Childhood is a time of active development when children learn to walk, talk, play and communicate with their peers and adults. In preschool age, the foundation of many skills and abilities is formed that will be useful to the child in the future.
Preschool education is the first stage of education, which begins at the age of 3-6 years and ends at the age of 7 years. It occupies a special place in the lives of children, since it is a key period in the development of the child:
* Speech development. Children in preschool age actively use speech to communicate with people around them and construct their thoughts. At this age, children also improve their grammar and pronunciation of the language. * Coordination of movements. At the age of 4 to 5 years, children begin to actively develop motor skills of their fingers and hands. At this time, they master the skills of drawing, modeling, needlework and other types of creativity. * Intellectual development. It is also important for preschoolers to learn new things and develop their minds through games, logic problems and other activities.
In preschool education, both educational and developmental activities are important, as well as play and communication with peers and adults, which help children socialize and develop their communication skills.
