Fairy tale "The Magic Button" Iris Review
Once upon a time there lived a hedgehog. One day he was walking along the path and found a button.
- A nice gift for my new frock coat, thought the hedgehog.
But the squirrel's neighbor said that it would be nice to find the one who lost this button.
- This button cannot belong to the tit, she has a yellow vest, and the button is red,” said the hedgehog.
- It doesn't suit the hare either. “His coat is gray or white,” the squirrel suggested.
- Maybe a red fox or a brown bear lost a button? - the squirrel and the hedgehog wondered. But the friends did not want to meet either the fox or the bear.
And the latest news was brought by a magpie on its tail. She said that Baba Yaga lost the button, and that this button is magic.
The hedgehog and the squirrel were happy, but a little upset. They were glad that the button was magic, and magic is always interesting, but they were upset because they had to go to Baba Yaga, and she was always doing something clever.
But there is nothing to do, let the hedgehog and the squirrel go to Baba Yaga. She saw it like a button and immediately smiled.
- This is from my sundress,” she said. And then she squinted slyly, looked at the good-natured hedgehog and squirrel and said:
- I will give this button to you. She's not easy. If you rub her lightly, she will start telling stories.
The friends were delighted and thanked Baba Yaga.
Now, when the hedgehog and the squirrel go out to play at dusk, they take a magic button with them. And she tells them stories...
Big head, narrow collar? Are mice peeking out of their holes? What it is? ... Right. This is a Button Made by Lyubov Vladimirovna Mayorova teacher-speech pathologist
What is a button? A button is a fastener on clothing and other garments designed to connect its parts. A button on one part of the garment is threaded into a loop on another part, thereby fastening it.
When did the button appear? The most ancient buttons and button-like objects were used as decoration rather than for fastening.
How did the button appear in Rus'? In Russian, everything is a little different: a button is a “pugach” or “scarecrow” (according to V. Dahl’s dictionary), which directly indicates its magical purpose.
P button in Rus'. Gold and silver buttons-weights on caftans were especially popular during the times of Kievan Rus (IX-XII centuries)
Button in Rus'. The largest number of buttons was supposed to be on the tigilei (a quilted caftan with short sleeves worn by warriors). By the way, a Russian sundress, a women's corset, a short caftan of Cossack women, and a winter sheepskin coat were fastened with buttons.
From the history of buttons. The 18th century is called the golden age of buttons, when their variety was limitless. The following materials were used for production: gold, silver, tin, steel, brass, glass, horn, ivory, mother-of-pearl, tortoiseshell, enamel, wood.
Function of a button The utilitarian function of a button is that it is designed to connect parts of clothing.
The decorative function of buttons is also well known. Sometimes buttons were the main decoration of a suit and were worth more than the entire wardrobe. Button function
Magical function - the button was a type of amulet that was supposed to scare away hostile forces. A shot, a piece of tin or a pebble was placed in hollow buttons, which, when moved, produced a muffled sound, reminiscent of the sound of a bell. Button function
The informative function appeared quite late. The button is used as a sign of belonging to a certain group, profession, branch of the military (forces), etc. (service uniforms, liveries, etc.) Function of the button
Manufacturing material Buttons were and are made from a wide variety of materials: metal, glass, wood, amber, mother-of-pearl, leather, bone, porcelain, ebonite, etc. Since the 1930s of the 20th century, plastic buttons have become widespread.

Application of buttons

The big story of a small button.
You can become an archangel, a fool or a criminal, and no one will notice. But if you are missing a button, everyone will pay attention to it. (E.M. Remarque)
Button. What could be interesting about this familiar, everyday object? “Clear as a button” we find in the dictionary of comparisons.
However, if you look at it from a slightly different angle, a lot of interesting things may open up. After all, every thing has not only its own history, but also a lot of fantastically exciting features.
The first fasteners, which resembled buttons, appeared around the 3rd millennium BC. A real button with two holes for sewing was found at excavations in the Indus Valley.
In Europe, the first buttons appeared in the 4th century BC. among the Greek warriors.
During the Middle Ages, knights brought them to Europe from the Middle East, but buttons gained popularity only in the 18th century. And at first, oddly enough, men showed interest in the new fasteners. Women greeted the appearance of buttons with hostility and continued to use pins.
