Breathing exercises
occupies an important part physical culture, its benefits were discovered at different times by various peoples through the accumulation of simple historical experience, and later its benefits were scientifically confirmed. Breathing exercises provide excellent drainage of the bronchi, help strengthen the respiratory muscles, cleanse the mucous membrane of the human respiratory tract, and saturate the entire body with fresh oxygen necessary for its normal functioning.
Therefore, it is very important to ensure correct daily exercises for little children junior group kindergarten Breathing exercises should become an integral part of their daily schedule.
With an abundance of different breathing exercise technician based on yoga and others health exercises and philosophical systems of health, one should not mindlessly follow any of these techniques. Young children require a more careful and serious approach, including:
1. Taking into account the effectiveness of each exercise, choosing only the most necessary ones, because in conditions kindergarten there is no opportunity to engage in unhelpful ritual exercises for a long time.
2. Level of difficulty of the exercise available to a small child. Adaptation of naming and explanations of exercises for the perception of children of younger groups.
3. Inclusion in the system of exercises for different types of breathing:
- abdominal;
- costal;
- clavicular;
- full;
4. Systematic approach. Exercises should be combined in such a way that in one session, ventilation of all parts of the lungs is simultaneously ensured, and strengthening of the respiratory muscles, etc.
Approximate plan of a set of exercises can be composed of already known exercises by combining them while observing the principles described above.
Exercise No. 1. "Listening to the breath." It is very important to explain to children in accessible language the benefits of exercise and what types of breathing there are. Therefore, it is useful to start the complex with an offer to listen to your own breathing, listen to the process, track how the air enters the nose, then fills the lungs through the respiratory tract: upper parts, middle parts, lower parts. How the chest and stomach rise during a deep breath and how the air then calmly leaves us.
Ask the children to first try to breathe lightly, at an accelerated pace, then deeply and slowly, let them try abdominal breathing, chest breathing, and so on. You demonstrate each exercise on yourself by placing your hand on your chest or stomach, using gestures to show the path taken by the air in our body. This exercise perfectly restores breathing after physical exercise. loads Repeat each type of breathing 5-6 times.
Exercise No. 2. "We breathe through one nostril." The essence of the exercise is simple and clear; its goal is to train the upper respiratory tract. Close one nostril with your index finger and breathe 5-7 times. It is important to raise the diaphragm as high as possible. This should be explained to children as “breathe until a pit appears on your tummy” or something like that.
Exercise #3. "Let's blow up the balloon." Aimed at abdominal breathing. It's simple - children, together with their teacher, inflate a balloon from their tummy, inhaling air. But the inhalation should not be sharp, but calm, measured, slow. Then a short pause - and a calm, measured exhalation. Repeat 6-7 times.
Exercise #4. "Ball in the chest." After the previous exercise, it is usually easier to explain to children how to breathe with upper breath. We just need to explain to them that it’s exactly the same as we just cheated balloon in the tummy, it must be done in the chest. Make sure all children understand and master this exercise; some may have difficulty with it. Reps: 6-7.

Exercise #5. "Breathing with ascent." Provides good ventilation of the lower parts of the lung, while well stimulating the upper part. We place our hands, bent at the elbows, on the collarbones. Inhaling, we stretch our shoulders and arms up; you can also rise on your tiptoes, but this is not necessary. Then we lower ourselves smoothly. Repeat 5-7 times.
Exercise #6. "The hedgehog is sniffing." The hedgehog came out of its burrow in the spring and sniffs at nature: turns its head to the right and left and strongly noisy (within reasonable limits) inhaling air through its nose. Then we calmly release the air from the lungs through the mouth. Repeat 5-7 times.
Exercise No. 7. "Lips with a tube." Hands on the waist, exhale all the air from the lungs through our noses, then hold for a couple of seconds and inhale air through curled lips. We draw in lungs full of air, hold our breath again for a couple of seconds - and calmly exhale through the nose. Repeat 7-9 times.
Exercise #8. "Pumps". Clenching your hands into fists, place them in front of your chest. Now we begin to bend forward, deep, all the way to the floor, with jerky inhalations and exhalations. Tilt - exhale, exit starting position- inhale. Ask children to breathe loudly, in through their nose and out through their mouth. 8-10 reps.
Completion complex, as a rule, is done using cleansing deep breathing. Take a deep breath through the nose, accompanied by protrusion of the abdomen and chest, and a calm, equally deep and complete exhalation. Repeat 5-7 times.
Carrying out a complex of such exercises daily, you can confidently expect good results in terms of development respiratory system child, strengthening immunity and overall health.
Usually there is no problem getting a child to do exercises does not arise - the children are happy to repeat all the movements and exercises after the teacher. It is much more important to make sure that they understand your explanations correctly, and actually breathe as expected of them, and not just imitate correct breathing, imitating a neighbor. This is a characteristic of young children in the younger group of kindergarten; they do not always manage to understand from the first time what their teacher wants from them.

Breathing exercises will strengthen your baby’s immunity
In order not to get sick, you need to learn to breathe correctly. There are many types of breathing exercises, including exercises adapted for children. The fun tips below will teach you and your baby respiratory self-defense.
