As the basic unit of society, the family has undergone great changes over time. The opening of the first preschool institutions was a response to the processes of industrialization, urbanization, the increasing employment of women and the changed conditions for growing up and raising children. By including children in different educational institutions, institutional education appears and, accordingly, a childhood that gradually became institutionalized. Many thinkers and theoreticians dealt with the issues of upbringing and the features of play as a central activity that contributes to the overall development of children, and they contributed to the development of the theory and practice of early childhood education and laid the foundations for the development of society. The first thoughts about upbringing were that the child can be involved in organized activities through which he will build knowledge about the world around him. In the preschool age, the child is most sensitive to the influence of the environment, and the influences at that age (the most impressive and lasting) are of great importance for later upbringing education and personality formation in general.Early and preschool education today, both in most countries of the world and in our country, is an integral part of the educational system, and kindergarten is its basic form of implementation. The spatial and social environment of the kindergarten - by actively involving children in the learning process, along with essential interaction with other children and supporting adults - has a great influence on learning and the overall development and upbringing of the child, which is why the continuous development of the environment is one of the particularly important tasks in the organization of educational educational process of the kindergarten. The modern understanding of preschool children and institutional early upbringing and education, as a result of modern scientific research and knowledge, gave birth to new points of view and values, and the experience of kindergarten changed - from a place of institutional care, protection and education of children to kindergarten as a learning organization.
