“The importance of fairy tales in human life”
In every fairy tale we read, we can find a complete list of human problems, as well as ways and means of solving them. The subconscious choice of a fairy tale reflects the problems of personal moments in a person’s life, their aspirations and beliefs. The famous American psychologist Eric Berne argued back in the mid-twentieth century that with the help of fairy tales it is even possible to program a child’s future.
Fairy tales are not as simple as they seem at first glance - they are like a multi-layered cake. In childhood, we see the first layer, it is the most understandable, and with age, the deeper meaning of the embedded plan in the fairy tale is revealed to us. And the shorter the fairy tale, the greater the volume of information embedded in it. And in this case, parents need fairy tales no less than their children.
As an example, I propose to analyze the fairy tale “Kolobok”. Everyone, you remember well how the bun runs away from home to see the world. Of course, he has a great sense of adventure. According to characterological characteristics, he is energetic, sociable, quite active, agile, lively, has a good character and a boundless desire to learn something interesting and unknown. Temperament type - rather sanguine.
On his way to unknown adventures, he meets several characters who become a hindrance to him. But Kolobok knows how to negotiate with everyone - he was able to convince even the most negative hero from a fairy tale to let him go. Over time, already confident in himself, as a mature personality, the traveler loses his vigilance, his self-confidence and insolence suppresses such psychological processes as attentiveness and observation - and, with the help of deception, he is eaten by the Fox.
This fairy tale plot is found in fairy tales of many peoples of the world. It is instructive because it carries the wisdom of the people, which is passed down through generations from ancestors to future descendants.
What lessons can be learned from this fairy tale and what can a child be taught by telling it:
1) Do not lose your sense of self-control. You can always find a way out of the situation and confront the one who insults you: call your friends for help, show cunning. After all, Kolobok could have been eaten by the Hare if our hero had not cheated: “Come on, I’ll sing you a song!” Or, just run away - that’s what Kolobok did every time, singing a song.
2) Do not trust the first person you meet. In life you meet different people, both friendly and vice versa. Just in case, you always need to be ready for anything, because bad people do not always directly and openly make it clear: “I will eat you!” Most, in relation to you, can act like the cunning Fox, lulling your vigilance with flattery and skillfully played kindness; Therefore, you should be very careful here to guess people's intentions.
3) Choose the right path in life. You should talk about this with your child at the very end. After all, Kolobok was baked for a corresponding purpose, Grandfather and Grandmother pinned their hopes on it, and our naughty hero ruined the lives of both himself and them. Each person has his own abilities, this is a sign of the purpose of everyone in this world. According to these signs and the vocation of the soul, people, as a rule, try to choose a profession, type of activity, occupation. And, of course, having made the right choice of profession, a person will be able to realize his talents in life, and with his successes bring great benefit to himself, his family and society, and also receive pleasure from his professional activities. Self-assertion.
As a result:
Don't rush to refuse. When you are asked to “scrape the bottom of the barrel,” and you know that there is nothing there, scratch it anyway. Grandmother had enough flour for Kolobok...
Do not leave children unattended. After all, Kolobok is none other than a baby who, as soon as Grandma turned away, jumped off the windowsill and went into the forest!
Don't forget about your childhood. Why did the main character of the fairy tale decide to go on an adventure so recklessly? Probably because he felt rather sad lying on the windowsill alone. Therefore, you should not rush to scold your child for disobedience, but rather remember how you yourself once in childhood wanted to feel “adult and independent,” saying, at the mother’s request to help: “I myself!”
Don't try to replace reading a fairy tale with watching cartoons. Even when you're busy, find time to read with your family or before bed. 15 minutes a day is not enough for a lively, emotional display of a fairy tale by you for your child, but it is very important for its psychological development.