1. Big and small. Standing straight, while inhaling, the child stands on tiptoes, stretches his arms up, showing how big he is. Hold this position for a few seconds. As you exhale, the child should lower his arms down, then squat down, clasping his knees with his hands and at the same time saying “uh”, hiding his head behind his knees - showing how small he is.
2. Steam locomotive. Walk around the room, imitating the movements of the wheels of a steam locomotive with bent arms, while pronouncing “choo-choo” and changing the speed of movement, volume and frequency of pronunciation. Repeat with your child five to six times.
3. Geese are flying. Walk slowly and smoothly around the room, flapping your arms like wings. Raise your arms as you inhale, lower them as you exhale, saying “g-u-u.” Repeat with your child eight to ten times.
4. Stork. Standing straight, spread your arms to the sides, and bend one leg forward. Hold the position for a few seconds. Keep your balance. As you exhale, lower your leg and arms, quietly saying “sh-sh-sh-sh.” Repeat with your child six to seven times.
5. Woodcutter. Stand straight with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. As you inhale, fold your hands like a hatchet and lift them up. Sharply, as if under the weight of an ax, lower your outstretched arms down as you exhale, tilt your body, allowing your hands to “cut through” the space between your legs. Say "bang." Repeat with your child six to eight times.
6. Mill. Stand with your feet together, arms up. Slowly rotate with straight arms, saying “zh-r-r” as you exhale. As the movements speed up, the sounds become louder. Repeat with your child seven to eight times.
7. Skater. Place your feet shoulder-width apart, hands clasped behind your back, and body tilted forward. Imitating the movements of a speed skater, bend first your left, then right leg, saying "k-r-r". Repeat with your child five to six times.
8. Angry hedgehog. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Imagine how a hedgehog curls up into a ball when in danger. Bend down as low as possible without lifting your heels from the floor, clasp your chest with your hands, lower your head, exhaling “p-f-f” - the sound made by an angry hedgehog, then “f-r-r” - and this is a satisfied hedgehog. Repeat with your child three to five times.
9. Little Frog. Place your feet together. Imagine how the little frog jumps quickly and sharply, and repeat his jumps: squatting slightly, inhaling, jump forward. When you land, “croak.” Repeat three to four times.
10. In the forest. Imagine that you are lost in a dense forest. After inhaling, say “ay” as you exhale. Change your intonation and volume and turn left and right. Repeat with your child five to six times.
11. Cheerful bee. As you exhale, say “z-z-z.” Imagine a bee sitting on your nose (direct sound and gaze to the nose), on the arm, on the leg. Thus, the child learns to direct attention to a specific area of the body.
12. Giant and dwarf. Sit on the floor with your legs crossed in front of you, foot to foot. Place your hands on internal sides knees that are pressed to the floor. Take a full breath of air, straighten your shoulders, raise your head proudly, as you exhale, lower yourself down, press your head to your feet.
With the help of these exercises, not only will your child become healthier, he will stay in good mood and breathe deeply, but you and he will breathe a sigh of relief. If you regularly perform such gymnastics, colds will bypass your child!
Appendix 2.
Card file of breathing exercises for middle group.
Complex No. 1
1. “Let’s listen to our breathing”
Target: teach children to listen to their breathing, determine the type of breathing, its depth, frequency and, based on these signs, the state of the body.
I. p.: standing, sitting, lying down (how convenient in at the moment) . The muscles of the torso are relaxed.
In complete silence, children listen to their own breathing and determine:
where the air stream enters and where it comes out;
what part of the body moves when you inhale and exhale (stomach, chest, shoulders or all parts - wavy);
what kind of breathing: shallow (lung) or deep;
what is the breathing frequency: inhalation and exhalation occur frequently or calmly at a certain interval (automatic pause); quiet, inaudible breathing or noisy breathing.
2. “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly”
Target: teach children to relax and restore the body after physical activity and emotional arousal; regulate the breathing process, concentrate attention on it in order to control the relaxation of your body and psyche.
I. p.: standing, sitting, lying down (this depends on previous physical activity). If you are sitting with your back straight, it is better to close your eyes.
Inhale slowly through your nose. When the chest begins to expand, stop inhaling and pause as long as you can. Then exhale smoothly through the nose. Repeat 5-10 times. The exercise is performed silently, smoothly, so that even a palm placed to the nose does not feel the stream of air when exhaling.
3. “Breathe through one nostril.”
Target: teach children to strengthen the muscles of the respiratory system, nasopharynx and upper respiratory tract.
I. p.: sitting, standing, the torso is straightened, but not tense.
Close the right nostril with the index finger of the right hand. Take a quiet, long breath through your left nostril (sequentially lower, middle, upper breathing).
As soon as the inhalation is completed, open the right nostril and close the left one with the index finger of the left hand - through the right nostril, exhale quietly for a long time, emptying the lungs as much as possible and pulling the diaphragm as high as possible so that a “pit” is formed in the stomach.
3-4. Same with the other nostrils.
Repeat 3-6 times.
Note. After this exercise, inhale and exhale through one nostril several times in a row. (first with the nostril that is easier to breathe, then with the other). Repeat 6-10 breathing movements each nostril separately. Start with calm breathing and move on to deep breathing.
4. "Balloon" (Breathe with your stomach, lower breathing).
Target: teach children to strengthen the muscles of the abdominal organs, ventilate the lower part of the lungs, and concentrate on lower breathing.
