Granddaughter from the fairy tale turnip. Everyone especially likes it when the fairy tale is costumed. Phrases for actors of a fun theatrical performance

Another Russian folk tale that our parents had to read to us “to the core” in childhood - turnip. And later, when I was reading fairy tales to my children before bed, when asked: “What are we going to read about today?” the answer was often a joyful answer: “about the turnip!” Have you ever had this happen? Well, that means there will be more! 🙂

And yet, it seems, there is no special space left for creativity. But still I tried to somehow revive classic plot, bring something new into it.

Children were always delighted by such small finds; apparently, they were also interested in finding something new in a familiar text every time. So you, when you read a fairy tale about a turnip to your children, also try to somehow revive and complement the canonical plot.

Believe me, your kids will love it! And it’s not at all as difficult as it seems at first glance! 🙂 Now I’ll prove it!

By the way, did you know that the Russian folk tale about the turnip was written down by folklore collector A.N. Afanasyev in Arkhangelsk province? And in the folklore version, the legs are involved in pulling out the turnip: “Another leg came; the other leg behind the leg; leg for the bitch, bitch for the granddaughter, granddaughter for the grandmother, grandmother for the grandfather, they pull and pull, they can’t pull it out!” And only with the arrival of the fifth leg is it possible to defeat the turnip.

There are several parodies and variants based on the plot of the fairy tale “Turnip”. For example, A.P. wrote on the topic of Turnips. Chekhov, V. Kataev, Kir Bulchev, and even.

Today we will not read all the versions of the fairy tale about the turnip, but will limit ourselves to two: the classic one, and as presented by V. Dahl. In which, by the way, the role of the savior mouse is played by... a neighbor!!! Well, now let’s read the fairy tale about the turnip and try to diversify the text.

Russian folktale:

turnip

Once upon a time there lived a grandfather and a woman in a village. One spring my grandfather planted a turnip and said:
- Grow, turnip, grow sweet! Grow, turnip, grow strong!

How much time has passed, but the turnip has grown large, strong, juicy and folded. The grandfather saw how big the turnip had grown, he was delighted, he went to pick the turnip, but he couldn’t pull it out!

Then the grandfather called the grandmother for help. The grandmother came and grabbed hold of the grandfather.
Grandma for grandfather, Grandfather for turnip - They pull and pull, but they can’t pull it out.

Then the grandmother called her granddaughter.
The granddaughter came running to help pull the turnip out of the ground

Granddaughter for grandmother,
Grandma for grandfather
Grandfather for the turnip -

Then the granddaughter called the dog Zhuchka. Bug came running to help pull the turnip out of the ground

A bug for my granddaughter,
Granddaughter for grandmother,
Grandma for grandfather
Grandfather for the turnip -
They pull and pull, but they can’t pull it out.

Then Bug called the cat. The cat came running to help pull the turnip out of the ground
Cat for Bug,
A bug for my granddaughter,
Granddaughter for grandmother,
Grandma for grandfather
Grandfather for the turnip -
They pull and pull, but they can’t pull it out.

And then the cat called the mouse. A mouse came running to help pull the turnip out of the ground
A mouse for a cat
Cat for Bug,
A bug for my granddaughter,
Granddaughter for grandmother,
Grandma for grandfather
Grandfather for the turnip -
They pulled and pulled - and together they pulled out the turnip!
Grandma cooked porridge from turnips. The porridge turned out to be extremely tasty and sweet. The grandmother set the table and invited everyone who helped pull out the turnip to eat porridge: the piper, the granddaughter, the bug and the cat. And the most important guest at the table was the mouse. Everyone ate the porridge and praised it: oh yes turnip, oh yes grandma!

Well, now the same fairy tale "TURNIP", but in a retelling IN AND. Dalia.

There lived an old man and an old woman, and a third granddaughter; spring has come, the snow has melted; So the old woman says: it’s time to dig the garden; “It’s probably time,” the old man said, sharpened his spade and went into the garden.

He dug and dug, went through all the earth little by little and fluffed up the ridges amazingly; The old woman praised the ridge and sowed turnips.

The turnip has sprouted, it is growing and green and curly, the tops are spreading along the ground, and under the ground the yellow turnip is sulking, rushing up, climbing out of the ground.

What a turnip! say the neighbors, looking through the fence! And grandfather and grandmother and their granddaughter rejoice and say: we will have something to bake and steam during the fast!

Then came the Assumption Fast, which is called Mistresses, grandfather wanted to eat the boy’s turnips, he went into the garden, grabbed the turnips by the tops, and well, pulled; pulls, pulls, cannot pull; he shouted to the old woman, the old woman came, grabbed hold of grandfather and pulled; they pull, they pull together, but they cannot pull the turnips; The granddaughter came, grabbed her grandmother, and the three of them pulled; They pull and pull the turnip, but they cannot pull it out.

The mongrel bug came running, clung to her granddaughter, and everyone was pulling and pulling, but they couldn’t pull out the turnips! The old man is out of breath, the old woman is coughing, the granddaughter is crying, the bug is barking; a neighbor came running, grabbed the bug by the tail, the bug by the granddaughter, the granddaughter by the grandmother, the grandmother by the grandfather, the grandfather by the turnip, they pulled and pulled, but they couldn’t pull it out!

They pulled and pulled, and when the tops broke, they all fell backwards: grandfather on grandmother, grandmother on granddaughter, granddaughter on the bug, bug on the neighbor, and the neighbor on the ground.

Grandma Ah! the grandfather waves his hands, the granddaughter cries, the bug barks, the neighbor rubs the back of his head, and the turnip, as if nothing had happened, sits in the ground! The neighbor scratched himself and said: oh grandfather, the beard grew but he couldn’t stand it; Give us a spade, let's dig it out of the ground!

Then the old man and the old woman guessed, grabbed a spade and, well, picked the turnips; they dug up, took out, shook, but the turnips were such that they wouldn’t fit into any pot; what to do? The old woman took it, put it in a frying pan, baked it, and she and her neighbor ate a quarter of it, and gave the skins to the bug. That's the whole fairy tale, you can't say more.

The fairy tale "Turnip - 2" - in a new way

The second tale is more complicated in that, in addition to words, each actor also needs to make appropriate movements. Therefore, before the fairy tale, right in front of the audience, you can rehearse.

Roles and their description:
turnip- at every mention of her, he raises his hands above his head in a ring and says: "Both on".
Grandfather- rubs his hands and says: "So-so".
Grandma- waves his fist at his grandfather and says: "I would kill".
Granddaughter- He rests his hands on his sides and says in a languid voice: "I'm ready".
Bug- wags his tail - "Bow-wow".
Cat- licks himself with his tongue - “Pssh-meow.”
Mouse- hides his ears, covering them with his palms - “Pee-pee-scat.”
Sun— stands on a chair and looks, and as the story progresses, he moves to the other side of the “stage.”

Fairy tales can be played in the same way "Teremok", "Kolobok" etc.

If you wish, you can make masks. Print on a color printer and cut out, enlarging the image to the right size— depending on who the masks are needed for (children or adults).
