Communication games: 25 interesting communication games for children and adults to develop communication.
Communication games.
Communication games- this is the name of games for developing the ability to communicate, the ability to cooperate and interact with people in various life situations. Communication games can be played both at home and in the yard, in a children's center, at a holiday or a family party, at a training session, or used as a moment of relaxation after class. The article contains games that I use in my communication with children and which we love very much. In secret, I’ll tell you that I played them with teachers when I conducted classes with them on the development of communication in children. And even "adult aunts" played them with pleasure!
I wish you happy games! Start playing communication games together with us.
Communication game 1. "Hello"
It is necessary to have time in a limited time (1 minute or while the music is playing) to say hello to as many people as possible. The way in which we will greet each other is agreed in advance - for example, shake hands. At the end of the game, the results are summed up - how many times did you manage to say hello, whether someone was left without a greeting, what is the mood of the players now.
Communicative game 2. "Confusion"
There are two options in this communication game.
Option 1. "Confusion in a circle." Players stand in a circle and hold hands. You can't untie your hands! Players confuse the circle - without disengaging their hands, stepping over their hands, turning around and so on. When the mess is ready, the driver is invited into the room. He needs to untangle the players back into the circle without disengaging their hands.
This is a very fun and exciting game that kids, teenagers and adults play with great pleasure. Try it - you'll love it!
Option 2. "Snake" (the author of the option is N.Yu. Khryashcheva). Players line up and hold hands. Then they become entangled (the first and last players - that is, the "head" and "tail" of the snake pass under the hands of the players, step over the hands, and so on). The task of the driver is to unravel the snake without disengaging the hands of the players.
Communicative game 3. "Engine"
Players stand one behind the other. The first in the chain is a locomotive. His eyes are open. All other players - "wagons" - have their eyes closed. The locomotive carries its train straight, and snake, and with obstacles. The task of the "wagons" is to follow the "locomotive" forward without disengaging their hands. The task of the “locomotive” is to go in such a way as not to lose the wagons behind you. If the "trailer" is unhooked, then the train is "repaired" and goes on.
Communication game 4. "Kangaroo and kangaroo"
They play in pairs. One player is a kangaroo. It costs. The other player is the "kangaroo". He stands with his back to the kangaroo and crouches. Kangaroo and kangaroo cub hold hands. The task of the players in pairs is to reach the window (to the wall). The game can be played even with the smallest children both at home and on a walk.
Communicative game 5. "Mirror".
Players are divided into pairs. One player in a pair is a mirror. "Mirror" synchronously repeats all the movements of the second player in a pair. Then they change places. It's not as easy as it seems at first glance - try to keep up with the player as a mirror!
Then, when the children have mastered the option of playing in pairs, it will be possible to play this game with a group of children. Children stand in a line, and the driver is in front of them facing the players. The leader shows the movement, and the whole group repeats this movement synchronously behind him (note that the group repeats in a mirror, that is, if the leader raised his right hand, then the “mirror” raises his left hand).
Communication game 6. "Hold the ball"
In this game, we will learn to adjust our movements to the movements of our partner in the game.
Players stand in pairs and hold one common large ball. Each player holds the ball with both hands. On command, the players must sit down without dropping the ball from their hands, walk around the room with it, and jump together. The main task is to act in concert and not drop the ball.
When the players hold the ball with two hands without any problems, the task becomes more complicated - the ball will need to be held with only one hand for each player in the pair.
Communication game 7. "Favorite toy"
Everyone stands in a circle. In the hands of the host of the game is a soft toy. He says a few words about her - compliments: “Hello, little mouse! You are so funny. We love to play with you. Will you play with us?" Next, the facilitator invites the children to play with the toy.
The toy is passed in a circle, and each player who receives it says affectionate words about the toy: “You have such a pretty face”, “I like your long tail so much”, “You are very funny”, “You have such beautiful and soft ears” .
The game can be played even with small children - offering them the beginning of the phrase that the baby will finish: “You are very ...”, “You have beautiful ...”.
Communicative game 8. "Greeting" ("Clapperboard").