I. and. : lying on your back, legs freely extended, torso relaxed, eyes closed. Attention is concentrated on the movement of the navel: both palms rest on it.
Exhale calmly, drawing the stomach towards the spinal column, the navel seems to lower.
Slow, smooth inhalation, without any effort - the stomach slowly rises up and swells like a round ball.
Slow, smooth exhalation - the stomach slowly retracts towards the back.
Repeat 4-10 times.
5. “Balloon in the chest” (medium, costal breathing)
Target: teach children to strengthen intercostal muscles, concentrate your attention on their movement, ventilating the middle sections of the lungs.
I. p.: lying, sitting, standing. Place your hands on the lower part of the ribs and concentrate on them.
Exhale slowly, evenly, squeezing the ribs of the chest with your hands.
Inhale slowly through your nose, your hands feel the expansion of your chest and slowly release the clamp.
As you exhale, the chest is again slowly pressed with both hands at the bottom of the ribs.
Repeat 6-10 times.
Note. Abdominal muscles and shoulder girdle remain motionless. In the initial phase of training, it is necessary to help children slightly compress and unclench the lower part of the ribs of the chest as they exhale and inhale.
6. "The balloon rises up" (upper breathing)
Target: teach children to strengthen and stimulate the upper respiratory tract, providing ventilation to the upper parts of the lungs.
I. p.: lying, sitting, standing. Place one hand between your collarbones and concentrate on them and your shoulders.
Inhale and exhale with a calm and smooth rise and fall of the collarbones and shoulders.
Repeat 4-8 times.
7. "Wind" (cleansing full breath).
Target: teach children to strengthen the respiratory muscles of the entire respiratory system, to ventilate the lungs in all parts.
I. p.: sitting, standing, lying down. The torso is relaxed, exhale completely through the nose, drawing in the stomach and chest.
Take a full breath, protruding your stomach and chest ribs.
Hold your breath for 3-4 seconds.
Forcefully release the air through pursed lips with several abrupt exhalations.
Repeat 3-4 times.
Note. Exercise not only perfectly cleanses (ventilates) light, but also helps to warm up during hypothermia and relieves fatigue. Therefore, it is recommended to carry it out after physical activity as often as possible.
8. "Rainbow Hug Me"
Target: the same.
I. p.: standing or in motion.
Take a full breath through your nose while spreading your arms to the sides.
Hold your breath for 3-4 seconds.
Stretching your lips in a smile, pronounce the sound “s”, exhaling air and drawing in your stomach and chest. Direct your arms forward again, then cross them in front of your chest, as if hugging your shoulders: one hand goes under the armpit, the other on the shoulder.
Repeat 3-4 times.
9. Repeat the exercise 3-5 times “We breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly.”
Complex No. 2
The purpose of this complex: strengthen the nasopharynx, upper respiratory tract and lungs by tightening the tone of certain muscle groups.
All exercises of the complex are performed standing or in motion.
1. “Breathe through one nostril.”
Repeat the exercise “Breathe through one nostril” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage.
2. "Hedgehog".
Turn your head right - left at the pace of movement. Simultaneously with each turn, inhale through the nose: short, noisy (like a hedgehog), with muscle tension throughout the nasopharynx (the nostrils move and seem to connect, the neck tenses). Exhale softly, voluntarily, through half-open lips.
Repeat 4-8 times.
3. “Lips like a tube.”
- Exhale completely through the nose, drawing in the stomach and intercostal muscles.
- Purse your lips into a “tube” and sharply draw in air, filling all your lungs to capacity.
- Make a swallowing movement (as if you were swallowing air).
- Pause for 2-3 seconds, then raise your head up and exhale air through your nose smoothly and slowly.
Repeat 4-6 times.
4. “Ears.”
Shaking your head left and right, take deep breaths. The shoulders remain motionless, but when tilting the head to the right - to the left, the ears are as close to the shoulders as possible. Make sure that your torso does not turn when you tilt your head. Inhalations are performed with tension in the muscles of the entire nasopharynx. Exhalation is voluntary.
Repeat 4-5 times.
5. “Blowing soap bubbles.”
- When tilting your head to your chest, inhale through your nose, tensing the muscles of the nasopharynx.
- Raise your head up and calmly exhale air through your nose, as if blowing soap bubbles.
- Without lowering your head, inhale through your nose, straining the muscles of your nasopharynx.
- Exhale calmly through the nose with your head bowed.
Repeat 3-5 times.
6. “Tongue with a tube.”
- The lips are folded into a “tube”, as when pronouncing the sound “o”. Stick out your tongue and also fold it into a “tube”.
- Slowly drawing in air through the “tube” of the tongue, fill all the lungs with it, inflating the stomach and ribs of the chest.
- When you finish inhaling, close your mouth. Slowly lower your head until your chin touches your chest. Pause – 3-5 seconds. 4. Raise your head and calmly exhale air through your nose.
Repeat 4-8 times.
7. "Pump".
- Bring your hands together in front of your chest, clenching your fists.
- Bend forward and down and with each springy tilt take gusty breaths, as sharp and noisy as when inflating tires with a pump. (5-7 springy bends and breaths).
- Exhalation is voluntary.
Repeat 3-6 times.
Note. When inhaling, strain all the muscles of the nasopharynx.
