Tereshechka is a Russian folk tale that has attracted the attention of children for many years. A boy, an avid fisherman, lives there with a couple of old people. To avoid getting into trouble, he does this in a boat in the middle of the river. Will the evil witch be able to kidnap the boy? What tricks is she ready to use, how will the witch have to pay for her deceit? Find out in the fairy tale whether Tereshechka will be able to return to her grandparents. It teaches foresight, intelligence, courage and the ability not to lose heart in difficult situations.

The old man and the old woman had no children. They lived a century, but did not have children.

So they made a little block, wrapped it in a swaddle, and began to rock and cradle it:
- Go to sleep, go to sleep, child Tereshechka, -

All the swallows are sleeping
And the killer whales are sleeping,
And the martens sleep
And the foxes are sleeping,
To our Tereshechka
They tell me to sleep!

They rocked him like that, rocked him and rocked him to sleep, and instead of a block, his son Tereshechka began to grow - a real berry. The boy grew and grew up and came to his senses. The old man made him a shuttle, painted it white, and the merry people painted it red.

So Tereshechka got into the shuttle and said: “Shuttle, shuttle, sail far away.”

Shuttle, shuttle, sail away. The shuttle sailed far, far away. Tereshechka began to catch fish, and his mother began to bring him milk and cottage cheese. He will come to the shore and call: “Tereshechka, my son, swim, swim to the shore, I brought you something to eat and drink.”

The witch found out about it. She came to the shore and called in a terrible voice:

Tereshechka, my son,

I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka recognized that it was not his mother’s voice and said:

Shuttle, shuttle, sail far away,
It’s not my mother calling me.

Then the witch ran to the forge and ordered the blacksmith to reforge her throat so that her voice would become like Tereshechka’s mother.

The blacksmith reforged her throat. The witch again came to the bank and sang in a voice exactly like her dear mother:

Tereshechka, my son,
Swim, swim to the shore,
I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka identified himself and swam to the shore. The witch grabbed him, put him in a bag and ran.

She brought it to the hut on chicken legs and told her daughter Alenka to turn on the stove hotter and fry Tereshechka.

And she herself went to get some money again. Here Alenka has heated the stove hot and hot and says to Tereshechka:

Lie down on the shovel.

He sat down on a shovel, spread out his arms and legs, and couldn’t fit into the oven.

And she told him:

I didn't lie down like that.
- Yes, I don’t know how - show me how...
- And as cats sleep, as dogs sleep, so you lie down.
- And you lie down yourself and teach me.

Alenka sat down on the shovel, and Tereshechka pushed her into the stove and closed the damper. And he himself left the hut and climbed a tall oak tree.

The witch came running, opened the stove, pulled out her daughter Alenka, ate her, gnawed the bones. Then she went out into the yard and began to roll and roll on the grass.

Rolls and rolls around and says:

And Tereshechka answers her from the oak tree:
- Ride and lie around, having eaten Alenka’s meat!

And the witch:
- Aren’t those leaves making noise?

And herself again:
- I’ll ride, I’ll lie around, having eaten Tereshechka’s meat.

And Tereshechka is all hers:
- Ride and lie around, having eaten Alenka’s meat!

The witch looked and saw him on a tall oak tree.

She rushed to gnaw the oak. She gnawed and gnawed - she broke out two front teeth, ran to the forge: - Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me two iron teeth.

The blacksmith forged two teeth for her. The witch returned and began to gnaw the oak tree again. She chewed and chewed and broke two lower teeth. She ran to the blacksmith: - Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me two more iron teeth.

The blacksmith forged two more teeth for her. The witch returned and began gnawing the oak tree again. He gnaws - only splinters fly. And the oak is already cracking and staggering. What to do here?

Tereshechka sees geese and swans flying. He asks them:
- My geese, my swans!
Take me on your wings

And the geese-swans answer:
- Ha-ha, they are still flying after us - they are hungrier than us, they will take you.

And the witch will gnaw and gnaw, look at Tereshechka, lick her lips - and again get to work...

Another herd is flying. Tereshechka asks...
- My geese, my swans!
Take me on your wings
Take it to your father, to your mother!

And the geese-swans answer:
- Ha-ha, a pinched gosling is flying after us, he will pick you up and carry you. But the witch already has little left: the oak tree is about to fall.

A pinched gosling is flying. Tereshechka asks him:
- You are my goose-swan.
Take me, put me on your wings, take me to my father, to my mother.

The pinched gosling took pity, put Tereshechka on his wings, perked up and flew, carrying him home.

