Children's immunity is very fragile. Parents often do not understand the reasons for frequent acute respiratory infections, runny nose, and prolonged cough. This may be due to shallow breathing. It is defective - inhalation and exhalation are performed at incomplete force. Ventilation of the lungs deteriorates, the body lacks oxygen.
Breathing exercises quickly and effectively help preschoolers cope with illnesses and strengthen the immune system.
The benefits of breathing exercises
It is easy to determine that your baby has a poorly developed respiratory system. Pay attention to the following external signs:
- Pallor
- Fatigue
- Drowsiness
- Slowness
- Retarded physical development (underdeveloped chest, muscles)
- Breathing through your mouth
- Frequent respiratory diseases.
The whole body suffers from oxygen starvation. First of all, the brain. The purpose of breathing exercises is to enrich the blood with oxygen. During classes, the general condition of the children improves. They become more active and efficient. This further affects the development of the intellect and body.
- Asthma, frequent bronchitis, laryngitis, adenoids, acute respiratory infections, etc.
Immunity improves by increasing resistance to viruses, hardening, and developing the muscles of the respiratory system.
- For gastrointestinal diseases
The motility of the gastric and intestinal muscles improves.
- Diseases of the musculoskeletal, musculoskeletal systems, cerebral palsy.
Blood circulation in the muscles improves.
- For heart diseases
A combination of exercise therapy and a respiratory simulator.
- At ,
The muscles of the speech organs are trained.
Goals and objectives of breathing exercises in kindergarten
Preschool teachers introduce breathing exercises into group classes with a single goal - to strengthen the respiratory system of preschool children.
There are many more goals:
- Strengthening the immune system
- Development of the muscles of the larynx, nasopharynx, etc.
- Correction of speech breathing defects
- Increase blood oxygen levels
- Improve the metabolic processes of the child's body
- Teach children nasal breathing
- Get rid of shallow breathing
- Develop smooth inhalation, long exhalation
- Strengthen the physiological breathing of preschoolers
- Train strength, the rhythm of inhalation and exhalation.
At the same time as strengthening the respiratory and speech apparatus, educators develop the intelligence of children in kindergarten. Training is carried out to music, poetry is read to create a rhythm of movements. All this has a beneficial effect on the overall development of children. For this reason, it is very stupid to talk about the harm or lack of benefit of breathing machines.
General execution rules
The main task of the teacher is to teach the child to correctly use inhalation and exhalation. Follow the general requirements for preparing for and conducting classes:
- Ventilate the room before class. The air should be fresh, but not cold.
- Each exercise is performed for 2-3 minutes.
- Do not inhale or exhale too sharply. Control their smoothness.
- Conduct the first classes lying on your back.
- Don’t tell your preschooler: “Breathe faster, deeper.” Don't fix his attention on his breathing. Let him gradually get used to inhaling and exhaling automatically.
- Watch for tension in the muscles of your chest, neck, and shoulders. They should be relaxed.
- If your preschooler has a runny nose, do not forget to clear the nasal passages of dirt and mucus before starting classes.
- During periods of illness, reduce the load on your kindergartener when performing breathing exercises by half.
Exercises
The level of difficulty of tasks and the duration of training depend on the age and individual characteristics of preschoolers.
You can conduct classes during morning exercises, repeat them while walking before lunch, in the evening. The form of classes is playful.
Complex for children 2-3 years old
| Exercise | Target | Starting position | Instructions | Replays |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bubbles | Let's learn to breathe correctly. | Standing, arms are calmly extended along the body. | Inhale through your nose, inflate your cheeks (like bubbles). Exhale through your mouth. | 2-3 |
| Pump | Teaching proper breathing. | standing | As you inhale, we squat; as you exhale, we rise to the starting position. The lower the squat, the deeper the inhalation. | 3-4 |
| Chopping wood | Strengthening physiological breathing. | Standing, arms down | We inhale, our arms rise up, and as we exhale, we bend over and stretch our arms a little forward, as if we were chopping wood. | 3 |
| Trumpeter | Learning to exhale smoothly. | Sitting or standing in a comfortable, stable position. Form your hands into a pipe and bring it to your mouth. | Inhale freely, and as you exhale say loudly: “Pfft...”. | 5 |
| Engine | Rhythmic breathing, control over its frequency. | We walk around the playroom. Using our hands we depict the movements of the wheels of a steam locomotive. | While walking one after another, as we exhale, we say rhythmically: “Chukh-Chukh.” | 30 seconds |
| Ball | Long exhalation training. | Standing. There is a ball in his hands. Hands prepare to throw. | Take a shallow breath, as you exhale, throw the ball forward with force and say in a drawn-out manner: “Uh-uh.” | 5-6 |
Breathing exercises for children of younger groups (2-3 years old) should be carried out in the form of a fun game. The participation of adults and educators is required.
