(The turnip jumps out and falls. Wiping her tears, The turnip hits the floor with a hat.)
You can, as a punishment for those who stray, come up with a fine, for example, jump 5 times (for children) or drink a glass (for adults).
Fairy tale "Turnip - 2" - in a new way
The second tale is more complicated in that, in addition to words, each actor 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 each mention of her, raises her hands above her head with a ring and says: "Both on".
Grandfather rubs his hands and says: "So-so".
grandma- he waves his fist to his grandfather and says: "I would have killed".
Granddaughter- rests his hands on his sides and says in a languid voice: "I'm ready".
bug- wagging its tail "Bow-wow".
Cat- licks himself with his tongue - "Pshsh-meow."
mouse- hides his ears, covering them with his palms - "Pee-pee-shove."
Sun- stands on a chair and looks, as the story moves to the other side of the "stage".
Fairy tales can be played in the same way "Teremok", "Kolobok" etc.
If you want, you can make masks. Print on a color printer and cut out, enlarging the picture to the desired size - depending on who needs the masks (for children or adults).
What fairy tale do parents read to their child first? Well, of course Repka. Russian folk tale about the heroic vegetable and the grandfather's family, including domestic animals that pulled out the turnip, is probably known to all children. But the question is: why does a simple fable attract children so much? Why is it one of the first fairy tales you read?
I think the whole point is that this fairy tale is all permeated with one idea - a miracle of turnip production from the earth)) The child quickly remembers the heroes of the story and the sequence of actions, and the text of the fairy tale, consisting of endless repetitions of a chain of gardeners extracting a turnip, is very simple. Repeat who pulled until you list everyone, that's the whole story. It is also surprising that in the fairy tale about the turnip there is no saying “once upon a time”. Grandfather immediately got down to business and planted a turnip. It is also interesting that in the original source (folklore collection by A.N. Afanasiev) among the heroes-getters of turnips appear: a knot and several legs. What are the legs and why are there five of them? - those still questions.
Whatever it was, but the tale of the turnip remains popular with children and unforgettable for parents. Read a turnip to your kids, ask them to repeat who pulled the turnip from the ground, train your baby's memory and speech. Happy reading!
turnip
Grandfather planted a turnip in the garden.
Grow, says the turnip is big, but strong. A big turnip has grown. Grandfather came to the garden, began to drag a turnip out of the ground: he pulls, he pulls, but he cannot pull it out.
Grandfather went to help grandmother to call. Grandmother pulls grandfather, grandfather pulls turnip, they pull and pull, but they can’t pull the turnip out.
The grandmother called her granddaughter for help. The granddaughter pulled the grandmother, the grandmother pulled the grandfather, and the grandfather pulled the turnip: they pulled, pulled, they couldn’t pull the turnip out.
The granddaughter called the dog Zhuchka. They began to drag the turnip together. A bug for a granddaughter, a granddaughter for a grandmother, a grandmother for a grandfather, and a grandfather for a turnip: they cannot pull it out.
The dog Zhuchka ran to call the cat Murka for help. Together they began to pull a turnip from the ground. Murka for the Beetle, the Beetle for the granddaughter, the granddaughter for the grandmother, the grandmother for the grandfather, and the grandfather is pulled by the turnip, but they cannot pull it out.
Murka ran and called the mouse. All together they began to drag a turnip from the ground. Mouse for Murka, Murka for Bug, Bug for granddaughter, granddaughter for grandmother, grandmother for grandfather, and grandfather for turnip.
Oh! Pulled out the turnip.
Often we think that each fairy tale exists in a single version, and the interpretation of fairy tales also does not shine with variety. But in the old folklore collections you can find very ancient versions of fairy tales familiar to us, in which events unfold somewhat differently. For example, in the fairy tale "Turnip" at first everything is quite familiar: "Grandfather planted a turnip ...". Further - nothing new either: the grandfather called the grandmother, the grandmother called the granddaughter, and the granddaughter called Zhuchka ... The end of the tale turned out to be completely different: “The bug called the cat. They pull, they pull, they can't pull it out. Tired, go to bed. And at night a mouse came and gnawed the whole turnip! Here's to you! Although both versions of the tale tell about work, but “our” version was a story about mutual assistance, and the ancient one was about the fact that every business must be brought to an end.