I really love different rituals invented with children. We, adults, very often think that this is a trifle, nonsense. But how important are they for children!
We with children do at a meeting "clapperboard". Everyone stands in a circle, arms outstretched forward. I open my palm, the children put their palms one on top of the other on my palm (it turns out a “slide” of our palms). Then we raise this "slide" up and all together do the "cracker" command. I say: “One, two, three” (to these words we raise our hands and reach up - and we reach very high as far as we can reach, without separating our hands). "Clap!" At the word “clap”, our common cracker clap to everyone’s joy - hands quickly spread apart in a “fountain”.
If there are few children, then during the circle before the clap we greet each other: “Hello, Tanya (Tanya’s hands fell into our “clapperboard”), hello Sasha” and so on.
Communicative game 9. "Needle and thread" (folk game).
All players stand next to each other. One player is a needle. Other players are a thread. "Needle" runs, changing the direction of movement - both straight, and in a snake, and in a circle, with sharp turns and smoothly. The rest of the players must keep up and adapt in their actions to their team.
Communication game 10. "What has changed?"
The players are divided into two groups. One group will guess, the other will guess. Those who will guess, leave the room. The players left in the room make a few changes to their appearance. For example, you can take someone else's handbag on your shoulder or unbutton one button on your shirt, tie a new rubber band on a pigtail, change places, change your hairstyle. When the players are ready, they call their comrades into the room. The other team has to guess what has changed. Then the teams change places. The game can be played not only by a team, but even by a couple.
It is good if there is a mirror in the room where the changes will take place - this is very convenient. But you can do without it and play this game even on a camping trip. It turns out to be very fun. Save props for this game (handkerchiefs around your neck, straps, hairpins and other things with which you can make changes to your appearance).
Communicative game 11. "Compliments".
All players stand in a circle and take turns complimenting each other. In compliments, you can note the mood, and appearance, and personal qualities, and much more.
This is a very enjoyable game - try it.
Communication game 12. "Guess"
All players sit on the mat. One player - the driver - turns his back to everyone. Players take turns patting him on the back. The task of the driver is to guess who stroked him now. Then the players change places so that everyone can be in the role of leader. The game can be played not only on the carpet, but also standing (for example, for a walk).
A similar game can be played in another version - call the driver by name - you get the game "Guess who called."
Communication game 13. "Find your child"
This is a game for family groups and family holidays. The game is beloved, wonderful, fun, already played many times by us. I love her very much!
The players are divided into two teams. Parents are on one team and their children are on the other. The parents take turns blindfolded and need to find their child among all the other children by touch. Children are not allowed to say or suggest anything at the same time. On the contrary, you need to confuse your parents - for example, change your jacket or remove the bow from your hair, run to another place in the room, sit down (so that you don’t guess by height), and so on. As soon as the parent has guessed his baby, he says: “Here is Anya!” (says the name of the child) and removes the bandage. If the parent did not guess correctly, then he receives a phantom, which is won back at the end of the game.
The game is wonderful, we always play with pleasure. Play with your friends!
Communication game 14. Lame duck
The duck has broken its leg and is now walking badly. Her role is played by one of the children. The child, playing the role of a duck, tries to show how painful, bad and sad he is. All other children comfort him, stroke him, say kind words, hug him, support him. You can play so that the children themselves perform the roles, or you can use toys and speak for them. In this communication game, toddlers learn to show empathy.
Communicative game 15. "Looking for a friend."
This game can only be played in a large group of children. You will need a set of pictures or a set of toys (2-3 bears, 2-3 bunnies, 2-3 dolls, 2-3 ducks, and so on). Each child is given one toy or one picture that has "friends" - the same pictures.
Children are invited to find friends for their toys (to find paired toys, that is, for a bunny to find other bunnies, for a bear - other bears). To the music, children are looking for friends. When friends for a toy are found, children with toys dance together and cheerfully to the music.
This is a game for young children who are just learning how to interact with each other.
Communication game 16. "Catch the eye"
This game develops mutual understanding. The game is played by an adult.
