Main subject of this master's thesis is Promotion of upbringing and education for sustainable development using research activities in meteorology. Children from the earliest age begin to explore the world around them. Kindergarten, as an istitution where most of activities are of a research character, can help them in many ways. Main purpose of using research activities with children of a preschool age is to stimulate their interest in the meaning and importance of meteorology. Preschool age is good time to lay the foundations for development of occupations, knowledge, and habits on environment protection. In terms of sustainable development that means personal development of the individual and development of democratic relations. Kindergarten plays several important roles in this development: it spreads children's knowledge of environment, stimulates development of children's love for nature and develops abilities, attitudes and skills that will enable them to live in harmony with sustainable development. Working activities conducted in kindergarten „Maslačak“ have shown that children are able to learn about the importance of meteorology and its application from an early age. Playing has many benefits for children beacause it stimulates socio-emotional development, speech development, physical development and creativity development. The role of the educator as a creative person sensitive to children's needs and ready for the role of an active participant in children's research should not be forgotten.