Before reading an unfamiliar fairy tale to your son or daughter, skim through it quickly. In modern interpretations you can find, for example: “... and tore him into a thousand small pieces.” This is too much. Therefore, in this case, you can replace this fairy tale with another, or replace some of the actions of the main characters with softer ones that do not reflect manifestations of aggression and various negativism, because the child may form the opinion that only evil and cruelty can be strong and reasonable.
Children should know and understand that in life there is, in addition to the “external”, an “internal” side (the main educational meaning of the fairy tale). Talk about this with your child, choosing the moment subtly and carefully. Purely for educational purposes, raising the child to what the right thing to do in such situations. And even better, if the child has recently done something wrong, then choose an appropriate fairy tale according to this situation, highlighting the instructive and educational moment.

The meaning of fairy tales in human life
A child enters the magical world of fairy tales at a very early age. Children become interested in fairy tales by the age of two. If a child lives in a loving and caring family, then he is prepared for this from infancy. First - lullabies, then - nurseries, poems and jokes. Listening to them, the baby, as if taking steps, comes to a fairy tale and stays with it for the rest of his life. His acquaintance with the world of literature, with the world of human relationships and with the entire surrounding world in general begins with a children's fairy tale. You ask: “Why a fairy tale? Isn’t it more logical to show children the world as it is, telling them real, instructive stories “from life”? Surprisingly, a fairy tale is as necessary a stage in a child’s mental development as, say, a game. And no loving parent can stop their child from playing.
The reality of a fairy tale life
According to psychologists, familiarity with a fairy tale helps a child understand the surrounding reality. Any fairy tale is a story about relationships between people. The language of fairy tales is understandable to children. He does not yet know how to think logically, and the fairy tale does not bother the child with serious logical reasoning. The child does not like instructions, and the fairy tale does not teach him directly. A children's fairy tale offers the child images that are very interesting to him, and vital information is absorbed on its own, imperceptibly. Moreover, by becoming familiar with a fairy tale, the child acquires a completely new type of mental activity for himself - the ability to mentally act in imaginary circumstances, and this skill is the basis for any creative activity. Fairy tales for children tell a ready-made fantastic story, but at the same time leave room for imagination.
Kindness has a face
Through a fairy tale, it is easiest to explain to a child the first and main concepts of morality: what is “good” and what is “bad.” Fairy tale characters are always either good or bad. This is very important for determining the child’s sympathies, for distinguishing between good and evil. The child identifies himself with a positive hero. Thus, a fairy tale instills goodness in children. Moral concepts, vividly presented in the images of heroes, are reinforced in real life and relationships with loved ones. After all, if villains in fairy tales are always punished, then the only way to avoid punishment is not to be a villain. As the cartoon fairy-tale hero cat Leopold sang: “If you are kind, then it’s always easy, but when it’s the other way around, it’s difficult.” The concept of goodness appears in a fairy tale not in the form of laws and rules, but in the form of images of strong and brave heroes, knights, princes, in the form of a good sorceress or fairy, always ready to help.
Education of feelings
Nowadays, when prestigious schools and even kindergartens require exams, more attention is paid to the development of one area - the intellectual development of the child. Parents begin to train the child very early, essentially forcing him to engage in intellectual efforts for which he is often not ready, either physically or mentally. Whereas for the full mental development of a preschool child, the most important thing is the nutrition of his emotional sphere and the development of feelings. A children's fairy tale is one of the most accessible means for developing a child's emotions, which has been used by teachers and parents at all times. No knowledge, even super-needed, should outstrip the child’s moral development!
Every age has its own fairy tale
When choosing a children's fairy tale for your baby, be sure to take into account the peculiarities of his mental development. It is necessary to know at what age this fairy tale will be useful to the child. At two years old, a child has already developed the ability to remember his own actions with objects and the simplest actions of fairy-tale characters. This is the age when children really like fairy tales about animals. Children with pleasure, following adults, imitate the movements and sounds made by fairy-tale animals and their actions with various objects. In fairy tales, children notice and love repeating plot turns. This technique is well known to us from such children's fairy tales as “Turnip”, “Teremok”, “Kolobok”. Such an organization of the “storyteller’s” speech helps a small child remember the plot and “get comfortable” with it. Psychologists note that for a better understanding of a fairy tale, children need to rely not only on a verbal description, but also on an image. The visual image serves as the main support for tracking events. Such supports can be good illustrations in books, or an action acted out by parents based on a fairy tale with the help of dolls.