Complication. Repeat the exercise 3 times, then bend forward and backward (large pendulum) while inhaling and exhaling. When bending forward, pull your arms freely towards the floor, and when bending back, raise them to your shoulders.
With each breath, the muscles of the nasopharynx tense.
Repeat 3-5 times.
8. “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly.”
Repeat the exercise “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage.
Complex No. 3
The purpose of this complex: strengthen muscle tone the entire respiratory system.
It is carried out in a playful way.
1. “Wind on the Planet.” Repeat the “Pump” exercise from complex No. 2.
2. “Planet “Sat – Nam” - respond!” (yogic breathing).
Target: teach children to strengthen muscle tone of the entire torso and all respiratory muscles.
I. p.: sitting with buttocks on heels, toes extended, feet together, back straight, arms raised above head, fingers, except index fingers, intertwined, and index fingers connected and straightened upward like an arrow.
After the words “Planet, respond!” the children begin to sing “Sat – Nam”.
Repeat 3-5 times.
Note. Pronounce “Sat” sharply, like a whistle, pressing your stomach towards the spinal column - this is a sharp exhalation. “Nam” is pronounced softly, relaxing the abdominal muscles - this is a small breath.
Breathing cycle: exhale “Sat” - pause – inhale “Nam”. When pronouncing “sat”, the muscles of the body tense: legs, buttocks, stomach, chest, shoulders, arms, fingers and toes, muscles of the face and neck; “to us” - everything relaxes.
The exercise is performed at a slow pace. After the children say “Sat – Nam” 8-10 times, the adult says: “I accepted the call signs!”
3. “The planet breathes quietly, calmly and smoothly.” Repeat the exercise “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage in order to relax muscle tone.
4. "Aliens."
Target: the same as in the exercises “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly”, “Planet “Sat - Nam” - respond!”
The difference in execution: muscle tension while inhaling, and relaxation while exhaling.
I. p.: 3-4 times from a supine position, 3-4 times standing.
The exercise is performed with verbal accompaniment, for example: “The aliens are waking up, tense up.”
- Calmly exhale air through your nose, drawing in your stomach and chest.
- Inhale slowly and smoothly, filling your lungs completely.
- Hold your breath, tensing all your muscles and mentally saying “I am strong.” (th)».
- Calmly exhale air through your nose while relaxing your muscles.

BREATHING ACCORDING TO A. N. STRELNIKOVA’S METHOD
COMPLEXES OF EXERCISES
"Warm-up." I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight hands half bent in. elbows, fingers slightly clenched into fists, turned towards each other. Sit down with your arms crossed towards each other, inhale through your nose - active, fast, clearly audible. Return to i. n. Relax. Do not think about exhalation, do not control it with your consciousness. Repeat the exercise 8 times in a row without pauses. The pace is 1-2 breaths per second, move strictly rhythmically. Repeat 10-20 times.
“Tilts” Part one. I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, arms down (“at the seams”). Lean forward, lower your arms at will, slightly crossing them, inhale through your nose - quickly, clearly audible. Return to the starting position not completely - and inhale again while bending forward. Don’t think about exhalation, don’t interfere, but don’t help it either. Repeat 8 times, tempo – 1 – 2 breaths per second, bend strictly rhythmically. Repeat 10-20 times.
Part two. I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, arms at shoulder level, elbows bent, fingers slightly clenched into fists, turned towards each other. Lean back, sharply cross your arms in front of your chest; inhalation through the nose - fast, active, clearly audible (but not noisy). Return to i. n. not completely - and inhale again while bending back. Repeat 8 times, tempo – 1 – 2 breaths per second, rhythmic movements, don’t think about exhaling (do not interfere with or assist exhalation). Repeat 10-20 times.
"Pendulum". I. p. - standing, leaning forward, arms down, sway back and forth. When you lean forward and inhale, your arms are crossed. Inhale through the nose, fast, active, clearly audible (but it should not be deliberately noisy). Rate 1-2 breaths per second. Repeat 10-20 times.
When performing these exercises, you should not try to inhale as much air as possible - on the contrary, the inhalation volume should be less than possible. During movements, you should try to free yourself from tension and establish an individual, natural, but energetic pace. Don't move your hands far from your body! Do not help exhale! We must try to make it invisible and silent. It should be remembered that the goal is to organize breathing, and movement is only a means for this. Repeat each exercise with pauses of 1, 2, 3 seconds - so that you get at least 128-160 breaths, and a total of 600-640 breathing movements for four exercises. It is recommended to combine the mastered movements with sound exercises in the future.
In senior preschool age The load on the musculoskeletal system and other body systems gradually increases due to greater intensity and increased dosage of exercises. Circular movements of the hands are introduced (back and forth), jerking movements of straight and bent arms. In exercises for the torso, turns and bends to the sides, turns around oneself while standing and lying down are done. More attention is paid to special breathing exercises. Various individual manuals are widely used, in addition, simulation exercises are given. Breathing exercises are performed at an average pace. The number of repetitions increases to 6-8 times.
Exercises to lengthen exhalation
"Forward bends." I. p. - feet shoulder-width apart, arms along the body.
Calm breath in. p. 1-2-3 - springy forward bends with triple exhalation. Hands behind your back, look forward. 4 - return to i. p.