Men's clothing at that time was not inferior to women's clothing in brightness and luxury. Buttons were made of precious metals and were often decorated with precious stones.
The button, which was then called a “button,” reached Russian fashionistas in the late 15th and early 16th centuries.
If we collect the ideas of scientists from different fields of knowledge - historians, ethnographers, etc., then we can distinguish four main functions of a button:
1.utilitarian (button like fastener);
3.magical (button - amulet or talisman);
4.semiotic or informative (button as an identification mark).
On the one hand, buttons found in various excavations clearly served as fasteners. Thus, the uniform of Greek warriors was fastened at the front with belts using several metal buttons with “legs.”
On the other hand, among the archaeological finds of ancient Greek art from the 4th century. BC. to the 1st century AD There are buttons made of gold, which speaks, first of all, of their decorative value. It is a known fact that the cost of a fur coat was two and a half times less than the cost of the buttons placed on it.
Today, hardly anyone remembers that in the past the button was one of the important magical amulets designed to scare away forces hostile to humans. A pellet, a piece of tin or a round pebble was placed in the hollow buttons, which produced a muffled sound when moved, reminiscent of the sound of a bell. And the buttons turned into amulets.
Interestingly, button in Russian has the same root as the words scare, scarecrow, pugach. Some Russian researchers believe that this coincidence is due precisely to the fact that the button has long served as protection against evil forces. From this we can conclude that among Western peoples the main functions of a button have always been utilitarian and decorative, while among the Slavs the function of a talisman was put in first place.
When buttons appeared, they were worn much more than necessary, because the more noble and rich a person was, the more there should have been. It is known, for example, that the French king Francis I once ordered a jeweler 13,600 small gold buttons to decorate just one velvet suit.
In many countries, philobutonism - collecting buttons - is not inferior in popularity to philately - collecting postage stamps.
The button was the very first clothing fastener invented by man. And, as it turned out, the longest-lasting one. This is not only a functional detail, but also a decorative accessory, which often allows one to “break away” from clothes and live an independent life. In the last two or three years, interest in buttons in our country has increased noticeably. Directories and a thematic website appeared on the Internet. We began to take something as seemingly insignificant as a button seriously. This is very important, because a button is a witness of the era.

(DEMONSTRATION OF BUTTONS COLLECTION)
The poem “Button” by R. Sefa is read out.
A button is hanging, missing,
She lives in peace.
They don't notice the button
Until it comes off.
Imagine, please, that buttons have disappeared all over the Earth. What should people do? What can replace buttons? (children's answers).
You dealt with this quickly, well done; Anything will do - Velcro, laces, pieces of wood, and pins.
How good it is that they exist. It’s even better when there are a lot of them, a full box.
There are buttons in front of you, and I have buttons, buttons in boxes.
In each box they are in a certain order.
On the count of “one-two-three” I show you my box of buttons, then from memory you lay out your buttons in the same order as mine.
(Children have a set of cardboard circles: 2 red, 2 yellow, 1 green). The teacher has cards on which all the circles are located in a certain order. The teacher shows one card after another, the children remember the location of the circles, the teacher removes the cards, the children lay out the circles from memory. (Game "Lights").
What do you think the buttons are for? Have they always been like this?
Listen to the unusually entertaining story of the "button".
(The story is accompanied by a display of illustrations and items on the topic)
Do you know that the clothing of primitive man was the skin of a killed animal?! The skin was thrown over the shoulders and, so that it did not slip, it was held with hands. But primitive man needed to free his hands for work: to prepare tools for hunting, to make a trap for a mammoth. That's why fasteners appeared on clothes. The first fasteners were hairpins made from ground stones and ties made from durable plant fibers.
Do we use fasteners invented by primitive man? (Children's answers).
That's right, from time immemorial we have received such a method of fastening as a belt and a belt. Of course, it is very different from its great-great-great-brother and now plays the role of more of a decorative element.
The ancient Romans and Greeks used brooches - metal fasteners made of bronze similar to a modern safety pin.
In the 12th century, leather, metal, and bone fasteners appeared and became widespread. Only rich people wore them, and such fasteners were more expensive than the clothes themselves. Ordinary people used rope ties. The button familiar to us appeared much later, in the 16th century, i.e. more than 400 years ago. Moreover, women did not immediately like the buttons, but men really liked them.