Players sit on a carpet or on chairs. The host looks at the players, and then stops looking at one of them for a few moments, as if calling him to him. The one on whom the leader’s gaze has stopped must stand up. The task of the players is to guess by looking when the host of the game calls you.
Then, when the players get used to the rules of the game, the children drive and try to understand each other by sight.
The game can be played not only with a group of children, but also in the family.
Communication game 17. "Swap places"
We are all different, but we have so much in common! We will see this in the course of the game.
Players either stand in a circle or sit on chairs. The host of the game offers to swap places for those who .... (Followed by tasks: "Change places those who love sweets", "Who cleans his bed every day", "Who has a cat at home" and so on).
Communication game 18. "I want to be friends with you"
This game is designed by O.V. Khukhlaeva. The game helps to establish a friendly environment in a group of adults and children.
The driver says: “I want to make friends ...” and then describes one of the group members. The participant, who guessed that they were describing him, quickly runs up to the driver and shakes his hand. And he becomes the leader in the game.
Very nice and friendly game.
Communication game 19. "Box with a secret"
This communicative game was also proposed and described by O.V. Khukhlaeva. You will need a fairly large cardboard box (for example, from under a computer or other household appliances). You can always find her with friends. In this box, you will need to cut large holes - such that a hand can freely crawl through them. In total, you need to make 4-6 holes. 4-6 people play accordingly (how many holes are in the box, so many players can be in your game). The players stick their hand into the box (the host at this time holds the box on the table), they find someone's hand there, get to know her and guess who it was, whose hand they just met.
Very fun and naughty game! It is interesting for adults too.
Communicative game 20. "Balls"
Players need to join hands and form a closed figure of any shape. If there are many people playing, then you need to first divide them into teams. A team can have several players (4-6 people).
Each team is given 3 colorful balloons. The task of the team is to keep their balls in the air as long as possible without disengaging their hands (you can throw the balls with your shoulder and even your knee, blow on them and use all the ways that come to your mind). The team that keeps the balls in the air the longest wins.
If adults are playing, then during the game you can add 2 more balls to each team - this is much more difficult and interesting!
For the youngest children, you need to offer 1 ball, which holds a pair of three players in the air. You can play with kids not only with a ball, but also with a fluff of cotton wool that you need to blow on (an old Russian folk game).
Communicative game 21. "Animal piano".
This communication game was developed by O.V. Khukhlaeva and develops the ability to cooperate with each other. Children sit in one line (it turns out a piano keyboard). The host of the game (adult) distributes to each child his voice - onomatopoeia (meow, oink, woof, mu, cococo, eider and others). The leader, that is, the "pianist", touches the heads of the children ("plays the keys"). And the "keys" each make their own sound.
You can also play on your knees - the keys. Then you can also introduce the volume of the sound into the game. If the pianist lightly touched the key, it sounds very quiet, barely audible; if it is stronger, then loudly. If it is strong, then the “key” is to speak loudly.
Communicative game 22. "Snowball".
This game is good for dating but can be used in other occasions as well. They play like this. The first player says his name. The next player says the name of the first player and his own name. The third player is the name of the first and second player and adds his name. And so in a circle. We end with the first player calling all the names. Names are very easy to remember on this guitar.
Not necessarily in this communicative game name names - you can name who loves or dislikes what, who has a dream, who came from where (if we play with children in a country camp) or who has a pet (that is, what we say, you can choose and invent yourself depending on the topic )
Communicative game 23. "Make Nesmeyan laugh."
One player is Nesmeyana. All the others are trying to make Nesmeyan laugh. The one who succeeds becomes the Nesmeyana in the next game.
Communication game 24. "Conspirator"
This game was developed by V. Petrusinsky. All players stand in a circle. The driver is in the center of the circle. He is blindfolded. Players dance around the leader. As soon as the driver says: “Stop”, the round dance stops. The task of the driver is to recognize the players by touch. If the driver recognizes the player, then the player leaves the game. The task is to become the best conspirator, that is, to make sure that you are not recognized at all or are the last to be recognized.
Very fun and entertaining game. What children don’t do is stand on a chair or crawl on all fours, disguise their hairstyle under a cap and bandage the bow of the dress in reverse (from the back, where it was, to the stomach). Try it - you'll love it!
