The authors propose to form in children an understanding of family, homeland, relatives, and analyze effective ways of patriotic education, methods of instilling moral values, including love for one's native countryю. Based on theoretical research and empirical data, the important role of game and vocabulary methods in the formation of patriotic education is shown.