The button was treated as a luxury item, and in ordinary life they did without it. Buttons were made from precious stones and passed on from generation to generation. Buttons became fashionable, and a “button epidemic” began in Europe. The more buttons, the more noble the gentleman. A self-respecting nobleman sewed about 40 buttons onto his camisole.
In the Czech Republic, in the city of Jablonec, there is a museum of buttons from different eras and countries.
Do you know that on women's clothing buttons are sewn on the left, and on men's clothing on the right.
Did you listen carefully to my story? Then answer the questions:
What material were buttons made of in the old days?
(made from precious metals and stones, copper, tin, wood, bone and even fruit seeds)
What material is used now to make buttons?
Buttons can be plastic, metal, wood, covered with fabric or leather.
Can everyone sew on buttons? No? Now we will learn.
A button with four holes is drawn on the board. Children must come up with as many options as possible for “sewing on” a button. (They draw buttons in their albums).
Fizminutka:
So we threw up our hands,
As if they were surprised.
And to each other to the ground
Bowed to the waist!
Bent over, straightened up,
They bent over and straightened up.
Lower, lower, don't be lazy,
Bow and smile.
Play with a button and create
And by all means, speak up!
Show your friends
And teach mom and dad
All buttons fastened.
Simple as a button.
FINAL PART.
Don't get lost, don't get lost!

Are you tired? Now let's move a little (rhythmic music sounds)
Fizminutka:
So we threw up our hands,
As if they were surprised.
And to each other to the ground
Bowed to the waist!
Bent over, straightened up,
They bent over and straightened up.
Lower, lower, don't be lazy,
Bow and smile.
Starting position – feet shoulder-width apart. (Recite the poem while performing the movements.)
Now pay attention to the shape of the buttons and sizes.
(DEMONSTRATION OF BUTTONS COLLECTION).
Which of these buttons can be sewn on a coat?
Which ones will go with an elegant dress? Why?
What types of fasteners besides buttons do you know? (Children's answers)
That's right, it's a zipper, buttons, Velcro. And each of these clasps has its own history. The zipper lock, for example, was invented by the Swedish engineer Gideon Senbeck about a hundred years ago. At first it was heavy, metallic and bulky and it was very expensive. Now this fastener has become light and convenient, it can be seen everywhere: on jackets, boots, bags...
You should not chase the most fashionable, expensive fasteners. We must remember that the main thing in clothing is not the most fashionable fastener, but neatness. Very beautiful and expensive buttons will not decorate clothes if they are fastened with frayed, torn loops. And the most modest button looks beautiful and aesthetically pleasing on neatly ironed clothes.
And guys, you can come up with various games with buttons.
Play with a button and create
And by all means, speak up!
Show your friends
And teach mom and dad
How to make new button patterns
And successfully develop fine motor skills.
And also listen to Russian proverbs about buttons (from Dahl’s dictionary):
- The buttons are gilded, and I haven’t eaten for three days.
- A smart girl is like a bright button.
- The buttons are not molded, the loops are not twisted, nothing is done.
If you fasten the first button incorrectly, then all the rest will go awry.
All buttons fastened.
Simple as a button.
It seems to an envious person that the other person’s gold glitters, but if he comes closer, it’s a copper button. (Tajik proverb)
You can't sew buttons on someone else's mouth.
Now let's imagine ourselves as artists for five minutes. You have received an urgent order: to paint a picture “Merry Lawn”. And your magic pencil suddenly began to draw only buttons.
Try to complete the order without hurting the pencil.
(On a large sheet of Whatman paper, the children draw a lawn with buttons - an image using non-standard means - flowers from buttons, and if you consider that buttons come in different shapes, you get a very interesting picture. Children work to the accompaniment of calm music).
FINAL PART.
So what benefit did we get from today's conversation?
We learned the history of the appearance of the button. We talked about the button, its appearance, purpose, role in the aesthetic design of clothes. Let's watch our buttons. So that we always have them sewn on.
Button, button, hold on tight
Don't get lost, don't get lost!
You look so good on our dress
The outfit is in order - the soul rejoices!