Between two and five years The child’s ability to visualize and fantasize begins to develop. In other words, the child’s brain is ready to perceive fairy tales. However, it is precisely this achievement of the child’s mental development that can cause the emergence of fears associated with the characters of fairy tales. Parents need to pay attention to the characters their child loves and dislikes, which will help them timely identify the child’s psychological problem, if it exists, and correct his mental development in time. The perception of a fairy tale should help increase the child’s self-confidence in his future, and not frighten him.
Between five and seven years Children can read any fairy tales whose plot is interesting to the child. Of course, this work should develop all aspects of the child’s personality: thinking, imagination, emotions, behavior. Now he can come up with something that doesn’t actually exist, being carried away in his fantasies into the desired reality. From the age of five, a child should already be able to retell famous fairy tales. If a child has difficulty retelling a fairy tale, if he forgets the plot of a fairy tale story that has been read to him many times, understands the relationships of characters in a simplified way, or has great difficulty choosing words, then this may indicate a delay in the child’s mental development. You should immediately consult a psychologist and speech therapist.
Even if a child has already learned to read, there is no need to interrupt the tradition of reading and telling fairy tales out loud. At any time, family readings of fairy tales give a lot to both children and adults, helping them to become closer in soul. It is known that children grow up unnoticed, which is why a fairy tale told specifically to a child is so important. A simple children's fairy tale contains everything that is most necessary, the most important thing in life, alive, like life itself.
The role of children's fairy tales in raising children cannot be overlooked. The child, imagining the images, learns to understand the inner world of the characters, empathize with them and believe in the forces of good. The role of children's fairy tales is not limited to just a pleasant pastime. Fairy tales can be seen as a way to relieve anxiety in a child. With the help of fairy tales, you can help overcome the negative aspects of your developing personality.
Children's fairy tales expand the baby's vocabulary, help to build a dialogue correctly, develop coherent logical speech, and develop the ability to ask questions. If you read fairy tales with good diction, clearly pronouncing all the sounds, then you will do without visits to a speech therapist. A fairy tale should also promote communication.
Fairy tales contain centuries-old folk wisdom. Very often, fairy tales are accused of being terribly realistic, but the cruel actions that an adult sees are perceived figuratively by a child. If a child has repeatedly seen scenes of violence on TV, then he will not be able to perceive it figuratively in fairy tales. It is necessary to explain to the child that bad things must perish, then it will be easier for him to cope with life’s difficulties. And although life will make its own adjustments, nothing will be lost in the subconscious.
In fairy tales, good always wins - this is very important in raising children on fairy tales. Your attitude towards them is also important. If you also feel that this is a different, fairy-tale world, then tell it in a more interesting way. Books with pictures make it difficult to listen to fairy tales: after all, the artist sees everything differently than your child. Be sure to read the final phrase, this will separate the tales from each other. The same fairy tale can be read to a child many times, this will help him understand its meaning. When the child understands the essence of what he read, it will become uninteresting to him, since everyone can find in a fairy tale something that is understandable and close to him. Through a fairy tale, you can not only instill in a child a love of reading, but it is easier for him to understand what is “good” and what is “bad,” since the child imagines himself as a positive hero.
Thus, a fairy tale is one of the most accessible means for the full development of a child.
Teacher-psychologist N.A. Shcheglova
A fairy tale is a clever miracle created by the artistic genius of the people. M. Gorky wrote about the significance of fairy tales in his life: “...Fairy tales opened up before me a window into another life, where some free, fearless force existed and, dreaming of a better life, acted.” This force was the people themselves.
