摘要：Preschool institutions, with their program and educational areas, are oriented towards the comprehensive development of a child's personality. Art has the greatest impact on a child's development, that is, the creative activities close to artistic expression. These activities allow the perceptual and experiential expression; affect the children’s cognitive, emotional and social levels. Musical activities are encouraged with singing and playing, listening to music, through the expression and creation, exploration and movement. The way they are implemented in practice, and the results in the development of the children’s musical skills depend on the educator's competences. One of the tasks of the research was to determine the competences of music educators, while the primary goal was to explore how music education is implemented in preschool institutions. It was conducted during 2014 and 2015, with a sample of eighty educators from the Istrian region. The results of the research show that the prerequisites for the realization of musical activity exist, but indicate also the issues that are related to the question of the development of children’s musical skills and the educators’ musical competences. Carefully designed expert seminars from didactical and artistic areas of music, which will become an integral part of educators' lifelong learning is one of the ways for improving their competencies. The results of the seminar should be reflected to a greater educator's stability in the performance of music, a better understanding of musical works and the improvement of their didactical skills. This will allow a greater pleasure in the preparation and implementation of musical activity, and their training will affect high-quality early childhood education in music, which is a fundament for a successful development of musical skills.