They flew to the hut and sat down on the grass.

And the old woman baked pancakes to remember Tereshechka and said:
- This is for you, old man, damn it, and this is for me, damn it.

And Tereshechka under the window:
- What about me?

The old woman heard and said:
- Look, old man, who’s asking for a pancake there?

The old man came out, saw Tereshechka, brought him to the old woman - a hug ensued!

And the pinched gosling was fattened, watered, and released into the wild, and from then on it began to flap its wings widely, fly ahead of the herd and remember Tereshechka.

About the fairy tale

The fairy tale "Tereshechka" is a Russian folk tale for young children. She will introduce the kids to the brave boy Teryokha, who escaped from the witch thanks to his ingenuity. The story will be interesting to young readers with its simple content, good ending, and rhyming lines.

The main characters of the story are an old man and an old woman who had no children. One day they took the block, wrapped it in a diaper and began to lull it to sleep like a little child, while humming a lullaby. In the song, the old people affectionately called the imaginary child Tereshechka and asked him to fall asleep along with the birds and other animals. Surprisingly, the block soon began to turn into a nice boy, Tereshka.

The little son grew up well, became smart and nice. Soon his father made him a shuttle and oars, the boy sat in it and, saying the words he had learned to make the boat float, went fishing. So Tereshka began to fish, and his mother carried him food. He will come to the shore, call his little son, and he will swim to his mother’s voice. The old woman will feed her son, give him a change of clothes, take the fish, and Tereshechka will go fishing again.

The witch heard about Tereshka, came up to the shore and began calling to the boy in a rude voice. The guy recognized that it was not his mother calling him and ordered the shuttle to continue sailing. Angry, the witch quickly ran to the forge so that the master could make her voice thin, like Mother Tereshka’s. The blacksmith fulfilled the sorceress’s request and she ran to the shore again. The witch sang there in a thin voice, inviting the boy to the shore. He did not recognize the insidious plan, swam to the shore, where the witch grabbed him and put him in a bag. The evil old woman brought Tereshka to her home and ordered her daughter Alyonka to light the stove in order to fry the boy.

While the witch went hunting, Alyonka lit the stove, took a shovel and ordered the boy to sit on it. Clever Tereshka realized what was happening and began to lie on the shovel incorrectly so as not to fit into the oven. The witch’s daughter asked him to lie down the way animals sleep, that is, curl up on a shovel. Teryosha pretended that he did not understand Alyonka’s words and invited her to lie down on the shovel. As soon as it climbed onto the shovel, the boy quickly shoved it into the oven and closed the damper. He himself climbed a tall tree and began to wait for the witch.

When the sorceress returned home, she quickly opened the oven, took out the meat and ate it with pleasure, only the bones remained. Having eaten, the witch went out into the yard and began to say how she had had enough of Teryokha’s meat. And the boy from the tree tells her that the witch ate Alyonka’s meat, not his. At first the evil old woman thought it was the leaves rustling, but when the boy repeated what he had said, the witch understood what was happening. She began to gnaw the tree, but only broke her teeth. She quickly went to the blacksmith for new teeth, who forged them for the sorceress. She started gnawing on the trunk again and suddenly, she would knock down a branchy oak tree and get Teryokha. The boy began to ask the geese to take him to his parents. The majestic birds disagreed. Only the weakest goose volunteered to help. He brought Tereshka to his parents, and they were happy to fatten him up and set him free. They themselves began to live better than before.

The old man and the old woman had no children. They lived a century, but did not have children.

So they made a little block, wrapped it in a swaddle, and began to rock and cradle it:

Sleep, go to sleep, child Tereshechka, -

All the swallows are sleeping

And the killer whales are sleeping,

And the martens sleep

And the foxes are sleeping,

To our Tereshechka

They tell me to sleep!

They rocked him like that, rocked him and rocked him to sleep, and instead of a block, his son Tereshechka began to grow - a real berry.

The boy grew and grew up and came to his senses. The old man made him a shuttle, painted it white, and the merry people painted it red.

Tereshechka got into the shuttle and said:

Shuttle, shuttle, sail away.

The shuttle sailed far, far away. Tereshechka began to catch fish, and his mother began to bring him milk and cottage cheese.

He will come to the shore and call:

Tereshechka, my son,

I brought you something to eat and drink.

The witch found out about it. She came to the shore and called in a terrible voice:

Tereshechka, my son,

Swim, swim to the shore,

I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka recognized that it was not his mother’s voice and said:

Shuttle, shuttle, sail away.

It’s not my mother calling me.

