EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF THE PRESCHOOL CHILD

Abstract

The article examines the psychological and pedagogical mistakes of parents and other significant socializers that hinder the formation of the emotional well-being of a preschool child. A comprehensive program of psychological correction of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the intellectual and emotional – volitional sphere as factors of emotional well-being of a preschooler is proposed. The subject of the study is ambivalence, social emotional inversion, and a decrease in the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of attention, memory, and thinking. The study points to the disharmonious role of ambivalence of the emotional sphere and inversion in the formation of deviations from the norm of the development of the emotional-volitional sphere of the child. The means of psychological correction of the characteristic features of a child with ambivalence and inversion of emotions are offered: anxiety, difficulty of choice, narrowness of interests, violations of personal development. The program of psychological correction of ambivalence and inversion of emotions of preschoolers helps to optimize the development of the cognitive sphere of the child. The effectiveness of correctional work is achieved through the use of the metaphor method of fairy tales, the playing of the plots of the interaction of fairy-tale characters, the projection of the ideas of fairy-tale stories on the children’s experience of life.
