ADAMOVIČOVÁ, Nicola
Bachelor thesis deals with a musical fairy tale interpreted for children of preschool age. At the beginning, terms related to the given topic were briefly defined. Dramatic education was also mentioned, thanks to the methods of which musical fairy tales were presented to children of preschool age. After that, the preschool age itself and educational areas from the Framework Educational Program for preschool education were defined. The practical part consists of two main research questions, the answers to which were ascertained using qualitative research, using the methods of open coding and structured interview. An important role was played by the dramatization of a musical fairy tale, during which the selected respondents actively observed the reactions of preschool children. An individual structured interview was conducted with each respondent. These interviews were then categorized and analyzed using open coding. The qualitative research shows that the children liked the interpreted musical fairy tale and that all the educational areas from the RVP PV related to the given topic were also fulfilled.

Zdeňková Kroužková, Pavlína ; Floriánková, Marcela (advisor) ; Kosheleva, Svetlana (referee)
Introduction: We have still too little information on the diagnostic, therapeutic procedures and nutritional risks of eating disorders in preschool children. Picky or evasive eating behavior can significantly affect the health and quality of life not only of the child, but also of his parents. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to identify possible risk factors that contribute to the development of eating disorders in preschool children. Methods: This is a questionnaire-type research work, carried out on individual cases, in which 21 preschool children with a psychiatrist-confirmed eating disorder were followed and then compared with a group of healthy children, paired by age and gender. The results were statistically processed in the STATISTIKA 12 software and MS EXCEL. Sample: The research group consisted of 21 children with eating disorders, a control group of 22 healthy children, paired by age and gender with the research group. Participants were selected using a simple deliberate selection based on availability and voluntariness. Results: The most significant risk factors, that may contribute to eating disorders (ED) in preschool children, were shorter period of exclusive breastfeeding, lower maternal weight gain during pregnancy, and psychiatric illness in the family. Mothers of children with ED...

Balancing openness in parents' communication with young children
Večeřová, Eliška ; Presslerová, Pavla (advisor) ; Viktorová, Ida (referee)
The thesis aims to explore a phenomenon observed among some contemporary parents: openness in communication with their young children is an important value for them, but on several topics they hesitate whether it is also appropriate in this case or modify it in some way. Based on a qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews with parents of preschool children, the work provides a concrete description of how parents balance their openness in communication about sex, Baby Jesus, death and war, relationships and emotions, as well as in parenting. Subsequently, it presents the common patterns of this balancing across communication topics, describes the motivations, boundaries and barriers to parents' openness in communication, and shows the role of the parent's experience and factors on the child's side. It also describes interpersonal balancing with partners, grandparents and in the context of society. KEYWORDS open communication, balancing openness, parents, preschool children, communication about sex, communication about death, communication about relationships and emotions, open communication in upbringing, upbringing
