordinacije i spretnosti. Takve igre mogu sadržavati elemente nogometa ili rukometa i one su iznimno poticajne i korisne za djecu jer razvijaju motoriku ruku i nogu te koordinaciju pokreta s različitim pomagalima. Veoma je bitno da sadržaji motoričkih igara budu djeci zanimljivi, te različiti kako bi kod djeteta potaknuli različita iskustva. Također je bitna i okolina u kojoj djeca provode motoričke igre jer ona uvelike utječe na motivaciju i sudjelovanje djeteta u igri. Ako je atmosfera u kojoj djeca provode aktivnosti ugodna i poticajna djeca će moći nesmetano istraživati, uživati u igri što će rezultirati zadovoljstvom djece. Djetetu je potrebno u igri pružiti slobodu kako bi mogli nesmetano uživati i stjecati različita iskustva u interakciji s drugom djecom i razvijati samopouzdanje pri čemu bitnu ulogu ima odgajatelj.The aim of this final work is to raise awareness of the fact that kinesiological games for children are extremely important because they affect the child's growth and development. Play is the most important part of a child's growing up and the basic form of a child's learning. It encourages the development of a child’s intellectual, social, physical and emotional skills. By developing these skills, the child is encouraged to think, remember, imagine. Through play, children gain new experiences, knowledge. Therefore, it is very important that we encourage children to play as much as possible, because in this way we improve their development. There are many motor games for preschool children that encourage the development of basic motor skills and these are agility, speed, explosive power. The goal of these games is to encourage speed, coordination and dexterity in children. Such games can be football, handball, which are extremely stimulating and useful for children because they develop hand and foot motor skills and coordination of movements with various aids. It is very important that the contents of motor games are interesting to children, and different in order to encourage different experiences in the child. The environment in which children play motor games is also important because it greatly affects the child's motivation and participation in play. If the atmosphere in which the children carry out the activities is pleasant and stimulating, the children will be able to explore freely, enjoy the game and this will result in pleasure. There are a lot of motor games for preschool children that they really like and they should be as represented as possible in the child's life because they increase the work of all organs and organic functions. The child also needs to be given freedom in the game so that they can enjoy and gain different experiences in interacting with other children. Different kinesiological games allow children to develop self-confidence, joy, fitness. The role of educators in conducting kinesiological games for preschool children is to encourage children to develop motor skills through various kinesiological games and to create physical exercise habits in children. Within this final paper, examples and divisions of kinesiological games for preschool children are given
