The topic of this dissertation was inspired by my personal interest for music pedagogy which started during my music education as a violinist. Motivated by belief that early years are the key ones for development of creative thinking, especially in music, I decided to explore how, why and in which ways can children be taught nursery rhymes and children songs. This dissertation discusses Teaching nursery thymes and children’s songs to children of early pre-school age. It assesses the influence/impact of music and the ways of methodical teaching of nursey rhymes and children’s songs for the pre-school aged children. The topic of this dissertation is Teaching nursery thymes and children’s songs to children of early pre-school age. The aim of this dissertation is to showcase methodically well designed and evidencebased ways of teaching nursery rhymes and songs to pre-school aged children. Elaboration of the topic is divided in two parts: Nursery rhymes and songs. Nursery rhymes part includes types of nursey rhymes, value of nursery rhymes in educational context, teaching nursery rhymes and methodical approaches. Part two, Songs, includes children’s songs, songs for children which include all the parts of a musical piece, teaching songs and methodical approaches. Observations and findings are the result of research of the relevant literature which provides creative and methodically designed approaches of teaching nursery rhymes and songs to children of pre-school age.
