The development of modern science and technology has completely changed the environment and public and interpersonal relationships. Natural resources are used more intensively than ever before. Human impact on nature has reached global dimensions. This means that in the future much more attention should be paid to the rational use of natural resources and it is encouraged already during the pre-school aged child's development to raise their understanding and attitude towards nature conservation. Children are open to and interested in exploring nature, learning about our national traditions and folklore heritage on the conservancy of nature and work ethics with the guidance of skilled teachers and parents. The aim of the study is to get theoretical and practical knowledge about promotion of treatment and understanding of nature conservancy by pre-school age children. Research is based on the analysis of theoretical literature and the empirical method – observation of 46 children of mixed ages (4-7 years) during the pedagogical process in Riga pre-school education establishment. During the survey on the environmental education and development of responsible attitudes of children carried out by 42 educators, the well and less well known topics were found out. We believe that raising awareness and attitude of pre-school aged children is of great importance for the public.