"Tilts to the side"(“Tilts with an umbrella”). I. p. - feet shoulder-width apart, hands on the belt. Calm breath in. p. 1-2-3 - triple bend to the side, raise the opposite hand above your head - “cover yourself with an umbrella” - exhale. 4 - return to i. p.
“Whose ribbon sways longer?” Each child takes in his hand a narrow ribbon made of thin colored paper. Feet shoulder-width apart, arms below, slightly laid back. Calm breath. As you exhale, bring the ribbon to your mouth and make a slight tilt.
Special breathing exercises
“Blow out the candle.” Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Take a free breath and hold your breath slightly. Curl your lips. Take three short, rare exhalations, as if blowing out a burning candle: “Ugh!” Ugh! Ugh!". Keep your torso straight during the exercise.
"Full breath." Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Take a free deep breath while raising your arms up in front of you. Hold your breath (so far nice). Exhale forcefully through your mouth while lowering your arms and leaning forward. ("Ha!"). Breathe out with relief, as if freeing yourself from worries. Slowly straighten up.
Exercises to strengthen the muscles of the nasopharynx and upper respiratory tract.
The exercises can be performed standing or while moving.
"Hedgehog". Turn your head left and right at the pace of movement. Simultaneously with each nasopharynx (the nostrils move and seem to connect, the neck is tense); exhale softly, voluntarily, through half-open lips.
"Ears". Shaking your head left and right, take deep breaths. The shoulders remain motionless, and the ears stretch towards the shoulders. Make sure that your body does not turn when you tilt your head.
Inhalations are performed with tension in the muscles of the nasopharynx. Exhalation is voluntary.

Invite your child to imitate the Indians' war cry: shout quietly, quickly covering and opening your mouth with your palm. This is a fun element for children that is easy to repeat. An adult can “manage the volume” by alternately indicating “quieter and louder” with his hand.
Breathing exercises “Pearl divers”
Target: strengthen physiological breathing in children.
It is announced that a beautiful pearl lies on the seabed. Anyone who can hold their breath can get it. The child, in a standing position, takes two calm breaths and two calm exhalations through the nose, and with the third deep breath closes his mouth, pinches his nose with his fingers and squats until he wants to exhale.

Respiratory The child’s system is designed by nature in an extremely complex and wise way. The main task of adults is to keep it healthy.
Respiratory exercise helps saturate every cell of the body with oxygen. Ability to manage breathing promotes the ability to manage oneself. .In addition, the correct breath stimulates the functioning of the heart, brain and nervous system, relieves a person from many diseases, improves digestion (before food is digested and absorbed, it must absorb oxygen from the blood and oxidize).
Exhaling slowly helps you relax, calm down, and cope with anxiety and irritability.
Besides, respiratory exercise is simply necessary for children who often suffer from colds, bronchitis, as well as those recovering from pneumonia or suffering from bronchial asthma.
Breathing exercises perfectly complements any treatment (drug, homeopathic, physiotherapeutic, develops still imperfect respiratory system of the child and strengthens the body's defenses.
While studying breathing exercises, it is important to ensure that the child does not have symptoms of hyperventilation (rapid breath, a sharp change in complexion, trembling of the hands, a feeling of tingling and numbness in the arms and legs).
If your head starts to spin, fold it palms together("bucket", bring them close to your face and breathe deeply into them several times (2-3 times). After that breathing exercises can be continued.

Breathing exercises will strengthen your baby’s immunity
In order not to get sick, you need to learn to breathe correctly. There are many types of breathing exercises, including exercises adapted for children. The fun tips below will teach you and your baby respiratory self-defense.
1. Big and small. Standing straight, while inhaling, the child stands on tiptoes, stretches his arms up, showing how big he is. Hold this position for a few seconds. As you exhale, the child should lower his arms down, then squat down, clasping his knees with his hands and at the same time saying “uh”, hiding his head behind his knees - showing how small he is.
2. Steam locomotive. Walk around the room, imitating the movements of the wheels of a steam locomotive with bent arms, while pronouncing “choo-choo” and changing the speed of movement, volume and frequency of pronunciation. Repeat with your child five to six times.
3. Geese are flying. Walk slowly and smoothly around the room, flapping your arms like wings. Raise your arms as you inhale, lower them as you exhale, saying “g-u-u.” Repeat with your child eight to ten times.
4. Stork. Standing straight, spread your arms to the sides, and bend one leg forward. Hold the position for a few seconds. Keep your balance. As you exhale, lower your leg and arms, quietly saying “sh-sh-sh-sh.” Repeat with your child six to seven times.
5. Woodcutter. Stand straight with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. As you inhale, fold your hands like a hatchet and lift them up. Sharply, as if under the weight of an ax, lower your outstretched arms down as you exhale, tilt your body, allowing your hands to “cut through” the space between your legs. Say "bang." Repeat with your child six to eight times.
6. Mill. Stand with your feet together, arms up. Slowly rotate with straight arms, saying “zh-r-r” as you exhale. As the movements speed up, the sounds become louder. Repeat with your child seven to eight times.
7. Skater. Place your feet shoulder-width apart, hands clasped behind your back, and body tilted forward. Imitating the movements of a speed skater, bend first your left and then your right leg, saying “k-r-r.” Repeat with your child five to six times.
