| description | In preschool education the process of preparing a child for the future role of a tourist is of great importance. The way attitude towards tourism and the knowledge of local history is shaped in kindergarten, will decide upon intensity and value of adult generations’ tourism. The process of initiating tourism-related activity and interest in the surrounding cultural, natural and social reality takes place mainly when children participate in field trips. The article presents excursion’s role in shaping a tourist behaviour in child’s comprehensive development. The analysis of a survey conducted among teachers and parents has been made in order to assess the respondents’opinions on the conditions and the importance of organizing trips in the development of social, cognitive, emotional and health areas of a child’s personality as well as child’s commitment and preparation for tourism. |
