"like a frog looking for dad" - reasoning about a fairy tale. The Image of the Pope in Children's Literature Brer Wolf's Failure by Harris D.C.

I watched the cartoon "How the frog was looking for dad." According to the plot, such a fairy tale was composed. I think it can be put with older children on Father's Day or on February 23rd. You can accompany the story with music. HOW A FROG LOOKED FOR THE VED'S DAD: There lived a frog in the world, He was green from the cradle. And he was quite happy, But one day he became sad. Frog: If I had a dad, We would always walk with him, We would play football with him, we would study the ABC. He would be caring. And he taught me everything. (sad) I don't have a dad! I'll find it then! (joyfully) VED: The frog ran away, Jump! And he was in the river. Lie: Nobody. Well, how is it? (looks around, surprised) VED: Suddenly ... cancer is coming towards him. (backs away. Lying-ok gallops to him) Lie down: Forgive the frog, the Foolish child. I want to offer you to be the best Dad, For me, for a frog, An unreasonable child. Cancer: Why? Lie down: To walk, Swim and dive together! Cancer: Well, let's try, don't swim far! (Lying. swims, dives to the music. Cancer only moves back) Cancer: No, wait, frog! I don't want to be a dad. I'm so big, solid, Only I'm moving along the bottom. I can't be a father, I'd rather go back to my house. Lie down: What a pity, I'll swim further, There I can find my dad. (A crocodile walks along the shore) Lie down: Hello, I'm a frog, Nice, little child, Could you become a dad, We'll play together! Krok: What an interesting you are, You decided to play with me. Well, then let's play hide and seek. Eat it and you'll be fine! (he says to the side and strokes his stomach) Jump into my mouth as soon as possible! Try not to fall! (opens mouth wide) Lie down: I can't jump, (Lie down. tries to jump high) Sorry, uncle, baby! Krok: Go, silly, I'm not angry, My stomach is full of food. Only an hour ago I played hide-and-seek (stroking my stomach) Everything is fine with me now. Lyag: What a pity, I'll swim further. I can find my dad there. (croc leaves. The frog swims) Hippo: Hey, frog, swim up! Hurry, scratch my ear, Yes, rub your sides harder, Sprinkle water on me. (Lie down. Performs all actions) Lie down: You are so big and glorious, (he speaks with admiration) Are you the main one in the river? Become a dad for me, So I dream about him. Can you teach me, And surround me with care? Let's live together with you, It's more fun to live together! Hippo: Learn? Take care? No no! Here, frog, is my answer. Lyag: Well, I'll swim further. Maybe I'll find my dad there. (Sobs are heard) Is someone crying? Yes. Yes. Yes. Did trouble happen? (notices a crying grasshopper) Hey. Grasshopper, don't cry! Wipe your nose and explain why you lost your way? Or maybe you got lost? Grasshopper: Very scary alone, I'm looking for Dad in the forest. Lyag: So you don't have a dad? (Grasshopper shakes his head) So here's the thing, here's the secret. Lie down: I will help you, baby, I can become a dad for you! Now let's go for a walk with you, Then we'll play ball. I'll take care of you, It makes me feel so good. (they join hands and walk singing a song) Grasshopper: The frog is so good, You won't find a better dad. Together: There is nowhere, nowhere else, Frog like this!

This fairy tale was once composed by Tatyana Snegireva, a journalist for Komsomolskaya Pravda, for her little daughter Katya. Then someone adult and cunning wrote it down and made a script for the cartoon, not saying a word about who and for whom this fairy tale was told for the first time. My mother heard this tale from Tatiana and told me. And now I'm telling it to you the way I remember and loved this story as a child.

(Dina Shi)

So, there lived a little green frog in the world. And he didn't have a dad. The frog himself decided to find his dad, and went to the Zoo. “After all, there are many different animals, and there, for sure, you can find dad,” thought the Frog.

At the Zoo, the Frog first went to the cage with the Elephant. After all, the Elephant is the largest of the animals. The Frog crept as close as possible to the fence of the elephant and shouted with all his might:

Elephant! You are so big, you eat a lot of grass! You are so strong! You are lifting heavy logs! And I'm so small and eat midges. Come on, will you be my daddy?

The elephant did not even immediately see the Frog. And when he saw it, he smiled and blew:

I'm so big. I eat a lot of grass and lift heavy logs. And you're so small that I can't even see you. How can I be your dad?