So the old man thought: “Let's put some turnips on the bathhouse, old woman!” Here they have planted turnips.Here the turnip has grown. Soon the storyteller will tell a fairy tale, but not soon the deed of the doer. The old man went down the turnip and ate this turnip. “Well, now, old woman, you go - I went!”
And the old woman was thin, thin, sick. “Don’t lick,” he says, “to me, old man!” - "Well, get into the bag, I'll lift you up!" Here the old woman sat down. The old man lifted it so and so to the bathhouse. She cut the turnips and said: “Well, old man, just fluff me!”
The old man put it in a bag and started fluffing it. Spushhal ie yes and dropped. So he dropped it, went down from the bathhouse, looked into the sack: and the old woman gave away her darling, she killed herself to death.

A fox is running: “Oh, hare, don’t basco voish! Hire me, old man: I'm a craftswoman howling something. - “Get it, gossip! take it, dove!” So she howled: “Alas, alas, alas! ..” Only here, she has nothing more than a parent.
A wolf runs: “Old man, hire me to howl! what are they up to?” - “Hire, hire, little wolf: I will give you a turnip!” So the wolf began to howl: “I-i-i!” Roared. The dogs in the village learned and barked. People ran with the bodags to beat the wolf.
Here the wolf grabbed the old woman on her back and, well, along the path - drowned her into the forest. That's it for you, it's all over.

Turnip. Kir Bulychev
Russian science fiction
The old man rolled up the sleeves of his vest, hung a teletransistor on a birch tree so as not to miss when they start broadcasting football, and was just about to weed a bed of turnips when he heard the voice of his neighbor, Ivan Vasilyevich, from behind a fence of dwarf magnolias.
- Hello, grandfather, - said Ivan Vasilyevich. - Are you preparing for the exhibition?
- To what kind of exhibition? asked the old man. - Didn't hear it.
- Yes, how! Exhibition of amateur gardeners. Regional.
- And what to exhibit something?
- Who is rich. Emilia Ivanovna brought out a blue watermelon. Volodya Zharov can boast of roses without thorns ...
- Well, what about you? asked the old man.
- Me? Yes, there is only one hybrid.
- Hybrid, you say? - The old man felt something was wrong and in his hearts pushed away his beloved cyber, nicknamed "Mouse", who ran up unnecessarily with his foot. - I have not heard that you indulge in hybridization.
- Pepin saffron crossed with a Martian cactus. Interesting results I'm even going to write an article. Wait a minute, I'll show you.
The neighbor disappeared, only the bushes rustled.
“Here,” he said, returning. - You taste, grandfather, do not be afraid. They have an interesting flavor. And cut off the thorns with a knife, they are inedible.
The old man didn't like the smell. He said goodbye to his neighbor and, forgetting to remove the teletransistor from the birch, went to the house. To the old woman he said:
- And what is it for people in their old age to breed thorns? You tell me why?
The old woman was aware of the matter and therefore answered without hesitation:
- They sent him these cacti from Mars in a parcel. His son has an internship there.
“Son, son!” grumbled the old man. - Who does not have them, sons? Yes, our Varya will give any son a hundred points ahead. Am I telling the truth?
- The truth, - the old woman did not argue. - You're only spoiling her.
Varya was the old man's favorite granddaughter. She lived in the city, worked at the Biological Institute, but she never forgot her grandparents and always spent her holidays with them, in the silence of a distant Siberian village. And now she was sleeping in the solarium of a modest old man's hut and did not hear how her old people praised her.
Grandfather sat on the bench for a long time, grieving. The neighbor's words hurt him greatly. They competed with him for a long time, twenty years, since both retired. And all the neighbor overtook him. Either he will bring a cyber janitor from the city, then he will get an electronic mushroom detector somewhere, then suddenly he will start collecting stamps and receive a medal at an exhibition in Bratislava. The neighbor was restless. And now this hybrid. What about the old man? Only a turnip bed.
The old man went out into the garden. The turnips stretched together, promised to become strong and sweet, but did not differ in anything special. You can't even take them to an exhibition. The grandfather was so thoughtful that he did not notice how the sleepy granddaughter approached him, stretching.
- What is unhappy, grandfather? she asked.
“Again, the Bug bit off Cyber’s leg,” the grandfather lied. - It is a shame before people for such senseless animal.
Grandfather did not want to admit that the cause of the disorder was envy. But the granddaughter already guessed that it was not the dog Bug.
"You wouldn't get upset about the cyber," she said.
