Гимнастические стишки для самых маленьких
Еще до беременности попала мне в руки книга Smart Baby, Clever Child by Valentine Dmitriev, Ph.D.
Пишу о ней, потому что в этой книге я нашла не только интересную информацию по развитию ребенка с рождения до трех лет, но и стишки, по смыслу подходящие к описанным в ней занятиям. Подробно описывать сами упражнения не буду, из названия и так приблизительно понятно.
1. Visual Response to a Human Face: Baby, baby, what do you see? I see you and you see me.
2. Leg Pushes: Push your leg my baby, push your leg my darling. Longer, stronger, down we go (на мотив Ring Around the Rosie).
3. Leg Lifting: Up and down, up and down. Left leg, right leg. That's the way we like to play. Или: One, two, three, four. Up down once more. Мы это упражнение делаем под Sea-Saw, Sacra-Down.
4. Arm Exercises: Up and Down: Little arms go up up high, up up high, up up high. Little arms go down down low, and that's the way we go (на мотив Mary Had a Little Lamb).
5. Arm Exercises: In and Out: Little arms go out wide wide, out wide wide, out wide wide. Little arms go back inside, and then we'll play again (на мотив Mary Had a Little Lamb).
6. Therapy Ball Play: Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling. Side to side, side to side. Lightly, lightly bouncing. Lightly, lightly jouncing. What a ride, what a ride! (на мотив Frere Jacques).
7. Knee-Bouncing Play: Bouncy, bouncy baby, up and down we go. Bouncy, bouncy baby, fast and slow.
8. Little Boat: Knee Play, Swinging and Swaying: Little boat on the sea, carry baby back to me. Swinging, swaying on the sea, bring my baby home to me.

9. Left Hand - Right Foot, Right Hand - Left Foot: Shoe a little horse, shoe a mare. With a tap-tap here, and a tap-tap there.
