The relevance of the subject of the article. Recently, the question of the relationship between creative development and artistic and aesthetic education has become relevant. Although the issues of the artistic and aesthetic development of preschool children were elaborated in the Soviet period, researchers continue to talk about a decrease in the creative activity of modern children. The article offers one of the ways to develop children’s creativity, based on the interaction of the family and the kindergarten.

Description of the research progress. The concepts of interaction between a child and a significant adult, the unity of communication and activity, and the provisions of the dialogical approach on the equal mutual influence of the subjects of dialogue were combined at the theoretical level. These provisions formed the basis of a predictive model of pedagogical support for child-adult interaction in the process of artistic creativity, constructed by the author. It made possible to identify its components and stages of the content block.

Research results. As a result of the study, a predictive model of pedagogical support for child-adult interaction in the process of artistic creation was designed.

Conclusion. The development of creative activity in interaction with the parent will be most effective in preschool childhood. Motivation for joint activities with the parent is extremely important for the child, especially when the child receives a positive experience of creativity, and the senior preschool age is sensitive for the formation of an attitude towards creativity and towards oneself as a creative person. To smooth and harmonize child-adult interaction in creative activity, it is reasonable to use pedagogical support for child-adult interaction.

Relevance. The problems of aesthetic education of preschool children are caused by the increasing need of society for creative personalities. Musical art most effectively contributes to the development of a holistic, versatile and developed personality, the formation of its cultural potential, as well as needs and interests, therefore it should be one of the fundamental components of modern education. The article presents the results of a theoretical study and practical testing of the problem of the formation of musical and aesthetic ideas in children of senior preschool age.

The aim of the study is to develop a system of performing activities for preschoolers, which ensures the formation of their musical and aesthetic ideas. The methodological basis of the study was a culturological approach that determines the development of a pedagogical model of the aesthetic development of a personality, which ensures activity and independence in activity; the principle of cultural conformity, which acts as a special pedagogical technique for acquiring knowledge by activity, in the process of mastering musical culture.

Research progress. Experimental work was carried out with chilren of senior preschool age (6–7 years old) in the village of Podgorodnyaya Pokrovka, Orenburg region. The experiment consisted of three stages, within which we identified the existing levels of musical and aesthetic representations in children of senior preschool age, implemented the pedagogical conditions for the formation of musical and aesthetic representations in children by means of performing activities, and tested the effectiveness of pedagogical conditions.

The practical significance consists in determining the content of performing activities of older preschool children in preschool education, which ensures the positive dynamics of the formation of musical and aesthetic ideas; structured pedagogical diagnostics of musical and aesthetic ideas of children of senior preschool age.

The results of the study can be used by teachers of preschool educational organizations and institutions of additional education, students of pedagogical universities and students of pedagogical colleges; useful in the development of educational programs for preschool and additional education.

Conclusion. The system of formation of musical and aesthetic ideas in children of senior preschool age in performing activities is determined by a special set of pedagogical conditions: determining the content of musical and performing activities of children of senior preschool age; provision of a creative musical and educational environment in a preschool educational organization that promotes the formation of musical and aesthetic ideas in children; organization of interaction with the parents of pupils on the formation of their musical and aesthetic ideas.