Then the witch ran to the forge and ordered the blacksmith to reforge her throat so that her voice would become like Tereshechka’s mother.

The blacksmith reforged her throat. The witch again came to the bank and sang in a voice exactly like her dear mother:

Tereshechka, my son,

Swim, swim to the shore,

I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka identified himself and swam to the shore. The witch grabbed him, put him in a bag and ran.

She brought it to the hut on chicken legs and told her daughter Alyonka to turn on the stove hotter and fry Tereshechka.

And she herself went to get some money again.

Here Alenka has heated the stove hot and hot and says to Tereshechka:

Lie down on the shovel.

He sat down on a shovel, spread out his arms and legs, and couldn’t fit into the oven.

And she told him:

I didn't lie down like that.

Yes, I don’t know how - show me how...

And as cats sleep, as dogs sleep, so you lie down.

And you lie down yourself and teach me.

Alyonka sat down on the shovel, and Tereshechka pushed her into the stove and closed the damper. And he himself left the hut and climbed a tall oak tree.

The witch came running, opened the stove, pulled out her daughter Alenka, ate her, gnawed the bones.

Then she went out into the yard and began to roll and roll on the grass.

Rolls and rolls around and says:

And Tereshechka answers her from the oak tree:

Ride and lie around, having eaten Alyonkin’s meat!

And the witch:

Is it the leaves that are making noise?

And herself again:

I'll ride, I'll lie around, having eaten Tereshechka's meat.

And Tereshechka is all hers:

Ride and roll around, having eaten Alenka’s meat!

The witch looked and saw him on a tall oak tree. She rushed to gnaw the oak. She gnawed and gnawed, broke two front teeth and ran to the forge:

Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me two iron teeth.

The blacksmith forged two teeth for her.

The witch returned and began to gnaw the oak tree again. She chewed and chewed and broke two lower teeth. She ran to the blacksmith:

Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me two more iron teeth.

The blacksmith forged two more teeth for her.

The witch returned and began gnawing the oak tree again. He gnaws - only splinters fly. And the oak is already cracking and staggering.

What to do here? Tereshechka sees geese and swans flying.

He asks them:

My geese, my swans!

Take me on your wings

Take it to your father, to your mother!

And the geese-swans answer:

Ha-ha, they are still flying after us - they are hungrier than us, they will take you.

And the witch will gnaw and gnaw, look at Tereshechka, lick her lips - and again get to work...

Another herd is flying. Tereshechka asks...

My geese, my swans!

Take me on your wings

Take it to your father, to your mother!

And the geese-swans answer:

Ha-ha, a pinched gosling is flying after us, he will pick you up and carry you.

And the witch already has little left. An oak tree is about to fall.

A pinched gosling is flying. Tereshechka asks him:

You are my goose-swan! Take me, put me on your wings, take me to my father, to my mother.

The pinched gosling took pity, put Tereshechka on his wings, perked up and flew, carrying him home.

They flew to the hut and sat down on the grass.

And the old woman baked pancakes to remember Tereshechka and said:

This is for you, old man, damn it, and this is for me, damn it.

And Tereshechka under the window:

What about me?

The old woman heard and said:

Look, old man, who's asking for a pancake over there?

The old man came out, saw Tereshechka, brought him to the old woman - a hug ensued!

And the pinched gosling was fattened, watered, released into the wild, and from then on he began to flap his wings widely, fly ahead of the herd and remember Tereshechka...

Life was bad for the old man and the old woman! They lived a century, but did not have children; from a young age they were still getting by this way and that; They are both old, there is no one to give them a drink, and they grieve and cry. So they made a block, wrapped it in a swaddle, put it in a cradle, began to rock it and cradle it - and instead of a block, son Tereshechka, a real berry, began to grow in diapers!

The boy grew and grew up and came to his senses. His father made him a shuttle. Tereshechka went fishing; and his mother began to bring him milk and cottage cheese. It used to come to the shore and call:

One day his mother told him:

Son, darling! Be careful, the witch Chewi-liha is watching over you; Don't fall into her clutches.

She said and went. And Chuvilikha came to the bank and called in a terrible voice:

Tereshechka, my son! Swim, swim to the shore; I, mother, came and brought milk.

And Tereshechka recognized it and said:

Chuvilikha heard, ran, found the document and got herself a voice, like Tereshechka’s mother.

Tereshechka, my son, swim, swim to the shore. Tereshechka heard and said:

Closer, closer, my little shuttle! This is my mother's voice.

His mother fed him, gave him something to drink, and let him go after the fish again.

