AWAKENING POSITIVE EMOTIONS AND FRIENDLY BEHAVIOR IN CHILDREN THROUGH ARTISTIC MURALS AT PRESCHOOLS
Abstract
Nurturing positive emotions and forming friendly behavior in children is an important goal,
contributing to the comprehensive development of personality right from the early years of life. The article
identifies that artistic murals not only have decorative value but are also visual and vivid educational
tools. Murals with familiar images, harmonious colors and positive content can convey messages of
love, sharing, cooperation and respect. These spaces affect children’s emotions and perceptions, thereby
affecting their behavior in daily communication. The article will analyze the theory and synthesize practical
experience at home and abroad, the role of art in emotional education, and at the same time provide
orientations for designing murals suitable for the psychological characteristics of preschool children to
contribute to building a friendly, emotional and humane educational environment in preschools today.
The research results can contribute to orienting preschools in investing in building art spaces to serve the
goal of developing emotions and personality for children.
