As a part of this thesis, children's response to art creation has been based on different incentives through games and didactic materials that precede children's art creation. The thesis at the very beginning describes the influence of games on relaxation, feeling of security and child's development, as well as the division and types of games. It also describes the didactic form of games, their influence on the child's visual and sensory abilities. Their distribution and didactic part of games were alos described. The thesis also explains what everything, apart from the child's potential, depends on the child's potential. Considering that the game and different didactic materials are often used when introducing children to the creative process, they were considered as part of this final thesis as a motivational aid when creating artworks. The research itself, i.e. the empirical part of the thesis, was conducted in the preschool group of Kindergarten Varaždin (Varaždin) and the older age group of Kindergarten Petrinjčica (Petrinja). The children had the opportunity to meet various motifs, incentives and art techniques. The memory game, the game of stringing different colors, puzzles, pictures and photos were used as incentives. The theme of the works of the preschool group (from 6 to 7 years old) was faces that had to be made using the technique of sketching on saucers and using pastels, while the theme of the older age group (from 5 to 6 years old) was animals that had to be painted using pastels and monotypes. At the very end of the paper, the results of the research are presented with an analysis and review. The motif of the first activity was visual, and the technique was sunken relief and painting. In the second art activity, the motif of animals was presented by using graphic and painting techniques.
