Abstract

We present main approaches of foreign and domestic scientists to a problem of children’s creative activity development in contemporary conditions. We analyze several definitions of “creative activity”. We substantiate the relevance of creative activity development support of younger generation based on the analysis of regulating documents in education and culture, as well as theoretical sources on a research problem. We define prerequisites and functions of creative ac-tivity. We give the definition example of “creative activity” in terms of the psychological condi-tions defining personal development of child as an indicator of successful assignment of cultural and leisure experience. Creative activity appears in inclusion of children in the creative, originative activities aimed at implementation of potential of the personality, its self-development. Creative activity extends to productive processes necessary for the quickest way out of problematic situa-tions that arise in the management environment, education and politics sectors, cultural field, in the implementation of innovation activities, as well as in the case of new forms of creative interaction practical implementation. This phenomenon is due to the enormous potential of creative activity in such social relations as “person – person”, “person – society”, “person – nature”, “person – sign systems”, “person – technology”, “person – artistic image”.