Communication game 25. "Ears - nose - eyes."
All players stand in a circle. The host begins to speak out loud and at the same time show a part of the body on himself: “Ears-ears” (everyone shows ears), “Shoulders - shoulders” (everyone shows shoulders), “Elbows - elbows” (everyone shows elbows). Then the driver begins to deliberately confuse the players: he shows one part of the body, and names another. Children should, in case of a driver’s mistake, not repeat the movement after him. The winner is the one who has never made a mistake.
This game is played with equal enthusiasm by both kids and teenagers. It is also suitable for learning foreign languages. The vocabulary of play (called body parts) depends on the age of the children playing. It is enough to name the smallest parts of the body known to them - the nose, ears and others. For older ones, you can use more complex words - chin, elbows, forehead, eyebrows and others.
Communicative game 26. "Draw the picture."
The game is very simple. It can even be played together. One person begins to draw - draws a squiggle on a sheet of paper. The second player of the pair continues the drawing and again passes the paper and pencil to the first player. The first player continues again and so on until the drawing is completed.
If you play with a group, then the game is played a little differently. All players sit in a circle. They simultaneously begin to draw a drawing on a piece of paper and, at the signal of the presenter, pass their drawing on to the neighbor on the left. And they themselves receive a drawing from a neighbor on the right. Each player draws the resulting squiggle and, at the signal of the presenter, again passes the sheet of paper to the neighbor on the left. So all the drawings move in a circle until the leader signals the end of the game. The resulting drawings are then reviewed. We discuss what was conceived by the first player who started drawing, and what happened.
The game gives all children the opportunity to express themselves, here fantasy is not constrained by anything. Even very shy children enjoy playing this game.
Communicative game 27. "Conversation through the glass."
They play as a couple. One player seems to be in the store. The second one is on the street. But they forgot to agree on what to buy in the store. The player "on the street" gestures to the player "in the store" what he needs to buy. It is useless to shout: the glass is thick, they will not hear. You can only communicate with gestures. At the end of the game, the players exchange information - what they needed to buy, what the buyer understood from the gestures of his playmate.
You can also play this game in teams. One team guesses and its representative shows with gestures what is guessed. The other team guesses. Then the teams switch roles.
The game is interesting for both children and adults. You can "walk" to different stores - and to the "children's world", and to the "pet store", and to the "supermarket".
Communicative game 28. Sculptor and clay.
For this communicative game with preschoolers, you will need pictures (photos) of people in various poses. They can be copied online and printed.
They play in pairs. One child in a pair is a sculptor, the other is clay. Each pair receives a picture of a person in a certain pose. This figure to the child - the "sculptor" needs to be molded from his "clay". You can’t talk, because clay does not understand words, you can just “sculpt”. Then the "sculptor" and "clay" change roles.
With teenagers and adults, you can use more complex options for the game: for example, sculpt a whole sculptural group of several people on a given topic. And then switch roles.
Communicative game 29. Blind and guide.
This game is played in pairs. One player in a pair is blind. He is blindfolded. The other must lead him from one end of the room to the other end. Before the start of the game, obstacles are created in the room - they put boxes, toys, chairs and lay out other items. The guide must lead the "blind" so that he does not stumble. After that, the players change roles.
Communicative game 30. "Boastful Contest".
This game was developed by E. O. Smirnova (I highly recommend to teachers her book “Communication of preschoolers with adults and peers”, publishing house Mosaic - Synthesis, in which you will find a system of wonderful games with preschoolers for the development of communication).
The players sit in a circle. The host proposes to hold a bouncer contest. And the winner will be the one who boasts best of all ... a neighbor on the right! You need to tell about your neighbor, what is good about him, what he can do, what actions he has done, what you like about him. The task is to find as many advantages in your neighbor as possible.
Children can name any virtues (from the point of view of adults, these may not be virtues - for example, a very loud voice - but the opinion of the child is important to us)!
Although this communication game is intended for children, it is very good to play in a team of employees at work. We played and everyone was very happy! It is so nice to praise colleagues and hear their words of support addressed to you.

