Abstrakt: The article reveals the relevance of the problem of gender education and the development of this problem in modern Ukrainian research; gender education of older preschool children is considered as a problem of modern pedagogy. It is noted that the problem of gender education of children of older preschool age in the conditions of a preschool education institution is closely related to other types of education: national, moral, family, legal, labor, intellectual, and others; an analysis of the problem of gender education in pedagogical theory was carried out. It is shown that the preschool age is a decisive period of sex-role development, because it is in this period that the formation of gender identity is laid, which in turn connects the consciousness with the child's behavior and shapes his entire subsequent adult life. Attention is focused on the fact that in the process of gender education of older preschool children in the conditions of preschool education institutions, factors that can negatively affect the formation of genderrole identity of preschool children are singled out. A scientific analysis of the pedagogical aspects of the study of gender education of older preschool children is presented. It is noted that the complexity and multifacetedness of the problem of gender education, the high quality of gender education of older preschool children can be ensured by the joint efforts of management and methodical services, scientific institutions, practitioners and parents. It is emphasized that the prospects for further research of the problem are related to overcoming the low level of awareness of gender issues among older preschool children and leveling gender approaches to the program of training educators to work in educational institutions.