The Frog sighed and galloped to the cage with the Giraffe. Coming closer, he shouted with all his might:

Giraffe! You are so big, you have such a long neck! You reach the very tops of the trees! And I'm so small, and I jump in the grass. Come on, will you be my daddy?

The giraffe also did not immediately see the Frog. He tilted his long neck to get a better look at who was screaming. And when he looked at it, he laughed and said:

I'm so big! I have such a long neck that I can reach the tops of trees. And you are so small that you cannot be seen in the grass. How can I be your dad?

The Frog was upset and galloped to the cage with the Tiger. He was a little afraid of the Tiger, but he so wanted to have a dad! Having galloped to the Tiger, he gathered courage for a long time, and then shouted:

Tiger! You are so big and scary! You have sharp teeth and you eat meat. Everyone is afraid of you! And I'm so small and weak. Come on, you'll be my dad.

The tiger yawned lazily (he was full), and growled contemptuously:

That's funny! I'm so big and scary! I eat meat! And you're so small and weak. How can I be your dad?

The Frog was completely upset. I even almost cried. And he galloped into the grass, away from these animals. Suddenly, he sees a small green Grasshopper sitting in the grass. The Frog jumped up to the Grasshopper and said:

Grasshopper Grasshopper! I'm so big and you're so small! Come on, can I be your daddy?

And the Grasshopper agreed.

Fairy tale one

Once a frog sat by the river and watched the yellow sun swim in the blue water. And then the wind came and said, "Du." And along the river and the sun went wrinkles. Then the wind got angry and said again: “Doo, du, du.” Very much. He apparently wanted to smooth wrinkles, but there were more of them.

And then the frog got angry. He took a twig and said to the wind: “And I will drive you away. Why are you wrinkling the water and the beloved sun?

And he drove the wind, drove it through the forest, through the field, through the big yellow ditch. He drove him to the mountains, where goats and sheep graze.

And all day there the frog jumped after the wind and waved a twig. Someone thought: he drives away the bees. Someone thought: he scares the birds. But he didn't scare anyone or anything.

He was small. He was a freak. Just rode in the mountains and pastured the wind.

Tale two

And yesterday a red cow came to visit the frog. She mumbled, shook her smart head and suddenly asked: “Excuse me, green, but what would you do if you were a red cow?”

I don’t know, but for some reason I don’t really want to be a red cow.

And yet?

I would still change my hair color from red to green.

Well, then what?

Then I would saw off the horns.

What for?

To not fight.

Well, and then?

Then I would file the legs ... So as not to kick.

Well, and then, then?

Then I would say: “Look, what kind of a cow am I? I'm just a little green frog."

Fairy tale three

Probably, he would have been small all his life, but one day this happened.

Everyone knows what he is looking for. And what the frog was looking for, he himself did not know. Maybe mom; maybe dad; maybe grandma or grandpa.

In the meadow he saw a big cow.

Cow, cow, he said to her, do you want to be my mother?

Well, what are you, - mumbled the cow. - I'm big, and you're so small!

On the river he met a hippopotamus.

Hippo, hippo, will you be my daddy?

Well, what are you, - the hippo smacked. - I'm big, and you're small!

The bear did not want to become a grandfather. And here the frog got angry. He found a small grasshopper in the grass and said to him:

Well, that's it! I am big and you are small. And I'll still be your dad.

Fairy tale four

What are butterflies? asked the grasshopper.

Flowers are odorless, answered the frog. - They bloom in the morning. In the evening they crumble. One day I was sitting in a meadow: a blue butterfly had faded. Her wings lay on the grass - they were stroked by the wind. Then I came and stroked too. I said, “Where are these blue petals from? Probably flying around the blue sky.

If the blue sky flies around, it will turn pink. If the blue sky flies around, the sun will bloom. In the meantime, we must sit in the meadow and stroke the blue petals.

Fairy tale five

Everyone wants to be bigger. Here is a goat - he wants to be a ram. The ram wants to be a bull. The bull is an elephant.

And the little frog also wanted to get bigger. But how, how to do it? Pull yourself by the paw? - does not work. For the ear, too. And no tail...

And then he went out into a large field, sat down on a small hillock and waited for the sun to set.

And when the sun rolled towards sunset, a shadow began to grow from the frog. In the beginning she was like a goat; then - like a ram; then - like a bull; and then - like a big, big elephant.

Then the frog was delighted and shouted:

And I'm a big elephant!

Only the big elephant was very offended.

And you are not an elephant, - he said to the frog. - This is your shadow - a big elephant. And you, you just like that - a big weirdo at the end of the day.
