Puzzling: Vanya and Friends Learn to Work Together
Vanya and his friends assemble a large puzzle in the group, learning to work as a team, support each other, and find joy in collaborative work.
One morning, Anna Petrovna decided to prepare a special activity for the children — assembling a large puzzle that consisted of many small pieces. Vanya, Lisa, Pasha, and the other kids approached the table where the puzzle was spread out with interest. Anna Petrovna explained that today they would try to complete the picture together, and each child could contribute to the work.
The children sat around the table, and each took a few puzzle pieces. Vanya suggested starting with the corner pieces to make it easier to assemble the frame. Lisa supported his idea, and together they began searching for the corners and edges. Pasha was very attentive and proposed sorting all the pieces by color to find the necessary elements faster. It was a good plan, and the children happily supported him.
At first, it was a bit challenging: some pieces didn't fit together at all, and the children sometimes lost patience. But Anna Petrovna encouraged them, reminding them that the most important thing is to work together and not give up. Vanya smiled at his friends and said that they would definitely succeed if they helped each other. This support gave the children strength, and they resumed their work with enthusiasm.
Gradually, the frame was completed, and now the children needed to assemble the middle. They began selecting pieces depicting the sky, trees, and animals. Lisa found pieces with parts of the sun and suggested starting the assembly with the upper part of the picture. Pasha helped her, and soon they had assembled a large portion of the sky, while Vanya focused on finding pieces for the forest. He found pieces depicting trees and bushes and proudly showed them to his friends.
The work progressed faster as the children had already gotten used to working together and understood how to help each other. Lisa discovered pieces that fit the sunny side, and Pasha added some pieces depicting animals. Everyone felt their importance and rejoiced when finding a matching piece. Working on the puzzle became a real adventure.
When only a few pieces were left, Vanya suggested that each child place their last piece so that everyone felt part of the team. Lisa, Pasha, and Vanya took the final puzzle pieces and carefully placed them in their spots. As soon as the last piece fit, the children excitedly shouted, "Hooray, we did it!"
The picture was complete: before them unfolded a bright landscape with green trees, blue skies, and sunbeams. The children looked at their creation for a long time, rejoicing that they had managed to create such beauty together. Anna Petrovna praised them for their patience, diligence, and ability to work as a team. She explained that sometimes achieving a goal requires effort and supporting each other to make everything work out.
After completing the puzzle, Anna Petrovna suggested that the children share how they felt. Lisa said she enjoyed working together and that she wouldn't have been able to handle such a task alone. Pasha shared that he understood how important it is to help friends and find common ground. And Vanya said that this was one of the most exciting activities in kindergarten and that he hoped they would assemble puzzles together again.
Finally, Anna Petrovna suggested taking a photo with the puzzle to remember the day. The children gladly agreed and hugged each other, smiling. They realized that teamwork makes them friendlier and stronger, and that together they can tackle even the most challenging tasks.
Moral: Teamwork helps us achieve great goals. By supporting each other, we can tackle any task and create something beautiful and meaningful. Friendship and collaboration make us stronger and teach us to appreciate collective efforts.
