Summary/Abstract: Bulgarian children's folklore abounds in its diversity with children's songs, lullabies, sayings and proverbs, which have a special function in the educational and moral narrative. Thanks to the Bulgarian children's and youth literature, folklore is discussed as an expression of the children's world in its purity and authenticity. Folklore has a serious role in the construction of literary works, as it has the function of including and bringing together. Based on folk beliefs and superstitions, it is spiritually close to collective ideas and for this reason it is able to satisfy the psychological needs of the children's emotional world. Folklore is the wealth of a nation and thanks to it, the essence of creativity in everyday life and the soul of a nation is revealed.
