Abstract

This thesis examines the pedagogical significance of communicative games in developing vocabulary in preschool children. The study analyzes the impact of communicative games on children’s speech activity, vocabulary expansion, oral communication skills, and social interaction. It is substantiated that active participation in games, peer communication, and learning new words in a natural environment contribute to effective vocabulary development. The research findings demonstrate that systematic and purposeful use of communicative games significantly enhances children’s vocabulary. The results of the study can be effectively applied in preschool educational institutions.