8. Angry hedgehog. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Imagine how a hedgehog curls up into a ball when in danger. Bend down as low as possible without lifting your heels from the floor, clasp your chest with your hands, lower your head, exhaling “p-f-f” - the sound made by an angry hedgehog, then “f-r-r” - and this is a satisfied hedgehog. Repeat with your child three to five times.
9. Little Frog. Place your feet together. Imagine how the little frog jumps quickly and sharply, and repeat his jumps: squatting slightly, inhaling, jump forward. When you land, “croak.” Repeat three to four times.
10. In the forest. Imagine that you are lost in a dense forest. After inhaling, say “ay” as you exhale. Change your intonation and volume and turn left and right. Repeat with your child five to six times.
11. Cheerful bee. As you exhale, say “z-z-z.” Imagine a bee sitting on your nose(direct sound and gaze to the nose) , on the arm, on the leg. Thus, the child learns to direct attention to a specific area of the body.
12. Giant and dwarf. Sit on the floor with your legs crossed in front of you, foot to foot. Place your hands on the inner sides of your knees, which are pressed to the floor. Take a full breath of air, straighten your shoulders, raise your head proudly, as you exhale, lower yourself down, press your head to your feet.
With the help of these exercises, not only will your child become healthier, be in a good mood and breathe deeply, but you and him will also breathe a sigh of relief. If you regularly perform such gymnastics, colds will bypass your child!
Appendix 2.
Card file of breathing exercises for the middle group.
Complex No. 1
1. “Let’s listen to our breathing”
Target: teach children to listen to their breathing, determine the type of breathing, its depth, frequency and, based on these signs, the state of the body.
I. p.: standing, sitting, lying down(whatever is convenient at the moment) . The muscles of the torso are relaxed.
In complete silence, children listen to their own breathing and determine:
where the air stream enters and where it comes out;
what part of the body moves when you inhale and exhale(stomach, chest, shoulders or all parts - wavy) ;
what kind of breathing: shallow(lung) or deep;
what is the breathing frequency: inhalation and exhalation occur frequently or calmly at a certain interval(automatic pause) ; quiet, inaudible breathing or noisy breathing.
2. “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly”
Target: teach children to relax and restore the body after physical activity and emotional excitement; regulate the breathing process, concentrate attention on it in order to control the relaxation of your body and psyche.
I. p.: standing, sitting, lying down(this depends on previous physical activity) . If you are sitting with your back straight, it is better to close your eyes.
Inhale slowly through your nose. When the chest begins to expand, stop inhaling and pause as long as you can. Then exhale smoothly through the nose. Repeat 5-10 times. The exercise is performed silently, smoothly, so that even a palm placed to the nose does not feel the stream of air when exhaling.
3. “Breathe through one nostril.”
Target: teach children to strengthen the muscles of the respiratory system, nasopharynx and upper respiratory tract.
I. p.: sitting, standing, the torso is straightened, but not tense.
Close the right nostril with the index finger of the right hand. Take a quiet, long breath through your left nostril(sequentially lower, middle, upper breathing) .
As soon as the inhalation is completed, open the right nostril and close the left one with the index finger of the left hand - through the right nostril, exhale quietly for a long time, emptying the lungs as much as possible and pulling the diaphragm as high as possible so that a “pit” is formed in the stomach.
3-4. Same with the other nostrils.
Repeat 3-6 times.
Note. After this exercise, inhale and exhale through one nostril several times in a row.(first with the nostril that is easier to breathe, then with the other) . Repeat 6-10 breathing movements with each nostril separately. Start with calm breathing and move on to deep breathing.
4. "Balloon" (Breathe with your stomach, lower breathing) .
Target: teach children to strengthen the muscles of the abdominal organs, ventilate the lower part of the lungs, and concentrate on lower breathing.
I. and. : lying on your back, legs freely extended, torso relaxed, eyes closed. Attention is concentrated on the movement of the navel: both palms rest on it.
Exhale calmly, drawing the stomach towards the spinal column, the navel seems to lower.
Slow, smooth inhalation, without any effort - the stomach slowly rises up and swells like a round ball.
Slow, smooth exhalation - the stomach slowly retracts towards the back.
Repeat 4-10 times.
5. “Balloon in the chest” (medium, costal breathing)
Target: teach children to strengthen the intercostal muscles, concentrate their attention on their movement, ventilating the middle sections of the lungs.
I. p.: lying, sitting, standing. Place your hands on the lower part of the ribs and concentrate on them.
Exhale slowly, evenly, squeezing the ribs of the chest with your hands.
Inhale slowly through your nose, your hands feel the expansion of your chest and slowly release the clamp.
As you exhale, the chest is again slowly pressed with both hands at the bottom of the ribs.
Repeat 6-10 times.
Note. The abdominal and shoulder muscles remain motionless. In the initial phase of training, it is necessary to help children slightly compress and unclench the lower part of the ribs of the chest as they exhale and inhale.
6. "The balloon rises up" (upper breathing)
Target: teach children to strengthen and stimulate the upper respiratory tract, providing ventilation to the upper parts of the lungs.
I. p.: lying, sitting, standing. Place one hand between your collarbones and concentrate on them and your shoulders.
Inhale and exhale with a calm and smooth rise and fall of the collarbones and shoulders.
Repeat 4-8 times.
7. "Wind" (cleansing full breath) .