Tell the players: “Look your partner in the eyes and thank him silently -
only hands and eyes - for this dance. Then put your hands down, stretch
a little and shake your feet."
Partners have 5 minutes to discuss the following questions:
What was experienced during the game? Did feelings change during
games? What tasks were easy to complete? What was difficult? Can

Communication is the ability of a person to express his thoughts and feelings so that they are correctly understood by other people. A child, entering this world, from a very early age begins to communicate with adults and children, manifesting himself in one way or another. And in order for this communication to take place in the most favorable conditions, it is important to teach the child to communicate correctly. And teaching children is easiest and most effective in a playful way.
Communicative game for children involves joint activities, self-expression and mutual cooperation, development of communication skills and the formation of friendly relations. During these games, the child experiences genuine joy together with other children, which later turns into cheerfulness, optimism, the ability to get along with other people, the ability to overcome life's difficulties and achieve goals.
The lack of communication skills leads to a delay in the mental development of the child, and in the future - to the formation of a negative life position.
With the help of these games in children:
- Bodily clamps are removed;
- There is an emotional discharge;
- Imagination, facial expressions and gestures develop;
- Attention is activated;
- Skills of rules of conduct are manifested;
- Self-esteem rises.
Communication games for young children
Communication with peers for children aged 2-3 years becomes a necessary need and is of great importance in the formation of personality. It is from this age, when a direct interest in another child begins to appear, that there is a desire to attract the attention of a peer, to interest him in himself, you need to teach children to communicate with each other.
An invaluable service in this will be communicative games for young children. These games teach a friendly attitude towards each other, the manifestation of love and respect for others, the expression of sympathy, care and compassion.
Consider a few games aimed at developing communication skills in children:
- Game "Affectionate name". Children stand in a circle, in the center of which each of them goes in turn. The rest of the children, with the help of the teacher, name variants of the affectionate name of the child in the center of the circle;
- The game "Who came to visit us?", Contributes to the formation of self-esteem in children, the development of a friendly attitude towards other children. An adult agrees with two or three children about what animals they will portray, then they take turns entering the circle, the rest of the children must guess which animal came to visit them;
- "The Little Dragon Catches Its Tail" is a great communication game for kids. It helps bring the group together. Children become a "train", holding on to the belt in front of the one standing. To the sound of music, the first participant (dragon head) tries to catch the last one (dragon tail), the rest hold tightly to each other;
- The game "The bird's wing hurts" forms love for others in children. One child portrays a sick bird, he is sad, lies down on the rug, the rest of the children, following the example of the teacher, take turns trying to console her, support her with affectionate words;
- The game "Who will wake you up better" contributes to the manifestation of their feelings. One child depicts a sleeping cat, the rest of the children try to wake her up with various affectionate and gentle words and touches. At the end of the game, the children decide whose way of waking up the kitty was the best;
- The communicative game for children "Animal Piano" develops the ability to cooperate. Children squat down in a row, an adult distributes cards with the image of various animals and, then, touching the head of each child, depicts playing the piano. At the same time, children reproduce the voices of the animals depicted on the cards.

film reel
Target: the development of non-verbal means of communication, the development of memory.

The first child comes up with a word, the second must repeat it and add one of his own words, the third - repeat the first two words and say his own, the fourth - repeat the first three words and say the fourth, etc. When all the children say what they want, they should show a movie with with the help of plasticity and facial expressions.
A comment: instead of showing a movie, the game may end with a fairy tale or story using the suggested words. If an adult sets the task of liberating children's muscles, developing the ability to convey their feelings and experiences non-verbally (by facial expressions and pantomime), then it is better to use the first option for ending the game.
Fingers are good animals, fingers are evil animals
Target: development of the emotional sphere, communication skills.
Number of players: any.
Game description: children imagine that their fingers are good cats, evil mice, good wolf cubs, evil hares, etc.
A comment: an adult invites children to turn their fingers, for example, on the right hand into good wolf cubs, and on the left hand into evil hares. They need to talk to each other, get to know each other, play, maybe quarrel. If the children are doing well, you can invite them to get acquainted with the hands of other children. In addition to the developmental effect, the game makes it possible to identify the features of children's communication.
