摘要：AbstractThe article presents the results of a study conducted on a sample of 245 preschool teachers from all over Slovenia. The study examines the arts and culture status of preschool teachers’ views about preschool education in terms of the inclusion of arts and culture topics and their opinion about the implementation of the aims of arts and cultural education in the planned and operational curricula. Results show that preschool teachers do not consider spiritual, cultural and aesthetic values very important. Preschool teachers think that in kindergarten more attention should be given to the performing arts, music arts and cultural heritage. They often achieve most of the arts and cultural education aims in their work. However, they pay less attention to aims such as investigating and expressing the cultures of other nations, developing cultural identity awareness, expressing one's own culture and expressing one's own culture.
