Abstract
Embracing a wide gamut of pedagogical knowledge and experience and practiced on a daily basis through works of folk art, traditions, customs, children’s games and toys, folk pedagogy contributes to the solution of issues related to physical education and development of preschool children. The article considers the possibilities of using traditional pedagogy in the process of physical education for preschool children. Special attention is paid to folk outdoor games that stimulate children’s motor and speech activity. Skill acquisition in playing action-oriented games contributes to the formation of a value approach to a healthy lifestyle and that of self-regulation in a child’s motor sector. The author provides specific examples and recommendations on using outdoor games when working with preschool children.
