| Description | The present paper describes educational possibilities of art activities in preschool education which correspond to the contemporary priorities of preschool instruction. It presents the goals and aims of an action research which was conducted in kindergartens. Through non-traditional art activity, the educational opportunities were examined, focusing on an analysis of their procedures; concrete reflexions of the individual activities were confronted. The research resuls were designed to support the real changes in kindergartens, to document the contribution of art creation and to provide arguments for personality-oriented education in preschool instruction. |
