Dancing for children is an appropriate means of expression because with free movement in rhythm the child becomes satisfied and happy. The kindergarten teacher has the task, together with the children, to look for options to make the most of all their possibilities, including dance. Music and movement are necessary in the development of children, and in kindergarten children improvisation in dance is inevitable when listening to music. The experience of music in children is achieved through cooperation with the educator, so that the educator dances with them a certain choreography in which different movements follow different themes in music. In each of his choreographies, the educator should pay attention to the characteristics of the children and which music is suitable for them. Applying dance structures in children encourages proper posture, development of motor skills, proper functioning of bodily functions and endurance. Dance is one of the most popular forms of expression for children and that is why it should be used in kindergarten. The role of educators is to encourage children to primarily enjoy dancing, but also to motivate them so that children can express their creativity and imagination. Most children of kindergarten age usually like to dance because dancing serves as a means of "ejecting energy", ie running, jumping, turning and, most importantly, developing their motor skills. The importance of applying dance to children of kindergarten age is shown on the example of the Žižula preschool institution in Šibenik