Target: teach children to strengthen the respiratory muscles of the entire respiratory system, to ventilate the lungs in all parts.
I. p.: sitting, standing, lying down. The torso is relaxed, exhale completely through the nose, drawing in the stomach and chest.
Take a full breath, protruding your stomach and chest ribs.
Hold your breath for 3-4 seconds.
Forcefully release the air through pursed lips with several abrupt exhalations.
Repeat 3-4 times.
Note. Exercise not only perfectly cleanses(ventilates) light, but also helps to warm up during hypothermia and relieves fatigue. Therefore, it is recommended to carry it out after physical activity as often as possible.
8. "Rainbow Hug Me"
Target: the same.
I. p.: standing or in motion.
Take a full breath through your nose while spreading your arms to the sides.
Hold your breath for 3-4 seconds.
Stretching your lips in a smile, pronounce the sound “s”, exhaling air and drawing in your stomach and chest. Direct your arms forward again, then cross them in front of your chest, as if hugging your shoulders: one hand goes under the armpit, the other on the shoulder.
Repeat 3-4 times.
9. Repeat the exercise 3-5 times“We breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly.”
Complex No. 2
The purpose of this complex: strengthen the nasopharynx, upper respiratory tract and lungs by tightening the tone of certain muscle groups.
All exercises of the complex are performed standing or in motion.
1. “Breathe through one nostril.”
Repeat the exercise “Breathe through one nostril” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage.
2. "Hedgehog".
Turn your head right - left at the pace of movement. Simultaneously with each turn, inhale through the nose: short, noisy(like a hedgehog) , with muscle tension throughout the nasopharynx(the nostrils move and seem to connect, the neck tenses) . Exhale softly, voluntarily, through half-open lips.
Repeat 4-8 times.
3. “Lips like a tube.”
Exhale completely through the nose, drawing in the stomach and intercostal muscles.
Purse your lips into a “tube” and sharply draw in air, filling all your lungs to capacity.
Make a swallowing movement(as if you were swallowing air) .
Pause for 2-3 seconds, then raise your head up and exhale air through your nose smoothly and slowly.
Repeat 4-6 times.
4. “Ears.”
Shaking your head left and right, take deep breaths. The shoulders remain motionless, but when tilting the head to the right - to the left, the ears are as close to the shoulders as possible. Make sure that your torso does not turn when you tilt your head. Inhalations are performed with tension in the muscles of the entire nasopharynx. Exhalation is voluntary.
Repeat 4-5 times.
5. “Blowing soap bubbles.”
When tilting your head to your chest, inhale through your nose, tensing the muscles of the nasopharynx.
Raise your head up and calmly exhale air through your nose, as if blowing soap bubbles.
Without lowering your head, inhale through your nose, straining the muscles of your nasopharynx.
Exhale calmly through the nose with your head bowed.
Repeat 3-5 times.
6. “Tongue with a tube.”
The lips are folded into a “tube”, as when pronouncing the sound “o”. Stick out your tongue and also fold it into a “tube”.
Slowly drawing in air through the “tube” of the tongue, fill all the lungs with it, inflating the stomach and ribs of the chest.
When you finish inhaling, close your mouth. Slowly lower your head until your chin touches your chest. Pause – 3-5 seconds. 4. Raise your head and calmly exhale air through your nose.
Repeat 4-8 times.
7. "Pump".
Bring your hands together in front of your chest, clenching your fists.
Bend forward and down and with each springy tilt take gusty breaths, as sharp and noisy as when inflating tires with a pump.(5-7 springy bends and breaths) .
Exhalation is voluntary.
Repeat 3-6 times.
Note. When inhaling, strain all the muscles of the nasopharynx.
Complication. Repeat the exercise 3 times, then bend forward and backward(large pendulum) while inhaling and exhaling. When bending forward, pull your arms freely towards the floor, and when bending back, raise them to your shoulders.
With each breath, the muscles of the nasopharynx tense.
Repeat 3-5 times.
8. “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly.”
Repeat the exercise “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage.
Complex No. 3
The purpose of this complex: strengthen muscle tone of the entire respiratory system.
It is carried out in a playful way.
1. “Wind on the Planet.” Repeat the “Pump” exercise from complex No. 2.
2. “Planet “Sat – Nam” - respond!” (yogic breathing) .
Target: teach children to strengthen muscle tone of the entire torso and all respiratory muscles.
I. p.: sitting with the buttocks on the heels, toes extended, feet together, back straight, arms raised above the head, fingers, except the index fingers, intertwined, and the index fingers connected and straightened upward, like an arrow.
After the words “Planet, respond!” the children begin to sing “Sat – Nam”.
Repeat 3-5 times.
Note. Pronounce “Sat” sharply, like a whistle, pressing your stomach towards the spinal column - this is a sharp exhalation. “Nam” is pronounced softly, relaxing the abdominal muscles - this is a small breath.
Breathing cycle: exhale “Sat” - pause – inhale “Nam”. When pronouncing “sat”, the muscles of the body tense: legs, buttocks, stomach, chest, shoulders, arms, fingers and toes, muscles of the face and neck; “to us” - everything relaxes.
The exercise is performed at a slow pace. After the children say “Sat – Nam” 8-10 times, the adult says: “I accepted the call signs!”
