Abstract

The article describes a fragment of an experimental program aimed at developing responsible fatherhood and increasing the level of competence of modern fathers in matters of development of the cognitive sphere of preschool children. Based on the results of research by scientists in the field of cognitive development of personality, we tend to understand cognitive development as a complex, complex phenomenon that includes the development of such mental cognitive processes as perception, thinking, attention, imagination, which are different forms of human orientation, both in the surrounding reality and both in itself and those regulating its activities. Considering cognitive development as a process of transition from ignorance to knowledge, and relying on the conclusion of scientists that cognitive development is the result of the sociocultural development of a subject that has biological foundations and prerequisites, and also having analyzed the age characteristics, capabilities and patterns of cognitive development of the individual on basic levels of ontogenesis, as the most important condition for the optimal cognitive development of preschool children, we identify the family and cognitively oriented contacts with children purposefully organized by parents. Our research indicates that not all parents are focused on providing comprehensive conditions for the full cognitive development of their children. Based on the conclusion made and working in the mode of innovative activities on the problem of responsible fatherhood, as one of the basic topics of our developmental program of psychological and pedagogical support for the process of formation of responsible fatherhood among modern parents, we will highlight the topic “The Role of the Family in the Cognitive Development of Preschool Children,” which is not oriented only to develop in fathers a system of knowledge in the field of specific development of the cognitive sphere of preschool children, but also a system of skills and abilities to effectively interact with their children, which will optimize the process of cognitive development of their children, which, from our point of view, will contribute more conscious and responsible implementation by fathers of their social role of “parent”