Complex for children 4-5 years old
Preschoolers in the middle group of kindergarten are more independent and active. Breathing exercises for children over 4 years old may include the following tasks:
| Exercise | Target | Initial position | Instructions | Replays |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Listen to your breath | Learning to control rhythm and depth of breathing. | Comfortable position for the child. Sitting, lying down, standing. The muscles of the body are relaxed. | Breathe calmly and listen to yourself. We observe where the air stream goes, how the chest moves, etc. | 1-2 times |
| Balloon | Training the abdominal muscles, monitoring the filling of the lungs with air. | Lying on your back, arms extended along the body. Concentrating on the stomach. | Slowly, take a deep breath, watch how your stomach rises and falls. | 5-10 |
| Breathe through one nostril | Training the muscles of the respiratory apparatus. | Any convenient position of the body. The muscles are completely relaxed. | Open your nostrils to inhale and exhale alternately. Through one we inhale slowly, deeply, through the other we exhale. | 6 |
| tube | Strengthening the muscles of the nasopharynx and lungs. | Sitting, standing | We exhale as deeply as possible through the nose, while the stomach and ribs should be pulled towards the body. We stretch out our lips with a tube and sharply inhale as much air as possible. We hold our breath. Raise your head up and exhale through your nose. | 6 |
| Bubble | Strengthening the tone of the muscles of the lungs and nasopharynx. | standing | Raise your head to the IP position and exhale slowly through your nose. Inhale without lowering your head. Exhale with your head down and your nose down. | 4 |
| Hedgehog | Rhythmic shallow breathing training. | Standing. We turn our heads to the rhythm of the march. | With each turn of the head left and right, we take a short breath through our nose, breathe noisily, tensing the muscles of the nasopharynx. Exhale through the nose. | 6 |
Complex for children 6-7 years old
For this age and younger, breathing exercises for children using the Tolkachev method are suitable. You can start warming up with a complex for children 3-4 years old.
| Exercise | Target | Initial position | Instructions | Replays |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rocking chair | Sitting on a chair, palms resting on your knees. | We swing the body to the sides with slight inclinations. We inhale through the nose, and as we exhale we say: “F-r-o-o-oh.” | 6-8 | |
| Get the floor | Training the muscles of the respiratory system, development of the speech apparatus. | Standing. Hands forward, legs slightly apart to the sides. | Inhale through your nose and slowly bend, reaching your hands to the floor. While bending over, we say as we exhale: “Buck.” | 4 |
| Jumping | Control of rhythm and depth of breathing. | Standing, arms extended at your sides. | We jump up on both legs. Each jump is accompanied by the word "Ha". We try to breathe evenly. | We alternate 12-16 jumps with walking in place. Repeat 3-4 times. |
| Lost | Standing straight, hands folded near the mouth like a megaphone. | We take a slow breath, and as we exhale we say: “AU...”. | 8-10 | |
| Blow out the candle | Training the muscles of the speech apparatus. | standing | We inhale and hold our breath. We form our lips into a tube and exhale forcefully three times, blow out an imaginary candle, saying as we exhale: “Fu, Fu...”. | 4 |
Speech therapists and educators are competent specialists in working with children of different ages. They know how to weave breathing exercises into the fabric of classes in a preschool institution methodically correctly. Gymnastics is performed artistically, in the form of a game. Children continue to prevent diseases at an older age on their own.
In breathing exercises with children, not only the creative approach of an adult is important, but also an understanding of the essence of the processes taking place. Therefore, first a little theory.