A fairy tale plays a very important role in a child’s life. The fairy tale has a great influence on the spiritual, moral, labor, aesthetic, mental education of children, norms of behavior in society and attitude towards life around them. With the help of fairy tales, accumulated knowledge and social experience are passed on from one generation to another; fairy tales reflect people's ideas about good and evil, about the beautiful and the ugly. Folk tales have always been accessible, interesting and understandable to children; their plot and the actions of fairy-tale characters make the child think, reason, they help him understand his own actions, and teach him life wisdom. A fairy tale in its various manifestations always strives to embody the ideal of human life, human actions and behavior. In the fairy tale there are calls for wisdom, for activity, for true humanity, for sincere feelings and good deeds. In addition, fairy tales broaden a person’s horizons, awaken interest in the life and creativity of peoples, and form a humane attitude towards nature and all the inhabitants of our Earth. Fairy tales develop imagination, thinking, attention and memory. A fairy tale plays a very important role in the development of a child’s emotional qualities, and these, in turn, influence the formation of the child’s moral assessments. Childhood impressions will remain in the child’s mind for a very long time, and at the same time they influence the behavior and mood of an adult. Children do not forget those readings and discussions of fairy tales that they had with their mother or grandmother in the evening hours together.
Russian folk tales play a big role in developing children's ear for music, taste for poetry, and love for nature and their native land. They arose in time immemorial. Russian folk tales are the most popular and most beloved genre by children. Everything that happens in these fairy tales is fantastic and wonderful in its purpose: the heroes of these fairy tales, getting from one dangerous situation to another, save their friends, punish their enemies - they fight and fight to the death.
A fairy tale activates the imagination. Thanks to it, the child’s consciousness is not only enriched with new knowledge and ideas, the main thing arises - a new attitude towards people, events and phenomena.
A distinctive feature of many fairy tales is the element of transformation. It can take the form of the hero’s embodiment in another person, animal or object. It is important that in the process of such transformations the hero, remaining himself, acquires additional qualities: he can dive to the bottom of the sea, soar into the skies like a falcon, prowl through a dense forest like a gray wolf, etc. It is in fairy tales that a child masters the ability to “get used to the world of another person.” This will be very useful to him in later life.
Thanks to empathy and sympathy for another person, the ground is created for tolerance, acceptance, pity and love for him. This is how the fear of insecurity and loneliness is overcome.
The motif of the unity of man and nature plays a special role in fairy tales. Coming to us from time immemorial, the fairy tale reflects the sense of community with nature inherent in people of those ancient times. Therefore, nature in fairy tales often sympathizes with the heroes, protecting and comforting them (an evil witch drowned Alyonushka in a pond, no one noticed, only the flowers began to wither in the garden, the trees began to dry out, and the grasses began to fade). From this merging with nature, love and pity for all living things is born: plants, animals, people.
Reading fairy tales and playing out fairy tale plots can be considered as a kind of therapy. As a result, the child not only gains new knowledge and becomes familiar with the culture of different nations, but also develops his imagination and learns to overcome his insecurities.
Fairy tales are an excellent material for stimulating children's imagination and developing attention.
Most fairy tales express the eternal search for happiness. All the exploits of heroes, the miraculous transformations of heroes and the activity of magical assistants are only necessary conditions for achieving it. Only those who do not stop at any difficulties find happiness. The very construction of the fairy tale - an expressive opposition of good and evil, images that are understandable in its essence, the dynamics of events that are understandable to a child, the results of various characteristic actions, multiple repetitions - this makes the fairy tale interesting and incredibly exciting for children.
