Abstract

We substantiate the necessity of taking into account cultural and educational interests of representatives of different ethnicities and cultures and acquaintance of pre-school children with the peculiarities of different peoples, interacting with people with different traditions. We describe a study of ethnic awareness of preschool children of pre-school educational institutions with a multicultural educational environment, participated by 160 preschool children in Nalchik and 49 children in Moscow. All children constantly attend preschool. The gender composition of the sample was approximately equal. Ages of children at the time of the study ranged from 5 to 8 years. For the study of ethnic awareness of preschool children in Moscow and Nalchik, we prepared author questionnaire of nine questions that reveal representations of preschool children about the different ethnic cultures, as well as detect the presence or absence of knowledge of the features of their native culture. The survey found the overall average level of ethnic awareness of preschoolers, which is characterized by correct but largely fragmented, superficial understanding of the traditions and peculiarities of different peoples, the instability of interest in the traditions and folklore of the peoples, lack of motivation in preference.
