The tasks of theatrical education in the early childhood education and examples of their implementation

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on theatrical education in early childhood education. Theatre prepared for children and theatre prepared by children are close to a drama game whose contributionto child development is acknowledged by psychologists. With everything in play, games as well as conventional and symbolic theatre, one might assume that by taking part in dramagames, a child acquires and practices abilities to interpret symbolic content that is present in a theatrical performance. A theatrical performance is meant as a creative process whosevalues are language and communication. Therefore, the combination of voice, gestures, mime, pauses or silence builds forms of expression suitable for employment in the teaching process.Thus, it is not surprising that the theatre and play can be easily linked together, woven into one entity. In the Polish context, it may be significant to project teachers’ recent theatrical and drama activities throughout the methodology of Jan Dorman, the creator of the theatrical movement called the theatre of play.