The game is useful for hyperactive, aggressive and autistic children. It helps them feel the possibilities of their body, find new ways to establish contact, overcome the fear of physical contact.
If "yes" - clap, if "no" - stomp
Target: development of communication skills of children, development of auditory attention.

Interview
Target: development of communication skills, an active vocabulary, the ability to enter into a dialogue.
Number of players: 3 or more people.
Required accessories: chair.
Game description : children choose a leader, and then, imagining that they are adults, take turns taking a chair and answering the questions that the leader will ask them. The host asks the child to introduce himself by name and patronymic, tell about where and by whom he works, whether he has children, what hobbies he has, etc.
A comment: in the early stages of the game, children often find it difficult to select questions. In this case, the adult takes on the role of facilitator, offering the children a sample of the dialogue. Questions can be about anything, but it must be remembered that the conversation should be "adult".
This game helps to get to know children who have just joined the group, as well as to involve shy children in communication. If the children are still very new to each other, the rule can be slightly changed: the child who caught the ball calls the name of the previous player, then his own, and then (if he knows) the name of the child to whom the ball will be thrown.
On the bridge
Target: development of communication skills, motor dexterity.
Number of players: 2 teams.
Game description : an adult invites children to walk along the bridge over the abyss. To do this, a bridge is drawn on the floor or on the ground - a strip 30-40 cm wide. According to the condition, two people must walk along the “bridge” towards each other at the same time, otherwise it will turn over. It is also important not to cross the line, otherwise the player is considered to have fallen into the abyss and is out of the game. The second player also drops out with him (because when he was left alone, the bridge turned over). While two children are walking along the “bridge”, the rest are actively “cheering” for them.
A comment: having started the game, the children must agree on the pace of movement, monitor synchronism, and when they meet in the middle of the bridge, carefully change places and reach the end.
Tiger hunting
Target: development of communication skills.
Number of players: at least 4 people.
Required accessories: small toy (tiger).
Game description : the children stand in a circle, the leader turns to the wall and counts loudly to 10. While the leader is counting, the children pass the toy to each other. When the host finishes counting, the child who has the toy closes the tiger with his palms and stretches his arms forward. The rest of the kids do the same. The driver must find the tiger. If he guessed correctly, then the one who had the toy becomes the driver.
A comment: Difficulties may arise while playing in autistic children, so they can be allowed to first look at how other children play.
You can train children in the ability to restrain emotions, not to show them outwardly. This is quite difficult for preschoolers. But in a playful way, this can be taught (games like "The sea is worried ...", "Princess-Nesmeyana").
Siamese twins
Target: development of communication skills, the ability to coordinate their actions, the development of graphic skills.
Number of players: multiple of two.

Each hand is given a piece of chalk. The crayons should be different colors. Before drawing begins, children can agree among themselves what they will draw. Drawing time - 5-6 minutes. To complicate the task, one of the players can be blindfolded, then the “sighted” player must direct the movements of the “blind”.
Hello, dear parents of future first-graders. This article is especially for you as we continue to prepare for school. But this does not mean at all that those mothers and fathers who have crossed this important stage cannot participate in the discussion of the topic, since what we will talk about today can be useful at any childhood. Communication games for preschoolers - what is it and what is it for?
Lesson plan:
The need for communication training
It is no secret to any of us adults that being able to communicate is very important. Agree, it's great when a person knows how to clearly explain and agree, as well as listen and hear no less significant.
Are we all good at communicating? Is it in our habits to say hello when we meet and say goodbye when we part, to apologize for mistakes and rejoice at successes?
Every parent wants his baby to be surrounded by friends and not be known as a hermit, able to play and work in a team and not be a loner. This is especially important when the moment comes to go on an independent voyage at the beginning of school life. A new team, unfamiliar teachers - how to find a common language when parents cannot be around every minute?
Sociability as a means of interaction with others comes to the child as he develops. Is it possible to instill these skills and help the child become more open to society and less withdrawn? Psychologists convince that of course it is possible! And as always, it is recommended to do this through the game. It is the game activity that allows the child to learn something new more easily and more effectively.