My teaching experience has shown that students love and know fairy tales. In my activities, I implement various artistic programs: “Folklore Theater”, “Artistic Word”, “On the Steps of Theater Creativity”. The programs provide interdisciplinary connections with music, literature, and folklore. I introduce my students to fairy tales processed by the famous fairy tale publishers A.N. Afanasyev, the great teacher K.D. Ushinsky, L.N. Tolstoy, as well as the Soviet writer A.N. Tolstoy. I try to regularly conduct various games, quizzes, dramatizations, impromptu theaters based on fairy tales ("Teremok", "Kolobok", "Turnip", "Geese - Swans", etc.) The children participate in theatrical productions of fairy tales; they compose fairy tales about nature, animals, and musical instruments. Children love to participate in competitions and festivals at the regional and regional levels, in various All-Russian creative distance competitions, quizzes, and Olympiads. Most recently, we took part in the online quiz "New Year's Tale" (Educational portal "Red Cat" Center for Further Education named after Ya. A. Komensky). 13 people (students of grades 2 - 6) took part in the remote event. All the guys received diplomas as winners, taking 1st and 2nd places.
Every person has their own path from birth. Even twins often have very different destinies. Why does this happen? Of course, there can be no clear answer to this question. Some people think that everything depends on the planet under whose banner you were born, others on the day or even hour of birth, and others have never thought about it at all.
By and large, fate is a kind of scenario by which we live. It begins to form at the age of 6-7 years. This is the age at which we begin to become more familiar and aware of fairy tales. The behavior and actions of fairy-tale characters can influence our lives. Doesn't sound entirely plausible? For a moment, imagine yourself as a little child. You are about to come into this world. It is completely new and unknown to you. You are so small, and he is so huge. You still can’t know a lot of things, but you know the fairy tales that your mom, dad, or grandma read to you every evening. Delving into a fairy tale, you choose the best roles for yourself, with the help of which you will later create the scenario of your life - this is how a fairy tale influences your destiny. The scenario may be different, but there are mechanisms for its formation. These are mainly external factors, plus the child’s decisions on an emotional level. External factors can be in the person of parents or teachers, as well as reinforced by cartoons and fairy tales. Some repeat the fate of their parents, others go their own way. Basically life's journey
is created by the unconscious actions of parents: intonation while reading a fairy tale, emphasis on certain events, statements, attitude towards certain characters. Sometimes parents, in this way, help their children build their own destiny. But in any case, this choice occurs in childhood, filled with fairy tales, fairy-tale characters, their actions and characters.
What role does a fairy tale play in a child’s life? Here it is worth mentioning the psychological tools of the influence of fairy tales on the development of a child:
Identification mechanism;
Teaching moral standards of behavior;
Solving a child’s personal problems is an example of their non-uniqueness;
Gaining new experience from a fairy tale;
Elimination of psycho-emotional stress;
Solving age problems with the help of a fairy tale.
The role of fairy tales in human life is of great importance. Favorite fairy tale can set
the course of our lives, when we compare ourselves with the hero and repeat his actions in life. Growing up, we close ourselves off from childhood and already in adulthood we perform the same actions and deeds as our favorite fairy-tale character. Often we do not realize that a fairy tale is a model for building our lives, and it is it that lays down our destiny. We identify ourselves with our favorite heroes. If you remember what fairy tales were read to you as a child, you should know that they come with both positive programs and vice versa. It is important that you can choose what to read to your children. Make better choices: read about kindness, success and mutual help. Be sure to highlight the positive characters. Then you will program your baby for a happy and successful life.

Every person's childhood is associated with fairy tales. The fairy tale originates from the depths of centuries - the time when oral folk art existed.
Oral folk art is considered an inexhaustible source for moral, patriotic, labor, and aesthetic education. For many Russian writers and poets, fairy tales have been a source of creativity, love for their people, for the environment, and a sense of the mystery and beauty of nature. Everyone knows what an influence Arina Rodionovna had, who opened the world of folk songs and fairy tales to little Sasha. Pushkin wrote about the inimitable charm of evenings filled with mysterious images of nanny’s fairy tales in the poem “Dream”
Fairy tales were a kind of teaching and healing tool, a means of folk psychiatry long before psychotherapy received its status. Fairy tales and parables show in figurative form how a person can help himself overcome various adversities and difficulties, make his life fulfilling, while remaining himself.
