Physical activity is one of the important parts of kindergarten children's life education, and self-made sports equipment has always been an important part of physical education teaching and research activities in our park. Equipment is an indispensable material in children's sports activities. Sports equipment can stimulate children's desire and interest to participate in sports activities and produce corresponding actions. Now our kindergarten has a wide range of sports toys, including balls, hula hoops and other ready-made instruments. Large outdoor equipment includes slides, balance beams, seesaws, etc. Although these toys attract the participation of many children, they are all toys that are often played. In group activities, there are often more people and less equipment, which is far from meeting the needs of children. This requires us to make some sports equipment. The Regulations on Kindergarten Work also clearly points out: "Kindergartens should adapt to local conditions, use local materials and make their own teaching toys." According to the characteristics of children's age, teachers, children and parents make it together, make full use of the surrounding discarded items, and make it according to children's characteristics and existing conditions. The purpose is to develop children's body and basic movements, so that children can experience the happiness brought by self-made sports equipment in the process of exploring equipment play.
First of all, discuss the content of self-made sports equipment:
As the saying goes, "two heads are better than one", it is difficult for teachers in small research groups to collect so many instruments with different methods. So our teachers communicate with each other, borrow books and materials, and choose some self-made, durable and safe instruments. Children in small classes are young, with poor physical and muscle development and weak abilities in all aspects. They should choose something simple and safe, made of cloth and sponge, such as "turtles send food" and "rabbits send radishes". Middle-class self-made musical instruments need certain skills, such as "golf" and "barbell"; Children in large classes are well developed in all aspects, so they can choose self-made equipment with high motor skills and high exercise intensity, such as "sea, land and air" and "maze" with high difficulty coefficient. In short, in the process of developing sports self-made equipment, each class chooses a self-made equipment according to the content selected by the group leader, and at the same time, it uses the resources of parents and children to bring some waste materials, which not only improves the environmental awareness of parents and children, but also encourages children to experience more fun in outdoor activities.

Second, skillfully use self-made sports equipment to stimulate children's happy sports awareness.
The effective application of 1 in morning activities;
Cultivating children's interest in sports activities is an important goal of kindergarten sports activities, and the development of self-made sports equipment activities has greatly improved children's interest. Children are particularly interested in the equipment they personally participate in, and their enthusiasm for activities is particularly high. Therefore, we require all classes to take "one thing and more play" as the guiding ideology in morning exercises, organize teachers to carry out activities, and form a way in which scattered activities are the main activities, supplemented by collective activities, and children actively explore learning. Let children explore and discover various ways of playing various musical instruments, let teachers participate and encourage them to enjoy the happiness brought by homemade musical instruments in happy activities. In the activity, children can choose their friends voluntarily, whether it is "kicking sandbags or flying saucers" played by one person or "hoop" or "bowling" played by many people, it is a free combination activity in the natural state. For example, a big tank in a big class, the teacher prepares a small tank for each child, and the teacher encourages the children to come up with their own ways to play tanks. After playing for a while, some children are not so interested. Teachers can inspire children to think: "How can you drive except standing?" "How do you operate the tanks you saw on TV?" Teachers use language to stimulate children's desire to explore various ways of playing.
2. Effective application in collective teaching activities:
In morning exercises, after children have a preliminary perceptual knowledge of a musical instrument, teachers can increase the activity and improve the difficulty by carefully designing actions and creating situations in collective teaching activities, so that children can play their initiative well in this challenging activity atmosphere and truly experience the happiness brought by sports. For example, in the "Dragon Dance" game of the big class, children are required to treat the paper box as Jackie Chan's body, and each person uses a small bamboo stick as the support of dragon dance, and dances the box through hydrangeas in different directions; Another example is the "plum blossom pile" activity of the middle class. The teacher chooses Lulu bottles as the material, and sticks four or five together with adhesive tape to make a plum blossom pile, so that children with different abilities can exercise in a balanced way according to their actual abilities, so that children with different abilities can keep their interest in sports activities in constant challenges.
Third, skillfully manage self-made sports equipment:
Adequate sports equipment is an important prerequisite for children to carry out activities, and reasonable routines are the key to ensure children to carry out sports activities. We put the self-made sports equipment in the outdoor equipment cabinet of the kindergarten, put it in a special plastic basket, and assign a special person to take care of it. Each class takes turns to enjoy it as needed. In the usual outdoor activities, educate children to handle with care and take good care of equipment, so that everyone can take care of it with Qi Xin.
In short, children's self-made sports equipment can create good sports conditions for children at the lowest cost, give full play to the wisdom of parents, teachers and children, turn waste into treasure, effectively promote the healthy development of children, and cultivate children's awareness of protecting the environment and saving resources.
