Russian folk game "Burners. Outdoor games for the middle group Game burn burn clearly so as not to go out

Burners

(There are other names for this game: “Burn brightly”, “Ogaryshi”, “Run”, “Separation”, etc.)

This game is very ancient, apparently still of common Slavic origin, since it is known to almost all Slavs as their original folk game.

For several centuries, the game "Burners" was one of the most common and favorite games of the Russian people. It has survived in many places to this day. This game was often and vividly portrayed in Russian art, especially in literature (A. S. Pushkin, L. N. Tolstoy and others).

They play on a lawn, a platform with a length of at least 20-30 m (15-25 or more teenagers or boys and girls).

Description. The participants, divided into pairs (usually in a pair - a boy with a girl or a boy with a girl), join hands. Pairs become one after another a string (column). Ahead, 3-5 m from the first pair, there is a “burner” (leader). Everyone speaks in unison:

burn, burn bright so that it doesn't go out. Look at the sky, the birds are flying, the bells are ringing.

The "burner" stands with his back to the rest of the players. Starting with the words "look at the sky", he looks up. At this time, the last pair separates their hands, and one player goes to the right, the other to the left along the forward column. Having almost caught up with the "burner" (Fig. 1), they wait for the last word "ring" and after it they rush to run forward past the "burner". He chases after any of them and tries to catch (it is enough to touch them with his hand) before they join hands again. Whoever the "burner" catches, with that becomes a couple ahead of the whole string. And the player who is left alone drives. If the "burner" did not catch anyone, he "burns" again - he catches the next pair.

Rules.

1. The "burner" has no right to look back and peep which pair is going to run past him. Otherwise, the couple prepared to run can change the queue with another couple or places with each other.
2. No one should start running before the last word "ringing" is spoken.
3. The "burner" can burn the runners only until they join hands.

Game types. If young people play, then the players often agree that the “burner” should not chase any of the runners, but always the guy and, having caught up with him, can pair up with the girl: the one who is caught goes to “burn”. Fifteen to twenty meters ahead of the “burner”, a place is marked in advance, to which the running couple should not join hands again.

If there are a lot of players, you can stand in pairs in two columns (one opposite the other) at a distance of 8-15 m. 1-2 “burners” stand in front of the columns. On a signal, 1-2 pairs run at the same time and try to connect with their pair, and the "burners" catch any of the running ones. This kind of game is called "double burners". Most often, this game is played at holidays and festivities, when a lot of people gather.

Game: "Grandmas" ("Burners")

Galina Prusova
Russian folk game "Burners"

Most of the old children's games are collective. This is due to the fact that the traditional Russian the family had many children. Children in the community were brought up together, spent a lot of time with their peers. Each the game had its own deep hidden meaning, being ritual and symbolizing the forces of nature.

« Burners» - one of the most popular, but, unfortunately, forgotten Russian vintage fun. In the 19th century, youth aged 16-18 participated in it. During the game, young people looked at each other, showed sympathy, showed signs of attention. Later the game became purely child's play. It is exciting for children 5 - 7 years of age.

Purpose of the game: rally the team; to develop in children the ability to concentrate attention, speed and dexterity; build communication skills.

Game progress

An odd number of participants gathers, optimally 7-13 people. The more kids, the merrier.

Everyone in unison pronounces any counting rhyme, on whom the last word is pronounced - he and the driver - « Burner» (in the old days, the word to drive was also called the word toil).

The rest form pairs and hold hands. In ancient times, when young people participated in the game, the guy paired up with the girl. Now this rule is not respected.

Pairs stand one after another in a row-column. « Burner» turns away from other children. Now you need to draw a line. It should be located 5-10 meters from the leader. The younger the age children playing, the shorter the distance from the leading « burners» up to the line.

All participants, holding hands in pairs, sing in unison song:

"Burn, burn bright,

To not fade away.

Stay at the bottom

Look at the field

There are trumpeters

Yes, they eat kalachi.

Look at the sky:

The stars are burning

The cranes are screaming.

One, two, don't miss

Run like fire!"

The last line of the song is a signal for the active action of children from the extreme pair. They separate their hands and quickly run to the cherished line. The leader must catch the hand of one of the pair. If he succeeds, he pairs up with those whom he did not catch up with. The trapped child becomes « burner» . If it was not possible to catch up with anyone, then the leader does not change. Pair "escaped" players are united behind the line, then stands at the beginning of the general column. If a « burner» not fast and not agile, he remains in the role of leader for a long time, and the others cheer him up. But it would be advisable if the driver is changed after three pairs not caught, again paying off according to the counting rhyme.

AT « burner» children can play long enough. Collective the game- it is not only fun and funny, but instructive. Such games are of great benefit both to the health of children and their emotional mood.
