The program for preparing elderly people to organize the artistic and aesthetic activities of preschoolers is fully adapted to classes at the “University of the Third Age” or other similar structures of adult informal education and provides an increase in the pedagogical potential of elderly people. Within the framework of the course, varied types (drawing, wood carving, wickerwork, pottery, quilling, etc.) and forms of organizing artistic and creative classes and pedagogical education of elderly people have been developed, as well as teaching students and listeners how to use the acquired artistic and creative skills in freelance and promotion of their own professional services. The project is designed for a long-term result - the systematic organization of a course of informal aesthetic and pedagogical education of elderly people as an important way to mitigate the problem of social orphanage of preschool children as a result of labor migration of parents
