Why do we need children’s games?
Children’s literature takes a special place in the examples of rich folk art with centuries-old history. Folklore samples are a valuable resource for educating children of different ages. Mr. Vasif Talibov, the Chairman of the Supreme Majlis of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, who takes into account the collection, study and publication of folklore samples in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, said: “These samples of folk art, which are a worthy contribution to ancient and modern civilization, are demonstrating in our modern era, concentrating on our national characteristics, traditions, and everyday life”. From this point of view, examples of folk art reflect the whole aspirations of the people, their wishes, desires and ideals, the outlook of life and the world, and the ideas about good and evil, beauty and ugliness are the main issues.
In these examples of folk art, the thoughts and interests about children who are our future and representatives of the new generation are in the center of attention. Tales and riddles, proverbs, anecdotes and others, all of them have ideas about exemplary child upbringing and child's world. That's why oral literature is a source of moral nutrition for younger children than adults. These examples of children's imagination and thought, thinking, and interests are creating new worlds, new perspectives and imaginary horizons.
