In kindergartens they will form in children aged 5-6 an "understanding of Crimea as part of Russia." They will also be asked to make a police officer out of modeling clay

The organizers of the "Kind Games" project, which is an analogue of "Conversations About Important Things" for preschoolers, plan to form in children from age 5 an understanding of annexed Crimea as a "part of Russia," according to methodological recommendations for the classes, Verstka noticed.

Lesson plans titled "Adventures in Crimea" are in the block devoted to the value of the "Motherland," and they differ depending on the preschooler's age. Thus, methodologists plan to tell children aged 5-6 that the Crimean Bridge was built so that it would become easier for Russians to get to the peninsula. This is supposed to help create an "emotional attitude toward unity and the celebration of reunification."

"It connected Crimea with all of Russia. Crimea is our Russian peninsula. We are proud of it. The Crimean Bridge is not just a road. It is a symbol of our unity, might, and love for the Motherland," the recommendations for the senior group say.

Children aged 6-7 in the preparatory group are supposed to form a "holistic understanding of Crimea as a historical part of Russia that returned home," an emotional attitude toward the "historical connection between Crimea and Russia," and a sense of justice regarding their "reunification." The child is supposed to feel like a "conscious patriot."

"Crimea has always been connected with Russia. And several years ago it returned to our big Russian family. The Day of Crimea's reunification with Russia is a historic event, the restoration of justice," the lesson тезисы for the preparatory group say.

In addition, the methodological recommendations on the topic of "Labor" have a separate block titled "Profession: safety." Children aged 5-6 will be asked to make a police officer out of modeling clay and make a doctor, while those aged 6-7 will create a police station with officers, a car, and a building, or a first-aid kit for a doctor.

🟦From September 1, 2026, "Kind Games" classes were introduced for preschoolers across the country. A year earlier, a trial of the project began in 22 regions of Russia.