Then the old man sighed and in an undertone told her the whole story about the exhibition and the neighbor's hybrid.
- Can't you find anything? granddaughter was surprised.
- The point is not to get to the exhibition, but to prize-winning place take. And not with Martian things, but with our, earthly, native fruit or vegetable. It's clear?
- Well, what about your turnips? - asked the granddaughter.
- Small, - answered the grandfather, - how small.
Varya did not answer, turned and went into the hut. Her phosphorescent tunic left a slight pleasant fragrance in the air.
Before the fragrance had dissipated, she returned with a large syringe in her hand.
“Here,” she said. - There's a new biostimulator. We fought over him for three months at the institute. The mice have been exterminated apparently-invisibly. The experiments, however, have not yet been completed, but even now we can say that it has a decisive influence on the growth of living organisms. I was just about to try it on plants, so the case turned up.
My grandfather knew a little about science. After all, he worked for thirty years as a chef on the Luna-Jupiter passenger line. The old man took a syringe and own hand rolled a full dose into a golden barrel of a turnip nearest to him. He tied the leaves with a red cloth and went to bed.
The next morning, even without a rag, one could recognize a pricked turnip. During the night, she noticeably grew up and overtook her companions. Grandfather was delighted and, just in case, gave her another shot.
There were three days left before the exhibition, and we had to hurry. Moreover, the neighbor Ivan Vasilievich did not sleep at night, he set up an electric scarecrow so that the crows would not peck the crop.
Another day has passed. The turnip had already grown the size of a watermelon, and its leaves reached the old man to the waist. The old man carefully dug up the rest of the plants from the garden and poured three cans of water with organic fertilizers onto the turnip. Then he dug in a turnip so that the air would pass more freely to the root system.
And I didn't trust anyone with this job. No grandmother, no granddaughter, no robots.
Behind this occupation, a neighbor caught him. Ivan Vasilyevich parted the magnolia leaves, marveled and asked:
- What do you have, old man?
- A secret weapon, - the grandfather answered not without malice. - I want to go to the exhibition. Praise for achievements.
The neighbor shook his head for a long time, doubted, then left anyway. Ravens scare away from their hybrids.
On the morning of the decisive day, the old man got up early, took out the cosmonaut's uniform from the chest, scoured the badge of honor for ten billion kilometers in space with chalk, polished his shoes with magnetic horseshoes, and, in full dress, went out into the garden.
The spectacle before his eyes was impressive and almost fabulous.
During the last night, the turnip grew ten times more. Its leaves, each the size of a double sheet, swayed lazily, intertwining with birch branches. The earth around the turnip cracked, as if trying to push out its huge body, the top of which reached the old man's knees.
Despite the early hour, passers-by crowded in the street, and they greeted grandfather with stupid questions and praise.
Behind a fence of dwarf magnolias, a startled neighbor bustled about.
“Well,” the old man said to himself, “it’s time to pull you out, my dear. In an hour, the car will come from the exhibition committee.
He pulled the turnip at the base of the stems.
The turnip didn't even budge. On the street, someone laughed.
- The old woman! - shouted the grandfather. - Come here, help pull the turnip!
The old woman looked out the window, gasped, and a minute later, accompanied by her granddaughter and the dog Zhuchka, joined the old man.
But the turnip didn't budge. The old man pulled, the old woman pulled, the granddaughter pulled, even the dog Zhuchka pulled - they were exhausted.
Cat Vaska, who usually did not take any part in the life of the family, jumped from the roof of the solarium on his grandfather's shoulder and also pretended to help pull the turnip. In fact, he just got in the way.
- Let's call the Mouse, - said the old woman. “After all, according to the instructions, it has seventy-two horsepower.
They called a cyber, nicknamed "Mouse".
The turnip staggered, and its leaves rustled noisily overhead.
And then the neighbor Ivan Vasilievich jumped over the fence, and the spectators from the street rushed to the rescue, and the platform car of the exhibition committee that drove up picked up the turnip with a truck crane ...
And so, all together: the old man, the old woman, the granddaughter, the Bug, the cat Vaska, the cyber, nicknamed "Mouse", the neighbor Ivan Vasilievich, passers-by, the truck crane - all together they pulled a turnip out of the ground.
It remains only to add that at the regional exhibition of amateur gardeners, the old man received the first prize and a medal.

In a community, even the smallest and most frail member is useful if he makes an effort and tries to do at least something.
