This article examines the enrichment of moral education in preschool institutions through the integration of national values and traditions. It emphasizes that moral upbringing is not limited to teaching abstract rules of behavior but is deeply connected with cultural heritage, history, and identity. By incorporating elements of folklore, historical examples, customs, and national traditions into the educational process, preschool children can develop moral concepts in a natural and meaningful way. The article analyzes pedagogical approaches that combine modern teaching methods with the cultural content of the nation, highlighting their importance for fostering responsibility, respect, patriotism, and intercultural awareness. Prospects for further development include creating innovative methodologies, preparing educators with strong national-cultural competencies, and ensuring collaboration between family, community, and educational institutions.
