Abstract
The article presents an empirical study of the emotional intelligence formation of preschool children. Currently, there are not many studies devoted to the emotional intelligence of preschooler children. Researchers often limit themselves only to determining the presence of this concept of emotional intelligence, which clearly does not reflect its structural components. It is also noted that some researchers focus on studying the features of the emotional sphere in preschool children, and some study the development of understanding emotions in preschool children. The most interesting and significant studies in the emotional sphere in preschool children are considered. We made conclusions on the level of development of emotional intelligence of preschoolers using the following methods: questionnaire for educators, projective methods of M. A. Nguyen: "completion: the world of things - the world of people - the world of emotions", "three wishes", "what - why - how". With the help of these techniques, we determined the indicators of emotions of preschool children. Having organized educational classes, we found that it is possible to see the positive dynamics of the emotional intelligence of preschool children.
