Preschool age is most favorable for the development of creativity, artistic and creative abilities. One of the main means of formation and development of such abilities of senior preschool children is leisure activities, which includes works of musical, visual, decorative and folk art. However, the educational work in preschool educational institutes is not always systematic and holistic in nature, educators use only episodic and mostly traditional measures to develop of artistic and creative abilities of senior preschool children, without paying due of attention to leisure activities based on oral folk creativity as the most effective tool. To identify the level of development of artistic and creative development abilities and knowledge of folklore works, a diagnostic methodology was developed, which included practical tasks and questionnaires, which was implemented during an empirical study on the basis of the Center for Child Development – Kindergarten No. 58 in the city of Saransk, Republic of Mordovia. The monitoring was attended by 84 children aged 6-7 years. The experiment showed that the highest level of the artistic and creative development prevails in 28% (24 children), the medium level is in 54% (45 children), and the lowest level is marked in 18% (15 senior preschool children). Knowledge of oral folk creativity are mostly medium – 41% (34 children), and low levels – 41% (33 children). During the study, the author’s program “Sudarushka” was used. Testing the author’s program, based on the use of leisure activities based on folklore in the practice of preschool educational institutions, allowed to increase the level of development of artistic and creative abilities, which confirmed its effectiveness.

Abstract Early childhood education has long-lasting influences on people, and an appropriate companion toy can play an essential role in children's brain development. This paper establishes a complete framework to guide the design of intelligent companion toys for preschool children from 2 to 6 years old, which is child-centered and environment-oriented. The design process is divided into three steps: requirement confirmation, the smart design before the sale, and the iterative update after the sale. This framework considers the characteristics of children and highlights the integration of human and artificial intelligence in design. A case study is provided to prove the superiority of the new framework. In addition to enriching the research on intelligent toy design, this paper also guides for practitioners to design smart toys and helps in children's cognitive development.

<i>Enterobius vermicularis</i> is a cosmopolitan parasite of large intestine. <i>Enterobius vermicularis</i> infection is found mostly in closed human communities such as kindergartens, nurseries and orphanages. The aim of the study was to evaluate the frequency of <i>E. vermicularis</i> in preschool children from Wielkopolska Voivodeship. In addition, the aim was to determine the relationships between the gender of children, place of residence and the occurrence of enterobiasis and to define the most common symptoms of enterobiasis in infected children. There were 145 children (84 girls and 61 boys) aged 3-6 who attended kindergartens in Wielkopolskie voivodeship. Swabs from the anus area was used according to Graham’s method. The frequency of <i>E. vermicularis</i> infection in the studied children was 7.6%. There were no relationships between the gender of participants as well as the place of residence and the frequency of <i>E. vermicularis</i> infection. There was no relationship between the occurrence of symptoms of enterobiasis and <i>E. vermicularis</i> infection. The examination showed that the half of studied children infected with <i>E. vermicularis</i> had no symptoms of infection. Enterobiasis is the most common parasitosis in preschool and early childhood children. The prevalence of enterobiasis in humans is correlated with socio-environmental factors. On the basis of the presented study, it was found that in order to control the E. vermicularis infection, it would be necessary to regularly educate parents about the risks of parasitic diseases and to teach children the principles of hygiene from a young age.
