Behind the spruce forest. under the cheerful sun in a small village there lived an old man and an old woman. The old man was cutting willow twigs. he wove baskets, the old woman spun wool, knitted stockings and mittens.

One day a misfortune happened: the old woman’s spinning wheel broke, and the knife with which the old man cut the rods had a cracked handle. So the old woman says:
- Go, grandfather, to the forest, cut down a tree. Let's make a new spinning wheel and a handle for the knife.

“Okay, grandma, I’ll go,” the old man answered.
I got ready and went into the forest.
An old man comes to the forest. I chose a suitable tree. But as soon as he swung the ax, he froze in place: fathers, who is this?!

Forest Grandfather emerges from the thicket. It was Grandfather dressed in shaggy branches, spruce cones in his hair, pine cones in his beard, a gray mustache hanging to the ground, his eyes shining with green lights.
“Don’t touch my trees, old man,” says the Forest Grandfather, “after all, they are all alive, they also want to live.” Better ask me what you need, I’ll give you everything.

Our old man was surprised. Doesn't know what to say. but did not argue. He thought and said:
- Okay, just wait, I have to go home and consult with the old woman.
“Okay,” answers the Forest Grandfather, “go, get some advice, and come back to this place tomorrow.”


- Why did you go into the forest, old man? You didn’t even cut down a tree?
And the old man laughs:
- Don't be angry, grandma! Let's go to the hut. Listen to what happened to me!

They entered the hut, sat down on a bench, the old man began to tell how the Forest Grandfather came out to him from the thicket and what happened next.
“Now we’ll think about what we’ll ask the Forest Grandfather,” the old man says. - Do you want, grandma, to ask him for a lot, a lot of money? He will give. He is a forest owner, he knows all the treasures buried in the forest.

- What are you doing, old man! Why do we need lots and lots of money? We have nowhere to hide them. And we will be afraid that thieves will steal them away at night. No, grandfather, we don’t need other people’s money. We have enough of our own.
“Well, do you want,” the old man says, “let’s ask for a large, large herd of cows and sheep?” We will graze them in the meadow.

- Come to your senses, grandfather! What good do we need a big, big herd? We won't be able to deal with him. After all, we have a little cow, Burenushka, who gives milk, and we have six sheep who give us wool. What do we need big for?

- Or maybe ask the Forest Grandfather for a thousand chickens? - the old man asks.
- Well, what do we need with you and a thousand chickens? What are we going to feed them? What are we going to do with them? We have three crested hens, we have Petya the cockerel, and that’s enough for us.

The most precious thing is a fairy tale about an old man and an old woman, who, out of all the gifts offered, chose the opportunity to work and earn their own living...

The most expensive thing to read

Once upon a time there lived an old man and his old woman in an old hut. The old man cuts willow twigs, weaves baskets, and the old woman weaves flax. That's what they feed on.

Here they sit and work:

Oh, grandfather, it’s become difficult for us to work: my spinning wheel is broken!

Yes, yes, and look, the handle of my knife is cracked and can barely hold on.

Go to the forest, old man, cut down a tree, we’ll make a new spinning wheel and a handle for a knife.

And that’s right, I’ll go.

The old man went into the forest. He spotted a good tree. He just swung his ax, and the Forest Grandfather comes out of the thicket. He is dressed in shaggy branches, has fir cones in his hair, pine cones in his beard, a gray mustache hangs to the ground, his eyes glow with green lights.

“Don’t touch,” he says, “my trees: after all, they are all alive, they also want to live.” It’s better to ask me what you need, I’ll give you everything.

The old man was surprised and delighted. I went home to consult with the old woman. They sat down next to each other on a bench in front of the hut.
The old man asks:

Well, old woman, what are we going to ask the Forest Grandfather? Do you want us to ask for a lot, a lot of money? He will give.

What do we need, old man? We have nowhere to hide them. No, old man, we don't need money!

Well, do you want us to ask for a large, large herd of cows and sheep?

What do we need, old man? We won't be able to cope with him. We have a cow - it gives milk, we have six sheep - they give wool. What more do we need? No need!

Or maybe, old woman, we’ll ask the Forest Grandfather for a thousand chickens?

What did you come up with, old man? What are we going to feed them? What are we going to do with them? We have three crested hens, we have Petya the cockerel - that’s enough for us.

The old man and the old woman thought and thought, but they couldn’t come up with anything: they had everything they needed, and what they didn’t have, they could always earn money with their own efforts. The old man stood up from the bench and said:

I, the old woman, figured out what to ask the Forest Grandfather!

He went into the forest. And towards him is the Forest Grandfather, dressed in shaggy branches, spruce cones in his hair, pine cones in his beard, a gray mustache hanging to the ground, his eyes shining with green lights.

Well, little man, have you thought of what you want?

“I thought of it,” the old man says. - Make sure that our spinning wheel and knife never break and that our hands are always healthy. Then we will earn everything we need for ourselves.

“Be it your way,” the Forest Grandfather answers.

And the old man and the old woman have lived and lived ever since. The old man cuts willow twigs, weaves baskets, the old woman spins wool, knits mittens.

