For the full development of the child, parents strive to show him the world of art: theater, ballet, musicals. Now there are many opportunities for this. But along with the classical theater, where the performance is watched by young spectators from their seats, there is also the opportunity to go to interactive performance where you can take part in the action yourself.
What gives the child such an interactive performance:
Understandable stories. The performances are based on fairy tales with the participation of animals. Often these are interesting sketches that introduce children to the natural world, the habits of birds and animals.
Introduction to music. Musicians play live instruments. The child can observe how the violinist moves the bow, what sounds arise at the same time. He correlates the sounds of music and the instrument, learns to understand its mood. Classical music often coexists with the melodies of the peoples of the whole world.
Immersion in a fairy tale After all, the fairy tale takes place nearby, you can interact with the heroes of the fairy tale - help, voice, etc. You can go through all the tests with them. Immersion in this Magic world fairy tales will help and finger and gesture games. To turn into a hero of a fairy tale, sometimes you only need a light scarf or a rattle, everything else will be done by children's imagination.
Physical activity.Everyone knows how difficult it is sometimes for a healthy child to sit still, and at the interactive performance there is an opportunity to jump and dance. And there these actions are not prohibited, but are woven into the performance itself. Well, everyone likes to spin around with a beautiful umbrella.
Family atmosphere. Parents are present at the performance, which always serves as an invisible support for the child in a new place, and if mom and dad are also involved, then the child has a great example of how to behave in public, how to interact with other people. Such performances are intimate, for a small number of people, the child will not be shocked by the crowd, but will be able to join the company and have fun.
It is difficult for kids in a regular theater to sit still. A dark room, a deep armchair, from where you can't see anything, and your favorite characters are high on the stage - you can't reach out, you can't talk ... How about an interactive theater? One where you can freely move around the hall, get acquainted with the characters of fairy tales, touch them and take an active part in what is happening. We have compiled our list of interactive theaters for kids from 1 to 3 years old.

- Teremok is a fairy tale for the smallest children about how animals lived in the same house, and a cunning fox and a stupid, gullible wolf tried to destroy it. And in that house lived: a little mouse, a frog, a runaway bunny and a kind hedgehog. The tale tells about what friendship is and how it helps to resist evil. The performance is made in the style of popular prints..
- Feedback from a psychologist: It is very remarkable that each performance of the "Poteshki" theater is made in its own style. As for "Teremok", these are popular prints. Russian folklore sounds in everything, starting from the very beginning - the invocation of spring, and further - musical arrangement, dance numbers. In my opinion, the inculcation of culture should not be postponed until older age, it should be done imperceptibly, unobtrusively from the earliest years.
Geese Swans 2+
