Requirements for sports corners ↑
During clearance of area for physical activity it is necessary to consider some requirements. The hallmarks of this should be:
- Substantial saturation. This suggests that kindergarten should be all you need for all-round physical development of kids of a certain age group.
- The flexibility of the playing space. This option means that on a small area to fit items for different activities which do not limit free space.

- Hygiene of the premises.
- Compliance with the interior of the room. This is to ensure that the children wanted to engage in physical activity. Even with the good work of educators at the wrong design, many will not want to play your favorite games.
- According to the age peculiarities. Thus it is necessary to create conditions in which children have free access to all the presented items.

The task of the educator to create sporting area ↑
In the design of area educators, especially, should care about creating a variety of physical gaming environment that will optimize physical activity. Improper placement of inventory or in the absence of the necessary items to engage in physical activity will not all kids or that time will be spent effectively.
Also teachers need to ensure that children possessed knowledge about the variety of outdoor games and exercise. Since we are talking about young children, should think about how to present information in graphical form.
Also, educators should promote the development of such qualities as flexibility, agility, coordination and quickness. It should encourage motor creativity of each pupil, and not just try to get all kids to do only what they say.
One of the most important components of the education of children is to promote a healthy lifestyle.
Mistakes made in the design of the sports area ↑
When observing children in kindergarten, you notice that many of them do not aspire to be in the sports area. But why does this happen? The reasons may be several:
- Static and monotony of the symbols used. In the absence of interesting machines and other implements children’s sports area might be interested in the child only on the first day of kindergarten.
- Mismatch of equipment to the children’s age peculiarities. Because of this, many children are not interested to engage themselves in the sports area.
- The presence of a ban on visiting the area at a certain time. Some teachers use bans to make it easier for them to control the behavior of all children. But such actions contribute to reducing the time spent on physical activity. Such bans also kill the independence in pupils.
The most common reason for because of which sports corners in kindergartens are equipped with all the rules, becomes the lack of a sufficient amount of money needed to purchase equipment and additional materials. To correct this situation, you can create attributes with their own hands from scrap materials.
It is also worth remember that the design should pay attention to the coverage of sports area. It needs to be in the place where for children will be enough light for the game. If this condition is not adhered to, then many kids just don’t want to play in a poorly lit place, and in the worst case you’ll ruin your eyes.
Contests, identify the best sports area ↑
In many kindergartens held a competition, the results of which revealed the best sports area. Such activities encourage teachers to creative activity, and parents are attracted to the problems of physical education of preschool children.
In sport corners in kindergartens much change, which contributes to a more active engagement of the pupils. To identify the best sports area the criteria mentioned earlier (hygiene, safety, originality, etc.). In order to win in this competition, it is not enough just to make beautiful part of the premises and create original equipment.
One of the evaluation criteria of the sports area becomes the amount of time that children spend in it. This means that the sports area in the first place to arouse the interest of children.
An important factor is the knowledge of children of different mobile games, reflected on the stands. Lack of knowledge suggests that teachers do not provide such information to the children.
