UKRAINIAN TOY AS AN ETHNO-CULTURAL MEANS OF UPBRINGING PRESCHOOL CHILDREN FROM THE FAMILIES OF ANTITERRORIST OPERATION PARTICIPANTS AND INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS

In the upbringing of preschool age children from the families of Antiterrorist operation participants and internally displaced persons, Ukrainian toys are used primarily as effective ethnocultural means of correctional and educational work, carried out to ensure successful adaptation of children to new conditions, their re-socialization. Since these children are very often reticent, they refuse to communicate with both the teacher and other children in the group, the content of such work is the creation by the educator of a positive emotional and sensual background for the child's perception of the new environment, the involuntary establishment of a communicative contact with her, encouraging the child to engage in active communicative activities with peers and adults. Folk toy is also an important means of national-patriotic education, because through manipulative actions with it, the child deepens knowledge about everyday life and features of the traditional family and social relations of Ukrainians, and accordingly expands the system of ideas about his people and his culture. Ukrainian folk toy is an effective means of aesthetic education of children, since it is a skillful example of Ukrainian decorative and applied art.