The more actively we exhale, the more space inside the lungs we free up for inhalation. Without special training, the working volume of the lungs is very small. The working volume is the volume that is released during exhalation and filled during inhalation. As a rule, it makes up much less than half of the total volume of the lungs. The remaining part is filled with residual, “stagnant” air, which, without being renewed, becomes a favorable environment for the life of pathogenic bacteria. At least until the release of hormones or serious physical activity makes us breathe more actively.
By exhaling for a long time and actively, the child literally blows out the remaining air. With regular performance of such actions, the working volume of the lungs increases - congestion is eliminated, breathing better supplies the body with oxygen.
Feather
The exercise is simple and suitable for little ones. A small bird feather - for example, from a pillow - should be kept in the air for as long as possible. How? Simply by blowing on it.
Exercise options:
- Set up a table football game using balls rolled up from paper: a goal is scored by a ball blown out between two cubes.
Cut out autumn leaves from paper and blow them around the room, and in winter they can be snowflakes.
Hang paper butterflies on a thread and make them float by blowing on them.
Blow on the blades of a toy windmill.
You need to make sure that you inhale only through your nose. Exhale through the mouth. Show your child how to make a tube shape with his lips while exhaling. This position of the lips is the most effective not only because the air comes out of the mouth in a denser stream. The point is also that the orbicularis oris muscle is connected to the diaphragm - a flexible partition between the chest and abdominal cavities, which is also a muscle. Diaphragm training is an important part of breathing exercises. The difficulty is that it is not an arm or a leg that is easy and simple to move.
To train the diaphragm we need different workarounds. Tube lips are one of them. This tension causes the diaphragm to tense up. Therefore, it is also important that the inhalation occurs through the nose - during this time both the orbicularis oris muscle and the diaphragm will have time to relax, which will help prevent spasm of these muscles. Mouth breathing is used only during exercise. In normal life, you need to breathe through your nose.
Inflating a balloon is one of the modifications of the described exercise. But it’s more difficult, since the ball creates resistance, causing the child to strain more.
Hen
IP - standing, feet shoulder-width apart. When inhaling, the arms are spread as wide as possible to the sides, like wings. As you exhale, you should bend over (it’s better to bend your knees), lower your head and say: “Tah-tah-tah,” patting your hands on your knees. Repeat four to five times.
Bubbles
This exercise is based on training the diaphragm through manipulation of the lower part of the face, and is also well suited for very young children.
Inhaling through the nose, the child inflates his cheeks as much as he can, then presses his palms on his cheeks (or an adult does this for him), and the air spontaneously comes out through the mouth. The game turns out to be fun and funny. I recommend repeating no more than two or three times.
As the baby grows, it can be made more difficult - when the exhalation does not occur sharply due to pressure on the cheeks, but becomes smooth and slow. The child, as it were, bleeds out the air gradually through a slightly open mouth, which gives him the skill of controlling the respiratory processes. An additional bonus of this exercise is the improvement (by eliminating congestion) of various hard-to-reach areas of the face, right down to the maxillary sinuses. To achieve this effect, the pressure in the oral cavity must be large enough and be felt by the eardrums.
Wave
IP - lying on your back, arms extended along the body, legs more or less straight, relaxed. When inhaling, the child raises his straight arms up and moves them back, touching or almost touching the floor. With an exhalation, the hands return to their place along the opposite trajectory, while the child says: “Vni-i-i-z.” The effect of the exercise is based precisely on the movement of the hands and the coordination of this movement with the phases of breathing. You can repeat up to ten times.
This and the following exercise develop the so-called full breathing. It combines the upper, or subclavian, middle, or thoracic, and lower, or diaphragmatic. Full breathing gives the maximum depth of inhalation and exhalation, that is, the lungs fill as much as possible when inhaling and empty when exhaling. This ensures a maximum flow of oxygen into the blood and eliminates congestion in the lungs. Full breathing has the most beneficial effect on the cardiovascular, nervous, and digestive systems of the body. Please note that you need to perform the exercises at a calm pace, not too fast. The fuller the inhalation and exhalation, the longer they take.
Pump
IP - standing, hands on the belt, feet shoulder-width apart. When you inhale, you should sit down slightly, and when you exhale, you should rise up. With each next breath we sit down a little deeper, then rise again. It is enough to do three or four times.