Fairy tales have a great influence on the formation of a person’s personality.
Fairy tale heroes go through trials. Using the example of fairy tale heroes, the reader develops such personality traits as courage, willpower, the ability to understand another person, etc. A fairy tale always has a good ending, because you need to believe in good things, in magic. “A fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it, a lesson for good fellows.”
The role of fairy tales in human life.
Writer Viktor Krotov gives the following definition of a fairy tale: “A fairy tale is an honest invention, an honest fiction. The surprising thing is that this does not reduce its ability to reflect life, but rather increases it.” Indeed, the fairy tale captivates with its richness of fiction, its images, and the amazing interweaving of the fantastic and the real. Heroes of fairy tales fly on carpet-planes, drain swamps in one night, build palaces, defeat monsters and at the same time are no different from ordinary people. This is an amazing combination of truth and fiction.
All fairy tales teach good things. In any, even the most terrible fairy-tale world, there is a hero who, showing extraordinary strength, courage and endurance, fights with the most incredible monsters. At the same time, he performs his heroic deeds, usually protecting or saving someone. Various creatures and objects help him. Wise old men, old women, fantastic creatures, and heroes act as assistants to the positive hero in fairy tales. The assistants of positive heroes in fairy tales are animals, beasts, and birds: the kind “Sivka-burka”, “duck with the golden egg”, “wonderful chicken”, etc. Or even inanimate objects: a self-assembled tablecloth, walking boots , living or dead water. These beings or objects respond with kindness to kindness shown to them.
Whether a person is small or big, he must navigate life. But before a person learns to navigate in external life, it is important for him to navigate in internal life, that is, I want to talk about the formation of a person’s personality. A fairy tale works on internal orientation. The world of fairy tales can be called a masquerade. William Shakespeare once said: “A fairy tale gives us the opportunity to try on a variety of masks. Trying on a fairytale mask, we feel that this particular mask, this character is important to us. This is how we become acquainted with some living being in our soul, related to this character.” In our inner world, as in the fairy-tale world, there live Courage and Cowardice, Greed and Generosity, Pettiness and Generosity, Faith and Rationalism, and many other characters. Fairytale play teaches us to notice them as fairy tales and as internal characters, helps us get comfortable among them and manage with them. A fairy tale helps us choose our ideal and hold on to it - at least internally. But without internal loyalty to the ideal, external service to it is impossible.
People of all ages love to read fairy tales. The semantic shades of fairy tales that are preferred at one age or another differ. For example, fairy tales for little ones. In them, the little listener comprehends the structure of the surrounding world from simple to more complex - through comparisons and relationships. In the fairy tale “The Three Bears,” the relationship between the size of an object and the age of the characters is clearly described, and that what suits Mashenka is something that corresponds to her age—Mishutka’s accessories; in "Turnip" - the order of the characters is "from great to small." In these tales the structure of the intellect is created.
There are many fairy tales about relationships with others: about love, friendship, mutual assistance, cruelty, selfishness, deceit, etc. For example, “Geese are swans,” “The Frog Princess,” etc.
A 10-14 year old person, reading fairy tales, through the prism of imagination, tries to determine his place and his values in real life. Adventure tales are interesting at this age: “Pippi Longstocking”,
"Adventures of Electronics", "Harry Potter", etc.
Fantasy, adventure, detective stories are fairy tales for adults. The period of faith in miracles is replaced by a realistic perception of reality. Some adults relax while reading fairy tales; for others, fairy tales seem to cease to exist; others create fairy tales themselves.
Adults read fairy tales to their children, introduce them to the system of human values and relationships, and the rules and norms of behavior in society.
