التمتع الرياضي لدى طفل الروضة

Abstract EN

Sport is characterized by its superior ability to develop the spirit of work, cooperation, and collective participation in children, especially in the early childhood stage.

because he feels joy while helping others, as well as pleasure because he believes that he has become a part of the whole, then his selfish spirit will disappear and he will become a social person through his next stages of development.

several studies in the field of children’s sports indicated that most children in the primary school stage hated playing most sports as a result of forcing parents to practice them, and this is what prompted children not to enjoy it, but rather to hate its name and aversion to practicing it at the age they reached.

for that, the researcher sought to reveal the level of sports enjoyment among kindergarten children, as she built a scale consisting of (17) items, and then extracted the psychometric properties for it from the coefficients of discrimination, validity and stability, as the items of the scale were applied to a sample consisting of (300) a boy and a girl, and asked the teachers to answer the items of the scale by being the closest to the child in kindergarten, and the research results showed the following: 1- kindergarten children do not have sports enjoyment while playing sports.

2- there is no effect of gender and stage on the level of kindergarten children's possession of sports enjoyment.

the researcher, after presenting the results of the research, also made several recommendations and suggestions, in line with the findings of the current study.