Diver
Playing diver is training the respiratory system through the ability to hold your breath. The child takes two calm breaths and two calm exhalations through the nose, and with the third deep breath closes his mouth, pinches his nose with his fingers and squats until he wants to exhale.
You can interest your child in a story about treasures hidden at the bottom, or arrange a competition between children in the group. 
Watch
IP - standing, arms down, feet shoulder-width apart. Straight arms move back and forth, like the hands of a clock, and at the same time you should say: “Tick-tock.” The hand movements are performed quite intensively, the pace in this case is quite fast, and there is no need to specifically monitor breathing - breathing is voluntary. Repeat 10 times.
This is a basic breathing exercises complex for children. In the next issue we will look at exercises that are added as the child grows older.

Breathing exercises complexes
The purpose of this gymnastics: To teach children to breathe correctly through the nose, mouth, and to perform various exercises while breathing.
Complex No. 1
1.Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly.
I.p. – standing, sitting, lying down (it’s better to close your eyes). Take a slow breath in through your nose, pause (as many as you can), then exhale smoothly through your nose (5-10 times).
2. Breathe through one nostril.
I.p. – sitting, standing, the torso is straightened, but not tense. Close the right nostril with the index finger of the right hand. Take a quiet, long breath through your left nostril. Open the right nostril and close the left one with the index finger of the left hand, exhale quietly through the right nostril (3-6 times).
3. "Balloon"
I.p. – lying on your back, your torso is relaxed, your eyes are closed, your palms are on your stomach. Take a slow, smooth breath without any effort; the stomach slowly rises up and swells like a round ball. Exhale slowly; the stomach slowly tightens (4-10 times).
4. “Balloon” in the chest.
I.p. – lying down, sitting, standing. Place your hands on the lower part of the ribs and concentrate on them. Exhale slowly and evenly. Inhale slowly through your nose, your hands should feel the schedule of your chest.
As you exhale, the chest is again slowly pressed with both hands at the bottom of the ribs. The abdominal and shoulder girdle muscles remain motionless (6-10 times).
5. The “balloon” rises up.
I.p. – lying down, sitting, standing. Place your hands between your collarbones and concentrate on them and your shoulders. Inhale while calmly and smoothly raising and lowering your shoulders (4-6 times).
6. "Wind"
I.p. – lying, sitting, standing, the torso is relaxed. Take a full breath, invading your stomach and chest, hold your breath for 3-4 seconds; forcefully release the air through pursed lips with several abrupt exhalations.
7. “Rainbow. Give me a hug".
I.p. – standing or in motion. Take a full breath through your nose and spread your arms to the sides; hold your breath for 3-4 seconds, stretching your lips in a smile, pronounce the sound “s”, exhaling air and drawing in your stomach. Hands first forward, then in front of the chest, as if hugging the shoulders (3-4 times).
8. Repeat the exercise “Breathe quietly, calmly and smoothly” 3-5 times.
Complex No. 2
All exercises are performed standing or in motion.
1. “Breathe through one nostril” (see complex No. 1, with fewer repetitions).
2. "Hedgehog".
Turn your head left and right at the pace of movement. At the same time, with each turn, inhale through your nose, short, noisy, with tension in the muscles of the entire nasopharynx. Exhale softly, voluntarily, through half-open lips (4-8 times).
3. “Lips with a pipe”
Exhale completely through the nose, drawing in the stomach and intercostal muscles. Purse your lips into a “tube” and sharply draw in air. Make a swallowing movement (as if swallowing air). Pause for 2-5 seconds, then raise your head up and exhale air through your nose smoothly and slowly (4-6 times).
4. “Ears.”
Shaking your head left and right, take deep breaths. The shoulders remain motionless; when tilting the head, the ears should be as close to the shoulders as possible. The body does not turn. Exhale voluntarily (4-5 times).
5. “Blowing soap bubbles.”
When tilting your head to your chest, inhale through your nose, tensing the muscles of the nasopharynx. Raise your head up and calmly exhale air through your nose, as if blowing soap bubbles. Without lowering your head, inhale through your nose. Exhale calmly, through the nose with your head down (3-5 times).
6. “Tongue with a tube.”