At the end of life, a person reads fairy tales to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Fairy tales help adults and children become close, learn to understand each other, and trust. After all, it is the fairy tale that is that invisible bridge between them in the sense that adults so often do not have enough time to talk with the baby. By telling fairy tales, they can feel the child’s feelings at least for a moment. For adults, this is an opportunity to talk with the child, not just teach. In response, the child trusts adults more. Therefore, fairy tales from ancient times have been an inexhaustible source of education for the most important human qualities.
In modern life, the concept of fairy tale therapy has appeared. Through fairytale therapy, you can work with aggression, self-doubt, shyness, the problem of shame, guilt, and lies. In fairy tale therapy, the process of selecting for each person his own special fairy tale is important, which will help reveal potential parts of his personality, something unrealized, and teach self-help methods that allow him to cope with conflict, problems and life difficulties. As a result, a person develops a feeling of security, and the inner and outer world will open up.
A fairy tale can be called a means of introducing a person to life.
My fairy tales.
“We are together, we feel good.”
Once upon a time there lived a mother and father. They had a daughter. Mom and dad worked all day, and they did not have enough time to communicate with their daughter.
And the daughter grew up. She felt lonely and lacked communication. One evening, after returning from work, my mother entered her daughter’s room. She looked at her sleeping daughter and saw tears that had not yet dried under her eyes. The mother stroked her daughter's hair with her warm hands. “What a waste of time. After all, I didn’t notice how my daughter was growing,” my mother whispered. She looked around and saw pictures drawn by her daughter on the wall. On one of them a house was drawn, nearby there were flowers and green grass, a blue sky and a bright sun. And in the center of the picture is a girl walking, holding the hands of her father and mother. The smiling faces in the picture seemed to say: “We are together, we feel good.” Mom showed her daughter's painting to her father. Leaving everything behind, they decided to take a walk with their daughter. Dad picked up his daughter and began to tell her interesting stories. Mom also listened attentively and quietly rejoiced, watching the happy faces of her husband and daughter. For her this day seemed extraordinary. The girl was never lonely again.
Radustik and Sad.
Once upon a time there lived twin rabbits in the forest. One was called Radustik, the other Sad. When they grew up, they had to leave their father's house. They began to look for a hole for themselves. Radustik was cheerful, joyful, sociable. He had many friends who helped him find a hole at the edge of the forest. Sadness lived in an old hedgehog hole, it was cold in it. He was timid, clumsy, sad, always afraid of something.
One day Radustik invited Sadness to visit, but he was afraid to leave the hole and sat at home all day. The slightest rustle or rustle of grass terrified him, he imagined terrible pictures.
One night it started to rain heavily. Sadness's hole couldn't stand it and collapsed. He found himself alone, it was dark and damp. Suddenly he heard a rustling sound, it was a hedgehog. The hedgehog called Sadness to him. This time he was not afraid, because he felt warmly treated.
Morning came, the sun was getting hotter and hotter. The terrible world, as Sadness imagined it, turned out to be bright and kind. Gradually he made new friends. Radustik looked for a good hole for Sadness next to the river, and they began to live, enjoying every new day.
You can’t despair, sadness and joy live side by side. Radustik will always come and remind you that a new day will come, everything will be fine.
There was an old stump in the forest. He was lonely and unwanted. His old friends, the oak and aspen trees standing nearby, had forgotten him. The world seemed gloomy to him. In the evenings he remembered his youth and felt sad.
One day a small hedgehog approached the stump.
“Hello, Uncle Stump,” the hedgehog greeted.
Hello baby. What are you doing here alone? – the stump was worried.
The hedgehog said that he was looking for a mink. He asked for help. Stump was very happy at the hedgehog’s request, because no one had ever asked him for help. He suggested digging a hole under its root. So they began to live together. The hedgehog felt good in the warm embrace of the stump, especially in winter, and the stump was happy because he had a friend.
After a long winter, spring has come. A stump reappeared from under the snow and the hedgehog woke up. The hedgehog was grateful to his friend and told his dreams.
