The level of formation of senior preschool children’s elementary astronomical ideas has been determined. A system of work on the formation of senior preschool children’s elementary astronomical representations by means of fiction and oral folk art has been proposed and its effectiveness has been checked.The purpose of the research is theoretical substantiation and experimental study of the literature and folk art influence on the formation of senior preschool children’s elementary astronomical ideas. To solve this goal, the following research methods were used: analysis to determine the status and isolation of problems of astronomical education in the institution of preschool education; observing the educational process of astronomy in the institution of preschool education in order to identify its shortcomings and identify prospects for improvement; questionnaires, surveys to reveal the level of preschool children’s knowledge in astronomy; current and final control to determine the level of formation of elementary astronomical representations.