The lips are folded into a “tube” as when pronouncing the sound “o”. Show your tongue and also fold it into a “tube”. Slowly drawing in air through the “tube” of the tongue, fill all the lungs with it, inflating the stomach and ribs of the chest.
When you finish inhaling, close your mouth. Slowly lower your head until your chin touches your chest. Pause 3-5 seconds.
Raise your head and calmly exhale air through your nose (4-8 times).
7. "Pump".
Bring your hands together in front of your chest, clenching your fists. Bend forward and down, and with each springy tilt take gusty breaths, as sharp and noisy as when inflating tires with a pump (5-7 springy bends and breaths). Exhale voluntarily (3-6 times).
Complication. Repeat the exercise 3 times, then bend back and forth (“large pendulum”), while inhaling and exhaling. When bending forward, inhale and pull your arms freely towards the floor, and when bending back, exhale and lift them to your shoulders (3-5 times).

- blow on one shoulder
- now onto something else
- and now on your stomach
- and now to the clouds (usual inhalation through the nose and long exhalation)

Breathing exercises complexes
Raising a healthy child is one of the most important tasks of a family and a preschool educational institution. Parents often have questions about health. What ways and means can a preschooler develop a conscious attitude towards his health?
Currently, there is an increase in the number of preschool children with various health conditions, retardation in physical development, and a decrease in the body’s resistance to harmful environmental factors, including infectious viral diseases. According to research, the proportion of frequently ill children in the first six years of life ranges from 20-25%, that is, every fourth to fifth child is often ill.
Such children overcome difficulties in mastering knowledge with greater effort compared to healthy ones. They cope with more significant psychophysiological costs in coping with the demands placed on them, stipulated by the living and upbringing conditions in a preschool institution.
The problem of raising a healthy child facing us has been and remains the most pressing, and in connection with this there is a need to search for effective ways to strengthen the child’s health, correct deficiencies in physical development, prevent diseases and increase physical activity.
Along with generally accepted measures, breathing exercises are an effective preventive measure for reducing the incidence of episodic illness in children.
Breathing exercises help saturate every cell of the body with oxygen. The ability to control breathing contributes to the ability to control oneself.
In addition, proper breathing stimulates the functioning of the heart, brain and nervous system, relieves a person from many diseases, improves digestion (before food is digested and absorbed, it must absorb oxygen from the blood and oxidize).
Exhaling slowly helps you relax, calm down, and cope with anxiety and irritability.
Breathing exercises develop the child’s still imperfect respiratory system, strengthen the body’s defenses and have a number of advantages. It is based on nasal breathing. It is no coincidence that yogis warn: if children do not breathe through their nose, they will not receive enough mental development, because... nasal breathing stimulates the nerve endings of all organs located in the nasopharynx. And our task is to learn and teach children to breathe correctly
We recommend using physical exercises aimed at preventing colds and improving the functions of the upper respiratory tract in all groups.
Breathing exercises can be performed during morning exercises, exercises after waking up, or while walking.
At first, breathing exercises seem to be one of the most difficult for children. And it is all the more important to help children by turning boring exercises into a fun game.
The basis of respiratory gymnastics consists of exercises with prolonged and enhanced exhalation. This can be achieved by pronouncing vowel sounds (a-a-a, u-u-u, o-o-o), hissing consonants (sh, zh) and a combination of sounds (ah, oh, uh). It is recommended to carry out these breathing exercises in a playful way (“a bee is buzzing”, “a steamer is humming”, “train wheels are knocking”, etc.). It is necessary to gradually increase the load on children by increasing the number of repetitions and complicating the exercises.
6 sets of classes are offered. To increase children's interest in them, a short poem has been selected for each exercise.

When doing breathing exercises, it is important to ensure that the child does not have symptoms of hyperventilation (rapid breathing, sudden change in complexion, trembling of the hands, tingling and numbness in the arms and legs).
If your head starts to feel dizzy, put your palms together (“like a ladle”), bring them close to your face and breathe deeply into them several times (2-3 times).
After this, breathing exercises can be continued.
Thus, the use of breathing exercises, in complexes of morning exercises, physical education and exercises, helps prevent the occurrence of colds, increase overall vitality, strengthen the psychophysical health of children, and therefore ensure the full and harmonious development of preschool children.