Suddenly the stump felt that something was quietly moving under the root, and asked the hedgehog to look. A weak, small sprout of a new tree stretched towards the sun. The hedgehog and the stump helped him get out from under the root. Soon flowers bloomed around, and butterflies flocked to the flowers. The world was so beautiful. Stump is happy because he has friends around him who need him.
In a clearing under a small bush he lived - he was already there. He crawled through the forest all day long and was sad, looking at the sky. One day a flying swan noticed him and descended on the snake.
Why are you so sad? - asked the swan.
Oh! How I would like to fly into the sky, look at the world from above, but there are no wings.
The swan took pity on the snake and came up with a way to show him the earth from above.
Well, let me help you. Lie on my back and I'll give you a ride.
Hooray! - he shouted, - now everyone will envy me.
The white swan rose into the sky. He was already happy, his dream had come true. A vast world opened up before him, it was wonderful. He suddenly realized that he was part of this beautiful thing, that you shouldn’t be sad, you need to live and enjoy your surroundings.
It was already slippery, and he wrapped himself around the swan’s neck so as not to fall. The swan felt pain and soon sank to the ground.

It’s enough to look around, because there may be another person nearby who needs your help, whose dream you can fulfill. And he will help you. Dreams come true, you have to believe.
Once upon a time there was a dog. The guys named her Bobby. The dog lived in the dirty basement of a large house. She was beautiful, the children wanted to cuddle her, but the dog did not let anyone near her, she growled. Therefore, the children began to be afraid of her. In the evening the dog went into the dirty, cold basement.
A lonely old man lived in the house. No one came to him, so he often left the house and sat on the bench for a long time. When he saw Bobby, he tried to call her over. A girl passing by stopped her grandfather:
Don't touch her, she's very angry.
The old man looked at the dog and said:
No, she's not angry, she's scared. Someone must have offended her greatly. There is something good in every living soul.
“Can she find a friend?” the girl asked.
“I know how to make friends with her,” the old man answered smiling and went home.
A few minutes later he left the house and brought out a pot of hot soup. Bobbi approached carefully, looked around and began to eat.
The old man fed the dog every day. The dog became attached to people and began to trust. The old man took the dog home. They became very good friends and often went out for walks. The children stopped being afraid of her and played happily with her. Bobby liked to play too. She realized that not everything in life is so bad, there are good people who can help in difficult times and who can be needed.
Once upon a time there was a girl. She was afraid of everything. She had no friends and was a poor student. The girl was afraid to answer at the blackboard, afraid to make a mistake. She tried to hide her fear, so she tried to appear angry. The girl did not think about the future, she lived only in the past. She was tormented by doubts, always regretted something, and cried at night.
“Really, how long can I hide from myself and others that I am afraid. I have to admit my fear. What can I do to help myself? - the girl thought. She looked in the mirror and imagined that she was standing on the edge of an abyss. She was scared, she was afraid of falling. She imagined that this was not an abyss at all, but only a small crevice and she only needed to take one step. She looked ahead, thought that this was her future and jumped. Happened! She felt good. She believed that she could overcome fear, everything was in her hands.
Since then, the girl began to study well and made many friends.
Today, at the beginning of the third millennium, people are intuitively drawn to the knowledge contained in fairy tales. In recent years, fairy tales and parables have begun to be used as a psychotherapeutic intervention in a person’s internal picture of the world. They help resolve intrapsychic conflicts and relieve emotional stress, change a person’s life position and behavior.
The texts of fairy tales, as we have already noted, arouse interest among children and adults; in them one can find a complete list of human problems and ways to solve them. Using the example of fairy tale heroes, a person begins to comprehend his own life. By influencing the consciousness and subconscious, a fairy tale can help him determine the right path to solving his problem, and by projecting the actions of the hero of a fairy tale onto modern life, changing his thinking and behavior, a person can take the path of personal development and cure nervous disorders and somatic diseases.
