Abstract

For children growing up today, computers are an integral and inseparable part of their life and children nowadays grow and develop alongside current flows of modern society. Also, children grow up with the Internet, mobile phones, tablets and smart phones, and there are variety of toys based on digital technology from early age. In addition to the fact that technology is advancing every day, we can not expect children to be isolated from all this, but it is our main goal to find effective methods to contribute to their intellectual development. Keeping this in mind, it is necessary to also modernize educational work in preschool institutions, since children can adopt more easily new knowledge in prescholl age. The goal of this essay is to show how significant can be use of digital tools in preschool education. Modern information and communication technology enables the engage of all senses in the process of acquisition of knowledge, develops creativity, encourages the child's natural curiosity, encourages the development of sensorimotor and perceptive abilities, creates favorable conditions for the formation of initial knowledge through practical activities. This way of working is very effective because children explore, discover and develop social interaction led by adults.The use of information and communication technologies in preschool education allows us to present information in several different ways so that we can satisfy the individual differences among children, that is, offer them text, images, audio and video, etc. In survey-based research, we came to conclusion that use of information and communication technologies in preschool education facilitates the process of perception and memorization of information with the help of vivid images, combines dynamics, sound and image, that is those factors that hold the child's attention the longest. The application of digital technology in educational work is a very big challenge that requires a lot of research and testing in practice.
