SAŽETAK / ABSTRACT:

The paper analyses the role of innovative music-educational aids in pre-primary music education, with an emphasis on their potential to increase the effectiveness of the educational process and to promote the comprehensive development of children. It examines selected aids such as boomwhackers, the psychomotor parachute, the Xyloba musical building block, Montessori bells and the Chrome Music Lab app, which integrate traditional and modern approaches to music education. These didactic tools support the development of musical competencies, including auditory perception, rhythmic sensitivity and musical creativity, as well as cognitive, motor, social and emotional skills. The paper advocates for the active incorporation of innovative tools into pre-primary education to improve the quality of music education and promote the holistic development of children in line with the demands of modern times.
