Summary/Abstract: This study constitutes a review of selected opinions and concepts concerning the thinking and learning processes of children in pre‑ school and early school age. The author has made an attempt to draw attention to the need to discuss alternative strategies of developing learning potential and – as a consequence – to create a vision of thinking which is critical and reflection‑ based. The awareness of lifelong learning allows for undertaking unconventional professional actions which encompass developing skills of setting learning goals, place, and time, creating suitable conditions, and perfecting context‑based understanding. Sadly, the discussion on unconventional system transformations concerning early childhood education and teachers’ training is becoming less and less prevalent. This is why this author has carried out an analysis aiming to suggest actions which are implementation‑based (and not merely conceptual) in the area of strengthening the learning potential through the promotion of alternative educational and developmental strategies.
