The aesthetic education of preschool children is based on interrelated actions between the child and those who teaches it (tutor, parents). These actions for the baby are more manifested through the game, as the game at the bottom stage of life is the main way to communicate with the baby.
But in addition to games and direct teachings, it is very important to surround the child just beautiful things. That is, put the feeling of taste since childhood, a feeling of pleasant contemplation, beauty, so to speak, to give food for creative vision of the surrounding world. This vision concerns the interior of those places where the child is most often located (game, kindergarten, playground, home interior), as well as ways to interact with the outside world through tactile sensations, through drawings, contemplation, learning, game.

Main approaches and principles of aesthetic education
To develop aesthetic feeling in a child, the theory of aesthetic education of preschool children uses 3 main approaches:
- proposal to know the experience of aesthetic experience (the same demonstration of children's books with pictures);
- to master the applied tasks of the artistic and aesthetic direction (engage in the process to bring your child to the fact that it is beautiful: draw a picture, line, add a mosaic element, to make an application);
- give the child the opportunity to receive an art education (learning how to draw, but do not prohibit express the shape and lines to your own manner, as the baby wants).
In order to correctly form the basic principles of aesthetic education of preschool children, you need to instill theoretical knowledge of aesthetics as soon as the child comes to kindergarten. That is, from the very beginning, the child must have knowledge about the aesthetic ideal in everything: in clothes, actions, relationships, art, classes, in thoughts, in nature and so on. So, here are the principles on which the aesthetic education of preschool children is built:
- the relationship between the child and the outside world is building an educator as the chief direction of the creative and spiritual development of children;
- all the creativity who are busy children throughout the day should keep up with life itself: that is, household items, elements of the surrounding world, animals, people, their business and words - this is the material that feeds children's creativity;
- the development of variability of forms, contents, ways to state the vision of the world of the child: that is, artistic activity has the right to be any way;
- creative inclinations and abilities The teacher must identify every child through an individual approach: all the kids are different, with each child a similar, but in something different line of creative communication. As a result, each child has its own individual experience of knowledge of the image, representing one or another phenomenon, subject, object.
How does aesthetic education work in practice?
To understand how in practice the model of aesthetic education of preschool children is working, it is possible to consider its 2 main approaches:
- The task of such education lies in the instill of the theoretical presentation of a child about beauty, aesthetics, a beautiful feeling: to read the books to the baby, showing colorful pictures, together to observe the nature of the nature.
- The second task of aesthetic education is all acquired theoretical knowledge to realize in creativity, in the further statements of the child adopted by the child's consciousness, through the game, through behavior: thus there is a constant improvement in the practical skills of creative expression.
And yet, for preschoolers for children, the most important way to express acquired skills and knowledge about the world is a game. If the baby's life is colorful, rich, it is correctly developing and correctly forms its aesthetic views on the world around the world, then the games are active, funny, interesting, saturated with emotions and fantasy.
