Explanatory memorandum

State policy in the interests of supporting children’s vacations is implemented in the process of creating favorable legal, social, environmental conditions in Russia that provide children with rest and recovery necessary for harmonious physical and spiritual development.
On the basis of MOU SOS No. 1 in Cherepanova, a summer camp with a day stay on various topics and programs operates annually. The Magic Country (7 Underground Kings) program lasts 18 days.
Participants - children 7-14 years old:
The program is based on the pedagogy of activity and pedagogy of relations. The main premise of pedagogy of activity: personality develops in the process of activity, so education should be carried out when the child is “involved” in meaningful activity. Educational activities are more effective if they are collective. The idea of relationship pedagogy is that the true existence of a person is possible only at the point of contact with others, i.e. in the sphere of interpersonal relations. Pedagogy of relations develops a personality-oriented approach. Care for the development of the child, most successfully, is expressed in the attention to the system of relations in which he lives and develops. Therefore, the main task of teachers is to teach children to understand relationships. Recently, there has been a sharp decline in the desire of children to participate in collective affairs. Children almost do not know games, do not know how to organize their leisure. Their inner world consists of continuous complexes that make communication difficult. Many are unable to express their emotions, feelings, take part in a conversation, convince and listen. Considering all this, the program selects games, contests, entertainment aimed at the emancipation of the child, the development of his humanistic, ethical and strong-willed qualities.
The camp program is built on the basis of a story-role game based on a fairy tale
Ah. Volkov, "Seven Underground Kings." In the course of the camp shift are organized
3 thematic periods:
I"I can do anything."
II II"If you went on a journey with a friend";
III III III“I, you, he, she, the whole country together.”
The activity in each thematic period is aimed at solving the general problems of the program and logically continues the story-role game "Labyrinths of the Underground Country". All children and adults of the camps become participants of the game, they are awarded the title of “rudocops” who have to excavate the “Sacred Source” and open their way to the Magical Land, for this, children must “dig” the corners of their soul, their knowledge and skills and find their place in the cause of general success. The game has its own laws, principles of construction, but despite this, its multivariability is observed, some psychological techniques and methods are used:
Empathy (the ability to self-experience);
Reflection (the process of analysis and self-analysis)
- selection method.

The programme will be as follows:

• Level of developmentThe school day camp program.