That's what they feed on.

And they live well, happily!

The most precious thing is a children's instructive Russian folk tale about what is really important and valuable in our lives. The tale can be read online or downloaded in DOC and PDF format.
Summary of the fairy tale The Most Expensive You can start with the story of an old man and an old woman who lived quietly and peacefully in their village and did what they loved. But one day their tools broke down, without which their work would not have been possible. Grandfather went into the forest to cut down a tree to make a spinning wheel and a handle. As soon as he swung his axe, the Forest Grandfather came out of the forest and asked not to touch the trees, and in return promised to fulfill any wish. It would seem that it would be easier to come up with a wish? for example, in other fairy tales the heroes did not have problems with this. But this fairy tale is interesting because the plot acquires an instructive moment with an explanation. Asking for a lot of money means losing your peace of mind, asking for a herd of cows means you’re afraid you won’t be able to cope, asking for a lot of chickens means there’s no point, the two of them are quite satisfied with what they have. The most important and sincere desire, it turned out, was simply to have good health in order to do what I love.
Read a fairy tale The most precious thing not only interesting, but also educational for children of any age. It is in childhood that such a concept as life values ​​begins to form, what is important and what is secondary. The fairy tale teaches that the basis of all blessings is good health. As well as knowledge, business or crafts, which can be the key to material independence and self-sufficiency. If a person has found a place in his life, he is calm, his mental and physical health is in order. People have different values ​​in life, under the influence of information sources, they have long been distorted. Modern children see their fulfillment only in material values. It is unlikely that in a letter to Santa Claus a child will write that he wishes for the gift of health, knowledge, and mastering a profession. Therefore, reading such fairy tales is simply necessary for our children.
The fairy tale The most precious thing is a clear example of many proverbs: Good health is more valuable than gold, Lost money - I have lost nothing, I have lost time - I have lost a lot, I have lost health - I have lost everything, God did not give me health - neither will the doctor, Health is the most important thing to everyone, more valuable than anything else, I will be healthy and I will get money, Health You can’t buy it, Everything is great for a healthy person, What would a cow be worth if his wife were healthy, I’m not happy with a sick person or a golden bed, Money is copper, clothes are decay, and health is more valuable than anything else.

Forest Grandfather emerges from the thicket. It was Grandfather dressed in shaggy branches, spruce cones in his hair, pine cones in his beard, a gray mustache hanging to the ground, his eyes shining with green lights. “Don’t touch my trees, old man,” says the Forest Grandfather, “after all, they are all alive, they also want to live.” Better ask me what you need, I’ll give you everything.

The old man comes running home. An old woman meets him: “What are you, old man, why did you go to the forest?” You didn’t even cut down a tree? And the old man laughs: “Don’t be angry, grandma!” Let's go to the hut. Listen to what happened to me!

They entered the hut, sat down on a bench, the old man began to tell how the Forest Grandfather came out to him from the thicket and what happened next. “Now we’ll think about what we’ll ask the Forest Grandfather,” the old man says. - Do you want, grandma, to ask him for a lot, a lot of money? He will give. He is a forest owner, he knows all the treasures buried in the forest.

What are you, old man! Why do we need lots and lots of money? We have nowhere to hide them. And we will be afraid that thieves will steal them away at night. No, grandfather, we don’t need other people’s money. We have enough of our own. “Well, do you want,” the old man says, “let’s ask for a large, large herd of cows and sheep?” We will graze them in the meadow.

Come to your senses, grandfather! What good do we need a big, big herd? We won't be able to deal with him. After all, we have a little cow, Burenushka, who gives milk, and we have six sheep who give us wool. What do we need big for?

How am I going to wash them? And it’s scary to think about! I don’t need new sundresses, my three old ones are enough for me.

The old man sighed: “Oh, woman, I’m in trouble with you!” You don't want anything. - Oh, grandfather, you and I feel bad too. I couldn’t imagine anything! “Well, okay,” the old man says, “The morning is wiser than the evening.” Maybe we'll think of something.

They went to bed, and in the morning the cheerful old man gets up: “I,” says the grandmother, “know what to ask the Forest Grandfather!” I got dressed and went into the forest.

He comes to a familiar clearing - and the Forest Grandfather meets him, dressed in shaggy branches, spruce cones in his hair, pine cones in his beard, a gray mustache hanging to the ground, his eyes shining with green lights.

Well, - he says, - have you thought, old man, what do you want from me? - I thought about it. - the old man answers, - we don’t need wealth. no livestock or other unnecessary goods. This is not the most precious thing in the world!

So what do you want? - Forest Grandfather asks. And the old man answers: “Do this so that our knife and spinning wheel never break, and so that our hands are always healthy; Then, everything we need, my grandmother and I will earn it ourselves.

Okay, you, old man, came up with an idea, - Forest Grandfather says, - let it be your way. They agreed, said goodbye, and our old man went home

And he and the old woman lived as before: the old man weaves baskets, the old woman spins wool, knits stockings and a mitten... They both work. That's what they feed on. They have everything they need. And they live well, happily!
