摘要:The aim of the present study is to develop concept cartoons for preschool children and to determine the reflections in the application process of these cartoons. The study was performed with 25 preschool teachers, 10 university lecturers and 76 preschool children in 2011-2012 spring educational term in Çayeli region of Rize province. Within the framework of the study, five concept cartoons were developed. They were called as; “Aliş’s Bag”, “Monkey Kiki’s Experiment”, “Aliş’s Table”, “Boni at the Greengrocer’s” and “Little Bear Boni is at the Sandpool”. The concept cartoons were developed in three stages as: planning, implementing and evaluating. In the development process, the concept cartoons were revised with the feedback coming both from informal interviews performed with university lecturers and applied evaluation forms. Having finalized the materials, during the main application phase it was determined that the children listened the instructions carefully, they put forward their ideas enthusiastically, they liked the visuals. The defined results might arise from fortification effect of the concept cartoons over self-expression skills of the children.