Why does a child need communicative games?
The formation of the abilities of communication with others necessary for the future first-grader takes place through specially designed communicative games. Thanks to such activities, children begin to control their emotions, learn to empathize, and positively tune in to others. In general, they are smoothly preparing to join the team.
They all together as one team get acquainted with verbal and non-verbal means of communication and put into their baggage of knowledge the norms and rules of behavior that will be useful in the future. Such means of social interaction include words and intonation, facial expressions and gestures, postures and movements. How many of you do not know how you can make the same phrase with the help of intonation from positive aggressive? And how much you can see in one glance!
Playing in a team according to the scenario, children:
- easy to adapt to school,
- relieve tightness and emotionally liberate,
- develop fantasy and imagination,
- increase mindfulness,
- train the skills of using facial expressions and gestures,
- recognize feelings and learn to distinguish them.
The most interesting thing is that in order to develop the ability to openly communicate and cooperate with people, you do not need to “reinvent the wheel” at all. You can play communicative games on a walk in the yard, in a free moment at home, at a children's party or on a family vacation in nature. All that is needed for this is a positively minded team.
We communicate while playing
Games for the development of communication are different:
- plastic improvisation - it develops the imagination, in it the child is given the task to play a certain role,
- a mirror game in which movements are repeated, developing non-verbal communication skills using gestures and facial expressions,
- tactile game, when communication occurs through touch.
Here are some of the simplest communication games that allow you to easily shape social development and collective cooperation.
Politeness
To do this, you need an ordinary ball and a friendly company. We stand in a circle and throw the ball to each other, but not just like that, but while saying polite greetings, apologies, thanks and goodbyes.
Present
Such a game will teach you to share and be able to please others. Children are given the task to become a wizard and come up with a gift for everyone. When summing up, the best gift for the company is selected.
situations
Such a scenario helps to teach to express one's opinion and enter into a conversation, experience and feel. Everyone is given a certain leading role, on which the resolution of a life situation depends. This may be a task to reconcile two quarreling friends or meet unfamiliar children, take pity on a prodigal puppy, or ask to play with a toy you like.
hands communicate
This tactile game teaches to understand each other without verbal communication. In it, they break into pairs, sitting at arm's length, and with their eyes closed they execute commands: hands quarreled, hands get to know each other, hands make friends, hands part.
Ocean is shaking
A wonderful game from our childhood that teaches mindfulness and imagination. Let me remind you that in it, the children first freeze in the pose of a marine inhabitant or an object conceived by them on a marine theme, and when the leader touches them, they come to life and begin to show it. All the other participants try to guess who it is.
We play with music
Do you love music? Did you know that it can be taken as an assistant to develop communication skills? Musical communicative games, also called orff-pedagogy, after the name of the author, the German composer Orff, successfully cope with the social and moral education of preschoolers.
Everything can be attributed to them - from ditties to songs, from dances to musical scenes. Such games carry speech, facial expressions, movements, tactile sensations and visual perception along with music.
- The most popular musical game is a dance with a change of partners, which is found in the folklore of any nation. I think you know how it goes. Simple movements, easily remembered by children: two stomps, three slams - they turned, changed.
- And who does not know the birthday "Karavai"? Why not a communication game? Children are ready to praise each other for hours!
Such musical games help remove the barriers between those who feel like a star and those who try to be on the sidelines. In them all children become equal. After all, any dance and song is, first of all, a benevolent mood and joyful emotions.
Well, are you ready to develop by playing? Let's put on performances together, sing songs and dance and become the most sociable! Let's go to first grade, make a bunch of new friends and chat!
And dear moms and dads, who have almost forgotten how it was - the first time in the first grade, please tell us what communication games you have in your arsenal and how you helped your child prepare for the new team. Share your tips for parents of future first-graders in the comments.
And finally, I want to introduce you to another music and dance game. It's called "I love you". I'd love to play this.)
I wish you and your children easy and pleasant communication!
Always yours, Evgenia Klimkovich.
