Abstract

Patriotic education is a vital component in shaping the civic consciousness and identity of the younger generation. This task becomes particularly relevant during preschool childhood, a period when fundamental moral and value orientations are formed. The article examines the significance of instilling patriotism in older preschool children based on historical traditions as a cornerstone of national and cultural education. Special attention is given to the role of historical traditions in nurturing a love for one’s homeland, respect for its culture, customs, and heroic past. The use of national symbols, folklore, fairy tales, legends, and stories about prominent historical figures in the educational process is emphasized as a means of fostering positive emotional attitudes towards the country, which serve as the foundation for the development of patriotic feelings. The study explores the impact of integrating traditional elements (folk festivals, rituals, works of art) into various forms of educational activities, such as games, theatrical performances, excursions, discussions, and creative assignments. This integration broadens children's understanding of the history and culture of their homeland, cultivates interest in national heritage, and fosters a sense of pride in their country. The article also highlights the importance of cooperation between preschools and parents in fostering patriotism. Involving families in joint events dedicated to traditions and history ensures deeper internalization of patriotic values by children and strengthens intergenerational bonds. The necessity of a systematic approach to organizing educational work is substantiated, emphasizing the integration of patriotic education elements into all educational domains and the adaptation of methodologies to the age and individual characteristics of children. Practical recommendations are provided for utilizing historical traditions in the patriotic upbringing of older preschoolers. Such approaches are shown to contribute to the development of civic consciousness, a sense of unity with the national community, and a readiness to preserve cultural heritage.