3. “The planet breathes quietly, calmly and smoothly.” Repeat the exercise “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly” from complex No. 1, but with a lower dosage in order to relax muscle tone.
4. "Aliens."
Target: the same as in the exercises “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly”, “Planet “Sat - Nam” - respond!”
The difference in execution: muscle tension while inhaling, and relaxation while exhaling.
I. p.: 3-4 times from a supine position, 3-4 times standing.
The exercise is performed with verbal accompaniment, for example: “The aliens are waking up, tense up.”
Calmly exhale air through your nose, drawing in your stomach and chest.
Inhale slowly and smoothly, filling your lungs completely.
Hold your breath, tensing all your muscles and mentally saying “I am strong.”(th) ».
Calmly exhale air through your nose while relaxing your muscles.

BREATHING ACCORDING TO A. N. STRELNIKOVA’S METHOD
COMPLEXES OF EXERCISES
"Warm-up." I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, arms half-bent. elbows, fingers slightly clenched into fists, turned towards each other. Sit down with your arms crossed towards each other, inhale through your nose - active, fast, clearly audible. Return to i. n. Relax. Do not think about exhalation, do not control it with your consciousness. Repeat the exercise 8 times in a row without pauses. The pace is 1-2 breaths per second, move strictly rhythmically. Repeat 10-20 times.
"Tilts" Part one. I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, arms down(“at the seams”) . Lean forward, lower your arms at will, slightly crossing them, inhale through your nose - quickly, clearly audible. Return to the starting position not completely - and inhale again while bending forward. Don’t think about exhalation, don’t interfere, but don’t help it either. Repeat 8 times, tempo – 1 – 2 breaths per second, bend strictly rhythmically. Repeat 10-20 times.
Part two. I. p. - standing, feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, arms at shoulder level, elbows bent, fingers slightly clenched into fists, turned towards each other. Lean back, sharply cross your arms in front of your chest; inhalation through the nose - fast, active, clearly audible(but not noisy) . Return to i. n. not completely - and inhale again while bending back. Repeat 8 times, tempo – 1 – 2 breaths per second, rhythmic movements, don’t think about exhaling(do not interfere with or assist exhalation) . Repeat 10-20 times.
"Pendulum". I. p. - standing, leaning forward, arms down, sway back and forth. When you lean forward and inhale, your arms are crossed. Inhale through the nose, fast, active, clearly audible(but it should not be deliberately noisy) . Rate 1-2 breaths per second. Repeat 10-20 times.
When performing these exercises, you should not try to inhale as much air as possible - on the contrary, the inhalation volume should be less than possible. During movements, you should try to free yourself from tension and establish an individual, natural, but energetic pace. Don't move your hands far from your body! Do not help exhale! We must try to make it invisible and silent. It should be remembered that the goal is to organize breathing, and movement is only a means for this. Repeat each exercise with pauses of 1, 2, 3 seconds - so that you get at least 128-160 breaths, and a total of 600-640 breathing movements for four exercises. It is recommended to combine the mastered movements with sound exercises in the future.
In older preschool age, the load on the musculoskeletal system and other body systems gradually increases due to greater intensity and increased dosage of exercises. Circular movements of the hands are introduced(back and forth) , jerking movements of straight and bent arms. In exercises for the torso, turns and bends to the sides, turns around oneself while standing and lying down are done. More attention is paid to special breathing exercises. Various individual manuals are widely used, in addition, simulation exercises are given. Breathing exercises are performed at an average pace. The number of repetitions increases to 6-8 times.
Exercises to lengthen exhalation
"Forward bends." I. p. - feet shoulder-width apart, arms along the body.
Calm breath in. p. 1-2-3 - springy forward bends with triple exhalation. Hands behind your back, look forward. 4 - return to i. p.
"Tilts to the side" (“Tilts with an umbrella”) . I. p. - feet shoulder-width apart, hands on the belt. Calm breath in. p. 1-2-3 - triple bend to the side, raise the opposite hand above your head - “cover yourself with an umbrella” - exhale. 4 - return to i. p.
“Whose ribbon sways longer?” Each child takes in his hand a narrow ribbon made of thin colored paper. Feet shoulder-width apart, arms below, slightly laid back. Calm breath. As you exhale, bring the ribbon to your mouth and make a slight tilt.
Special breathing exercises
“Blow out the candle.” Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Take a free breath and hold your breath slightly. Curl your lips. Take three short, rare exhalations, as if blowing out a burning candle: “Ugh!” Ugh! Ugh!". Keep your torso straight during the exercise.

Exhale forcefully through your mouth while lowering your arms and leaning forward.("Ha!") . Breathe out with relief, as if freeing yourself from worries. Slowly straighten up.
Exercises to strengthen the muscles of the nasopharynx and upper respiratory tract.
The exercises can be performed standing or while moving.
"Hedgehog". Turn your head left and right at the pace of movement. Simultaneously with each nasopharynx(the nostrils move and seem to connect, the neck is tense) ; exhale softly, voluntarily, through half-open lips.
"Ears". Shaking your head left and right, take deep breaths. The shoulders remain motionless, and the ears stretch towards the shoulders. Make sure that your body does not turn when you tilt your head.
Inhalations are performed with tension in the muscles of the nasopharynx. Exhalation is voluntary.