The witch Chuvilikha came and sang in a learned voice, just like her dear mother. Tereshechka identified himself and drove up; she grabbed him in a bag and rushed off.

She rushed into the hut on chicken legs and told her daughter to fry him; and she herself, raising her hats, went back to the scavenger hunt.

Tereshechka was no fool, he didn’t take offense to the girl, he put her in the oven to roast in his place, and he himself climbed a tall oak tree.

Chuvilikha came running, jumped into the hut, got drunk and ate, went out into the yard, rolled around and said:

I'll ride, I'll lie around, having eaten Tereshechka's meat! And he shouts to her from the oak tree:

Ride, lie around, witch, after eating your daughter’s meat! She heard, raised her head, spread her eyes in all directions - there was no one! She dragged it out again:

I'll ride, I'll lie around, having eaten Tereshechka's meat! And he answers:

Ride, lie around, witch, after eating your daughter’s meat! She got scared, looked and saw him on a tall oak tree. She jumped up and rushed to the blacksmith:

Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me an axe. The blacksmith forged an ax and said:

Don’t cut with the edge, but cut with the butt.

She obeyed, knocked and knocked, chopped and chopped, did nothing. She fell to a tree, sank her teeth into it, and the tree began to crack.

Geese-swans fly across the sky; Tereshechka sees trouble, sees geese-swans, prayed to them, began to beg them:

Geese-swans, take me, put me on your wings, bring me to my father, to my mother; there you will be fed and watered. And the geese-swans answer:

Ka-ha! There is another herd flying, hungrier than us, it will take you and carry you.

And the witch gnaws, only the chips fly, and the oak cracks and staggers. Another herd is flying. Tereshechka shouts again:

Swan geese! Take me, put me on wings, carry me to my father, to my mother; they will feed and drink you there!

Ka-ha! - the geese answer. - A pinched gosling is flying behind us, he will take you and carry you.

The gosling does not fly, and the tree cracks and staggers. The witch will gnaw and gnaw, look at Tereshechka - lick her lips and get down to business again; It's about to fall on her!

Fortunately, a pinched gosling flies, flaps its wings, and Tereshechka asks him, pleases him:

You are my goose-swan, take me, put me on your wings, bring me to my father, to my mother; there they will feed you, give you something to drink and wash you with clean water.

The pinched gosling took pity, offered his wings to Tereshechka, perked up and flew with him.

We flew up to our dear father’s window and sat down on the grass. And the old woman baked pancakes, called the guests, remembered Tereshechka and said:

This is for you, guest, this is for you, old man, and this is a pancake for me! And Tereshechka under the window responds:

Look, old man, who's asking for a pancake over there?

The old man came out, saw Tereshechka, grabbed him, brought him to his mother - a hug began!

And the pinched goose was fattened, watered, and released into the wild, and from then on it began to flap its wings widely, fly ahead of everyone and remember Tereshechka.

The old man and the old woman had no children. They lived a century, but did not have children.
So they made a little block, wrapped it in a swaddle, and began to rock and cradle it:
-? Go to sleep, go to sleep, child Tereshechka, -

All the swallows are sleeping
??And the killer whales are sleeping,
??And the martens sleep,
??And the foxes sleep,
??To our Tereshechka
??They tell me to go to sleep!

They rocked him like that, rocked him and rocked him to sleep, and instead of a block, his son Tereshechka began to grow - a real berry.
The boy grew and grew up and came to his senses. The old man made him a shuttle, painted it white, and the merry people painted it red.
Tereshechka got into the shuttle and said:

The shuttle sailed far, far away. Tereshechka began to catch fish, and his mother began to bring him milk and cottage cheese.
He will come to the shore and call:

Tereshechka, my son,

I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka will hear her mother’s voice from afar and will swim to the shore. The mother will take the fish, feed him, give him something to drink, change his shirt and belt, and let him go fishing again.
The witch found out about it. She came to the shore and called in a terrible voice:

Tereshechka, my son,
Swim, swim to the shore,
I brought you something to eat and drink.

Tereshechka recognized that it was not his mother’s voice and said:

It’s not my mother calling me.

And herself again:
-? I’ll ride, I’ll lie around, having eaten Tereshechka’s meat.
And Tereshechka is all hers:
-?Roll around, eat Alenkin’s meat!
The witch looked and saw him on a tall oak tree. She rushed to gnaw the oak. She gnawed and gnawed, broke two front teeth and ran to the forge:
-?Blacksmith, blacksmith! Forge me two iron teeth.
The blacksmith forged two teeth for her.
